11.Jenny got to the park gate when the bell rang that day.But she was late.
A.often B.almost C.always D.lately E.never
选B。从原句中可看出句子大意是“那天詹妮快到公园门口时铃响了。”故用almost,此处用nearly也可以。
12.When Mr.Fat got through the line,the speaker just told him to .
A.hold on B.stand up C.come around
D.lie down E.have a look
选A。此句意为“菲特先生接通电话后,说话的人只是叫他别挂断”。hold on是打电话用语,意为“别挂断、等一等”。
13.—Are you from America?
—No,none of us.
A.each B.both C.either D.all E.neither
选D。根据答语中的none of us可推断出问句中应用all。all指“(三者以上)都”,none指“(三者以上)都不”。
14.—Can you wait for minutes?
—No,we must hurry up,we have time left.
A.a little;few B.few;a little C.a few;little
D.a little;little E.few;a few
选C。a few和a little都可以修饰名词,表示数量,但a few修饰可数名词(minutes),a little修饰不可数名词(time)。
15.—How long can the book be ?
—For two weeks.
A.borrowed B.lent C.kept D.got E.taken
选C。此处的kept表示“借(书)”,属延续性动词。A、B中的 borrow和lend也都可以表示“借”,但都是非延续性动词。
B)选择能够替换划线部分词语的最佳选项。
16.—Why hasn't she arrived till now?
—I am afraid she missed the train.
A.like B.hope C.saw D.want E.guess
选E。答语中的I am afraid在此处有猜测的含义,故须用E项的 guess替换。I am afraid还可委婉地表示“不”。例如:I'm afraid you are wrong /you can't do that.
17.Please fill your stockings as soon as possible.
A.now and then B.at this time
C.in a moment D.quickly E.if you can
选D。as soon as possible意为“尽快”,故可用D项的quickly替换。
18.I was reading a newspaper when my brother got in.
A.came into the room B.walked to the house C.moved in
D.looked in E.ran away
选A。get in意为“进来”,故可用come into the room替换。如去掉宾语the room,则不能用介词into,应用in,即come in。注意B项的walk to the house是指“朝房子那边走过去”,而不是“走进房子”。
19.—Do you know who has taken the baby pan away?
—I am all ears.Tell me,please.
A.have known it B.am listening C.have no idea
D.have taken it away E.am a doctor
选B。be all ears表示专心地听,故选B项。
20.I've spent more or less a year catching up with the others.
A.more than B.about C.nearly D.very much E.less than.
选B。more or less意为“或多或少”,相当于about,C项的nearly是“几乎、将近”的意思,故不能选。
