三、翻译题:本大题共5小题,每小题3分,共15分
36. 为了能被观众听到,表演者们必须高声地歌唱。(in high voices)(句子汉译英)
____________________________________________________________
【答案】In order to be heard by the audiences, performers have to sing in high voices.
【解析】
【详解】考查动词不定式作目的状语及时态。根据句意可知,该句描述客观情况,应用一般现在时。为了能被观众听到:In order to be heard by the audiences,是由in order to引导的动词不定式短语作目的状语,其中to be heard by the audiences是不定式一般式的被动式;表演者们:performers,作主语;必须唱:have to sing,作谓语,一般现在时;高声地:in high voices,作方式状语。句首首字母大写。故本句译为:In order to be heard by the audiences, performers have to sing in high voices.
37. 那段时间,我总是在听贝多芬的交响乐时反思人生。(根据中文句意完句)
During that time, I always ________ ________ my life while listening to Beethoven’s symphony.
【答案】 ①. reflected ②. on
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和时态。“反思”是动词短语“reflect on”,根据时间状语During that time可知,句子描述的是过去总会发生的事情,应使用一般过去时,动词reflect应使用过去式reflected。故填reflected;on。
38. 他唱得那么大声,隔壁的人都能听见。(根据中文句意完句)
So loudly ________ that even people in the next room could hear him.
【答案】did he sing
【解析】
【详解】考查部分倒装。在so ... that ...结构中,若将so+adj./adv.置于句首,则其后的主句要用部分倒装形式,也就是将系动词/助动词/情态动词放在主语之前,谓语动词使用原形。本句时态为一般过去时,“唱”是动词“sing”,主语“他”是人称代词“he”,助动词使用did。故填did he sing。
39. 英国是一个历史悠久国家,在地理上由四个部分组成。(根据中文句意完句)
The UK is a country with a long history, ________ four parts geographically.
【答案】consisting of
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词及动词短语。由……组成:consist of。分析句子可知,此句中有动词is,所以横线上是非谓语动词;“consist of”与逻辑主语“The UK”之间是主动关系,所以使用现在分词作后置定语。故答案为:consisting of。
40. 餐桌上的不知名的黄色的花发出一种芳香,所以珍妮低下头去闻花香。(根据中文句意完句)
The unknown yellow flowers on the table ________ a sweet smell, so Jane lowered her face to smell them.
【答案】gave out
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和时态。“发出”是动词短语“give out”,根据lowered可知,句子时态是一般过去时,所以动词give要用过去式gave。故填gave out。
四、短文填空:本大题共10小题,每小题1分,共10分
The Suez Canal, ____41____ it currently exists, is a 193-kilometer artificial waterway connecting the Mediterranean Sea at Port Said to the Red Sea at Port Tewfik.
This waterway connects the Atlantic and Indian Oceans in a way that doesn’t require a ship heading between Europe and Asia ____42____ go around Africa or wait for the ice to melt in the Arctic.
The canal also, unlike the Panama Canal, has no locks at all, making it ____43____ (easy) for some of the world’s ships to slip right through and for the canal ____44____ (expand), should the Egyptian government prioritize such a project.
As tough as it may have been to build a canal ____45____ this scale, the Suez Canal was far from the first of its kind of area. In fact a canal of this sort was first attempted by Egypt in the 19th century BC, under the rule of Middle Kingdom pharaoh Senusret Ⅱ. A canal was reportedly later opened by the time of the Islamic Caliphates but it was reportedly closed in the 8th century AD. That combined with the Red Sea gradually receding away from what are now the Bitter Lakes ____46____ (cause) the canal to fade into disuse.
In the following decades, a railway was set up between Alexandria and Suez but this wasn’t good enough for global trade, so guess what they thought of? That’s right, ____47____ canal!
Construction broke ground in 1859 and took ten years ____48____ a grand total of over 1.5 million workers throughout the decade.
The area, seeing virtually immediate success, ____49____ (declare) in the Constantinople Convention to be an international zone under British protection. This ____50____ play a pivotal part in the World Wars, and also contribute to conflict between Britain and Egypt in the Suez Crisis.
【答案】41. as 42. to
43 easier 44. to be expanded
45. on 46. caused
47. another
48. with 49. was declared
50. would
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了苏伊士运河的作用和修建经过。
【41题详解】
考查状语从句。句意:苏伊士运河,正如它目前存在的那样,是一条长193公里的人工水道,连接了塞得港的地中海和图菲克港的红海。此处引导方式状语从句,表示“正如”,应用as。故填as。
【42题详解】
考查代词。句意:这条航道以一种特殊的方式连接了大西洋和印度洋:它使得往返于欧洲与亚洲之间的船只无需绕经非洲,也不必等待北极的冰层融化(再通行)。句中“heading between Europe and Asia”是现在分词短语作后置定语,修饰“ship”;此处考查动词短语结构“require sth. to do (需要某物做某事)”,即:require a ship to go... or wait...。故填to。
【43题详解】
考查比较级。句意:此外,与巴拿马运河不同的是,这条运河根本没有水闸,这使得世界上一些船只更容易通过,如果埃及政府优先考虑这样一个项目,也使得这条运河也更容易得到扩建。结合句意可知,这是将“无水闸”与“有水闸”的情况作对比,应用形容词easy的比较级easier,表示“更容易”。故填easier。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:此外,与巴拿马运河不同的是,这条运河根本没有水闸,这使得世界上一些船只更容易通过,如果埃及政府优先考虑这样一个项目,这条运河也更容易得到扩建。此处为“make it adj. for sb. to do sth.”结构,且expand与canal构成被动关系,故用to be done形式。故填to be expanded。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管修建如此规模的运河可能很困难,但苏伊士运河绝不是这类地区的首个运河。结合句意可知,此处“... scale”作后置定语,修饰canal,考查与scale构成固定搭配的介词“on”,“on this scale”表示“如此规模”。故填on。
【46题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:再加上红海逐渐从现在的苦水湖中退去,这就导致了运河的废弃。根据上文“That combined with the Red Sea”可知,此处描述的是过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故填caused。
【47题详解】
考查形容词。句意:没错,另一条运河!修饰单数名词canal,表示“另一个的”应用another。故填another。
【48题详解】
考查连词。句意:1859年破土动工,历时10年,总共雇佣了150多万工人。此句用并列连词and连接两个谓语“broke ground”和“took”,空处需用介词“with”与后文构成复合结构“with+宾+宾补”作伴随状语,即“with+ a grand total of over 1.5 million workers (名词短语作宾语)+ throughout the decade (介宾短语作宾补)”,用来伴随描述此项工程投入的人力和耗费的时长。故填with。
【49题详解】
考查动词时态及语态。句意:这一地区很快就取得了成功,《君士坦丁堡公约》宣布该地区为英国保护下的国际区域。描述过去发生的事情应用一般过去时,且主语The area与谓语动词declare构成被动关系,主语The area为第三人称单数,谓语动词用单数。故填was declared。
【50题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:这将在世界大战中发挥关键作用,也促成了英国和埃及在苏伊士运河危机中的冲突。结合语境可知,此处表示从过去某一时间来看,将要发生的动作或呈现的状态,应用过去将来时,结构为“would+动词原形”。故填would。
