完成句子
1.The total number of the unemployed in that region has remained_______ the same for the past five years.
A.about
B.near
C.close
D.similar
正确答案:A
解析:最好记住remain about the same(几乎保持不变)这个词组。
remain是“S+V+P”形式的动词,the same是表语,它们之间的about是副词。
表示“几乎,大概”的意思。
其余的选项主要是作为形容词使用。
2.The entire morale among the employees in Factory B _______ until now ever since the introduction of our new flexible working hour system.
A.were boosted
B.had been boosted
C.boosting
D.has been boosted
正确答案:D
解析:空格内应填入谓语动词(这里需要单数形式的动词)。
因为后面没有宾语,所以要考虑被动语态。
最后,注意到和ever since的搭配,应选择现在完成时。
另外,until now(直到现在)也是使用现在完成时的根据。
3.Students also, either through course work or outside activities, tend to be involved in the vigorous and_______ life of the city.
A.open
B.varied
C.fascinated
D.regular
正确答案:B
解析:通过课内学习和课外活动,学生们参与到城市中充满活力的、“多彩的”生活中去。
本题具有一定难度,需要理解整个句子的意思才能解题。
4.The skin of the sheep is the most _______ cherished materials by world-famous briefcase designers.
A.wide
B.widest
C.widely
D.wideness
正确答案:C
解析:在“the most(副词)______cherished(形容词)materials(名词)”这个结构中,空格内应填入修饰cherished的副词。
词义也应仔细分析,因为有时也会出现“形容词+形容词+名词”的结构。
5.Waterloo University itself makes a significant _______ to the creative activity of the village through its outstanding faculty and students.
A.input
B.gift
C.contribution
D.donation
正确答案:C
解析:本题的选项都是意义相近的词语。
这时如果知道make a contribution to 这个词组,解题就十分容易了。
它表示“为……做贡献”。
在记忆英语单词时,如果能把单词放在词组里记忆,实力就能立刻得到提升。
6.BTPS Corp. has an optimistic view on this year’ s______strategy to reduce its tax liability.
A.finance
B.financial
C.financed
D.financing
正确答案:B
解析:这里很容易看出应填入形容词,但B、C、D选项都可以做形容词!既有原本就是形容词的,也有起形容词作用的分词,要怎么选择呢?虽然都是源自同一单词的形容词,但意义上也有细微的差异。
也就是说。
这时必须从语感上的差异入手。
如果实在不能判断,那么有一个做题技巧,就是选择原本就是形容词的那一个。
但这毕竟是应试的权宜之计,还是得把单词的意义都掌握才行。
7.Not getting enough sleep at night will make you feel_______the next day.
A.exhausting
B.strained
C.sleeping
D.tired
正确答案:D
解析:make是使役动词,动词原形feel做它的宾补,但feel也需要一个形
容词做表语。
这个表语是修饰宾语you的。
feel tired表示“感到疲倦”。
如果A 选项是exhausted,C选项是sleepy则都可以入选。
8._______ furniture, if removed from the office, must be authorized by an officer in charge.
A.A
B.Here is
C.Any
D.In case
正确答案:C
解析:首先应该知道furniture是不可数名词,所以不定冠词a/an不可以用。
看到句中的must be…和if removed,就能知道B选项和D选项应被排除。
any 既可以搭配单数、复数形式名词,也可以搭配不可数名词。
在肯定句中表示“任何”。
9.Customer service representatives must know how to avoid becoming_______ with demanding customers.
A.arguable
B.argumentative
C.argumentatively
D.argument
正确答案:B
解析:B becoming虽然是动名词,但仍然需要表语,所以应在A选项和B 选项之中选择。
两个选项都是形容词。
其中argumentative最合适。
在这里意为“好争论的”。
arguable意思是“可论证的”。
10._______you did send your weekly statement on the progress of the bid, it was still regretful that you did not attend the meeting.
A.Moreover
B.However
C.Even if
D.Unless
正确答案:C
解析:句中有两对S+V,所以空格内应填入连词。
C选项和D选项都是引导状语从句的连词。
词义上even if更合适。
11.The publishing company will ask whether you will renew_______ subscription to its magazine or not.
A.your
B.yours
C.you
D.yourself
正确答案:A
解析:名词前面如果用代词。
就用形容词性的物主代词。
如果是用于“S+V+IO+DO”句式的动词,经常在做IO的名词后面直接再加名词做DO。
renew 是“更新”的意思。
12.Thanks to wireless LAN technology, it is possible for our employees to work_______they are, regardless of their current location.
A.whenever
B.whoever
C.whatever
D.wherever
正确答案:D
解析:所有选项都是连词。
A选项和D选项是复合关系副词。
当从句是完整句子时使用;B选项和C选项是复合关系代词,当从句不是完整句子时使用。
句中的they are是“S+V”的形式,所以“无论何地”比“无论何时”更合适。
13.The conference organizer has ______about the agenda but cannot provide help for hotel reservations.
A.inform
B.informed
C.to inform
D.information
正确答案:D
解析:如果选B选项或C选项,后面必须有表示人的名词做宾语,否则就不能用主动语态。
have还可作为及物动词,表示“有”。
所以D选项可以做它的宾语。
14.You must complete the enclosed form and return it within 30 days of purchase_______you may activate the one-year replacement guarantee.
A.what
B.which
C.because
D.so that
正确答案:D
解析:空格内应填入引导状语从句的连词,所以在C选项和D选项中选择词义合适,并且能和后面的may搭配的词语。
so that…may/can是“以便”的意思。
15.The librarian has requested that any _______ books or periodicals be
returned by the end of the month.
A.overdue
B.spacious
C.vulnerable
D.previous
正确答案:A
解析:句中说,“超过期限”的书或期刊必须在月底之前归还。
overdue意为“过期的,迟到的”。
16.Membership points earned at K-Mart are not transferable to K-Clothing Outlets, as they are two_______businesses.
A.isolated
B.detached
C.independent
D.unrelated
正确答案:C
解析:不能转让会员积分的原因是什么?是因为那两家公司是“独立”经营的。
所有选项的词义都有相近的地方,要记住它们的用法。
17.Her aptitudes as a secretary are without parallel in our office, so I recommend her without_______.
A.reservation
B.description
C.representation
D.expectation
正确答案:A
解析:本题具有相当的难度,除了需要把握整个句子的脉络,还必须知道without reservation(毫无保留地)这个短语。
这需要平时通过多做第7部分的练习,多读英语文章来积累。
18.If they had solicited ideas for this party earlier, it would certainly _______ more successful then.
A.be
B.be being
C.have been
D.had been
正确答案:C
解析:本句是虚拟语气。
对过去完成的事情的假设。
所以would后面应填入“have+P.P.”。
合适的答案只有C选项。
虚拟语气只要稍加留心,任何人都能答对题目,并不是很难。
所以请一定掌握。
19.An authorization from the head of human resources department is needed for_______to each employee’ s personnel files.
A.accessing
B.access
C.accessory
D.accessed
正确答案:B
解析:空格在for的后面,所以应填入名词。
A是动名词,而及物动词access 做动名词的时候后面要接宾语,所以接介词to是不行的。
正确答案是名词access。
名词的后面加to是可以的。
20.The merger contract will take effect _______after the two CEOs from each company signs it.
A.immediately
B.imminently
C.extensively
D.initially
正确答案:A
解析:immediately after是“……之后立刻”的意思。
immediately还可以替代为shortly,soon,right等词语。
把after换成before当然就变成反义词。
21.The market research report contained enticing forecasts for stock markets _______proved completely wrong.
A.in which
B.of which
C.that
D.what
正确答案:C
解析:空格后的proved是从句中的谓语动词。
空格填入的单词必须同时做连词和prove的主语。
A选项和B选项都是“介词+名词”,不符合条件。
因为前面有先行词,所以what也不行。
22.A very _______ line of women’s apparel is being offered at a reduced rate to help subsidize charitable organizations.
A.diversified
B.disrupted
C.beneficial
D.disqualified
正确答案:A
解析:选择形容词,要从它和它修饰的名词之间的关系入手。
diversified line 意为“多样化的产品”。
23.Customers seem to have been quite contented with the features of the new mobile phone_______in July.
A.introduce
B.introduced
C.introducing
D.introduction
正确答案:B
解析:空格内应填入非谓语动词。
在B选项和C选项之中,考查与被修饰的名词mobile phone之间的关系。
手机是“被引进”的动作对象,所以应使用被动语态。
可能有人会误以为mobile phone和D选项组成复合名词,但复合名词的使用范围是有限的。
24.Soaring oil prices and a shaky market in the wake of Hurricane Katrina _______those hopes.
A.suppressed
B.elevated
C.lessened
D.soared
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查动词的用法。
空格后面有宾语,所以排除不及物动词soar。
其余选项就要通过分析词义来选择答案了。
类似油价飞涨,这种不好的因素是会suppress(压抑)希望的吧?
25.The automobile industry is facing difficult challenges in an_______ competitive global market.
A.increasing
B.increasingly
C.increase
D.increases
正确答案:B
解析:空格在“形容词+名词”前面,所以填入副词是最合适的。
这样的题目千万不要做错。
26._______progress in segregating alcoholics from ordinary people, most countries see little change in the number of alcoholics.
A.While
B.On account of
C.To
D.With all
正确答案:D
解析:空格后面的progress是名词,因为句中的“主语+动词”结构只有一个,所以空格内应填入介词。
在B、C、D选项中,应选择词义上最合适的wittl all。
despite=in spite of=with all=for all,把它们全都可以看成一个介词。
27.A more _______, strategic view of global sourcing is starting to emerge.
A.enlightened
B.enlightener
C.enlighten
D.enlightenment
正确答案:A
解析:乍看之下很容易认为空格内应填入名词。
但如果填入名词,就和后面的名词view重复了,所以不能填入名词。
空格内应填入修饰view的形容词。
28.The companies deliver products faster at lower costs and are better able to compete_______anyone in the world.
A.for
B.against
C.to
D.through
正确答案:B
解析:compete是不及物动词,很自然地想到后面应接介词,但不要光记住一种用法,而是应该根据句子的不同而分别处理。
compete for是为了得到某物而竞争。
本句中说的是“与任何人竞争”,因此选择against。
29.Few big companies have tried all these options_______.
A.yet
B.already
C.too
D.finally
正确答案:A
解析:所有选项都是副词,在这里要选择用在否定句里的选项。
由于few表达的是否定的含义,在所有选项中,只有A选项表示“还没有……”,用于否定句。
其余选项都用于肯定句。
30.This_______a small firm like ours to compete with multinational companies on a very global basis with very low costs.
A.offers
B.becomes
C.accepts
D.allows
正确答案:D
解析:看到后面的宾语和to不定式,就知道这里是一个“S+V+O+OC”的句式。
选项中只有allow能用在这一句式中。
请牢记“allow+宾语+to do”这一词组,它表示“允许某人做某事”。
31.According to the report, the number of jobless women_______receiving welfare is increasing sharply.
A.no
B.yet
C.however
D.not
正确答案:D
解析:空格后的receiving是修饰women的现在分词。
分词有动词的性质,所以应由副词来修饰。
B、C、D选项是副词,从句意上来看最合适的是not。
32.The material in this information is confidential, and any reproduction or _______is prohibited.
A.redistribution
B.repetition
C.recurrence
D.retrospective
正确答案:A
解析:句中说到关于保护机密信息的内容。
说这份资料的复制和“再分配”都是禁止的。
从语法点入手积累英语知识是很重要的,同时多读、多接触此类英语文章的重要性也不亚于此。
33.This would allow our customers to get ________ information about new product releases, and upcoming sales.
A.every
B.more
C.those
D.few
正确答案:B
解析:空格后的information是不可数名词。

more既可以搭配复数可数名词,又可搭配不可数名词。
34.In 1990, over 50 million Americans were working at the_______wages of
any nation in the world.
A.high
B.highly
C.higher
D.highest
正确答案:D
解析:空格内应填入形容词,所以A、C、D选项都有可能。
相比较的对象是世界上所有其他的国家,所以应使用最高级。
在比较两个以上的事物时应使用最高级,比较两个事物时使用比较级。
35.It is the excellent screenplay and superb cast of characters that make the movie so________.
A.excitedly
B.excitement
C.exciting
D.excited
正确答案:C
解析:注意看前面的makes。
make主要用于“S+V+O+OC”句式,所以空格内应填入形容词做宾补。
C选项和D选项是形容词,同时被修饰的对象movie 是物,所以应该用-ing的形式。
另外,当人是被修饰的对象时,用-ed的形式。
在使用表达感情的动词时,要记住这个要领。
36.The projected expenses for a new facility can be given only_______, extensive research and necessary calculations are completed.
A.after
B.although
C.for
D.on condition that
正确答案:A
解析:空格内应填入连词。
所有选项都可以做引导状语从句的连词。
表示“只有在……之后”的only after是常用的短语,在这里最符合句意。
37.Ms. Andrew had difficulty understanding _______the customer was trying to communicate to him.
A.how
B.what
C.whether
D.why
正确答案:B
解析:前面的understand是及物动词,空格后是名词性从句。
所有的选项都
可以引导名词性从句,但除了B选项之外,其他的都是在完整句子中使用的。
communicate做及物动词使用时,后面应接宾语,所以本句中的名词性从句是不完整的。
38.The marketing company could cut its losses sharply in the last quarter due to a big jump_______revenues.
A.for
B.over
C.cross
D.in
正确答案:D
解析:空格前面的jump是解题的关键提示。

39.Rebates are_______after purchase at regular sticker prices.
A.redeemable
B.refundable
C.regretful
D.retrospective
正确答案:A

43.
A.authority
B.identification
C.regularity
D.consent
正确答案:D
解析:本题考查复合名词的用法。
这里应填入的词语意为“同意书”。
这也需要理解句子整体的意思才能解题。
近来,第6部分的出题倾向是:需要把握句子整体意思的题目,比只看空格前后便可解题的题目要多。
因此,提高解读速度是终极策略。
To develop a marketing strategy begins with identifying and analyzing a target market.This step (144) listing common characteristics of the group of people the seller wants to reach.

45.
A.that
B.when
C.where
D.what
正确答案:D
解析:空格内应填入引导名词性从句的连词。
句末的in后面没有宾语,从句是不完整的句子。
因此,正确答案是what。
其余选项都可以做引导名词性从句的连词,但都应用于完整句子中。
46.
A.these
B.which
C.where
D.any
正确答案:B
解析:空格前后构成“疑问词+名词+to不定式”的形式,空格及后面的内容起名词的作用。
原本是“疑问词+主语+动词”的结构,现在省略成了“疑问词+to do”。
选项中which和where是形容词,可以与store这一名词搭配的是which。

51.
A.convenience
B.convenient
C.conveniently
D.convene

52.
A.access
B.affordability
C.impact
D.contribution
正确答案:A
解析:A with easy access to表示“可轻松地得到……”。
