　　1．For the next two hours she was________the film, so she didn't notice what happened around her.

　　A．engaged in B．busy with

　　C．absorbed in

　　D．occupied with

　　答案：C　考查短語辨析。句意：在此后的兩個小時里，她在專心看電影，因而沒有注意到周圍所發生的事情。be engaged in“從事”；be busy with“忙于”；be absorbed in“全神貫注于”；be occupied with“忙于”。C項符合語義。

　　A．were to blame

　　B．were to blamed

　　C．was to blame

　　D．was to be blamed

　　答案：C　be to blame表示“應該受責備”，從結構分析主語應當為the boy，因此選C。

　　3．________to sunlight for too much time, as the doctors say, will do harm to one's skin.

　　A．Being exposed

　　B．Having exposed

　　C．Exposed

　　D．After being exposed

　　答案：A　考查非謂語動詞。從題干可知，句子的謂語“will do”沒有主語，而選項B、C和D均不能在句中作主語，它們可以在句中作狀語，故均可排除。而選項A為動名詞的被動式，符合語境。

　　4．We all feel it is Jack as well as his wife that________for their son's bad performance at school.

　　A．are to blame

　　B．is to be blamed

　　C．are to be blamed

　　D．is to blame

　　答案：D　句意：我們都感覺是杰克和他的妻子應該對他們兒子在學校的惡劣行為負責。賓語從句是強調句，強調主語，根據主謂一致原則可知，謂語動詞應用單數。be to blame意為“應負責任”。

　　5．The police are searching everywhere for Mr James, who they think is________to the crime.

　　A．linked

　　B．concerned

　　C．united

　　D．mixed

　　答案：A　be linked to“與……有關”；be concerned with“與……有關”；united“聯合的；團結的”；be mixed up in“與……有牽連”。

　　A．to be discussed

　　B．to being discussed

　　C．to discuss

　　D．to discussing

　　答案：A　考查動詞短語pay attention to與虛擬語氣在具體語境中的運用。worth paying attention to為后置定語修飾名詞problem，而suggest表示“建議”的時候，從句中的謂語動詞用虛擬語氣(should＋)動詞原形。

　　7．He is in great need of money, but he has________our help.

　　A．rejected

　　B．reputed

　　C．ignored

　　D．overlooked

　　答案：A　考查動詞辨析。句意：他很需要錢，但他拒絕了我們的幫助。reject“拒絕”；repute“認為”；ignore“忽視”；overlook“忽略”。

　　8．In my opinion, what he told us just now about the affair simply doesn't make any________.

　　A．idea

　　B．meaning

　　C．sense

　　D．point

　　A．does the chief editor come will it be

　　B．the chief editor comes will it be

　　10．I'm very________about expressing my opinions in public in case I may make mistakes.

　　A．cautious

　　B．confused

　　C．delighted

　　D．enthusiastic

　　答案：A　cautious“小心的，謹慎的”。句意：為了防止犯錯誤，我在公開場合下表達自己的觀點時，非常謹慎。confused“困惑的”；delighted“高興的”；enthusiastic“熱情的”。

　　—It's Bell Green.

　　A．I didn't quite catch you

　　B．I couldn't quite catch you

　　C．I don't hear you

　　D．It's your name

　　答案：A　讓對方重復所說的話，是因為沒有聽清楚(表示、事實)。catch此處意為“聽清”。B項是干擾項，說話人要表述的是“剛才沒有聽清”，而不是“不能聽清”。

　　12．________you take part in physical activity________be able to keep fit and stay healthy.

　　A．Only if; you will

　　B．Only if; will you

　　C．Unless; you will

　　D．Unless; will you

　　答案：B　考查部分倒裝。句意：只有參加體育鍛煉，你才能保持身體健康。“only＋狀語從句”放于句首時，主句要進行部分倒裝。此處是“only＋if引導的條件狀語從句”，故主句須用倒裝形式，因而排除A、C兩項，unless不符合句意，故排除D而選B。

　　13．The view he________at the sales meeting last night sounds a little reasonable.

　　A．took down

　　B．put forward

　　C．took off

　　D．made up

　　答案：B　put forward“提出”；take down“寫下，記下”；take off“脫下(衣服等)”；make up“編造，組成”。

　　14．________its low cost, the appeal of iron as a building material lies in its strength, its resistance to fire, and its potential to span vast areas.

　　A．Other than

　　B．Apart from

　　C．Except for

　　D．Rather than

　　答案：B　句意：除了低成本外，對作為建筑材料的鐵的需求在于其自身的強度、耐火性以及在其他廣泛領域中的應用潛能。apart from在此處相當于介詞besides，符合語義。other than“除了”；except for“除……以外”；rather than“而不是”，均不符合語義。

　　15．—________to the sun, the flower will become dry soon.

　　—What you said does make________.

　　A．Exposed; sense

　　B．Exposing; sense

　　C．Exposed; senses

　　D．Exposing; a sense

　　答案：A　句意：——暴露在日光下，這花兒很快就會被曬干。——你說的話的確有道理。第一空expose與flower之間是動賓關系，所以應用過去分詞作狀語；第二空make sense為固定用法，表示“有道理，講得通”。

　　Ⅳ.完形填空

　　Many adults see teens as energetic. Many of us see ourselves as proud. This thinking__1__many adults and us to have the idea that if we can't handle school or__2__life well, we are just not trying hard.

　　文章大意：成年人認為青年是精力充沛的，我們青年也以這點而自豪。這種想法就會使成年人和我們認為如果我們沒有把學業和生活處理好的話，我們就是沒努力。這種觀點對嗎？

　　1．A.makes

　　B．forces

　　C．causes

　　D．intends

　　答案：C　空處動詞和后面的帶to的不定式構成搭配，由此可排除A，make后要求跟不帶to的不定式作賓補；cause sb.to do sth.“促使某人做某事”，符合語境；盡管force可以構成這種復合結構，但“迫使某人有某種想法”和語境不符合。

　　2．A.still

　　B．even

　　C．just

　　D．yet

　　答案：B　上文的school與下文的life之間存在遞進關系，故選用even。

　　3．A.true

　　B．real

　　C．wrong D．false

　　答案：A　由下文可知，作者認為這種想法不見得是正確的、符合客觀實際的。true表示“符合事實，是真的而不是假的或捏造的”，real表示“人或事物真實存在的，而不是想象的或虛構的”。

　　4．A.while

　　B．when

　　C．then

　　D．how

　　答案：B　語境“我正要離開教室，恰在此時突然感覺像是背部抽筋了。”考查“...be doing sth....when...”這一典型句式，其中when是并列連詞，意為“就在此時(突然)”，故選B。

　　5．A.looked

　　B．sounded

　　C．appeared

　　D．felt

　　答案：D　“我”突然感覺背上好像抽筋了，feel like固定詞組“感覺像，覺得好像是……，想要”。

　　6．A.face

　　B．hope

　　C．weight

　　D．direction

　　答案：C　由上文可知，幾天不吃飯“體重”當然下降。

　　7．A.hanging

　　B．holding

　　C．changing

　　D．dressing

　　8．A.In fact

　　B．In addition

　　C．In disorder

　　D．In general

　　答案：B　更糟糕的是，作者開始失眠。根據篇章結構，此處應為表遞進關系的短語。in addition“另外”符合行文邏輯；in fact“事實上”；in disorder“混亂”；in general“通常，一般而言”。

　　9．A.light

　　B．shut

　　C．open

　　D．heavy

　　答案：D　由常識可知，睡得少會感覺眼皮很重，故用heavy。

　　答案：D　這樣拼命工作，一旦作者上了理想的大學，就能支付得起所需費用。afford“付得起(……費用)”。

　　16．A.amount B．set

　　C．kind

　　D．number

　　答案：A　我現在因病早已不能做校內外的大量的工作。the amount of...意為“……的數量”，這里指“工作的量(大)”，不可數，因此不能用number。

　　17．A.suitable

　　B．impressive

　　C．believable

　　D．usual

　　答案：B　我病得這么重，申請表再吸引人又有什么用呢？impressive“有吸引力的”，與上文does good前后相照應。

　　18．A.reason

　　B．idea

　　C．point

　　D．tip

　　答案：C　如果不能享受結果，“我”做這些工作又有什么意義呢？point“意義，道理”；reason“原因”；idea“想法”；tip“末端，建議”。
