答案及解析

单项选择

21.D。 动词时态的考查。当我去看他时，他正要去北京参加抗击非典，所以只跟他

说了几句话。情景是他正要去。又因为come，leave，arrive等动词的进行时表将来时，

故答案为D.

22. B。 本题是“特殊疑问词 + do you consider／suppose／think／believe．．．+

陈述语序的句子其它成分”结构。根据第一句，可知强调了对现在的影响，故用现在完成

时。学生易错选A、C。误选C是因为consider后应接动词ing形式，而忽略了句子的结

构，即没有考虑到consider后面接的是宾语从句，从句的主语是what，缺少的是从句的

谓语；选A是因为没有考虑到从句的时态应该用现在完成时。

23. B。 此题考查主语从句，其主语从句缺少主语，What在此等于the thing which，

故选B项。

24. C。 remain作系动词用，本身不用于被动语态，有时与不定式的被动结构构成合

成谓语，意为“尚待”。如：A number of problems remain to be solved.

25. D。 It’s reported 意为“据报道”，it为形式主语，后面的that从句才是真正

的主语。如果要用选项A、B、C表示“据报道” 的话，那它们后面只能跟不定式。

26. C。 考核点是状语从句。从句子结构上判断，有划线的那一分句属于状语分句，

从句子意义上判断，该分句应为地点状语，故而答案应为C。

27. A。 问句为否定疑疑问句，回答该用Yes或No开头，B项结构不完整，其完整

形式应该是：No, I can hardly finish it.

28. B。 not与all连用为部分否定，表示“并非所有的……都……”；D项中every one

与not连用也可表示部分否定，但谓语动词要用单数。

29. B。 next month是时间点，不是时间段，“after + 时间点”可用于将来时，表

示某一特定时间之后。此处如果不用介词，则表示“下个月”；用了after，则表示“下个

月以后”。until在肯定句中要与延续性动词连用。

30. B。 现在分词的完成被动式作原因状语，说明发生在谓语动词所表示的动作之前

的被动动作。

31. A。 否定副词never放于句首，构成倒装句，时间状语应用陈述语序。

32. A。 needn't have done表示“做了不必要做的事情”。can't have done表示

对过去情况的推测， 意为“不可能发生了某事”。mustn't have done 无此用法。shouldn't

have done表示“本不应该做的事而做了”。

33. B。 第一空白处的that为关系代词，引导定语从句；第二空白处的that为强调结

构连词。

34. C。 世贸大厦是由普通名词构成的专有名词，其前应使用定冠词。shock在这里

意指“令人震惊的事”，为可数名词。

35. B。 quite后应接a few。advice为不可数名词，使用that替代。
