41、es”。limit限制;locate位于;circle圈出;expand扩大。2A.pleases BorganizesCdraws Dbenefits答案C解析作为一个旅游胜地,“吸引”游客必为其制胜的功能,draw有“吸引”的意思。please使人满意;organize组织;benefit使人受益,三项均不合句意。3A.villages BforeignersCstudents Dlocals答案D解析此处考查游客的来源,要求较强的逻辑性。根据下文提到回避周末或者学校放假时间来观看,所以当地人利用周末来玩的可能性最大,选D。4A.shortest BbusiestClongest Dbig
42、gest答案A解析周末和假期游客多,等候的时间肯定要长,而这里特别指出了要回避这两个时间,为的是等候的时间短一些,故选A项。5A.time BweekCday Dyear答案D解析根据“the period”知,此处考查的是一个时间段,所以首先排除A;圣诞前后应该是一年中的一个时间段,不可能是一天或一周,所以也排除B、C。6A.leave BplanCarrive Dbook答案C解析该部分提示游客来访时尽量来得早点儿,避免在受欢迎的景点发生游客拥挤现象。leave(离开),plan(计划),book(预订),都不符合句意,故选C项。7A.after BuntilCpast Dbefore答案
43、D解析该题逻辑性强,为了避开拥挤的时间段,以便有足够的时间自己游玩,所以应该提前一个小时到达,故选before,其他选项不合语境。8A.avoid BbuildCbreak Dcombine答案B解析提前一小时到达游乐园,是为了回避在最受欢迎的景点遇到游客拥挤的现象。before crowds build可指“在游客扎堆现象形成前”。avoid意为“回避”;break意为“破裂”;combine意为“结合;使联合”,均与句意不符,也不符合前面的逻辑。9A.sells BshowsCsends Dcollects答案A解析该段谈购票的问题。该句主语为迪斯尼乐园,为售票方,所以选A。show(出示
44、;展览);send(发送;派遣);collect(收集),都不符合文意。10A.reserve BkeepCcopy Dprint答案D解析这里指迪斯尼乐园在网上售票,为了防止造假,应该是不允许游客在自己家里“print(打印)”。reserve和keep都有“储备,保存”的意思;copy(复制),均不符合逻辑。11A.in advance Bin caseCin order Din turn 答案A解析订好的票需要邮寄给你,这需要一定的时日,所以要尽可能提前(in advance)预订。in case万一;in order有条理;in turn轮流,三项均不合句意。12A.ought Bmu
45、stCwill Dmay答案D解析此处需要一情态动词,意思吻合最关键,这里表示除了网上购票外,还“可以”通过其他途径购票,所以选may最合适。ought to应该;must必须;will将要,都不符合句意。13A.opened BreopenedCclosed Dreduced答案B解析根据下文“经过两年维修和重建”来看,此处需要“重新营业”这个意思,故A、C、D三项是错误的。14A.possibilities BchangesCdevelopments Deffects答案D解析possibility可能性;change变化;development进展,发展;三个单词在和show搭配时均不能
46、体现维修的目的。此处谈Space Mountain两年维修的目的是为了提升show effect“展览的效果”,即它的可参观性。15A.when BsinceCas Dbecause of答案C解析此处建议带小朋友的游客尽量在早晨去Fantasyland,后面是提出该建议的理由,因为是比较明显的理由,所以用as。because of不能接句子;when引导时间状语从句;since是“既然”的意思。16A.unluckily BunexpectedlyCespecially Dnormally答案C解析上文提到有几个吸引游客的景点,此处专门提示其中最好的两个地方,所以用especially。un
47、luckily不幸地;unexpectedly出乎意料地;normally正常地。17A.rows BwaitsCplaces Dpassages答案B解析此处指这个景点客容量较小,很容易出现游客扎堆现象,这样就很可能会等很长时间,所以用wait(名词,表示“等待的时间”),且与上文吻合。18A.If not BIn a wordCAs a result DWhats more答案A解析此处需要一承上启下的转折,if not意为“如果不”,指如果不参观前面的景点,那么就。其他选项起不到此作用,in a word总而言之;as a result结果;whats more而且。19A.where BthatChow Dwhen答案D解析where引导地点状语从句;how一般表方式。这里是时间状语从句,在刚开门时,直奔Adventureland and New Orleans Square。20A.now BandCjust Dthen答案D解析最后一部分讲了参观各景点的顺序,最后一句为最后一处景点,所以用“then(然后)”最合适。- 12 - 版权所有高考资源网
