In 1834, the clock tower in London was burned down. People planned to buil d a new clock which would be the biggest and the best in the world. So the clock had to be big and keep very good time. Several years later the tower was finished. The people put the big clock in the tower, and made it ring out for the first time on July 11, 1859.
In order to give the big clock a good name, people held a meeting. Someone wanted to call it the Queen of Bells , and someone thought Victoria was good . At last, a man named Benjamin Hall stood up. He was a big man. Before he started to speak, someone shouted, “Why not call it Big Ben?” Everybody laughed and agreed with him.
From then on, Big Ben became its name. And it also became a famous building of London. People all over the world write to Big Ben. They even send bottles of oil to help keep Big Ben running. Big Ben is not only a clock but also a dear friend of people.

D.a man who attended the meeting which was held to make a name for the big clock 答案及解析。
1. C 解析:本题从第一段最后一句便可得知答案。 2. B 解析:本题从第二段最后一句可推断出答案。
3. B 解析:本题是推断意思的题目,是阅读理解题中的难点。这类推断短语意思的题目要通读划线部分整句及前后一句基本上就可以得出答案。前一句提到人们希望这个钟应该是‘biggest and the best’,这与后文的句子是对应的。Big对应biggest, eep very good time与the best对应。对clock而言,the best就应该是时间很准,所以选B。这类题目一般都直接看不出意思,要通过上下文判断。
4. C 解析:本题为判断正误题,而且选的是错误的选项,应该把每个选项都看过,逐一排除。文中提到人们写信给big Ben但并没提到人们希望能收到回信,所以C选项错误。 5. D 解析:本题通过通读二三段可得出答案。

一、 单项选择
1. Jim usually ____ home at 5 o’clock every afternoon. A .reaches B. gets to C. arrives in D. arrives at 2. Lucy knew nothing about it ____ her mother told her. A. because B. until C. if D. since 3. Hawaii is famous ____ its beautiful beaches. A. to B. as C. for D. at

5. Though Mike meets great trouble in English, I believe he can ____it _____because he is always hard-working.
A. turn; over B. get; over C. take; over D. look; over 答案及详细解析
1. A 答案:本题考查动词的用法。四个选项都有到达的意思,但此时,home是副词,不能跟在介词后,所以只能选BCD。如果是get home,或是arrive home都是可以的。
8
2. B 答案:本题考查状语从句的引导词,until是直到的意思。前句中有Nothing,其实可以把本句当做not—until的句型理解。意思是,直到她妈妈告诉他,她才知道这件事。 3. C 答案:本题考查短语用法,be famous for因——而出名,是固定用法。 4. C 答案:本题考查量词的用法,在英文中量词是没有单复数的,比如所2000,应该是two thousand。但有一个用法是thousands of 表示成千上万的意思,是概数,类似的,hundred, million都有类似的用法。本题中用millions of 表示成百上千万的。Of后如果是棵树名词的话应该是复数。
5. B 解析:本题考查动词词组,这属于比较难的英语题型了,中考会出现。Turn over意思是翻转,get over有克服(困难--)的意思,take over意思是接替,接管,look over 有审阅,查看的意思。B最合适。 二、 完形填空

9
1. C 解析:have to有‘不得不’的意思,由于雾厚,所以司机们是不得不开的很慢。
2. D 解析:hardly是几乎不的意思,这事一个半否定的词。这个词是小升初常考词,常在反义疑问句考题中出现,需要特别关注。
3. A 解析:本题考查状语从句连词的用法,if表示如果,引导条件状语从句。 4. B 解析:本题考查上下文,从下文可以推断出本题讲的是一场很严重的雾,应该选thick.
5. C 解析:worst是bad的最高级,表示最严重的。 6. A 解析:smog是不可数名词。Much可以修饰不可数名词。 7. B 解析:上句提到很多人变得不健康,可以退出雾是很危险的。 8. B 解析:下文中提到人们都尽量带在家里,说明街道应该是空的。
9. D 解析:本题考查动词意义,lift有(云雾等)消散,停止的意思。如果对这个意思不了解,也完全可以用排除法很容易的做出。 10.D 解析:as a result of---由于—的结果。

6.American fast food seems_______ (be) the most popular in the world. 7.My mother made me ______(clean) my room all by myself yesterday. 答案及详细解析
1. will be 解析:句末明显的时间标志,next year,应该用一般将时,will+动词原形。 2. has collected 解析:这是现在完成时很经典的句子,由since引导时间状语或是时间状语从句。更常考的是,since加过去时的句子,主句用现在完成时的情况,比如说:He has lived China for 4 years sice he moved here in 2005.
3. helps 解析:本题有标志词always,用一般现在是,要注意主语是第三人称单数,动词要用单三形式。
4. playing 解析:would you mind +doing sth,动词的这类用法需要不断积累和归纳。
5. was dancing 解析:本题中的状语从句由while引导,强调的是同时性,应该用进行时,由于主句中用了过去时态,后文应对应的使用过去进行时。 6. to be 解析:固定用法,seem to,好像—后面直接跟动词原形。
