22、解析】I. 单项选择。1.D。此句为 so 引导的完全倒装句。其含义为“A 如此，B 也如此。 ”其结构是 so+be/助动词/情态动词+主语。本句为完成时态，其助动词是 have。故选 D。2.A。此句要用相同成分即上海的人口和沈阳的人口做比较。因为 population 是不可数名词，所以用 that 代替。如果是复数名词则要用 those 来代替。3.B。问人口的多少用 what 或 how large 而不用 how many。本题问的是 2005 年的人口，所以用过去时态。4.C。本题考查 increase 的现在分词作定语的情况，表示“正在增长的” 。increased 是它的过去
23、分词也可作定语，但表示的是“已增长过的” 。5.A。already“已经” ，常用于完成时态肯定句中；yet“已经” ，常用于完成时态的疑问句和否定句中；still“仍，还” ；once“一旦” 。根据题意“这个小女孩已经读完了你借给她的书”选择 A。6.B。此题考查不及物动词 happen 和 take place 的用法, 不及物动词不能用于被动语态。根据题中 changes 是复数，答句用完成时态。故选 B。7.C。in order to 和 because of 后面不能接从句，unless“除非” ，不符合题意。本句主句和从句之间是因果关系，故用 because。8.B。be goi
24、ng to do 表明只能选动词原形。 take part in 意为“参加” ，常指参加群众性的活动、会议、劳动、游行等；join 意为“加入” ，指加入某一党派、组织或社会团体，以及参军等，并成为其中一员。根据句意“成为 club 成员”,而不是“参加”某项活动,故不能选 A。9. B。arrive in/at “到达 ”,in 后的宾语为大地点,at 后的宾语为小地点。在晚上用at night,故选 B。10.B。考查 spend some time doing sth. /on sth.结构,意为“某人花时间做某事” 。【真题链接】1. B。根据句意可知前后句是转折关系，所以选 but
25、。2. D。句意：他告诉记者他已经用光了买旧自行车的钱。 run out of 用光，用完。put away 将收起; turn off 关掉; take out 拿出; use up 用光，用完。根据句意，此处应该选择 D 项。3. C。句意：你们学校的校规是什么？不要在走廊里跑，上课不能迟到。答语中是两个并列的祈使句，祈使句是以动词原形开头，否定形式是在其前面加 dont。根据句意和否定祈使句的结构，可知应该选择 C 项。II. 完形填空。1.D。本句中要用 it 来作 think 的形式宾语，真正的宾语是其后的不定式短语，即主语+谓语+it+adj.+to do sth. 的形式。2.C
26、。本句考查“agree with sb”这一结构，表示“同意的意见” 。3.A。本句中 make it known to 是较为正式的习惯用语，表示“把某事向公布或发表”。4.B。根据题意本句是条件状语从句，所以排除时间状语从句引导词 C 项。unless“除非，如果不” ，if 不合题意，if not 不能引导从句。故选 B。5.A。本句考查 die of+n 短语，意思是“死于” ，表示死的原因，die 后既可接介词 of，也可接 from, 两者的区别是：若死因存在于人体之上或之内（主要指疾病、衰老等自身的原因)，一般用介词 of。如：die of illness;若死因不是存在人体之内
27、或之上，而是由环境造成的(主要指事故等方面的外部原因)，一般用介词 from。如：die from an earthquake;若死因是环境影响到体内，即两方面共有的原因，则可用 of, from 均可。如：die of /froma drink / hunger and cold。6.B。本句指法律被通过，动词选用 pass，又是被动语态用 be+过去分词，故选 B。7.B。本句中谓语动词是单数并与上句呈对比关系，所以排除 A、C、D，应选 B 项。8.C。本句考查 make sb. do sth. 这一结构。9.C。表示“不再”有两种结构，一种是 not any longer/any mo
28、re，另一种是 no longer/more，此处应考虑第二种结构，而 no longer 表示时间上的“不再” ，no more 表示频率上的“不再” 。根据题意，应指的是时间上的“不再” 。10.A。本句考查 not until 这一结构。III. 阅读理解。A1. B。由文中可知，本题题目为：提到在中国特殊的书店有几个，由第二段我们可以知道：Sanlian Taofen Bookstore、 Popular Holdings、Eslite Bookstore，所以有三个特殊的书店，所以答案为 B。2. D。由文中第二段的第二句可知：Scarthin Books is a small bo
29、okstore in the UK. Scarthin 书 店是在英国的一家小书店。所以答案选 D。3. A。由文中第三段的第 5-7 句： Barts Books in the US is a good place to enjoy the sunshine(阳 光) while reading books. Its an outdoor bookstore. Bookshelves are on the street. When the store is closed, people can still buy books 可知，书架在街道上。当商店关闭，人们仍然可以买书。所以答案选 A。
30、4. B。order meals 点餐，由文中最后一段的倒数第三句话 On the second floor, visitors can order everyday meals in the caf and drinks from the bar 可知，答案为 B。5. C。由文中最后一段的倒数第二句 In order to keep cool, there are green plants and trees inside 可知，答案应该为 C。B6. They can be found in Africa, South America and parts of Asia.7. Seventy-five percent/75%.8. Not having enough food; living in poor housing conditions; suffering from many kinds of diseases; getting little education.（答对其中两点即可）9.Yes, there will.10.在发展中国家，超过十亿的人仍过着贫困线以下的生活。
