參考答案

1.B解析：theeducationsystem是主語(yǔ)，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)；thedesiredresults意為“期望的結(jié)果”。

2.A解析：此題考查反意疑問(wèn)句的用法。主句為祈使句，因此其反意疑問(wèn)句用willyou。

3.B

4.C解析：本題考查詞義的辨別。rise出現(xiàn)，put放下，raise提起，arise升高。

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

6.D

7.D

8.D

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

10.B

11.A

12.B解析：此處是對(duì)將來(lái)情況的假設(shè)。虛擬條件句的謂語(yǔ)部分為should，had或were時(shí)，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在從句的主語(yǔ)之前，構(gòu)成主謂部分倒裝。

13.C解析：本題考查倒裝虛擬語(yǔ)氣用法。本句是表示與將來(lái)事實(shí)相反，所以從句用wereto形式。句意為：如果他今天出發(fā)的話，他就會(huì)在星期五以前到達(dá)那里。

14.A本句考查兩個(gè)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€(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有A項(xiàng)的justas有“正如，猶如”的意思。故選A。

15.D解析：which修飾非限定性定語(yǔ)從句，指代前邊一句話。本題涉及句法知識(shí)——簡(jiǎn)單句、并列句和復(fù)合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(簡(jiǎn)單句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(復(fù)合句)

16.D解析：本題測(cè)試形容詞辨析。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)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(xiàng)正確。本句大意為：他僅僅把它作為一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)來(lái)描述，而我卻認(rèn)為它是這個(gè)計(jì)劃中最重要的部分。

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

18.B

19.A解析：本題考虛擬語(yǔ)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(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用“should+認(rèn)”，should可以省去，再結(jié)合語(yǔ)態(tài)，故A項(xiàng)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(zhǎng)辦公室。

20.A解析：favor：幫助，一般用domeafavor；good：好處；help不與do搭配：kindness：善良。故選A。

21.如果您能讓我去參觀故宮，我將不勝感激。

22.Theyhaveastrongbeliefthatonlythroughhardworkandeffortcanpeopleperfectthemselvesandgainabetterfuturethemselves.

23.雖然他現(xiàn)在并不成功但他不相信他的人生是失敗的.雖然他現(xiàn)在并不成功，但他不相信他的人生是失敗的.

26.一個(gè)原因是一旦到達(dá)那兒所受到的接待方式。迪士尼樂(lè)園的人走出來(lái)為“客人們”提供服務(wù)他們喜歡這樣稱呼游客并且樂(lè)見(jiàn)他們玩的高興。一個(gè)原因是一旦到達(dá)那兒所受到的接待方式。迪士尼樂(lè)園的人走出來(lái)為“客人們”提供服務(wù)，他們喜歡這樣稱呼游客，并且樂(lè)見(jiàn)他們玩的高興。
