六、作文(1題)66.Directions:Forthispart,youareallowed30minutestowriteacompositiononthetopic"HowIFinanceMyCollegeEducation".Youshouldwriteatleast120words,andbaseyourcompositionontheoutlinegiveninChinesebelow：1.上大學(xué)的費用（tuitionandfees.可以通過多種途徑解決；2.哪種途徑適合于我（說明理由）。

參考答案

1.A解析：shape意為“(女人的)姿態(tài)，身段”；form意為“形狀，形態(tài)”；appearance意為“外表，樣子”；body意為“身體”。由題意知應(yīng)選A。

2.A

3.B

4.Bsetout意為“出發(fā)，動身”。

5.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意為“特別地”。

6.B解析：takemeasures意思為“采取措施”，本句應(yīng)用被動語態(tài)。

7.D解析：本題考查動詞搭配。doone'shomework“做作業(yè)”；makemistakes“犯錯誤”。句意為：做作業(yè)，還要保證別犯錯誤。

8.B解析：theeducationsystem是主語，謂語動詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)；thedesiredresults意為“期望的結(jié)果”。

9.C

10.D

11.A本題考查祈使句型：

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：Mary，到這里來，其余的人待在原處。根據(jù)句子的結(jié)構(gòu)可判斷出這是個祈使句。所以要用動詞原形開頭。Mary在句中不是

主語，而是“呼語”。

12.C

13.D解析：從句中的問句主謂不倒裝。從句的時態(tài)隨主句。我想知道那輛車的價格。

14.A解析：本題考虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the廣引導(dǎo)的從句中，謂語動詞應(yīng)用“should+認”，should可以省去，再結(jié)合語態(tài)，故A項正確。本句大意為：他們要求所有的必要文件都必須在月底之前交到校長辦公室。

15.A解析：反問疑問句的陳述部分是肯定式時，疑問部分用否定式。以letme或letus起始的反問疑問句，疑問部分用willyou或won'tyou，所以選項A是正確的。

16.D解析：forgetdoingsth．忘了已做過某事。注意區(qū)別forgettodosth。忘了而沒有做某事。

17.A

18.D解析：which修飾非限定性定語從句，指代前邊一句話。本題涉及句法知識——簡單句、并列句和復(fù)合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(簡單句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(復(fù)合句)

19.B

20.A【句子大意】新打字機的價格是二手貨的三倍。

21.那女孩很像她媽媽總是樂呵呵的。那女孩很像她媽媽，總是樂呵呵的。

22.NocomputernetworkiscomparabletoInternetforpracticalapplication.

23.她決心成為一名歌手，不管可能會遇到什么困難。

24.小男孩找不到了他的父母十分擔(dān)心他的安全。小男孩找不到了，他的父母十分擔(dān)心他的安全。

25.據(jù)說當(dāng)兩個工會為三項工作爭執(zhí)的時候，解決爭端的辦法是給每個工會兩項工作。這就意味著有33%的人員配置是多余的，勞動生產(chǎn)率比實際降低33%。

26.C

27.我們對自己了解得越多就越容易充分發(fā)揮自己的潛力。我們對自己了解得越多，就越容易充分發(fā)揮自己的潛力。

28.計算機技術(shù)的發(fā)展將對工業(yè)生產(chǎn)過程產(chǎn)生重大影響.haveanimpacton:Heavysmokingwillhaveanimpactonbirth.

inthetimeof(during)(2)不使用縮寫形式等過于口語化的字詞①一般不應(yīng)使用縮寫形式，如：不應(yīng)使用"itdidn't”，而應(yīng)使用“itdidnot”；不應(yīng)使用"they've”，而應(yīng)使用"theyhave"等。②一般不應(yīng)使用表示猶豫不決的短語，如：er，um，well，youknow...，andsoonsoforth，andetc．等(3)避免中文式的“鋪墊”“鋪墊”、“迂回”或“畫龍點睛”等寫作方法在中文短文寫作中無可非議，但不能使用在英語短文寫作中。例如，中文信件的開頭方式通常會是“你好!前日收到你的來信，深感欣慰。好久沒有給你寫信了。不知你的……如何?”等，此類句式不應(yīng)在英語信函短文寫作開頭處使用。原因是，此種方式會浪費篇幅?？荚囍杏⒄Z短文寫作有字數(shù)限制，寫得太長同樣會被扣分。在進行信函短文寫作時，考生應(yīng)注意以下方面：(1)短文寫作情景分析中文情景寫作中需要直接表述和需要拓展表達的內(nèi)容。(2)確定信函短文寫作的謀篇布局信函短文寫作的謀篇布局的含義為信函寫作格式。信函短文寫作采用的是英語信函寫作中的“混合式”。(3)進行語言轉(zhuǎn)換和拓展(4)信函短文合成61．參考范文DearClubManager,
