参考答案及解析:
1. D【句意】太阳是星系的中心,而不是地球,在中世纪这是一个难以理解的概念。
【解析】根据句子结构我们可以看出。在was前面是一个主语从句,而主语从句必须有引导词。但A,B和C中都没有引导词,因此三个均错。D中that引导主语从句,在句中不做任何成分,只起引导词的作用,因而D是正确答案,如。That he will refuse the offer is unlikely.他拒绝这项建议的可能性不大。
2. A【句意】信不信由你,他的发现在科技界引起了震动。
【解析】believe it or not是习惯用语,常用于口语中,意为“信不信由你,我说的是真的”。如:Believe it or not,he was granted a full scholarship by Harvard University.信不信由你,哈佛大学给他提供了全额奖学金。Believe it or not,I'm feeling quite homesick.我很想家,我说的是真话。
3. C【句意】世界上有数百万种物质。
【解析】million一词做数词时不加s,如:There are two million people in that city.那座市有200万人。另外,B中的that易使人认为它要引导一个名词性从句,而且million后加s时,要和of连用,D中it is不表示“存在”之意。因此B和D错误。在there be结构中,谓语动词要和与之最近的主语在数上保持一致。句中的kinds是复数,要求其谓语动词也用复数形式。因此A错误而C正确。
4. C【句意】虽然人类现在可以创造出各种放射性元素,但是他们没有办法来减少其放射性。
【解析】while除了引导时间状语从句外,还可以引导让步状语从句,做“尽管,虽然”讲,有着强烈的对比意味,例如; While I admit his good points I can see his bad ones.虽然我承认他的优点,但我也能看得出他的缺点。whether引导让步状语从句时,通常与or连用,意为“不管……还是……”,例如。 Whether you can see the moon or not,it is always round.不管你看见与否,月亮总是圆的。 now that 意为“既然…… ”,引导条件状语从句,从句内容是既成的事实,例如: Now that you will come here,I needn't go there.既然你要来,我就没必要到那儿去了。as也可以引导让步状语从句,但是该从句一般置于主句之前,且从句内容必须倒装,例如。 Much as he likes her,he does get irritated with her sometimes.尽管他喜欢她,可有时他确实也对她发火。Try as he would,he could not lift the rock.虽然他尽力了,但仍不能搬动那块石头。
5. C【句意】对我来说,我认为一本英汉字典要比一本全英字典要好。
【解析】as for做“对……来说,就……而言”讲,如: As for her,she prefers tea to coffee.至于她, 则更喜欢茶而不是咖啡。as(so)far as意为“就……所……”如:As far as I know,there are no peaches on the market.就我所知,市场上没有桃子。as far不做为固定短语用。as regard也不做为固定短语用,坦as regards是固定短语,意思是“至于”,如:Now,as regards money,what is to be done?至于钱的问题,该怎么办?
6. C【句意】我一回来就了解到史密斯教授已经到了博物馆,几个小时不会回来。
【解析】on用来指时间,表示“在……之时”,相当于at the same time of,后跟动名词或表示动作的名词,如: On his arrival in Qingdao he set to work in earnest一到青岛他就认真地干了起来。而at,with和during 则没有这种用法。
7. D【句意】摆脱了冰的束缚,气球越升越高,飘到了南方。
【解析】根据句于结构我们可以看出,该处应使用分词短语,表示原因,因此A和B应予以排除。又因为free和balloon具有逻辑上的动宾关系,所以 C也可以排除。此处使用过去分词表示动作的被动和完成,如:Influenced by his example,they performed countless good deeds.在他事迹的影响下,他们做了无数的好事.
8. C【句意】曾经,曼彻斯特是世界上几个大棉厂的诞生地。
【解析】at one time意为“曾经,一度”。如:At one time the little girl formed the habit of visiting Einstein after school every day。有一段时间,那个小女孩养成了个习惯,每天放学后都去看望爱因斯坦。选项A,B和D都不能和one time构成短语,故只有C正确。
9. A【句意】直到最近,英国的大部分已婚妇女还没有离家工作。
【解析】before,from和since与quite recently连用,不符合语法;before quite recently一般要与过去完成时连用;from(since)quite recently一般要与现在完成进行时连用。until用在否定句中表示“直到……才”之意,如:It was not until the beginning of the century that man began to realize that it was the brain not the heart that was the center of mind.直到本世纪初,人们才逐渐认识到是大脑而不是心脏是思维活动的中心.由此可见,A是正确答案。
10. C【句意】正是从Stephen那里,他听说了被人称之为老师的那个人。
【解析】由于英语语法要求在同一个句号前,不可以有两个既不是并列关系,也不是从属关系的句子,故A不是正确答案。B,C和D都使用了强调句型,但通过运用这样一个规则“将强调句型中的it is(或was)和that(或who)省略掉,句子结构仍然应该是完整的”,就可看出只有 C为正确答案。例如:It was this very student that had shown great interest in the problem.就是这个学生曾对这个问题表现出了极大的兴趣。
