untidier【解答】答案B 根据than可知需用比较级，答案A和C分别为原级和最高级，故可排除答案A和C；untidy的比较级表达式是untidier，不是more untidier，故可排除答案D．故答案选B．4．（1分）﹣Where is your father，Helen？﹣He is trying to _____a new shower in the bathroom．（）A．put

me后面是跟一个宾语从句，宾语从句中应该用陈述语序，即主语+谓语，排除D项；根据答句可知不是问原因，故排除C项；do为及物动词，其后应接宾语，故选A项．6．（1分）Whoever has ______ sense knows that smoking is harmful to one's health．（）A．usual B．general C．useful D．common【解答】答案：D．首先明确选项中每个单词的意思，A：通常的；B：一般的；C：有用的；D：共同的；根据题干结合推测句意是"有点常识的人都知道吸烟有害于健康．"，由此判断句子中缺少"common"一词，短语common sence意思是"常识"，故答案为D．7．（1分）﹣How nice that Lucy has been invited to the party

C．has handed D．had handed【解答】答案：B根据He told me that，可知He told me that 后面是跟一个宾语从句，宾语从句的时态应该和主句保持一致，主句用的是一般过去时态，从句应该用相应的过去时态．根据句意：他告诉我他想检查一遍就把它尽快交上来．还没交上来，应该用一般将来时will hand，但是宾语从句的主句是He told me that 是一般过去时，从句应该用相应的过去时态，即过去将来时would hand．故选：B．10．（1分）The large grassland，reaching out far away，looks extremely beautiful _____the blue and clean sky．（）A．against B．above C．through D．past【解答】答案：A 根据主语"grassland"（草地）和"the blue and clean sky"（蔚蓝的天空）可知草地不可能在天空之上，故排除above（在…之上）；草地不可能从天空内部穿过，故排除through（从内部穿过）；past为超过，against 以…为背景，衬托着．故选A．11．（1分）﹣How was your voluntary work in Africa？﹣﹣Oh，amazing experience!I'll never forget it!（）A．what B．what an C．how D．how an【解答】答案：B．根据amazing experience!可知这里考查了感叹句，本句的中心词是experience，它是一个可数名词的单数形式，amazing是一个形容词，在这里修饰experience，amazing[əˈmeɪzɪŋ]这里是以元音音素开头的单词，加冠词的话应该用an，根据What+a/an+形容词+可数名词单数+主语+谓语!故选B．12．（1分）It's really you to drive through the red light．It's so dangerous!（）A．crazy for B．crazy of C．wise for D．wise of【解答】正确答案：B．crazy是疯狂的、不理智的，wise是聪明的、有智慧的．英文中It is+形容词+of/for sb．+to do sth．表示做某事对某人来说怎么样，如此处的形容词是表示人的性格或品质特征的，应用of，如是表示事物的属性特征，则用for．句意是你闯红灯驾驶真是太疯狂了，这太危险了，crazy是形容人的品质，故选择B．13．（1分）Kate felt uncomfortable in the deep armchair on the plane，she？﹣﹣，but she was still very excited．（）A．did Yes B．did No C．didn't Yes D．didn't No【解答】答案：C．此题考查反意疑问句的用法，反意疑问句一个大的原则就是前面陈述句是肯定的，后面疑问句用否定；前面陈述句是否定的，后面疑问句用肯定．Kate felt uncomfortable in the deep armchair on the plane的felt是实意动词，时态是一般过去时，前面是肯定形式，所以后面相应的用助动词did，而且用否定形式，Kate 用代词she代替；再根据but she was still very excited可知，但是她仍然很兴奋，回答要和事实一致，这里所叙述的事实是肯定的即感到不舒服，所以用Yes回答．故选C．14．（1分）﹣﹣﹣Tom，you are caught late again．﹣﹣﹣Oh，．（）A．not at all B．just my luckC．never mind D．that's all right【解答】答案：B根据"you are caught late again"可知，汤姆最近运气不怎么好．A 一点儿也不；B 就是这么倒霉；C 没关系；D

Alida？D．A．For about 45minutesB．For about 10monthsC．For over 3yearsD．For over 2years27．The best title to explain the main idea of the text is"A"A．Hero petsB．Small petsC．Kids'friendsD Special visits．【解答】25．B．细节理解题．根据Three﹣year﹣old Alida Knobloch and her 27kg golden dog，Mr．Gibbs可知Alida拥有的是一只狗，A错误，根据When Lois Brady，a famous doctor in America，visits special﹣needs students in San Francisco schools，she often brings along Buttercup，a black pig from Vietnam．可知，Lois Brady对应的是Buttercup，为一只黑猪，B正确，Lois Brady的职业是一名医生，C错误；根据Jupiter，a 13﹣year﹣old 250kg lion，可知，Jupiter是一只狮子；26．D．细节理解题．根据Three﹣year﹣old Alida Knobloch and her 27kg golden dog，Mr．Gibbs，are almost together all the time．可知，Alida现在是3岁；根据Alida，who suffered from serious lung （肺）disease when she was 10months old，可知，Alida10个月大的时候患上了很严重的肺病，此时她就必须携带氧气罐了，而文中说So Mr．Gibbs has been with her everywhere，carrying 4.5kg of oxygen tanks for her．携带氧气罐的就是Gibbs，因此Gibbs跟着女孩应该不到三年，两年多，因此选择D；27．A．文章主旨题．根据文中的内容，讲述了三个不同的故事，都是说明动物（宠物）在人类的生活中发挥着重要的作用，无时无刻的在帮助人、照顾人，因此文章的标题就是Hero pets；28．（6分）I met the old man at a cafe．"Did you hear the radio news yesterday？"he asked me．"No，"I replied．"Anything exciting？""Exciting？NO!Something very sad．A group of hungry dogs killed and ate my best friend!""Oh，dear!"I cried．"How did it happen？""He was working on the hillside when the dogs attacked him．When he didn't return，I went to the hillside and found…""His body？"I asked．The old fellow drank half of his coffee．"No．I told you they were hungry dogs，didn't I？The big bones were lying every where．But they found this，"He pushed open a match box he was holding in his hand．In it was a man's thumb，lying on some white bloody material．"This is my friend's right thumb．The dogs ate the rest of him"．The old man began to cry．He finished his coffee quickly and left the cafe．I drank mine and called the waiter．"I'll pay the gentleman's bill．His poor friend﹣﹣how terrible!""You've heard the news？"The waiter laughed．"Sure．There's a hole in the bottom of the match box．He puts his own thumb through the hole．The blood is red ink，I believe．Is the story worth a cup of coffee，sir？""But he held the box in his right hand．""Yes，but listeners look into the box．They just can't take their sight off that terrible thing．""And when he tells the story，he gets free cups of coffee!"I said，laughing．"Yes，sir，but only from strangers who come to this town，and，of course，he does us no harm!"28．We can learn from this passage A．A．the writer came to the cafe for the first
