参考答案
Ⅰ.1.C 考查名词辨析。句意:她的微笑让我感到温暖且充满活力,就像是隐藏的宝藏。competition表示“比赛,
竞赛”;interview表示“面试;采访”;treasure表示“财富,宝藏”,tradition表示“传统”。根据句意可知用treasure。故选C。
B.SleeptoStayHealthy D.WhatSleepingAnimalsAreLike
2.C
3.A 考查动词辨析。根据“solet’sworktogethertomakeourearthclean”可知,此处指保护大自然。故选A。 4.B 5.B 6.A 7.D
8.D 考查动词时态。根据下文“Iwanttoreportit.”可知应用现在完成时,表示过去发生的事情对现在造成的影响。
故选B。
Ⅱ.(i)[主旨大意] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章记述了卖火柴的小女孩在新年的前夜,又冷又饿,光着脚走在街上,一分
钱没挣到,又害怕回家挨父亲打。在街道的拐角里,小女孩擦着火柴取暖,梦见了烤鹅和亲爱的祖母。最后,她带着期望和憧憬离开了这个世界。
9.B goalongthestreet意为“沿街”,符合语境。故选B。 10.D
11.A how引导的感叹句修饰形容词、副词;what引导的感叹句修饰名词(短语)。本句的中心词是child,且为可数
名词单数。故选A。
12.C 根据下句“Shehadearnednotacoin”可推知,她害怕回家。故选C。 13.B 根据上句“Shehadearnednotacoin”可推知,也许她父亲会打她。故选B。
14.D 根据下句“Shewantedtowarmhersmallhands.”可推知,她把她的手放在火焰的上方。故选D。 15.B 句意:她发现自己正坐在一个大铁炉子前。现在分词sitting作宾语herself的补足语。故选B。 16.A 根据下文“thestovedisappeared”可推知,火焰熄灭了。故选A。 17.C
18.A 根据上文可知,她在寒冷的街上,火焰熄灭后,她身后只有厚厚的、坚硬的墙。故选A。
19.C anotherone中的one为代词,后面不跟名词,故排除A。other意为“别的,另外的”,只能与名词复数连用,
故排除B。theother可与名词单数连用,意为“两者中的另一个”,表示特指;another意为“(三者或三者以上)的另一个”,表示泛指。根据上文“Asecondmatchwaslighted.”可推知,她擦着了第三根火柴。此处表泛指。故选C。
20.D 根据上文可推知,小女孩又冷又饿,又害怕没有挣到一分钱,挨父亲打,因此哭喊着让祖母带她走。故选D。 21.A
22.C 根据上文“shelightedallthematcheshurriedly”可推知,她想阻止她的祖母消失。wouldlike后接动词不
定式。故选C。
23.B 此处与前面是并列关系,故排除A和C。根据全文可推知,小女孩渴望到没有寒冷、饥饿和痛苦的地方。故选
B。
(ii)24.carry 25.drive 26.pollution 27.also 28.usual 29.money 30.going 31.before 32.ones
33.slower
