历年英语专业四级单项选择题真题整理及答案解析
历年英语专业四级单项选择题真题整理及答案解析2006年51. __dull he may be, he is certainly a very successful top executive.A AlthoughB whateverC AsD However正确答案为D). however引导的让步状语从句,意思是无论(怎么样),从句需要倒装,即However+adj/adv+主+谓. However dull he may be=Dull as he may be. although和as引导让步状语从句,指”尽管”, w hatever用来引导名词从句,意思是: 无论什么. 句意: 无论他多么地令人感到乏味.他还是一位非常成功的顶级行政人员.52. If only I __play the guitar as well as you!A wouldB couldC shouldD might正确答案为B). could表示能够,是一种能力. If only引导的虚拟语气,表示”要是…．该多好啊!”. 句意: 要是我能像你那样把吉他弹得那么好该多好啊!53. The party, __I was the guest of honour, was extremely enjoyable.A by whichB for whichC to whichD at which正确答案为D). at which. 先行词the party作介词at的宾语. 即I was the guest of honor at the party. 关系代词指代the party.54 It's high time we __ cutting down the rainforests.A stoppedB had to stopC shall stopD stop正确答案为A). stopped. It is (high) time的意思是到了做…的时候了. 从句中一般用过去时构成虚拟语气. 此句型为历年专四考试常考句型.55 The student said there were a few points in the essay he __ impossible to comprehend.A has foundB was findingC had foundD would find正确答案为C). had found. 考察定语从句的时态. 定语从句中的”找到问题”这一动作发生先于主句动词said,所以用had found构成过去完成时.56 Loudspeakers were fixed in the hall so that everyone__ an opportunity to hear the speech.A ought to haveB must haveC may haveD should have正确答案为C). may. so that引导目的状语从句,表示为了让每个人都有机会听到讲座. 其他选项均不符合题意. ought to have done=should have done本应该做而实际未做. must have done表示对过去的肯定猜测.57 I am surprised__ this city is a dull place to live in.A that you should thinkB by what you are thinkingC that you would thinkD with what you were thinking正确答案为A). 本句中should表示惊讶语气, 故不能省略. 句意:你居然会认为在这个城市居住是很无聊的,这点让我很惊讶.58 Susan is very hardworking, but her pay is not__ for her work.A enough goodB good enoughC as good enoughD good as enough正确答案为B). enough修饰形容词副词时需要后置, 且不能和as结构连用.59 It is imperative that the government __ more investment into the shipbuilding industry.A attractsB shall attractC attractD has to正确答案为C). attract 考核的是虚拟语气的用法. It is imperative that sb (should)+do/V, should可以省略. 该句型在专四考试中极为常见. 句意:当务之急是征服应该吸引更多投资到造船业.60 Land belongs to the city; there is __ thing as private ownership of land.A no such aB not suchC not such aD no such固定用法. 意思是: It is impossible to …．正确答案为D). no such. Ther e is no such (a) thing as…没有…. e.g. There is no such a thing as free lunch. 天下没有免费的午餐.61 My daughter has walked eight miles today. We neverguessed that she could walk__ far.A /B suchC thatD as正确答案为C). that=so. 那么,如此. The weather today is not that cold as is reported.6２The statistics __ that living standards in the area have improved drastically in recent times.A provesB is provingC are provingD prove正确答案为D). prove. statistics表示数字数据时谓语动词用复数. The statistics prove/show that…,这里表示的是一种客观状态,没有明显时态标志,所以用一般时态.63 There are only ten apples left in the baskets, __ the spoilt ones.A not countingB not to countC don't countD having not counted正确答案为A). not counting. 伴随状语. 表示不把…计算在内.=not including.64 It was __ we had hopedA more a success thanB a success more thanC as much of a success asD a success as much as正确答案为C). 这题是本年专四语法考试中最难的一道题目. as much of a …as是固定结构,类似的结构还有more of a …than, less of a…than, 如果是这些比较结构,则名词只能放在比较结构中, 如: It was as much of a success as I had hoped. He is more of a sportsman than hisbrother. We can let you have as many copies as you need. 所以选项A的正确形式应该是moreof a success than…, B选项只能将名词置于比较结构中间.65 There used to be a petrol station near the park, __?A didn't itB doesn't thereC usedn't it?D didn't there正确答案为D). 考察反意疑问句. there be 的反意疑问句就用there来进行反问.66 It is an offence to show __ against people of different races.A distinctionB differenceC separation D.discrimination正确答案为D). discrimination歧视. show discrimination against sb歧视某人distinction区别,差别. difference不同, separation分开. 句意:对不同种族的人表现出歧视是一种冒犯行为.67 A great amount of work has gone into __ the Cathedral to its previous splendor.A refreshingB restoringC renovatingD renewing正确答案为B). restoring:使…恢复到以前面貌, 通常和to连用. refresh使…精神爽快, renovate更新,革新. renew更新68 The thieves fled with the local police close on their __.A backsB necksC toesD heels正确答案为D). heels. on/at one’s heels紧跟在某人后面. 固定搭配,句意为:小偷逃跑了,当地的警察紧随其后追赶. fled逃走，逃掉( flee的过去式和过去分词)；逃离，逃避。
