30、w I Change”为题,写一篇短文,描述你这三年里前后的变 化。写作要点包括外貌、兴趣爱好、行为习惯等方面。 写作要求:1词数在 80 个左右(开头已经给出,不计人总词数); 2短文中不能出现校名和人名,否则不得分; 3所给的写作要点都必须用上;紧扣主题,适当发挥。 How I Change My life has changed a lot in thePast three years_ _ _ _ Yours, Amy 【答案与解析】【答案与解析】 I. 单项选择。单项选择。 1 C。 考察形容词词义辨析。 selfish“自私的”; patient“有耐心的”; humorous“幽
31、默的”; generous“慷慨的”。 根据语境“他的确有一副严肃的脸孔,但内心却是很。”和句中的but可知,严肃和幽默是对应的。故 选C。 2C。考察five-year-old作前置定语的用法。five-year-old这类复合词可以用作形容词,意为“五岁的”,表 示计量的名词总是用单数形式。这类结构通常用作前置定语,不用作表语。 3C。考察频度副词的使用。句意:这个妇女很忙,所以她很少看电视。often“经常”;always“总是”; seldom“很少”;almost“几乎”。故选C。 4B。考察词义辨析。通过答语中的Take it easy“放松”和常识可知,“考试前我真的很紧张”,用
32、形容词 nervous表达。 5B。句意:你还记得那次事故吗,丹尼?当然,我永远不会忘记,尽管发生这么长时间了。 由题意可知这里表示转折,应该用even though。 6C。of是介词,其后应该跟v.-ing形式,因此答案为C。 7C。句意:我过去常常早晨读书,但现在我习惯于睡觉前读书。“过去常常做某事”应该表示为“used to do sth”;“习惯于做某事”应该表示为“be used to doing sth”,因此答案为C。 8B。考察形容词辨析。active“积极的”;shy“害羞的”;honest“正直的”;outgoing“外向的”。由后半句 句意“但是现在她喜欢结识新朋友并且
33、喜欢和他们交谈”可知, 前半句意思应为“萨莉过去很害羞”。 故选B。 9C。由I cant see the blackboard clearly“我看不清黑板”可推知明明站在那儿的原因是他“前面”坐着两个 高个子男孩,故答案选C,意为“在的前面”。 10B。考察动词短语辨析。由题意“我做饭的时候请你照顾我的孩子好吗”可知用take care of“照顾;照 看”。take out of取出;take part in参加;take away from减少;贬低,均不符合题意。 11C。考察主谓一致的用法。依据前半句中的谓语动词“is(一般现在时)”可推断出后半句的时态也应是 一般现在时,故排除B
34、、D两项;短语“a number of”后的谓语动词用复数形式,故选C。 12C。考察情景交际。根据句意“我们应当回收纸和瓶子,那样能够帮助保护环境。我同意你 的观点。那样做也能够省钱。”可以判断用I agree。所以选择答案C。 13D。考察动词的时态。since“自从以来”,是现在完成时的标志词,因此这句话用现在完成时。 14A。used to do sth结构的一般疑问句应在句首加did,然后将used变为use,因此答案为A。 15D。考察交际用语。由上文语境“我过去常打网球,但现在我参加了游泳队”可知只有D项“人是会 变的”与之符合。 【真题链接】【真题链接】 1. A。句意“这是谁
35、的T恤衫?我认为它是汤姆的。”whose谁的;which哪一个;what什么;who 谁。根据题意可知,这里是对物主代词提问,故选A。 2. C。根据句意“我将永远不会忘记我在那个带有小房子的古老城镇度过的那一天”,结合定语从句修饰 的先行词the day,可知用that来引导定语从句,that在从句中作动词spent的宾语,故选C。 3. A。 本句意为“我们应该想出一个解决办法, 来阻止人们驾驶汽车时看手机。 ”come up with想出, 提出; come form来自于;come out出版;come true实现。 II. 完形填空。完形填空。 1. A。根据下一句中的“threw
36、 his baseball into the corner”可知此空为baseball,故选A。 2. B。 根据下面句子“but I couldnt play baseball with you tonight”可知, 不能陪他玩, 所以很抱歉。 故选B。 3. D。根据第二段内容,晚上8点父亲还在办公室,可知父亲工作很忙。故选D。 4.
