二、单项选择 (共15小题,每小题1分)
从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入句中空白处的最佳答案。
21. Sam is ________ honest boy and every classmate likes him.
A. a B. an C. / D. the
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:山姆是一个诚实的男孩,每个同学都喜欢他。
a一个,用于辅音音素开头的单词前;an一个,用于元音音素开头的单词前;/零冠词;the表特指。此处表示“一个诚实的男孩”,honest的发音以元音音素/ɒ/开头,应填an。
22. You look so weak! I think you ________ see a doctor at once.
A. should B. may C. could D. will
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:你看起来很虚弱!我想你应该立刻去看医生。
should应该;may可能;could能;will将要。根据前句“You look so weak!”可知对方身体状况不佳,此处是提出建议,表示“应该”马上去看医生。应填should。
23. —Which month has ______ days in a year?
—February.
A. few B. little C. the least D. the fewest
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——在一年中,哪个月的天数最少?——二月。
此题考查最高级。A. few极少,修饰可数名词复数;B. little几乎没有,修饰不可数名词;C. the least最少,修饰不可数名词;D. the fewest最少,修饰可数名词。days是可数名词复数,排除BC,根据答语可知,询问的是最少的天数。故选D。
24. Grandma Lin didn’t know how to use the mobile phone ________. But now, she can use it to chat, watch videos and buy things easily.
A. at least B. at most C. at first D. at last
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:林奶奶开始不知道怎么使用手机。但是现在,她会用轻松地手机去聊天,看视频和买东西了。
考查介词短语。at least至少;at most至多;at first起初;at last最后。根据空后的“But now, she can use it to chat, watch videos and buy things easily.”可知林奶奶之前是不会用手机。at first符合题意。故选C。
25. —What do you think of the film?
—The story is not bad. But I felt a little _______ because it lasted over 3 hours.
A. interesting B. boring C. bored D. interested
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你认为这部电影怎么样?——故事不错。但我觉得有点无聊,因为它持续了超过3个小时。
interesting令人感兴趣的;boring令人无聊的;bored感到无聊的;interested感到感兴趣的。主语是I,表示人的感受通常用-ed结尾的形容词,排除A、B;根据“because it lasted over 3 hours”可知电影太长让人产生厌烦情绪,填bored。
26. —Look! It is raining ________ it was in the morning.
—You’re right. Let’s stay at home.
A. as heavily as B. as heavy as C. heavier than D. less heavily as
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——看!雨没有早上那么大了。——你说得对。我们待在家吧。
考查副词原级比较。as…as“和……一样”,中间用形容词原级或副词原级。设空处需要一个副词修饰动词raining,所以BC选项排除,D选项形式错误,故选A。
27. —Do you know sound travels very fast?
—Yes. But light travels ________ sound.
A. as fast as B. a little faster than
C. much faster than D. slower than
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:-----你知道声音传播得很快吗?------是的。但是光比声音传播得快得多。A. as fast as和…一样快;B. a little faster than快一点点, a little(可以修饰形容词比较级)用来修饰faster,表程度;C. much faster than快得多,much(可以修饰形容词比较级)用来修饰faster,表程度; D. slower than比……要慢。结合句意和常识可知选C。
28. —What are you doing over there?
—Oh, I am ________ a light in my toy lantern.
A. putting away B. putting out C. putting in D. putting up
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你在那边做什么?——哦,我正在给我的玩具灯笼装一盏小灯。
考查动词短语。putting away放好;putting out熄灭;putting in安装,做;putting up张贴。根据“a small light in my toy lantern”可知,应该是正在给玩具灯笼安装一盏小灯。故选C。
29. — What’s the ________ of your good grades?
— Hard work and carefulness, I think.
A. sense B. secret C. meaning D. example
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你的好成绩的秘诀是什么?——我觉得是努力学习和细心。
考查名词词义辨析。sense感觉;意义;secret秘诀,秘密;meaning意思;example例子。由答语“ Hard work and carefulness”可知,好成绩在于平时的努力学习和细心,应该是在问“秘诀”。故选B。
30. If you really want to lose some weight, I advise you ________ less fast food.
A. to eat B. eating C. eat D. ate
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果你真的想减肥,我建议你要少吃快餐。
advise sb. to do sth.意为“建议某人做某事”,动词不定式作宾补。应填to eat。
31. Work hard, ________ you won’t be able to finish the work in time.
A. and B. so C. but D. or
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:努力工作,否则你就不能及时完成工作。
考查连词辨析。and和;so因此;but但是;or否则。此句是“祈使句, and/or 陈述句”句型,根据句意可知,告知对方努力工作,否则就不能及时完成。故选D。
32. —What do you think of the film The Volunteers: To the War 2?
—Wonderful. I can’t find a ________ film this year.
A. less popular B. more popular C. most popular D. least popular
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你觉得电影《志愿军:雄兵出击2》怎么样?——很棒。今年我找不到更受欢迎的电影了。
less popular不如……受欢迎的,比较级;more popular更受欢迎的,比较级;most popular最受欢迎的,最高级;least popular最不受欢迎的,最高级。根据答语“Wonderful”可知,句子想表达“找不到比这更受欢迎的电影了”,应用比较级more popular。
33. —I ’m tired out after three-day work day and night.
—_____ relax yourself? Go out and enjoy the natural beauty.
A. Why not B. Why don’t C. What about D. Shall we
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——三天的日日夜夜的工作之后,我累坏了。——为什么不放松一下?出去享受一下自然的美景。
Why not+动词原形=why don’t + you +动词原形,表示提建议,“为什么不…”;what about +doing sth,表示提建议,空后是动词原形,故不对;Shall we do sth也可以表示提建议。根据对话的意思可知,这是给对方提建议,故D选项的主语不对,所以选A。
34. I can dance more ________ than ________ student in my class.
A. beautiful; any other B. beautifully; any other
C. beautifully; any D. beautiful; any
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:我比我们班里任何一个学生跳舞跳得好。
考查比较级结构。由动词dance可知,第一空应填副词beautifully;本句为二者比较,班里学生很多,应是一一比较,因此应使用“any other+名词单数”表示,意思为“任何一个……”。故选B。
35. —May I open the window now?
—________. I have got a bad cold.
A. All right B. Of course C. You’d better not D. You shouldn’t
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我现在可以开窗吗?——你最好不要。我得了重感冒。
All right好吧;Of course当然;You’d better not你最好不要;You shouldn’t你不应该。根据“I have got a bad cold.”可知,说话人希望对方不要开窗,需要用委婉拒绝的表达,You’d better not符合语境。

The rose proudly said, “It seems that I am the most beautiful flower in this forest.” Then the rose looked at a cactus (仙人掌) and said, “Look at that ugly plant full of thorns (刺)!”
“What a proud flower!” thought the trees.
As the days passed, the red rose often looked at the cactus and said bad words about it, like “This plant is useless. How sorry I am to be his neighbor!”
The cactus never got angry and even tried to advise the rose, saying, “God did not create any form of life without a purpose.”
Spring passed, and the weather became very hot. As there was no rain, the red rose was about to die.
One day the rose saw birds put their beaks (喙) into the cactus and then fly away. The red rose asked the pine tree what the birds were doing. The pine tree explained that the birds were getting water from the cactus.
“The cactus has water?” asked the rose.
“Yes, you can also drink some from it. The birds can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help.”
