英语答案

听力

单项填空

21. C 考查冠词。have a good knowledge of为固定搭配，意为“对……很熟悉；通晓”；第二空特指“语法的使用”，故用定冠词the。

22. B 考查主谓一致。a needle and thread与give为动宾关系，排除A、C两项，且当and连接的两个名词是指组合到一起的一件完整的或成套的东西，或表示同一个人或一种概念时，谓语动词要用单数形式。此题a needle and thread 作为同一件东西对待，故选B项。句意：针线给了她，但她不会把钮扣缝起来。

23. A 考查词组辨析。句意：我盯着一切_____第一次看到它似的。as if意为“好像、仿佛”，符合语境。even if意为“尽管，即使”；in case意为“以防；万一”；now that意为“既然、由于”均不符合语境。

24. B 考查非谓语动词。judging from/by …置于句首作状语，v.-ing形式不受主语的限制，构成独立成分。此处表示“从他脸上的表情判断”。

25. D 考查动词词义辨析。此处表达“……他坐着埋头看杂志。”故选D项，(be) buried in(＝bury oneself in) 意为“埋头于；专心于”。

26. D 考查并列句。句意：他强烈渴望拥有一个属于自己的家，因为他一直和我祖母住在一起。for在此处引导并列句，表示补充说明原因，因此选D项。

27. D 考查动词时态及语态。句意为：——我担心自己不能一个人去英国。——不要担心了，你一到机场就会有向导来接你的。第二句中主语you和meet之间为被动关系，且由语境可知应该用将来时，故选D项。

28. D 考查副词词义辨析。句意：马丁病了，但是，________，我认为他希望明天和我们一起去。anyhow意为“即使如此，无论如何”，符合语境。therefore意为“因此”；instead意为“代替、反而”； otherwise意为“否则，要不然”。

29. B 考查情态动词。句意：——肯定是那个调皮的孩子在外面大叫。——不可能是他，因为他已经去上学了。由“because he has gone to school”可知此处表示强烈的否定推测，应该用can’t；mustn’t 在英语中不用于表示推测，它表示的是“禁止‘不允许”。

30. B 考查动词短语辨析。句意：我听说吉姆和露西之间爆发了一次争吵。break up意为“解体、破裂、打碎”；break down意为“出故障；失败；分解；瓦解；崩溃”；break out意为“突然发生；爆发（不用于被动语态）”；break through意为“突破；（在科学研究上）有重大发现”；根据句意可知选B项。

31. A 考查倒装。地点状语位于句首时，句子要完全倒装；且时态为一般现在时，故可知选A项。

32. A 考查形容词辨析。句意：很明显，一个人是不能举起大象的。obvious意为“明显的、显而易见的。”violent意为“暴力的”；harmful意为“有害的”；content意为“满足的”。

33. C 考查非谓语动词作宾语补足语。“see +sb. + doing”意为“看见某人正在做某事”，其中doing为现在分词作宾补。

34. D 考查定语从句。whose用作定语，可用来修饰人或物，在此处修饰car。句意：那人车坏了，大家都跑过去帮忙。

35. A考查情景交际。句意：——今天多么糟糕，我没通过驾驶证的考试。——打起精神来！你可以再去试一试。cheer up意为“(使)高兴起来，(使)振作起来”，符合语境。；well done意为“做得好的”；go ahead意为“干吧，说吧，用吧”；congratulations意为“祝贺”。

完型填空

36. D 由文中的由门到窗户以及天突然由晴到雨以及Sangita想去玩的急切心理可推出，她应该是跑向窗边。

37. B 根据下文得知，Sangita原本计划出去玩，但瞬间下起雨来，微笑由此退去，故选择smile才能吻合上下文。

38. A 由行文可知这场雨让Sangita很不开心，故她很不高兴地脱掉鞋子重新坐回原处，故sadly最佳。

39. D 母亲应该是问发生了什么，故选D项。

44. D 根据上下文得知，Sangita年幼，加之路滑泥泞，她拉着妈妈的手不松，故选择held on。

47. C 从上文得知Sangita注意力集中在路边商店，突然间风将雨伞吹翻，故选择Suddenly最佳。

48. D 从下文得知，不经意间，雨伞被风吹翻，下文也有暗示。turned inside out吹翻。

49. A 根据上文，出门前母亲已经让Sangita穿上雨衣，故即使雨伞被吹翻，雨衣也会保护Sangita。protected保护；avoided避免；prevented阻止；saved挽救。

50. B 根据下文得知，清新的草，还有玫瑰花香弥漫在空气中，这是他们雨中之行的最大收获。filled充满、弥漫。

51. C 从上文得知，母女俩在雨中漫步，尽享雨中情趣，故选择wandering。

W: Good morning, everyone. I’d like to introduce our guest to you, John Watson. We’re delighted to have John with us today to share his views on protecting the environment.

M: Thank you, Agenda. It’s nice to be here. When I was seven years old, back in the 1940’s, my father bought a large piece of land in eastern Australia. The excellent thing about it was it was completely natural. But this kind of country doesn’t exist any more.

W: What do you mean by that?

M: Well, let me explain. We went to live there when I was 10. When I was 12, the foxes and cats appeared. And by the time I was 14, there were no native animals left.

W: You mean, that within 4 years, all the native animals had gone?

M: That’s exactly what I mean. But it took a while for people to realise what was going on.

W: So you’re saying that it was the cats and the foxes that killed off the native animals?

M: Completely right! But back in the 1970’s people didn’t realise it. Even though Australia was losing wildlife faster than the rest of the world combined, people were blaming the farmers and miners, but not their lovely little cats! And what’s more, they didn’t want to know!
