37. -What was the party like ? -Wonderful . It is years _____ I enjoyed myself so much .
A. after B. when C. before D. since
答案是D项。英语中"It is + 时间"后三种不同的用法。其一是:"It is + 时间+ that …",这是强调结构的句型,如:It is always on Wednesday morning that the famous professor comes to give us a lecture about Chinese literature . (那位著名的教授来给我上中国文学课总是在星期三上午);其二是:"It is +一段时间before …",这一句型的意思是:完成这个从句所发生的事所需的时间量,如:It is about a week before a Londoner can get a letter you post in Beijing today . (一个伦敦人要收到你今天在北京寄出的一封信需要一个星期的时间。);其三是:"It is +一段时间+since …"这一句型表示的是从从句中动词的动作起所延续的时间。关于since这个词的内涵,详见前面的第20小题。
36. I caught the last bus from town , but Harry came home ______ that night .
答案是B项。形容词或副词的比较级在一般情况下使用在明示比较句中,但有时也使用在暗示比较句中。暗示比较现象往往出现在带有but的并列句里,或带有让步状语从句的主句里。第一分句交代的是暗示某种程度的被比对象,在第二分句里以比较级的形式出现。又如:Great as are his achievements , his ideal and spirit are still greater . (他的成就非常了不起,但他的理想和精神更伟大。)
35. We will take _____ wants to go there for a sight-seeing .
A. whoever B. who C. anybody D. all that
答案是A项。whoever有两个词义,(1)no matter who,在这种用法时引导一个让步状语从句,如:Whoever ( = No matter who ) it is , I do not want to see them . (无论他是谁,我都不想见。),又如:The business would be a success , whoever ( no matter who ) owned it . (这个企业准能兴旺发达,甭管谁是它的主人。);(2)anybody / that,在这种用法时,它连接一个名词性从句,在本题中它连的是主语从句,又如:I will take whoever ( anybody that ) wants to go to that beautiful park . (我要带任何想去那个美丽公园的人去那里。)在这一例句中whoever连接的是一个宾语从句
34. I think the doctor is able to care of _____ is the matter with your son .
A. all B. what C. whatever D. anything
答案是C项。与前面第19题的考查点whoever一样,whatever也具备两个意思,其一是no matter what , 引导让步状语从句;其二是anything that , 引导名词性从句,在本题中,Whatever 引导的是一个宾语从句,whatever在这个宾语从句被用作主语。
33. Let us not waste ______ time we have left .
答案是A项,一般地说,不定代词many , little或few前是不许使用定冠词的,但是如果它们修饰的名词有特指或限定意义时,它们前面就应使用定冠词了。如:I soon finished the few books she had lent me . (她借给我的那几本书,我很快就看完了。)又如:We must make full use of the contradictions among the enemies , winning over the many and opposing the few . (我们必须充分利用敌人的内部矛盾,争取多数,反对少数。)
32. _____ in thought , he almost ran into the car in front of him .
A. Losing B. Having lost C. Lost D. To
答案是C项。过去分词有三个用途:(1)表示被动,如:the oppressed people ( = the people who are oppressed ) 被压迫的人们,又如:the exploited class ( = the class that is exploited ) 被剥削阶级;(2)表示完成,如:the fallen leaves ( = the leaves which have fallen ) 落叶,又如:an escaped prisoner ( = a prisoner who has run out of prison ) 一个逃犯;(3)表示状态,如:a broken window ( = a window that is broken ) 一扇破窗子,又如:lost in thought陷入沉思。
31. ______ to somebody , a British person after shakes hands with the stranger .
A. Introducing B. To introduce C. To be introduced D. On being introduced
答案是D项。很明显,句中的空白处应 选用非谓语动词的被动形式。如果将C项填入空白处,虽然这个不定式是被动形式,但不定式短语处于句首或是充当目的的状语,或是充当含有虚拟意义的动名词时,其意为:"一…就…",但如介词on后带被动态的动名词,除上述意义外,还可表示:"在…的时候"。D项答案的这个意义正符合上面句子的句意。
30. Do you consider it any good _____ the truck again ?
A. to repair B. repairing C. repaired D. being repairing
答案是B项。在这个句子中it是形式宾语,如果这样的句子中出现了any good , no good , any use 或 no use,就该使用动名词来作句中真正的宾语。
29. The bad weather meant ______ the rocket launch (发射) for 48 hours .
A. delaying B. having delayed C. to delay D. to have delayed
答案是A项。mean后既可以跟不定式(mean to do sth),又可以跟名词mean doing sth,便两者内涵是有很大区别的,前者表示"故意去做;诚心去做"而后者表示"意味着要做"。据此两个不定式的选项应予以排除。虽然句中有表示延续一段时间的时间状语,但句意是:恶劣的天气意味着火箭的发射要耽搁四十八小时,"耽搁"这一动作没有也不能发生在谓语动词meant之前,所以C项也必须排除掉。
28. She was afraid _____ the dog in case it became dangerous .
A. of exciting B. to excite C. that she excited D. to be exciting
答案是B项。be afraid后面既可以跟不定式be afraid to sth又可以跟动名词be afraid of doing sth , 但前者的意思是:害怕/不敢做某事;后者的意思为:对可能出现的结果的发愁或忧虑,试比较以下两个句子: She was afraid to wake up her husband . ( perhaps because she feared that he would be annoyed or angry ) 她不敢唤醒她的丈夫。(可能因为她害怕他会不高兴或生气) She was afraid of waking up her husband . ( perhaps because he was ill , or in need of extra sleep )她担心吵醒了她的丈夫。(可能因为他生病了或需要一些额外的睡眠)
