完成句子
1． The problem has______simply because you didn’t follow the product instruction.
A．raised B．risen C．arisen D．aroused
正确答案：C

2． We’ve______a lot of time and effort in this plan, and we don’t want it to fail. A．invited B．invested C．involved D．invented
正确答案：B
解析：(A)invite表示“邀请”；(C)involve表示“包含，包括；牵连，使卷人”，我们常见到be involved in，表示“参加……活动”；(D)invent表示“发明，创造”。
3． The manager of the factory sent me an e-mail saying that he would visit us______next spring.
A．sometimes B．some time C．some times D．sometime

4． His generous donation______our need for additional funds in this project. A．felled B．fueled C．filled D．felt
正确答案：C
解析：(A)fell是及物动词，表示“砍倒(树木)，打倒(某人)”；(B)fuel可以作名词和动词，作动词时意思是“为……供给燃料”；(D)felt是feel的过去式，为不及物动词，多表示“感觉”。
5． I’m sure that all the______teachers and ______ students are enjoying the film very much.
A．women; girls B．women: girl C．woman; girls D．woman; girl
正确答案：B 解析：这句话的意思是说，我确定所有的女教师和女学生都很喜欢这部电影。此题主要考查名词作定浯时的单复数使用原则。当woman和man作定语表示名词的类别时，注意其单复数和后面名词的单复数保持一致，woman这个词是个不规则名词，其复数是women；其他名词无论被修饰的名词是单数还是复数，一律用单数形式，所以正确项是(B)。
6． I hope there is______for the lawyer in your jeep. A．room B．place C．seat D．corner
正确答案：A
解析：这句话的意思是说，我希望你的吉普车上还有律师的位子。there be句型缺少主语，而且be动词是第三人称单数，主语应该为可数名词的单数或不可数名词。(A)room表示“空间”时为不可数名词，与space意思相近，是正确项。
7． This agency is meant to help bosses find suitable______. A．employ B．employees C．employers D．employment
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，这个中介旨在帮助老板们找到适合的雇员。此题考查对employ派生词的掌握。(B)employees表示“雇员”，是正确项。
8． Political______sometimes looks like the performance on the stage. A．act
B．action C．actor D．actress

解析：(A)act作名词，表示“行动，行为；表演；法案”等。(C)actor表示“演员，男演员”；(D)actress表示“女演员”。
9． Plastics is a kind of______ which is widely used in industry nowadays. A．mass B．substance C．matter D．material
正确答案：D

10． The computer system gives the user quick and easy______to the required information.
A．means B．approach C．channel D．access
正确答案：D 解析：这句话的意思是说，计算机系统让使用者能方便快捷地获取所需的信息，需要选择一个能跟to搭配的名词。(D)access表示“接近，进入，获得，利用”等，常和介词to搭配使用，是正确项。
11． Tom and John, ______, went to the Forbidden City in Beijing. A．them B．themself C．themselfs D．themselves
正确答案：D
解析：英语中反身代词用作同位语时，往往是为了加强名词和代词的语气，例如：The novel itself has glaring faults．
12． We will discuss the project between ______after the meeting. A．our B．ours
C．ourselves
D．ourself
正确答案：C
解析：(A)our是第一人称复数的形容词物主代词；(B)ours是第一人称复数的名词性物主代词；(D)ourself无此用法。
13． He rose up, grinding his teeth, pale and with fury in______looks. A．x B．the C．his D．him
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，他站起身，咬牙切齿，脸色苍白，满脸怒气。在英语当中，在表示一些身体部位的名词前，我们一般要用my，his，her等物主代词，但是如果出现在介词短语中，则可以用定冠词the，比如：He hit him in the head／stomach，所以正确项是(B)。
14． This isn’t our contract with his company. ______is being under discussion. A．Our B．Ours C．He D．Its
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，这不是我们和他公司签的合同。我们的合同正在审议中。题目中缺少主语，英语中的人称代词可以作主语的q有主格和名词性物主代词。根据上下文，这里缺少的是ours，即相当于our contract，可知正确项是(B)。
15． If you want to get to the town, you can take______ of the three ways as you please.
A．each B．any C．either D．every
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是，如果你想去这个镇，你走哪条路都可以。从语境上看，从答话人的语气分析，应是“哪条路(任何一条路)郡可以”，(B)any表示“任何(一个)”，是正确项。
16． The teacher asked us if______is in this office. The monitor answered that Bob and Tim had asked for leave today.
A．everybody B．somebody C．anybody D．nobody
正确答案：A
解析：这句话的意思是说，老师问大家是否都在办公室。班长说Bob和Tim今天请假了。此题考查对几个不定代词的区别。(A)everybody“大家都在办公室”与答语相配，是正确项。
17． Mr. Thompson bought______uniform in the shopping mall which we live about an hour from.
A．a B．an C．the D．x
正确答案：A
解析：(B)是干扰项，开头的字母u虽然是元音字母，但是开头的是半辅音／i／。
18． It was so warm a day that he decided to go to the sea. And that was______exciting journey.
A．a quite B．quite a C．an quite D．quite an
正确答案：D
解析：(B)是干扰项，如果单独修饰journey，用不定冠词a，但是这里出现了一个形容词exciting，以元音音素开头的，就不能再用a了。
19． Beyond______stars, the astronaut saw nothing but space. A．the B．any C．x D．one
正确答案：A
解析：(C)是干扰项，有考生可能觉得stars是泛指，并非特指，但是读完整个句子，我们便会发现这些星星应该是特指宇航员眼前的星星。
20． Many people are still in______habit of writing foolish things in public places.
A．a B．x C．the D．an
正确答案：C
解析：(A)是干扰项，第一次提到的可数名词一般用不定冠词a或者an，但是如果有修饰成分加以限定，这就属于特指的，需要加定冠词the。
21． ______ set of products has its own code, and we can recognize them easily. A．Every B．Each C．All D．None
正确答案：B 解析：虽然(A)every后也接单数名词，但通常强调全体，意为“每个，所有”；(C)all表示“全部的，总的”，动词用复数；(D)none多数情况下用作代词，表示“没有人，没有任何东西”。
22． Even if what you say is correct, there are still______considerations. A．another B．others C．other D．the other
正确答案：C
解析：这句话的意思是说，即使你说的是对的，也还有一些其他的因素要考虑。本题考查other不同形式的区别。(C)other作为形容词，意为“其他的，另外的”，是正确项。
23． On our way home yesterday, we talked about______subjects as the weather. A．those B．these C．the D．such
正确答案：D
解析：除such外，其他的指示限定词还包括this，that，these，those等。
24． He had many acquaintances, but had ______close friends in this city. A．a few B．little C．few
D．a little
正确答案：C
解析：这句话的意思是说，在这个城市里，他有很多相识的人，却没有几个好朋友。(C)few指“很少的，不多的”。常常修饰可数名词复数，在句中表示否定的含义，是正确项。
25． Jane was always speaking highly of her role in the play,______, of course, made the others unhappy.
A．that B．it C．which D．this
正确答案：C
解析：这句话的意思是说，Jane常常把自己在剧中的地位看得过高，这当然使其他人感到不高兴。此题考查的是非限制性定语从句，也叫描述性定语从句；要修饰的是前面整个主句的内容，且用逗号与主句隔开。当先行词在从句中作主语的，一般用关系代词which来引导，所以正确项是(C)。
26． The size of the audience,______we had expected,was well over one thousand.
A．whom B．who C．as D．that
正确答案：C
解析：这句话的意思是说，观众的数目正如我们之前预料的那样，远远超过了一千人。(C)as作为关系代词，这里表示“正如，正想”，指代的内容是主语，在从句中做动词expect的宾语，所以是正确项。
27． Parents should well know the fact______all children are unruly at times. A．what B．which C．as D．that
正确答案：D
解析：这句话的意思是说，家长们应该了解这个事实，即所有的孩子都会时不时的任性。本题要注意区分定语从句和同位语从句。定语从句修饰的先行词必须在从句中担任一定的句子成分，而同位语从句是用来说明先行词的具体内容的，其先行词在从句中不担任任何句子成分，多用连词that引导。显然题中的从句是用来说明解释fact的具体含义的，不是修饰它的，所以正确项是(D)。
28． ______ on earth is his attitude is still unknown to the public. A．That B．What C．Who D．Which
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，他的态度到底是什么，大家对此仍然一无所知。句中主语从句缺少一个连词，而且该连词应指物，所以只有(B)what是正确项。注意on earth这里是加强连词what的语气的，表示“究竟，到底”。
29． That’s the reason______Ann could not do her job. A．what B．of
C．because D．why
正确答案：D
解析：这句话的意思是说，这就是Ann不能做工作的原因。先行词是the reason，后面为定语从句，先行词在从句中作原因状语，所以该处应该使用关系副词why表示原因，有时可以用关系代词that代替，也可以将其省略。
30． He’ll never forget the days______ he lived in the countryside, which is a great help to his writing.
A．that B．when C．which D．where
正确答案：B
解析：此题中的which引导非限定性定语从句，此类从句中的关系代词不能出现that，更不能出现what。
31． I feel______that the movie we saw last night is well worth seeing once again.
A．strong B．strongly C．hardly D．hard
正确答案：B 解析：这句话的意思是说，我坚信我们昨晚看的电影值得再看一遍。题中that引导的是一个宾语从句，由此可以判断feel在此不是一个连系动词，而是一个实
义动词，所以修饰动词要选择一个副词。
32． Be careful! That knife is very______. A．fast B．hard C．quick D．sharp
正确答案：D
解析：这句话的意思是说，小心，那刀子十分锋利。形容刀子锋利，常用形容词sharp，所以正确项为(D)。
33． A man who can’t beat his own______record will cease to find pleasure in this occupation.
A．primitive B．previous C．preliminary D．predominant
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，一个人，如果不能打破自己之前的记录，将不会在这个领域中找到乐趣。注意四个单词从拼写角度看，比较形似，要注意区分。(B)previous表示“以前的，先前的”，是正确项。
34． The boy was so______that they could fool him easily. A．incredible B．credulous C．credible D．creditable
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，这个男孩是如此轻信别人，他们可以很容易就欺骗他。(B)credulous表示“轻信别人的，易受骗的”，是正确项。
35． ______totally in the wrong and the other completely in the right. A．Seldom one side is B．Seldom one side has C．Seldom is one side D．Seldom has one side
正确答案：C
解析：(B)和(D)两项用has使句子无主语，故不正确。
36． ______ when I have just opened my blog, the telephone was ringing.
A．Seldom B．Rarely C．Hardly D．Barely
正确答案：C
解析：(A)seldom，很少，不常，表示频率，反义词often；(B)rarely表示“很少地，难得地，少见地”；(D)barely仅仅，刚刚，几乎不能，强调勉强够数。
37． He would rather stay______ at home than participate the evening party. A．lonely B．alone C．lonesome D．lone
正确答案：B
解析：这句话的意思是说，他宁愿一个人待在家里也不愿意去参加晚会。此题考查的是跟alone相关的形似河辨析。(B)alone表示“独自一人”，既是形容词又是副词，可做宾语补足语或状语。例如：He went there alone．他独自一人去那里的。
38． We have a full recognition to clients’ request and adjust______to make sure our services reach or surpass their expectations.
A．corresponsively B．correspondingly C．correspondent D．correspondancely
正确答案：B
解析：(A)和(D)无此词，(C)correspondent作名词表示“通讯员，记者”，作形容词表示“符合的，一致的”。
39． I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Paris. It was______than I expected. A．far more interesting B．a lot much interesting C．even much interesting D．so more interesting
正确答案：A 解析：注意英语中有些形容词由于其本身的词义而不可能有比较级，常见的有：right，excellent，wrong，perfect，final，entire，absolute，universal，utter，vital等。
40． Professor Germaine has written some long stories, but he is______ known
for his plays.
A．the best B．more C．the most D．better
正确答案：D 解析：这类题提醒我们有些比较级后面没有明显的标志，比如没有连词than，我们要注意识别并根据句意具体判断。
