六、作文(1題)66.假設(shè)你的朋友叫楊立，是優(yōu)秀學(xué)生。校報請你寫一篇介紹他的短文。他的基本情況是：現(xiàn)在讀高二，是班長，是全班學(xué)習(xí)最好的;最喜歡學(xué)習(xí)英語和數(shù)學(xué);愛好體育，課余常踢足球，還是學(xué)校游泳隊隊員;經(jīng)常幫助別人。注意：(1)基本情況不可遺漏;(2)要有標(biāo)題;(3)詞數(shù)為100左右。

參考答案

1.B解析：本題考查動詞固定搭配的用法。deprive后常接介詞of，表示剝奪什么。

2.D解析：本題測試形容詞辨析。四個選項的意思分別是“普通的”，“清楚的”，“正義的”，“僅僅的”。根據(jù)句意，D項正確。本句大意為：他僅僅把它作為一個細(xì)節(jié)來描述，而我卻認(rèn)為它是這個計劃中最重要的部分。

3.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。

4.C

5.Blaunch為“發(fā)射”講；其余為干擾項。

6.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。

7.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”。

8.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”。

9.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。

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

11.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。

12.B

13.D

14.A本句考查兩個并列句之間的連接的詞。題干的意思是：“氣球能夠浮在空氣中正如船能夠浮在海面上一樣?！痹谒膫€選項中，只有A項的justas有“正如，猶如”的意思。故選A。

15.B解析：cuts“裁減”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱點”；imports“進(jìn)口”，故正確選項為B。

16.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(rèn)”，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。

17.D

18.B解析：encourage：鼓勵、鼓舞；discourage：使泄氣；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根據(jù)句意只有選B。

19.B

20.C解析：notonly…butalso連接主語時，謂語動詞根據(jù)就近原則由butalso后的成分來決定。TomandMary是兩個人，所以動詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

21.說到學(xué)英語，我越學(xué)越有興趣。AstoEnglishstudy,themoreIlearnthemoreinterestedIget/themoreinterestIhaveinit.

22.聽到這個好消息，他簡直無法相信自己的耳朵。Hecouldn’tbelievehisearswhenhearingthegoodnews./Whenhearingthegoodnews,hecouldn’tbelievehisears.

23.美國綠色建筑協(xié)會是一家非盈利工業(yè)組織，鼓勵建造注重環(huán)境的建筑物，并將于今秋引入鳥類安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn)作為其環(huán)境認(rèn)證過程的一部分。

24.OnbehalfofmycompanyI’dliketoinviteyoutothedinnerpartytobeheldatseventonight.Weshouldbegladifyoucouldcome./Iwishyouwouldbepresent.

26.國慶節(jié)快到了，很多人在忙著準(zhǔn)備去旅游。NationalDayisdrawingnear/roundthecornerandmanypeoplearebusypreparingforatrip.

27.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。

28.IwishIhadkeptupmyFrench.

29.繼棲息地減少之后，這種撞擊是導(dǎo)致遷徙鳥類死亡的第二大原因，據(jù)估計死亡數(shù)量可達(dá)十億。

30.聲音和噪音都有副作用，但是最重要的是人是否能夠控制住聲音。

31.61．在描寫文中，要把方位按一定的順序描寫清楚，可用一些方位詞如：infrontof，behind，
