“FamilyEducation”.YoushouldbaseyourcompositionontheoutlinegiveninChinesebelow:1.

父母是孩子最好的老師；2.

父母的言行影響孩子；

參考答案

1.B解析：本題考查固定搭配。havetrouble(in)doingsth.“做某事有困難”。句意為：有時孩子們在分清故事和現(xiàn)實方面會有困難，相信故事中的事確實存在。

2.C

3.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。

4.A

5.C解析：much用在句中修飾比較級better。

6.B

7.B

8.C解析：本題考查詞義的辨別。rise出現(xiàn)，put放下，raise提起，arise升高。

9.A解析：句意：她昏倒了。給她臉上澆些水，或許她會醒過來。本題考查詞組辨析。comeround：過訪，繞道而來，蘇醒過來；comeback：回來，恢復(fù)；comeagain：再說一遍，重復(fù)一遍；comeout：出來，傳出。

10.D

11.Dapplyto應(yīng)用；applyfor申請

12.B解析：本題考查固定搭配的用法。當(dāng)否定詞位于句前時，得出結(jié)論應(yīng)用reach/achievein/arriveatconclusion，故選B。

13.B解析：表示否定的副詞前置于句首，句子需要不完全倒裝，即助動詞提前。其余選項均可排除。除Notuntil外還有never，seldom，rarely，seldom，no，little，hardly，innotime等否定副詞或結(jié)構(gòu)放在句首時，句子需要部分倒裝。

14.D

15.C所有的學(xué)生都去看了昨天的魔術(shù)表演。它太令人不可思議了。這里主要考查的是動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞的不同用法。Sth．bedoing表示某一事物令人怎么樣。Sb．bedone表示某人處于某種狀態(tài)。例：Theletteristouching．這封信令人感動。

Iammoved．我很感動。

16.A【句子大意】新打字機的價格是二手貨的三倍。

17.B

18.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。

19.B解析：cuts“裁減”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱點”；imports“進口”，故正確選項為B。
