【答案与解析】
I. 单项选择。

1．C。

时间段后接later表示“多久以后”。

2．D。

此处表示“刚刚被卖完”，由句中的时间状语just now知，用一般过去时态的被动语态，所以选D。

3．C。

stop...from doing sth.“阻止……做某事”，介词from后跟动词用v.-ing形式。

故选C。

4．A。

million前没有具体数字修饰时，要用复数形式，并与介词of连用，表示不确切数目，意为“数以百万计的”。

5．D。

Japanese“日语”为不可数名词，故排除A、B；由后句“你可以去问他”可知前句应用表否定的little。

第一句句意：我几乎不懂日语。

6．C。

由问句句意“所有的工作多久会完成?”知“工作”和“完成”之间存在被动关系，用被动语态，排除A、B两项；因how soon是提问将来的一段时间，故该句为一般将来时，work是不可数名词，故排除D项。

7．B。

be made of“由……制成”，由制成品可以看出原材料；be made from“由……制成”，由制成品看不出原材料；be made in“产于某地”。

而“床由木头做成”能看出原材料。

故选B。

8．B。

colour“颜色”；size“尺寸，大小”；weight“重量”；price“价格”。

由“红裙子比蓝裙子小”可推知前句为“看这个尺寸，女士”。

故应选B。

9．D。

used to do sth．意为“过去常常做某事”；be used to doing sth．意为“习惯于做某事”，皆为固定用法。

句意：王叔叔过去常常在晚饭后待在家里看报纸。

但是现在他习惯了出去散步。

10．B。

if如果；although尽管；unless如果不；until直到……才。

句意为“尽管他们可能会在赛龙舟中失败，但他们将做最大的努力”，故选B项。

11．D。

look for寻找；look up查阅；look at看；look after照顾。

根据句意“奶奶病了，我不得不在家照顾她”，可知选D。

12．B。

the old表示“老人”这一类人，谓语动词用复数，故选B。

13．C。

make在变为被动语态时要把省略的不定式符号to补出来，stop to do意为“停下来去做”，stop doing“停止做”。

句意为“最后小男孩停止哭并笑了起来”，故选择C。

14．A。

take part in意为“参加”；take off意为“起飞”；take out意为“取出；拿出”；take care of意为“照顾；照看”。

句意为“任何唱歌好的人都可以参加我们学校的活动”，故选A。

15．A。

由时间状语every day知是一般现在时，又因“它(教室)”和“打扫”之间存在被动关系，故选A。

[真题链接]
1. D。

考查动词的时态和语态。

“Everybody”与move之间存在被动关系，应用被动语态；由“they heard the story可知，应使用一般过去时，因此，此处应使用一般过去时的被动语态。

故选D。

2. D。

句意：现在在网上购物容易的多啦。

当你的订单准备好了，你想买的东西时很快就会送给你。

thing 是send这一动作的承受者，该用被动语态。

所以该用一般将来时的
被动语态形式，因此选D。

3. C。

考查动词的时态。

句意为：Paula非常高兴。

她找到了丢失的手表。

动作find发生在过去，且对现在造成了一定的影响，应用现在完成时。

故选C。

II. 完形填空。

3．D。

before意为“在……之前”，其他选项不合逻辑。

4．C。

play“玩”；move“搬”；use“使用”；put“放”。

由语境可知选use。

so that“以便，为了”，此处引导目的状语从句。
