PART IV GRAMMAR & VOCABULARY (15 MIN)Directions: There are thirty sentences in this section. Beneath each sentence there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Choose one word or phrase that best completes the sentence.
1. Which of the following italicized phrases is INCORRECT? A.This house is three times the size of that one. B.My cup is twice bigger than yours.
C.The dictionary is five times more expensive. D.Our factory is as twice big as theirs.
正确答案:D
解析:考查倍数表达法。常见倍数表达结构有“A+be+倍数+the+计量名词(length,height,depth,size,etc.)+of B”,“A+be+倍数+形容词比较级+than B”或“A+be+倍数+as+形容词原级+as B”等,A、B、C表达均符合规则,只有D错误,twice应放在as之前。 知识模块:语法与词汇
2. Which of the following italicized parts is used as an object complement? A.He is often heard reading English. B.I wish you to give me a hand. C.The old man was found weak. D.Dad had bought me a new book.
正确答案:B
解析:A、C中斜体部分属于主语补足语,它通常位于主语之前或谓语动词被动语态的过去分词之后;D中斜体部分为直接宾语;只有选项B中的不定式作宾语you的补足语。 知识模块:语法与词汇
3. All the following participles(分词)function as an adverb EXCEPT A.She is an amazing tall lady. B.It is burning hot today.
C.He felt his heart beating wildly. D.It’s an exceeding interesting novel.
正确答案:C
解析:考查分词的用法。A、B、D的分词都用来修饰紧跟其后的形容词,表示“很,十分”,充当副词。只有C为“主语+谓语+宾语+宾语补足语”句式,其中beating作heart的宾语补足语,答案为C。 知识模块:语法与词汇
4. Which of the following sentences is INCORRECT?
A.Today’s temperature is higher than yesterday’s. B.These are John’s and Tom’s desks. C.She is the two children’ mother.
D.This is England and America’s problem.
正确答案:C
解析:考查所有格。常见的所有格有“’s”(如A)和“of+名词”(如C)两种形式,其中A省略了重复的temperature,完整表达应为yesterday’s temperature。当表示各自的所有关系时,名词末尾均需要加上’s,如B则意为“这些是约翰和汤姆各自的书桌”。而当表示他们共同的所有关系时,则仅需在最后一词末尾加’s,如D则意为“这是英美共同的问题”。只有C错误,虽然当一般情况下,复形名词末尾仅需加上’即可表示名词所有格,但在不规则复形名词之后,则需加上’s来表示,即正确句型为Sheis the two children’s mother. 知识模块:语法与词汇
5. Joan said she ______ that there was something wrong with the machine. A.had found B.has found C.finds
D.would find
正确答案:A
解析:考查从句的时态。主句是一般过去时,而从句中的动作发生在主句的动作之前,因此要用过去完成时,A项had found正确。 知识模块:语法与词汇
6. Susan doesn’t want to work right away because she thinks that if she ______ a job, she probably wouldn’t be able to see her friends very often.
A.has to get B.had got
C.could have got D.were to get
正确答案:D
解析:根据句意,苏珊目前没有工作,句中的假设在近期内不会发生,因此要用表示将来情况的虚拟语气should或were to引出,选D项were to get。A项has to get,不用于虚拟语气。B项hadgot是对过去的虚拟,C项could have got不能用于虚拟语气的条件句中。 知识模块:语法与词汇
7. He appreciated ______ the chance to deliver his thesis in the annual symposium on Comparative Literature.
A.having given
B.to have been given C.to have given D.having been given
正确答案:D
解析:appreciate后面必须接名词或动名词,He与give逻辑上的存在被动关系,故选D项havingbeen given。 知识模块:语法与词汇
8. Which of the following sentences is INCORRECT? A.He dare not tell her the truth. B.She can be not so silly.
C.He doesn’t dare to tell her the truth. D.She can not be so silly.
正确答案:B
解析:考查句子的否定形式。dare既可作助动词,也可作实义动词。作助动词用时,其否定形式是将not置于其后;作实义动词时,则用do/does/did not置于其前,因此A、C正确。当句子既有助动词,又有be动词时,其否定形式是将not放在助动词与be动词之间,因此B不正确。 知识模块:语法与词汇
9. He ordered that everything ______ kept in its original form before his aunt left.
A.would be B.must be C.ought to be D.should be
正确答案:D 解析:虚拟语气。that从句在command,demand,desire,insist,order,request,suggest等表示要求或命令的引述动词后充当宾语从句时,或是在desire,order,proposal,suggestion等表示要求或命令的名词后充当同位语从句或补语从句时,从句中的谓语动词应使用“should+动词原形”,其中should可以省略。本句中的that从句在order后充当宾语从句,故答案为D。 知识模块:语法与词汇
10. I’m glad that your story ______ have won the first prize. A.could B.should C.might D.must
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查情态动词should的用法,should除了表示“应该,必须”,还表惊讶或遗憾,意为“竟然,居然”。题中表达了“我”对“小说赢得头奖”既开心又惊讶的心情,因此用should最合适,其他选项Could,might,must均不表示惊讶语气。故答案为B。 知识模块:语法与词汇
11. Railway is to a country ______ blood vessel is to a man’s body.
A.what B.as C.that D.like
正确答案:A
解析:语法结构。what可以作为一个关系代词,表示“就像……一样”.用于句型X is to Y whatX1 is to Y1,表示“X之于Y正如X1之于Y1”,因此答案为A。 知识模块:语法与词汇
12. ______ James wanted to go camping with his classmates at the weekend, he had to stay behind to help his mom do the housework.
A.As much B.Much as
C.Much although D.Though much
正确答案:B
解析:让步状语从句多由although和though引导,当把让步成分(形容词、副词、动词)置于句首时,此时用连词as或though,而although无此用法,答案为B项Much as。 知识模块:语法与词汇
13. They were caught in the forest, and ______ made matter worse was that it kept raining cats and dogs.
A.it B.which C.what D.that
正确答案:C
解析:空格处需填入一个关系代词既引导主语从句,又在从句中作主语,故选what。it不是关系代词,which和that不能在主语从句充当主语。 知识模块:语法与词汇
14. All the flights ______ because of the snowstorm, we had to take the train instead.
A.were canceled B.had been canceled C.having canceled
D.having been canceled
正确答案:D
解析:逗号前后句子无连词连接,因此前半句应用独立主格结构作状语,故排除A、B。由于动作发生在过去,且flights与cancel存在被动关系,因此用完
成式被动语态,答案为D。 知识模块:语法与词汇
15. Tom’s wife will always stand by his side, ______ what may. A.come B.coming C.came
D.having come
正确答案:A
解析:come what may意为“无论发生什么情况”,是一固定用法,相当于no matter whathappens。在这一用法中,主谓必须倒装,其中come用动词原形,may有时可用will代替。 知识模块:语法与词汇
