Ⅱ.单项填空
从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
1.Juice that comes from tomatoes is called________.
A.tomatoes juice
B.juice of tomato
C.tomato juice
D.tomatoes' juice
答案:C
解析:本题是名词作前置定语修饰另一个名词,除man和woman外,一般多用单数形式,也不用所有格。
2.The reason________he came late was________he got stuck in a traffic jam.
A.that; that
B.why; because
C.why; that
D.for which; because
答案:C
解析:先行词是reason时,后面的定语从句中关系词若作原因状语的用why;另外,the reason is后的表语从句用连词that引导,据上两点,本题只有C项正确。
3.He came late, which is________he got stuck in a traffic jam.
A.that
B.because
C.why
D.how
答案:B
解析:本题which is后的表语从句表示主句的原因,故用because引导;如第二题,若前面有reason时,则不能用because,而用that,这是需要加以注意的。
4.The teacher explained in detail the maths problem, but________none of the students could understand it.
A.almost
B.nearly
C.near
D.nearer
答案:A
解析:almost与nearly在意义上比较接近,但almost可以与no, none,nothing等否定词连用,而nearly则不可。
5.The maths problem is not________so difficult as you think.
A.enough
B.almost
C.nearer
D.nearly
答案:D
解析:上题提到nearly不可与no, none, nothing, nobody等否定连用,但nearly可与not 连用,表示“还没有”;“远远不够”。题意是:这道数学题远没有你想的那么难。
6.Tom________a match, but the light was too dim for him to see anything.
A.beat
B.hit
C.cracked
D.struck
答案:D
解析:本题主要是区别几个表示“打”;“敲”;“击”的动词。beat表示反复地撞击、敲打,hit侧重击中,strike既可表示有意地“打”,也可表示无意地撞,但对敲钟、擦火柴等特殊动作,只能用strike。
7.The football team of our class________Class Four and won the match.
A.beat
B.hit
C.struck
D.kicked
答案:A
解析:本题所要辨析的动词与上题基本相同,题中表示的是在球赛中一方击败另一方,表示比赛中打败,用beat。
8.The ship________fog on its voyage.
A.struck
B.hit
C.beat
D.touched
答案:B
解析:除了上两题中讲到的这个三个动词的一般区别外,还有一些是偶然碰上,用hit,这种用法一般用在口语中。
9.The house________we live now is the one________my grandpa built 50 years ago.
A.where; that
B.that; which
C.where; where
D.that; where
答案:A
解析:本题考查的是对定语从句结构的理解。在先行词house后的宾语从句中,关系词作地点状语,故用where;但在one后面的定语从句中,虽然one也指house;但因为其关系词在定语从句中作宾语,故用that。
10.I can never forget the day________we worked together and the day________we spent together.
A.when; when
B.that; that
C.that; when
D.when; that
答案:D
解析:本题中第一个先行词day后面的定语从句中,关系词作状语,故用when;但第二个day后的定语从句中,关系词作spent的宾语,故应该用that。
