2．The discovery of gold in Australia led thousands to believe that a fortune ________.

A．is made B．would make C．was to be made D．had made

解析 句意：在澳大利亚发现黄金这件事情使成千上万的人相信要发财了。thousands在此处指代成千上万的人，由led的时态可知A项不符合句意；而had made为过去完成时，发生在led动作之前，不符合语境；would make应该为would be made；故只有was to be made正确。 答案 C

4．—The train will arrive at the station at midnight! —Don't worry.Ben ________ on the platform waiting for us. A．will be standing B．has stood C．would stand D．had been standing

解析 句意：——火车半夜到站！——不用担心，Ben那时将正在站台上等我们。本题考查时态。由句意可知，Ben将会在火车到达时正在站台等我们，故用将来进行时。 答案 A 5．The big fire, which burned down two buildings，________ hundreds of people losing their homes.

解析 句意：我父亲已经外出两个月了。我想在他下周回来时为他做点特殊的事情。考查时态。由后半句中的“下周回来”可知“我父亲到现在已经外出两个月了”，故用现在完成时。 答案 B

7．Although this area is very poor just now，its ________ wealth is great. A．prevalent B．potential C．previous D．profound

解析 potential潜在的，符合题意。prevalent普遍的，盛行的，流行的；previous先前的；profound深刻的，深奥的。 答案 B

8．You've failed to do what you ________ to and I'm afraid the teacher will blame you.

A．will expect B．will be expected C．expected D．were expected

解析 句意：你未能做到大家期望你做到的事情，恐怕老师会责备你的。既然是“have failed”，那么“期望”应是发生在过去的事情，要用一般过去时；而you和expect之间是被动关系，故选D项。 答案 D 9．They are building factories ________ a grand scale, and some are under ________. A．on；construct B．on；construction C．at；construct D．at；construction

解析 on a grand scale大规模地；under construction在建设中。 答案 B 10．The palace caught fire three times in the last century, and little of the original

building ________ now.

A．remains B．is remained

C．is remaining D．has been remained

解析 句意：这座宫殿在上个世纪发生过三次火灾，其最初的建筑现在几乎所剩无几。首先remain为系动词，没有被动语态形式，排除B、D两项；remain一般不用于进行时态，故选A项。 答案 A

11．She strongly suggested that the information________in her report________to the chief editor without delay.

A．to be referred to；to be e-mailed B．referring to；e-mail C．referred to；be e-mailed

D．being referred to；being e-mailed

解析 考查非谓语动词和被动语态。空一refer to与the information之间存在动宾关系，且动作已经结束，故用过去分词形式作定语；空二e-mail与主语the information也是被动关系，且主句谓语suggest表示“建议”，从句谓语采用be e-mailed，前面省略了should。 答案 C

12．He tried to deal with the ever-increasing burden of his work，but finally________and had to take a complete rest. A．broke away B．broke up C．broke down D．broke out

解析 break away“脱离；打破”；break up“分解；解散”；break down“分解，失败，出故障，(身体/精神)垮掉”；break out“(战争、火灾等)突然发生，爆发”，由句意可知选择C项。 答案 C

13．It's quite a long time________he got injured，but it won't be long________he returns to the court.

A．since；before B．after；when C．before；since D．that；when 解析 句意：自从他受伤已经有一段时间了，但是用不了多久他就会重返球场。空一考查“it is＋时间段＋since从句”，空二考查“It won't＋be＋时间段＋before从句”，表示“用不了多久”，所以A项正确。 答案 A

14．It________to rain a lot here in the spring. A．attends B．trends C．tends D．tendency

解析 句意：这里的春天往往雨水很多。考查tend to do sth相当于be likely to do sth，意为“趋向于”；A项不符合题意；B、D两项为名词，意为“趋向，趋势”，不符合题目要求。 答案 C

15．The knife isn't sharp，and it needs________. A．being sharpened B．sharpening C．to sharpen D．sharpen

解析 句意：这把刀不锋利，它需要磨了。sharpen用作动词，在此意为“(使)变得锋利”，

由sth needs doing/to be done句式可知，B项正确。 答案 B Ⅳ.完形填空 Comparing is competition's twin. Comparing yourself to others is __1__ but bad news. Why? Because we're all on different __2__ timetables.

解析 从后面一句话“The big question was who is wearing what today.”可以得出此处只能用dressed。 答案 C

8．A.simple B．well-known C．unforgettable D．unspoken

解析 句意：在衣着上甚至有一些不言自明的原则。simple简单的；well-known著名的；unforgettable难忘的，都不符合句意。unspoken说不出的。 答案 D

9．A.must B．sign C．symbol D．note

解析 句意：衣服必须是名牌，牛仔裤必须名贵。must作可数名词，意为“必须做的事”；sign征兆；手势；标志；symbol符号；note便条，笔记。 答案 A

10．A.self-conscious B．unhappy C．unsatisfied D．self-confident

解析 由上文提到“每个人都注意衣着”和下文说“A voice said to me...”，可以推断作者开始“感到难为情了”。self-conscious害羞的，不自然的；unhappy不高兴的；unsatisfied不满意的；self-confident自信的。 答案 A

解析 how come是口语，相当于why，但后面的从句用陈述语序。 答案 D
