【文章大意】一个14岁的美国男孩通过网络挽救了芬兰的一位患病的女学生的生命。【答案与解析】

1.A根据句子的结构可知此处应该使用名词，much用来修饰不可数名词，所以，正确答

案为A项。B、C项是形容词；D项interests不可以加s。

2.C由句意“一天，他正在用因特网给朋友发电子邮件”可以判断出此处的时态应该为过

去进行时was sending。A项为一般过去时；B项为一般现在时；D项是现在进行时。

3.D thousands of的意思是“成千上万，数千”。thousands of表示“数千的……”（主

要是形容东西，事物很多，数以千计)它已经不是确切的要表示“千”的意思了，若果是表示量词，比如一千（one thousand/a thousand，两千two thousand)就不用加s。

4.B考查疑问词的辨析。根据句意“我不知道我应该做什么”可知此处应该使用what表

5.C根据前句和本句之间的关系可以得知此处表示“转折”。so的意思是“所以”，表示“因

果”；and表示“并列”关系；as意思是“由于”，故选择C项。

6.B本题考查动词的辨析。telephoned表示“打电话”；replied的意思是“回答，答复”；

found表示“发现”；talked意思为“告诉”，回复邮件应该使用动词replied，因此，答案为B项。

7.B联系前句，结合句意“她周围没有电话”可以判断出此处指的是“更糟糕的是”，worse

表示“更坏的”。better表示“更好的”；harder的意思是“更坚硬的”；easier表示“更容易的”。

8.A考查固定短语的使用。get in touch with sb.的意思是“和某人取得联系”为固定搭
