第一句中的if意为“是否”,引导宾语从句,根据时间状语“tomorrow”可知从句应用一般将来时(will come);第二句中的if意为“如果”,引导条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现”原则,即主句用一般将来时(will tell),从句用一般现在时(comes)表示将来。应选will come;comes。
10. — What a nice watch! Where did you buy it?

A. makes B. is made C. made D. was made

【详解】句意:——我不喜欢这本书。它太无聊了。——我也不喜欢。我觉得它比我们上周读的那本更无聊。
boring无聊的;more boring更无聊的;most boring最无聊的;the most boring最无聊的。句中出现标志词than(比),说明是两者(这本书和上周读的那本书)之间的比较,必须用形容词比较级,直接排除A(原级)、C、D(最高级,最高级用于三者及以上的比较)。boring是多音节形容词,多音节形容词的比较级变化规则是在原级前加more,因此正确形式是more boring。
17. —You should ________ smoking. It’s bad for your health.

【解析】
【详解】句意:保护环境很重要。我们应该停止污染空气和水。根据“It’s important to protect the environment.”可知是要停止污染空气和水;句中“stop doing sth.”是固定搭配,表示“停止做某事”,此处需要填入动名词形式。“污染”对应的单词为pollute,其动名词形式为polluting。
44. My brother likes playing basketball. He is a m________ of the school basketball team.
【答案】member##ember
【解析】
【详解】句意:我哥哥/弟弟喜欢打篮球,他是校篮球队的一员。根据后面“basketball team”表示篮球队,结合语境可知,应该是篮球队中的一员,这里用到固定搭配“a member of…”,意思是 “……的一员”,应填member。
45. She is a kind girl. She always helps others without thinking about h________.
【答案】herself##erself
【解析】
【详解】句意:她是一个善良的女孩,她总是乐于助人,而不考虑她自己。结合句意与首字母h,主语是she,对应的反身代词为herself,think about oneself意为“考虑某人自己”。故填herself。
B. 用所给单词的适当形式填空(每小题1分,共5分)
46. He ________ (visit) his grandparents last weekend. They were very happy to see him.
【答案】visited
【解析】
【详解】句意:他上周末去看望了他的祖父母。他们见到他非常高兴。visit“看望”,根据“last weekend”可知,句子时态为一般过去时,此处用过去式visited。故填visited。
47. Look! The children ________ (play) happily in the park.
【答案】are playing
【解析】
【详解】句意:看!孩子们在公园里玩得很开心。play“玩”,结合“Look!”可知,该句时态是现在进行时,其结构是is/am/are+doing,且The children是复数名词,be动词要用are。故填are playing。
48. This book ________ (write) by a famous writer. It’s very popular.
【答案】is written
【解析】
【详解】句意:这本书是一位著名作家写的,它非常受欢迎。句中主语“This book”与动词“write”之间是被动关系,需用被动语态;结合语境可知,句子描述的是客观事实,用一般现在时,其被动语态结构为“is/am/are+过去分词”,主语是单数,be动词用is,write的过去分词是written。
49. She has ________ (live) in this city for 10 years. She knows it very well.
【答案】lived
【解析】
【详解】句意:她已经在这座城市住了10年。她对这里非常熟悉。句中“for 10 years”为现在完成时的标志性时间状语,现在完成时结构为“have/has+过去分词,本句中已有助动词has,所以live要变为过去分词为lived,故填lived。
50. My mother often tells me ________ (not watch) too much TV. It’s bad for my eyes.
【答案】not to watch
【解析】
【详解】句意:我妈妈经常告诉我不要看太多电视。这对我的眼睛有害。根据“My mother often tells me…too much TV.”可知,此处是“tell sb. not to do sth.”结构,表示“告诉某人不要做某事”,因此横线处需填动词不定式的否定形式,watch“观看”,动词,其否定形式为not to watch。故填not to watch。
Ⅴ. 句型转换(每小题2分,共10分)
按要求完成下列句子,每空一词(含缩略形式),并将答案写在横线上。
51. He finished his homework at nine last night. (改为否定句)
He ________ ________ his homework at nine last night.
【答案】 ①. didn’t ②. finish
【解析】
【详解】句意:他昨晚九点完成了作业。句子为一般过去时,改为否定句需要借助助动词didn’t,动词使用原形,finished还原为动词原形finish。故填didn’t;finish。
52. They will have a picnic tomorrow. (改为一般疑问句)
________ they ________ a picnic tomorrow?
【答案】 ①. Will ②. have
【解析】
【详解】句意:他们明天要去野餐。原句为一般将来时(will+动词原形)。改为一般疑问句时,将助动词“will”提到主语“they”之前,首字母大写,后面的动词保持原形“have”。
53. The girl is very young. She can’t go to school. (合并为一句)
The girl is ________ young ________ go to school.
【答案】 ①. too ②. to
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个女孩太小了。她不能去上学。根据句意可知,此处可以合并为“这个女孩太小了而不能去上学”,too...to...表示“太……而不能……”,固定搭配。故填too;to。
54. He has lived in Beijing for 5 years.(对划线部分提问)
________ ________ has he lived in Beijing?
【答案】 ①. How ②. long
【解析】
【详解】句意:他已经在北京住了5年了。 对“for 5 years”表示的时间段提问,用疑问词How long; 原句为现在完成时,助动词has保留在主语前。
55. My father bought me a new bike yesterday. (改为被动语态)
A new bike ________ ________ for me by my father yesterday.
【答案】 ①. was ②. bought
【解析】
【详解】句意:昨天我父亲给我买了一辆新自行车。原句为一般过去时,主动语态。改为被动语态时,原句的宾语“a new bike”作主语,谓语动词用“was/were+过去分词”。由于“a new bike”是单数,且时态为一般过去时,故用“was”,动词“bought”的过去分词仍为“bought”。
