2、ou left.I meant_.But when I was leaving I couldnt find her anywhere.Ato do BtoCdoing Ddoing so答案B解析本句中的meant意思是“本来打算”其后应该使用不定式。当与want，wish，hope，like，hate，try，have，ought，used，need，be able，be going，be glad，mean等连用时， to代替不定式结构以避免重复。3I_the hobby of fishing as a child.Abuilt up Bset upCkept up Dtook up答案
3、D解析考查动词短语辨析。build up意为“树立，逐步建立”；set up意为“树立(榜样)；创立；建立”；keep up意为“坚持；继续；使不低落”； take up意为“从事；开始做，学着做”。 4The poet and_pianist is going to give us a talk this afternoon.Aa BtheC/ Dan答案C解析当and并列的是同一事物、同一人或同一概念时，其后面的名词前不用冠词。若在pianist前加the，则是指the poet和the pianist两个人，而题目中的the poet and pianist是指一个人，即这个人既是诗人又
4、是钢琴家。 5Hold the ladder for me!Thats_.Aall BitCall right Dright答案B解析本题易错选A或C。Thats all意思是“就这些”，表示讲话或文章的结束；而Thats all right意思是“行；可以；没关系”。Thats it为固定搭配，意思是“这正是所需要的”。Thats right意思是“对，正确”。6I think whoever makes_contributions to the company than the others should get_income.Agreater；a highestBmore greater
5、；a higherCgreater；the highestDmore greater；the higher答案C解析more不可修饰比较级，排除B和D两项。greater.than the others是用比较级形式表示最高级意义，后面也用最高级，且最高级前要用定冠词the。 7It is thought that one billion people in the world，_is half the worlds workers，earn their living by farming.Aif BthatCwhich Dwhat答案B解析句中“half the worlds workers
6、”是对“one billion people in the world”的补充说明， “that is”是 “that is to say”的省略说法，是插入语，that并不是引导非限制性定语从句的，如果在 “that is”后加个逗号则更清楚，应选B。 8Your name again，please._.Its Bell Green.AI didnt quite catch youBI couldnt quite catch youCI dont hear youDIts your name答案A解析让对方重复其姓名，是因为没有听清(表示事实)。catch此处意为“听清”。B项是干扰项，说话
7、人要表述的是“刚才没有听清”，而不是“不能听清”。 9He_the job well，but he_so careless.Ahad done；had beenBcould do；wasCcould have done；wasDhadnt done；had been答案C解析句意为：他本来能够做好那工作，但他太粗心了。答题的关键在于抓住句中的but ，but后面的句子是对过去事实的陈述，应用一般过去时；前面的句子则表示“本来能够”，是对过去事情的推断，因此应用could have done。10In my opinion，what he told us just now about the a
8、ffair simply doesnt make any_.Aidea BmeaningCsense Dpoint答案C解析make sense意为“有道理；意义清楚”。 11_is the best football player in your city?

9、his end of the boat or the other end?If you keep still，you can sit at_end.Aneither BeachCeither Dany答案C解析either表示二者选一；each表二者或二者以上中的每一个；neither表示两者都不，也不；any表示任何一个。 13Its really hot_January in Harbin now.Better take off your coat.Ain BduringCfor Dto答案C解析for在此表示“对来说”。若用in，则指在哈尔滨的一月，这与事实不符。 14What were
10、 you doing when I phoned you last night? I_my painting and was starting to take a bath.Ahave already finishedBwas finishingChad just finishedDwas going to finish答案C解析由“我要洗澡”可知昨天你打电话时“我刚刚画完”，“打电话”是过去发生的事，而“画完”在“打电话”之前，即过去的过去，故用过去完成时。15The UN should_the establishment of Iraqi government after the war，
11、I think.Atake part inBplay a leading role inCplay a role amongDplay an important part for答案B解析句意为：我认为联合国应该在伊拉克政府战后重建上起领导作用。play a role in为固定搭配，意为“在中起作用”。 .阅读理解A The Powermat Wireless Charging System for iPhone 1XA claims to wirelessly charge your iPhone in three，easy stepsplug in the Powermat，place

21、Phone，但这种可能性是很小的。由此可知，该句话的言外之意是Powermat不实用。BThe technology is great.Without it we wouldnt have been able to put a man on the moon，explore the oceans depths or eat microwave sausages.Computers have revolutionized our lives and they have the power to educate and pass on knowledge.But sometimes this po
22、wer can create more problems than it solves.Every doctor has had to try their best to calm down patients whove come into their surgery waving an Internet printout，convinced that they have some rare incurable disease，say，throat cancer.The truth is usually far more ordinary，though: they dont have thro
