　　—Yes. The last train for Guangzhou________at seven fifteen in the evening.

　　A．has leftB．leaves

　　C．was left D．will leave

　　答案：B　考查時(shí)態(tài)。此處用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)表一般將來。

　　2．—We'd like a table for five，please?

　　—Have you________？

　　A．preserved

　　B．reserved

　　C．a(chǎn)pplied

　　D．subscribed

　　答案：B　考查動(dòng)詞。句意：“我們要一張可以圍坐5個(gè)人的桌子。”“你預(yù)定了嗎？”reserve“預(yù)定”；preserve“保存”；apply“應(yīng)用”；subscribe“捐助，簽名”。

　　3．It was________who suggested that he________to New York in order to get a direct flight.

　　A．her; went

　　B．her; go

　　C．she; went

　　D．she; go

　　答案：D　考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句型和虛擬語氣。第一空是被強(qiáng)調(diào)的句子的主語，所以填主格形式she；第二空suggest作“建議”講時(shí)，所接that從句用“(should)＋動(dòng)詞原形”的虛擬語氣。

　　4．In China, a good many traditional customs have________.

　　A．died down

　　B．died off

　　C．died away

　　D．died out

　　答案：D　考查動(dòng)詞短語。句意：在中國，許多傳統(tǒng)習(xí)俗已經(jīng)消失了。die out“消失，滅絕”。

　　A．having affected

　　B．has been affected

　　C．a(chǎn)ffected

　　D．has affected

　　答案：C　句意：在現(xiàn)在的全球經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)中，根據(jù)統(tǒng)計(jì)，中國雖然在某種程度上受到了影響，毫無疑問是經(jīng)濟(jì)恢復(fù)最快的。China與affect之間構(gòu)成了邏輯上的動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，所以用過去分詞形式。

　　6．The math problem was the most difficult one I had ever met, but I________to work it out at last.

　　A．tried

　　B．managed

　　C．succeeded

　　D．failed

　　答案：B　考查動(dòng)詞詞義和用法上的區(qū)別。try to do“努力做；企圖做”；manage to do“設(shè)法做成”；succeed(in)doing等于manage to do“強(qiáng)調(diào)成功做到(著重結(jié)果)”；fail to do“失敗；沒做到”。

　　7．The recent stories in this magazine，________one of yours, have been________in the list of the best ones.

　　A．include; include

　　B．including; including

　　C．including; included

　　D．included; included

　　答案：C　考查動(dòng)詞include的用法。如果表示“整體中包括局部”，用介詞including；若表示“局部包括在整體中”，謂語動(dòng)詞用被動(dòng)語態(tài)have been included。

　　8．I would appreciate________， to be honest, if goods could be delivered as soon as possible.

　　A．you

　　B．this

　　C．myself

　　D．it

　　答案：D　考查有關(guān)appreciate的固定用法。appreciate雖為及物動(dòng)詞，但習(xí)慣上其后面不直接跟從句，其后常加入一個(gè)無所指代的it，只是語法需要，it并無確切含義。

　　9．We should try our best to keep our environment from______.

　　A．polluting

　　B．polluted

　　C．being polluted

　　D．having polluted

　　答案：C　考查keep...from...用法。處在介詞之后且含有被動(dòng)意味，故用v.-ing的被動(dòng)式。

　　10．(2011·寧波模擬)________in gardening and volunteering work, Mrs. Black leads a busy and rich life at her old age.

　　A．Employing

　　B．Employed

　　C．To employ

　　D．Being employed

　　答案：B　考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。由be employed in“忙于”可知，選B項(xiàng)。

　　11．The photo brought me back to the memory of the time in Qingdao，________I spent my summer holiday by the seaside with my friends.

　　A．that

　　B．when

　　C．which

　　D．what

　　答案：B　考查定語從句。I spent my summer holiday by the seaside with my friends是從句部分，該部分主干成分完整，因此用關(guān)系副詞；先行詞是time，故選when。

　　12．It is reported that 1.4 million people took part in________post-graduate entrance exam，________13 percent increase from last year.

　　A．a(chǎn); the

　　B．the; a

　　C．a(chǎn); /

　　D．/; a

　　答案：B　題干中的post-graduate entrance exam在這兒是特指“今年的”研究生入學(xué)考試；a 13 percent increase from last year表示比去年增加了13%，其中不定冠詞a修飾后面的increase。

　　13．—What is the newcomer like?

　　—His manner is________to offend everyone he has met.

　　A．so as

　　B．such as

　　C．in order

　　D．a(chǎn)s

　　答案：B　考查句式。such as to“到如此程度以致”。再如：His illness is such as to cause anxiety. 他病得很重，令人擔(dān)憂。

　　14．Nowadays, many people walk to work________Copenhagen Conference calling for living a low-carbon lifestyle to cope with global warming.

　　A．in relation to

　　B．in response to

　　C．in addition to

　　D．in opposition to

　　答案：B　考查介詞短語。句意：現(xiàn)在，作為對(duì)哥本哈根氣候大會(huì)為解決全球變暖而發(fā)出的低碳生活的呼吁的回應(yīng)，許多人步行上班。in response to“作為對(duì)……的回答，作為對(duì)……的反應(yīng)”；in relation to“涉及，有關(guān)”；in addition to“除……之外(還)”；in opposition to“與……的意見相反”。

　　15．(2010·陜西－24)It is reported that many a new house________at present in the disaster area.

　　A．a(chǎn)re being built

　　B．were being built

　　C．was being built

　　D．is being built

　　答案：D　句意：據(jù)報(bào)導(dǎo)，現(xiàn)在許多新房屋正在災(zāi)區(qū)興建。由at present 可知本句要用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)，而當(dāng)“many a ＋可數(shù)名詞”作主語時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞要用單數(shù)形式，盡管含有復(fù)數(shù)意義。
