[解析] 句意:杰克比比尔优秀因为他懂西班牙语。本题考查词组辨析。just as意为“同……一样”;so that意为“因此,以便”;in that和because of都有“因为”的意思,但because of后面跟名词或动名词,而不能跟从句,in that可以引导句子,因此A正确。

A as
B just as
C like
D just like
答案:C
[解析] 句意:我喜欢由天然材料,像棉花和羊毛,做成的衣服。词义辨析题。as和like都可以表示“像……”的意思,但是表示列举时,通常用such as,因此本题选C。

A have
B had
C has
D would have
答案:A
[解析] 句意:正是他的医生建议他离开这个城市去度假。虚拟语气题。动词advise之后由that引导的宾语从句中,谓语动词要用“(should)+动词原形”构成虚拟语气。类似的词还有insist,recommend,suggest等。
24.

A her
B that
C it
D this

A might not have wanted
B could not have wanted
C should not have wanted
D ought not to have wanted
答案:A
[解析] 句意:他昨天晚上没来参加聚会。他可能不想见我们。情态动词题。could not have done:不可能做某事;should not/ought not to have done:本不应该做某事;B项过于绝对,C、D两项不符合题意。故应选A项表示对过去的可能性推测。
27.

A must
B should
C need
D have to
答案:A
[解析] 句意:当然在我给她提完建议之后,她偏要去,并且跟我对着干。情态动词题。must表示“偏要,一定”,指做令人不快的事情,与说话人的愿望相反。should(应该)、need(必须)、have to(不得不)均不符合句意。
28.
It is essential that all these figures ______ twice.
A being checked
B are checked
C checked
D be checked
答案:D
[解析] 句意:所有这些数据被检查两遍是很有必要的。虚拟语气。在It is necessary/essential/important that从句中,从句谓语动词需用“(should)+动词原形”的形式。
29.
______ to be a bad flood that year.
A There was
B There happened
C There were
D There happens
答案:B
[解析] 句意:那一年碰巧发生了一场严重的水灾。There be句型中的谓语动词也可以是happen to,构成There happen to be结构,意为“碰巧发生……”。又因句中有that year,所以此处谓语动词应用一般过去时,所以本题应选B。A项中there was与to be重复,故不选。
30.

A Although he is a socialist
B Even if he is a socialist
C Being a socialist
D Since he is a socialist
答案:A
[解析] 句意:虽然威尔斯先生是一位社会学家,但他几乎不同情工人阶级。状语从句。根据句意可知,前后应为转折的意思。而even if表让步,since表原因,C项与句意不符,因此只有A项合适,although意为“虽然……但是……”。
31.
—______ does Mr. Johnson go to London on business?
— At least once a month.
A How many
B How long
C How often
D How
答案:C
[解析] 句意:——约翰逊先生多久去伦敦出差一次?——最少一月一次。本句是特殊疑问句。根据回答可以断定是对频率进行提问的,因此C符合题意。
32.
I heard the news ______ our team had won.
A where
B that
C which
D what
答案:B
[解析] 句意:我听到了我们队获胜的消息。本句为同位语从句,因此用that引导,先行词为news。
33.

A was almost hurt
B was almost to hurt himself
C was almost hurt himself
D was almost hurting himself
答案:A
[解析] 句意:公共汽车突然停下来,他几乎受伤了。本题测试被动语态的用法。be hurt意为“受伤,被伤害”,hurt himself意为“伤害他自己”,根据句意可知此处表示“受伤”,故选A。
34.

A do I
B don"t I
C are you
D aren"t you
答案:C
[解析] 句意:我认为你并不是很严肃,是吗?本题测试反意疑问句的用法。含有宾语从句的反意疑问句的反问应当和主句保持一致,但是如果主句的谓语动词是suppose/believe/think/expect/imagine等时,反问时要和从句保持一致,是肯定还是否定依然遵循“前肯后否”原则,因此正确答案为C。又如:I don"t think you"ve heard of him before, have you?
35.
This composition is good ______ some spelling mistakes.
A except
B besides
C except that
D except for
答案:D
[解析] 句意:这篇作文很好,只是有些拼写错误。本题测试词语辨析,特别是except和except for的区别。except:将一个或几个人或物从同一类或普通的种类中除外。例如:All came except Jane.(除了简以外都来了。)except for:说明整个基本情况后,对细节加以修正。例如:He is a good man except for hot temper.(他是个好人,只是脾气暴躁而已。)根据句意可知这里是对结论的修正,因此用D。

37.

A task
B duty
C work
D charge
答案:D
[解析] 句意:老板让她在他离开的那几天看管一下办公室。本题考查的是动词短语的固定搭配。take charge of为固定搭配,意为“看管,负责”。
38.
Women all over the world are ______ equal pay for equal jobs.
A calling on
B calling about
C calling off
D calling for
答案:D
[解析] 句意:全世界的妇女都要求同工同酬。本题测试call动词短语的辨析。call for:需求,要求。例如:The relations of the dead man called for an inquiry.(死者的家属要求调查。)call on:请求,号召。例如:They called on the workers of the country to support the strike.(他们号召全国工人支持这场罢工。) call off:取消。例如:The football match was called off on account of rain.(足球赛因下雨而被取消。)因此D符合题意。
39.
With the bridge ______, there was nothing for it but to swim.
A was destroyed
B destroying
C being destroyed
D destroyed
答案:D
[解析] 句意:桥被摧毁了,没有其他办法,只能游过去。本题测试非谓语动词。介词with后面常接复合宾语,本题中with的宾语和宾语补足语之间是动宾关系,因此用过去分词。因此D符合题意。
40.
Having no money but ______ to know, he simply said he would go without dinner.
A not to want anyone
B wanted no one
C not wanting anyone
D to want no one
答案:C
[解析] 句意:没有钱又不想让别人知道,他只说他不吃饭就走。本题测试平行结构的用法。连词but连接的两部分结构应一致,本题中but前面使用了having no money,因此后面需用动名词短语not wanting anyone。
