( )1. It is outside. Let’s put on our raincoats and go out, Tom.
A. coldB. hot
C. sunnyD. rainy
【解析】 答案為D。這里有個(gè)put on短語,如果不注意raincoats這個(gè)詞那就很可能草率地選擇A。raincoats是“雨衣”的意思,而不是一般的衣服,那么不是因?yàn)橥饷妗袄洹?,而是因?yàn)椤跋掠辍辈糯坝暌隆薄?/p>
( )2. —What’s your sister like?
— .
A. She is a worker
B. She likes pears
C. She is very thin
D. She is like her father
【解析】 答案為C。問句的意思是“你姐姐長得怎么樣?”What’s ... like? 這個(gè)句型常常用來詢問某人的長相或某事的情況(包括天氣情況)。
( )3. —It’s too hot. Would you mind
the door?
— . Please do it now.
A. to open, OK
B. opening, Certainly not
C. opening, Of course
D. to open, Good idea
【解析】 答案為B。mind后面接動詞時(shí)要用其ing形式。由答語中的Please do it now. 可知“不介意”。
( )1. He is taller than girl in his class.
A. anyB. other
C. any otherD. another
【解析】 答案為A。要不要other, 關(guān)鍵是看主語是否也在比較范圍之內(nèi);如果在范圍之內(nèi),就必須用other, 以此來避免與自身進(jìn)行比較;如果不在范圍之內(nèi),則不能用other, 因?yàn)闆]有必要把自身排除。這里主語he不屬于girl in his class之列,不能用other。
( )2. How beautifully she sings!I have never heard voice.
A. the bestB. a best
C. the betterD. a better
【解析】 答案為D。許多同學(xué)認(rèn)為最高級前加了定冠詞the肯定沒錯。其實(shí),這是一個(gè)暗含比較級,它省略了一些我們很清楚的東西,句子的完整形式應(yīng)為:I have never heard a better voice than her voice.

( )1. fathers made them have piano lessons.
A. Peter and Ann’s
B. Peter’s and Ann’s
C. Peter’s and Ann
D. Peter and Ann
【解析】 答案為B。平時(shí)考生們做多了“This is Lucy and Lily’s bedroom. ”這樣的題,一看到這樣的題就想到只在后一個(gè)單詞后加所有格。其實(shí),用一個(gè)所有格,還是兩個(gè)所有格,取決于它們所修飾的名詞:如果所修飾的名詞是單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞,就只在后一個(gè)名詞后加所有格;如果所修飾的名詞是復(fù)數(shù)可數(shù)名詞,兩個(gè)名詞都加所有格。
( )2. There are a lot people today than yesterday.
A. ofB. /
C. mostD. more
【解析】 答案為D。有不少考生因受 “ a lot of +名詞” 這一思維定勢的影響,一看到a lot,就選擇A。其實(shí),該句中的a lot是用來修飾形容詞的比較級more的。
( )3. “Excuse me, are you ? ”
“No, we are . ”
A. American; Englishman
B. American; Germans
C. American; Germen
D. Englishman; Americans
【解析】 答案為B。從詞性來看,American和German既可作名詞也可作形容詞,作名詞時(shí),其復(fù)數(shù)形式分別為Americans 和 Germans;選項(xiàng)中的Englishman只能作名詞,其復(fù)數(shù)形式是Englishmen。German的復(fù)數(shù)是Germans,不是Germen。

( )1. A spaceship flies at about eleven kilometers second.
A. /B. theC. aD. an
【解析】 答案為C。很多同學(xué)認(rèn)為這里的second是序數(shù)詞,前面應(yīng)該用定冠詞the修飾。其實(shí),second在這里是 “秒” 的意思,是名詞。
( )2. India and China are of
same continent.
A. /; theB. The; the
C. /; /D. /; a
【解析】 答案為A。譯成漢語時(shí)這句話的意思是 “印度和中國在同一個(gè)大洲”,漢語里說 “同一個(gè)”,在英語中要說 “the same”。
■
( )1. I hear someone at the door. Please go and see who is.
A. knock; heB. knocking; he
C. knock; itD. knocking; it
【解析】 答案為D。hear sb. do sth. 意為“聽見某人做某事”,hear sb. doing sth. 意為“聽見某人正在做某事”。其實(shí),在英語中常用it來指代身份(姓名、職業(yè)等)不詳?shù)娜?。有人敲門時(shí)我們常常用英語問 “Who is it?”
( )2. Lucy and I are classmates. We in Class One.
A. all areB. are all
C. both areD. are both
【解析】 答案為D。表示兩者都要用both,both一般放在be動詞、情態(tài)動詞或助動詞之后,行為動詞之前。
( )3. There is egg at home. Will you please get for me, please?
A. no; someB. not; some
C. not any; anyD. not an; any
【解析】 答案為A。大家都知道some一般用于肯定句中,而any一般用于疑問句或否定句中。其實(shí),在表示請求或建議的疑問句,如Would you like ...? / Could you / I ...?等中習(xí)慣用some而不用any。no可以直接修飾名詞,而not必須加上a/an或any之后才可以接名詞。
( )4. —A latest English newspaper, please!
—Only one copy left. Would you like to have , sir?
A. oneB. this
C. that D. it
【解析】 答案為D。由上文中的Only one copy left. 可知,只剩下一份報(bào)紙了,這暗示了購買者別無選擇,只能買“它”了。
