1. 【C1】

正确答案:E

解析:从句子结构上看,空格位于when引导的时间状语从句中。空格前为从句的主语以及副词first,空格后为时间状语,由此推断出,空格处需要一个谓语动词。结合句意可知,当这座大楼于1962年首次修建时,它被薄薄的方形石头所覆盖。备选项中只有constructed(建造,修建)符合句意,故答案为E。

2. 【C2】

正确答案:O

解析:空格前为be动词was,空后无单词,故本空需要填入一个动词过去分词形式表被动。结合句意可知,这些小方形石头成了建筑的一个问题,40年来一直从表面脱落,直到进行了大规模的翻修。备选项中只有undertaken(从事,

开始进行)与前文衔接紧密,故答案为O。

3. 【C3】

正确答案:F

解析:空格前为句子主语,空格后为名词词组the solar panel company,因此空格处需要填入一个动词作谓语。结合句意可知,在这次翻修期间,大楼的业主——独立国家联合体——咨询了太阳能电池板公司。备选项中只有consuhed(咨询)符合句意,故答案为F。

4. 【C4】

正确答案:M

解析:空格前为形容词最高级largest,空格后为介词of,故本空只能填入一个名词。结合句意可知,2004年,翻修后的独联体大楼拥有欧洲最大范围的垂直太阳能电池板。备选项中只有range(范围)与上下文衔接紧密,故答案为M。

5. 【C5】

正确答案:N

解析:空格前为形容词large,空格后为谓语动词has,故本空需要填入一个名词。结合句意可知,如此大规模的垂直太阳能项目自此之后就再也没有出现过。备选项中只有scale(规模)符合句意,故答案为N。

6. 【C6】

正确答案:I

解析:空格前为be动词was,空格后为动词overtaken,句子结构完整,故空格处只能填入一个副词。结合句意可知,在翻修工程之后的很长一段时间里,独联体大楼是英国最高的建筑,但最终被米尔班克大楼所取代。备选项中,只有eventually(最终)符合句意,故答案为I。

7. 【C7】

正确答案:K

解析:空格前为be动词的否定形式aren’t,空格后为形容词cost-efficient,故本空需填入一个副词来修饰形容词。结合句意可知,对投资者来说,像这样的绿色建筑并不一定是划算的。备选副词中,只剩下necessarily与not构成搭配not

necessarily,意为“未必”,故答案为K。

8. 【C8】

正确答案:L

解析:空格前为名词energy,空格后为介词through,故本空需要填入一个

名词且与energy构成名词词组。结合句意可知,绿色建筑所产生的污染确实比通过化石燃料生产能源所造成的污染要少得多。备选项中只有production(生产)与前文相照应,符合句意,故答案为L。

9. 【C9】

正确答案:A

解析:空格前为动词get,空后无单词,故本空需要填入一个形容词作表语。结合句意可知,随着太阳能电池板越来越便宜,世界上可能会有更多的摩天大楼被太阳能电池板覆盖。备选形容词中只有cheaper(更便宜的)符合上下文,故答案为A。

10. 【C10】

正确答案:J

解析:空格前为介词of,空后无单词,故本空需要填入名词。结合句意可知,建造最高的摩天大楼并不是为了攀比高度,而是为了收集最多的太阳能。备选项中只有height(高度)与摩天大楼相呼应,符合句意,故答案为J。

Neon (霓虹) is to Hong Kong as red phone booths are to London and fog is

to San Francisco. When night falls, red and blue and other colors【C1】______a hazy

(雾蒙蒙的) glow over a city lit up by tens of thousands of neon signs. But many of

them are going dark,【C2】______by more practical, but less romantic, LEDs (发光二极管). Changing building codes, evolving tastes, and the high cost of

maintaining those wonderful old signs have businesses embracing LEDs, which are

energy【C3】______, but still carry great cost. “To me, neon represents memories of

the past,” says photographer Sharon Blance, whose series Hong Kong Neon

celebrates the city’ s famous signs. “ Looking at the signs now I get a feeling of

amazement, mixed with sadness. “ Building a neon sign is an art practiced by【C4】______trained on the job to mold glass tubes into【C5】______shapes and letters. They

fill these tubes with gases that glow when【C6】______Neon makes orange, while

other gases make yellow or blue. It takes many hours to craft a single sign. Blance

spent a week in Hong Kong and【C7】______more than 60 signs; 22 of them appear in

the series that capture the signs lighting up lonely streets—an【C8】______that makes

it easy to admire their colors and craftsmanship. “I love the beautiful, handcrafted,

1. We realized that he was under great______, so we took no notice of his bad

temper.

A.excitement

B.stress

C.crisis

D.nervousness

正确答案:B

解析:名词辨析题。stress表示“压力,紧张”,坏脾气一般与有压力有关,因此选[B]。crisis指“危机”;而nervousness指“神经过敏”,excitement指“兴奋,激动”,与句意不符。

2. The majority of nurses are women, but in the higher ranks of the medical

profession women are in a______.

A.minority

D.minimum

正确答案:A

解析:名词辨析题。minority表示“少数”;scarcity表示“不足,缺乏”;rarity表示“稀有,罕见”;minimum表示“最小值,最小量”。由于本句使用了转折连词but,所以应该在选项中找一个与majority意思相对的,也就是minority。

1. 在西方人心目中,和中国联系最为密切的基本食物是大米。长期以来,大米在中国人的饮食中占据很重要的地位,以至于有谚语说“巧妇难为无米之炊”。中国南方大多种植水稻,人们通常以大米为主食;而华北大部分地区因为过于寒冷或过于干燥,无法种植水稻,那里的主要作物是小麦。在中国,有些人用面粉做面包,但大多数人用面粉做馒头和面条。

正确答案: In the eyes of the western people, the basic food that is mostly

related to China is rice. For a long time, rice has played a very important part in

Chinese people’s diet, so that there is a proverb that goes like this: One can’t make

bricks without straw. Rice is mainly grown in southern China and people usually eat

rice as the staple food. Since it is too cold or too dry to grow rice in most areas of

northern China, wheat is the main crop. In China, some people use flour to make

bread, but for most people, it is used to make steamed buns and noodles.

1. They deferred _____ making decision until next week.

A.them

B.they

C.their

D.theirs

正确答案:C

解析:考查动名词的逻辑主语。动名词前面可以加一个形容词性物主代词、代词宾格或名词所有格作为该动名词的逻辑主语。动词如defer,deny,delay,postphone等,其后动名词的逻辑主语大都采用所有格或形容词性物主代词,因此本题答案是C。 知识模块:语法与词汇

A.subject complement

B.object

C.adverbial

D.object complement

正确答案:A

解析:考查主语补足语。本句为被动句,判断本题the right man作什么成分时,可将之还原为主动句…found him the right man for the job,him跟the right man之间存在主谓关系,因此判断the right man是him的补语,而在原句中,he为主语,故the right man为主语补足语,选A。 知识模块:语法与词汇
