2016年英语专业四级考试词汇语法真题

参考答案与解析

11. How can I concentrate if you _________ continually ______ me with silly questions?

A. have… interrupted

B. are… interrupted

C. had… interrupting

D. were… interrupting

选A。虽然我觉得更应该说you are continually interrupting me with silly questions。不过这里用现在完成时表示的是一个动作发生过成为过去经历，有可能多次发生，也就是打断一次、两次、三次等等不断重复到现在。

12. Among the four sentences below, Sentence ___ expresses the highest degree of possibility?

A. It may take a long time to find a solution to the problem.

B. It might take a long time to find a solution to the problem.

C. It could take a long time to find a solution to the problem.

D. It should take a long time to find a solution to the problem.

选D。四个里把握度最高的是should，其次是may，最后是

might和could。

13. She is a better speaker than _____ in the class.

A. any boy

B. the other boys

C. other any girl

D. all the girls

选A。主语是she，女的，所以不能选B。C的正确说法是any other girl。

14. Nobody heard him sing, ______?

A. did one

B. did he

C. didn’t they

D. did they

选B。根据专四语法出题依据的书《新编英语语法教程》（章振邦）317页，nobody这种附加疑问句，书面语里用he。口语里偶见they。实际上，现代英语里为了避免有语言歧视（为什么只有he，没有she），很多人都避免只用he，而多改为they。

15. I can’t put up with ________.

A. that friend of you

B. that friend of yours

C. the friend of you

D. the friend of yours

选B。根据专四语法出题依据的书《新编英语语法教程》（章振邦）57-58页，这种双重属格结构所修饰的名词可带a, any, some等表示非确定特指的限定词，但通常不带定冠词。比如a daughter of Mrs. Green’s, any/some daughters of Mrs/ Green’s。

16. There has been an increasing number of _______ in primary schools in the past few years.

A. man teacher

B. men teacher

C. man teachers

D. men teachers

选D。合成名词复数，man/woman这种，两种都要变成复数，比如women drivers。

17. This is one of the issues that deserve _____.

A. being mentioned

B. mentioning

C. to mention

D. for mention

选B。deserve后面接动名词表示被动含义。要么就说deserve to be mentioned。

18. The audience ______ excited on seeing _______ favorite star glide onto the stage.

A. were…their

B. were…its

C. was…their

D. was…one’s

选A。虽然audience这个集合名词和class, team等一样属于可单可复，但用代词回指时要保持数的一致性。所以C错了，要用its。

19. ________ your advice, I would have made the wrong decision.

A. Hadn’t it bee n for

B. Had it not been for

C. Had it been for

D. Had not it been for

选B。条件虚拟句if省略后，had、were、should要到句首倒

装。

20. The sentence “I wish I had been more careful in spending money”expresses the speaker’s ______.

A. hope

B. joy

C. regret

D. relief

选C。wish这里引导的是虚拟句，我当时花钱应该更小心点。

21. The Attorney General ordered a federal autopsy of Brown’s body, seeking to ___ the family and community there would be a thorough investigation into his death.

A. ensure

B. insure

C. assure

D. ascertain

选C。assure somebody that/ assure somebody of something指to tell someone that something will definitely happen or is definitely true so that they are less worried，也可以用reassure。Ensure是make sure的意思，后面不能接somebody。Ascertain 是find out

22. The police department came under strong criticism for both the death of an unarmed man and its handling of the ____.

A. consequence

B. outcome

C. result

D. aftermath
