2.

5.
As I am sure Jenny is very honest, I ______ that she stole the money.
A guess
B believe
C suspect
D doubt
答案:D
[解析] 句意:因为我确信珍妮是非常诚实的,所以我不相信她偷了钱。词义辨析题。doubt:不能确定,不相信,怀疑;其后常接if/whether或that从句。A(猜测)和B(相信)的意思不符合题意。suspect:怀疑,觉得(尤指坏事可能是事实)。若是换成suspect,此句的意思就成了“因为我相信珍妮是非常诚实的,所以我觉得她偷了钱”,显然意思上也不符合题意。故D为正确答案。
6.
Three new buildings ______ on the campus by the end of this year.
A will be built
B are going to be built
C will have been built
D have been built
答案:C
[解析] 句意:到今年年底,校园内将建起三座新楼。该题考查的将来完成时。将来完成时表示将来某时间之前或某一行为发生之前所完成的动作,和by或by the time等引出的时间状语连用,由“will/shall+have+过去分词”构成。本题的时间状语是by the end of this year,所以应该用将来完成时,另外题干中还有被动的含义,因此用将来完成时的被动结构“will/shall+have been +过去分词”,答案选C。
7.

A so much you can
B so much as you can
C much as you can
D as much as you can

[解析] 句意:学习中国烹饪,你应该尽可能多地练习实践。该题考查的是词的固定搭配。as much as...can的意思是“尽……最大能力;尽可能”,因此,选择答案D。
8.
Our department has a large collection of books, ______ are in English.
A many of which
B many of them
C many ones
D their many
答案:A
[解析] 句意:我们系有很多藏书,其中很多是英语书。该题考查的是非限制性定语从句,即定语从句和先行词之间有逗号隔开。非限制性定语从句和主句的关系比较松散,只起补充说明的作用,即使省略也不影响主句意思的完整。修饰物时,只能用which来引导,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。因此,本题中用many of which引导出一个非限制性定语从句,选择A。
9.
______, the professor is still trying to learn a new language.
A However he is old
B Old as he is
C He is as old
D As old is he
答案:B
[解析] 句意:这位教授虽然年老了,但仍在尽力学习一门新语言。as引导让步状语从句时,意为“尽管,虽然”,通常从句要用倒装,即把从句的表语或状语放as之前。本题中,old要放在as之前。所以选B。
10.

A did I have
B do I have
C should I have
D would I have
答案:A
[解析] 句意:直到最近我才了解了一些关于引导火箭的情况。本题考查not until…(直到……才……)置于句首引起句子的部分倒装。根据句中的时间副词recently(最近,近来,时间点),可以判断动词应该用过去时,因此选择A。注意recently和完成时连用时表示时间的长度。如:I haven"t been sleeping well recently.
12.
______ breaks the law will be punished sooner or later.
A Who
B Someone
C Anyone
D Whoever
答案:D
[解析] 句意:无论谁触犯了法律,迟早都要受到惩罚。whoever在该句中是关系代词,引导一个从句做整个句子的主语,这个从句叫作主语从句。whoever相当于Anyone who,在从句中做主语,指“任何人,无论谁”。
13.
Are you going to fix the car yourself, or are you going to have it ______?
A fixing
B to fix
C fix
D fixed
答案:D
[解析] 句意:你是打算自己修车还是请人来修?have sth. done是一个固定用法,意为“请别人做某事”,且不必指出请谁来做,sth.和do之间是被动关系。本题属于该种情况。而另一固定用法have sb. do意为“让某人做某事”,sb.和do之间是主动关系。

[解析] 句意:为了能更经常拜访朋友,我们搬到了伦敦。该题考查so that引导目的状语从句的用法,意为“以便,为了”,从句中常用情态动词can,could,may,might等。其他选项中,even if意为“即使,纵然”;in case意为“如果,万一”;as if意为“好像,似乎”。根据句意,只有B项符合。
15.
The grain output of this year is much higher than ______ of last year.
A that
B such
C which
D what
答案:A
[解析] 句意:今年的谷物产量比去年高得多。该题考查的是指示代词that的用法。指示代词that和those常用来指代上文提到的事物,以避免重复。代替不可数名词和单数可数名词时用that;代替复数可数名词时用those。
16.
______ helping those who are unwilling to help themselves?
A What sense is it about
B What"s the point of
C What"s the sense with
D What point is it in
答案:B
[解析] 句意:帮助那些不愿自助的人们的意义是什么呢?本题考查固定搭配。the point of...意为“做……的意义”,与“the sense in...”意思相同。C项若改为“what"s the sense in”也正确。故选B。
17.

A will bring
B would have brought
C would bring
D might have brought
答案:C
[解析] 句意:如果我发现了那本书,我会给你带来。本题考查虚拟语气。if引导的对现在情况的假设,表示现在实际上并不存在的情况,从句形式为“if+主语+were/动词的过去式+其他”;主句形式为“主语+should/would/could/might+动词原形”。故选C。
18.

[解析] 句意:他工作太努力了,那就是他不对的地方。本题考查表语从句。此处为what引导的表语从句。
20.
All ______ is peace and progress.
A what is needed
B which is needed
C that is needed
D for our needs
答案:C
[解析] 句意:所有需要的就是和平与进步。本题是一个定语从句。因为前面先行词为all,故其后的定语从句的引导词只能用that。故选C。
21.
You ought ______ the task the day before yesterday.
A to finish
B to finishing
C to have finishing
D to have finished
答案:D
[解析] 句意:你本该前天就完成这项工作的。虚拟语气题。ought to+动词完成式,意思为“本应做……而未做”。根据时间状语the day before yesterday可知,答案为D。
22.
I am going to meet the teacher, but you ______ with me.
A need go out
B need not go
C need not to go
D do not need go
答案:B
[解析] 句意:我要去见老师,可是你不必和我一起去。常用句型题。由转折连词but可知后半句为否定,need作为情态动词时,否定形式为need not+动词原形。
23.
The doctor suggested that he ______ there.
A not to go
B hadn"t gone
C not go
D wouldn"t go
答案:C
[解析] 句意:医生建议他不要去那儿了。虚拟语气题。在动词suggest后面的宾语从句中谓语动词要用虚拟语气,谓语用should+动词原形,should可以省略,否定形式用(should) not do。根据题意应选C项。
24.

A As well as
B As long as
C As soon as
D As far as

25.
______ that the earth was flat?
A Used it to be thought
B Used to it be thought
C Does it used to be thought
D Did it used to be thought
答案:A
[解析] 句意:过去人们认为地球是平的吗?情态动词题。情态动词used to意为“曾经,过去常常发生的事”。变为一般疑问句时既可借助助动词did,也可将used提前。借助于助动词did时其后应跟陈述句语序,故D项中的used应用原形,故D不正确。B项中it位置不正确。本题还原为正常陈述句语序应为It used to be thought that the earth was fiat.综合可知A正确。
26.

A not wanted
B not to want
C not wanting
D wanting not
答案:C
[解析] 句意:意识到自己没有足够的钱,也不想向父亲借,他决定卖掉手表。and前后要连接两个并列成分,前者是realizing,后面也应该是分词,否定式应在分词前加上not。故选C。

[解析] 句意:你的销售策略主要取决于和你打交道的顾客。固定用法。depend on是固定搭配,意为“依靠,取决于”,因此本题应选B项。
28.

A will have been pulled
B will have pulled
C will be pulling
D will be pulled
答案:A
[解析] 句意:我想当我十年之后回来时所有这些旧房子将都会被拆除了。in ten years" time是表将来的时间状语,因此主句谓语要用将来完成时,且主语houses与谓语pull为逻辑上的动宾关系,所以此处应用将来完成时的被动语态。故选A。
29.
This bottle is nearly empty; you ______ a lot.
A could have drunk
B ought to drink
C must drink
D must have drunk
答案:D
[解析] 句意:瓶子几乎空了,你一定喝了很多。前一句是后一句进行推测的依据,且可能性很大,所以要用must have done表示一种可能性非常大的推测。
30.
______ forget the days when we lived in the countryside.
A Never I shall
B Never shall I
C I never shall
D Never do I shall
答案:B
[解析] 句意:我永远也不会忘记我们住在乡村的那些日子。never放句首时句子要用倒装,将助动词提至主语之前,故选B。
31.

A shall arrive
B must arrive
C could arrive
D arrive
答案:D
[解析] 句意:你必须及时赶到这儿。虚拟语气题。It is imperative that...(……是紧急的,必需的)句型中的谓语动词要用虚拟语气,其形式为“should+动词原形”,should可以省略,故应选D。

A Was I to become
B Were I to become
C Had I become

答案:B
[解析] 句意:如果我要成为一名研究生,我至少需要掌握两门外语。虚拟语气题。本句为虚拟语气在if条件从句中表将来情况的用法。此时if从句应用if were to do sth.或If I should do sth.,为了强调可以用其倒装结构,且省略if。所以本句的倒装省略结构应为Were I to become或Should I become。
33.
It is the third time I ______ to the Palace Museum, and I still think it is marvelous.
A have gone
B go
C have been
D will go
答案:C
[解析] 句意:这是我第三次到故宫博物院了,我依然认为它不可思议。在It is the (first,second) third time that…结构中that从句要用现在完成时。另外本题也考查了have been to (去过某地,常和次数连用)和have gone to(已经去了某地,强调不在说话地点)的区别。
34.
The reason why he didn"t come to school was ______ ill.
A due to
B that he fell
C because fell
D because of falling
答案:B

A who
B whom
C they
D that
答案:A
[解析] 句意:我们应该向那些随时准备帮助别人的人学习。本题考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处为修饰those的定语从句的关系词,故排除C、D项。又因从句中缺少主语,故本题选A。
36.
There are many kinds of metals, ______.
A each having its special properties
B having its special properties
C one has its special properties
D each has its special properties
答案:A
[解析] 句意:有许多种金属,每一种都具有它自己的特性。语法结构题。现在分词做状语有表示伴随、方式或解释等作用,分词有自己逻辑上的主语,共同构成独立主格结构。例如:Their room was on the third floor, its window overlooking the sports ground.(他们的房间在三楼,从窗户可以看到操场。)one只表示一种,不符合题意。each表示“每一个”,因此,A为正确答案。
37.
I always take it for granted that I am ______ intelligent than she is.
A very
B too
C far more
D far better
答案:C
[解析] 句意:我总是想当然地认为我比她聪明得多。词义辨析题。一般情况下,多音节的形容词/副词的比较级要在前面加more。比较级前还可以加far,a little,much等一些副词表示程度。因此,C为正确答案。
38.
______ for the timely investment from the general public, our company would not be so thriving as it is.
A Had it not been
B Were it not
C Be it not
D Should it not be
答案:A
[解析] 句意:如果没有公众的及时投资,我们公司也不会像现在这样昌盛。语法结构题。句中省略了if的条件状语从句是对过去情况的虚拟,因此其动词的虚拟式应该用过去完成式had been或者had done;主句则是对现在情况的虚拟,其动词的虚拟式应该用would+动词原形,据此判断只有A对。
39.
He ______ go there by himself.
A did to
B did
C went
D do
答案:B
[解析] 句意:他的确是一个人去的。一般过去时态中助动词为did,did与动词go同时出现在肯定句中表强调。D项时态与原题不符。
40.
He"s careless with money; ______, he has a financial embarrassment.
A constantly
