1、The teacher,___________often helps students with their homework, is very popular among the students.
A. who
B. whom
C. whose
D. that
答案：C
解析：此题考查定语从句的引导词。

由于先行词是the teacher，表示人，且在从句中作定语，所以应使用whose。

A. our
B. us
C. ourselves
D. our own
答案：D
解析：此题考查代词的用法。

3、The teacher asked us to read the story,______we found many interesting things.
A. which
B. that
C. who
D. because
Answer: B
Explanation: The correct answer is “that” because it is used to introduce a restrictive relative clause that gives additional information about the noun “story.” The clause “we found many interesting things” is essential to the meaning of the sentence and cannot be omitted.
4、He______to the party last night, but he was too sick to go.
A. was supposed to go
B. should go
C. was supposed to have gone
D. should have gone
Answer: A
Explanation: The correct answer is “was supposed to go.” The phrase “was supposed to” indicates a plan or expectation that was not fulfilled. Since the event happened in the past, the simple present tense “go” is used to describe the expected action. The other options are not appropriate for this context: “should go” implies a present obligation or recommendation, “was supposed to have gone” would imply a past obligation that was not met, and “should have gone” implies a past obligation that was not fu lfilled but with a slightly different connotation of regret.
5、Complete the sentence by filling in the blank with the correct form of the verb “be” in the present tense.
The________(be) of the world is diverse and beautiful.
Answer: is
Explanation: The sub ject “world” is singular, so we use “is” as the correct
form of the verb “be”. The sentence implies that the characteristic or state of the world is diversity and beauty.
6、Complete the sentence by choosing the correct pronoun to replace the underlined words.
________ book on the table belongs to ________.
Tom’s, his
Answer: The book on the table belongs to him.
Explanation: Since “Tom’s” is possessive and “his” can serve both as possessive and nominative/pronominal, the correct answer uses “him” as the object pronoun replacing Tom, making the sentence grammatically correct and clear. There’s no need for an apostrophe since the pronoun “his” already conveys possession.
7.In the___________(come) to the party, she felt a bit out of place.
Answer: coming
Explanation: The phrase “In the coming to the party” is a gerund phrase serving as an introductory element to the sentence. The gerund “coming” is used here as a noun to refer to the act of coming to the party.
8.If I___________(be) you, I would take the job offer without hesitation.
Answer: were
Explanation: This is a conditional sentence expressing a hypothetical situation. The correct form of the verb in the if clause is the past simple “were,” which is used to express a condition that is not true or is purely hypothetical.
9、After school, instead of_______(go) home right away, Tom
decided_______(stay) and help clean up the classroom.
•Answer: going, to stay.
•Explanation: In this sentence, “instead of” requires a gerund (-ing form), and “decided” needs to be followed by an infinitive (to + verb).
10、The teacher asked the students if they could explain_______the answer was correct.
•Answer: why.
•Explanation: The sentence requires a subordinating conjunction to introduce the clause explaining the reas on. “Why” is used here to ask for the reason or explanation behind something.

1、What are the main differences between present simple and present continuous tenses?
答案：The main differences between present simple and present continuous tenses are as follows:

2.The present continuous tense is used to talk about actions happening at the moment of sp eaking or ongoing actions. For example: “I am eating breakfast right now.”

1.Adjectives can describe nouns, adding detail and specificity. For example: “The red apple was delicious.”
2.Adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, providing more information about the action, quality, or degree. For example: “She sings bea utifully.”
ing a variety of adjectives and adverbs can help avoid repetition and make the writing more engaging.

3、Please translate the following sentence into English: “我每天早上六点半起床。

”
Answer: “I get up at half past six every morning.”
Explanation: In English, we use “get up” to express the action of waking up and rising from bed. The time “六点半” translates to “half past six,” and “每天早上”means “every morning.”
4、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in brackets: “She________(not eat) lunch at school.”
Answer: “She does not eat lunch at school.”
Explanation: For negative statements in the present simple tense about habits or facts, we use the auxiliary verb “do” (in its negative form “does not” for third-person singular subjects like “she”) followed by the base form of the main verb “eat.” Therefore, the correct form is “does not eat.”
