基础达标
一、根据句意及汉语提示填空
1．Look at the ___________(背包). Whose are they?
2．The result of the match is ______________(出乎意料). The weak team won the game.
3．—Do you like the ___________(奶油) on the bread?
—Yes,I do.
4．His mother often goes to the morning ___________(市场) to buy vegetables.
5．He lives on the fifteenth floor __________(在……上面) me three floors.
【答案】
1．backpacks 2．unexpected 3．cream 4．market 5．above
【详解】
1．句意：看看背包。他们是谁的？
根据中文提示可知，英语中“背包”是backpack，而后句中的they指代的就是前面提到的
“背包”，因后句中指代用的是复数代词they，所以这里的背包应该是多个，所以应该用
复数形式，故答案为backpacks。
2．句意：比赛结果出乎意料。弱队赢了这场比赛。
根据中文提示可知，英语中“出乎意料的”是unexpected，是一个形容词，在句中放在is
后面作表语，故答案为unexpected。
3．句意：——你喜欢面包上的奶油吗？——是的，我喜欢。
根据中文提示可知，英语中“奶油”是cream，在这里是一个不可数名词，所以不能用复
数形式，故答案为cream。
4．句意：他妈妈经常去早市买蔬菜。
根据中文提示可知，英语中“市场”是market，是一个可数名词，而这里指的是“早市”，
英语是morning market，所以这里应该填原形，故答案为market。
5．句意：他住在我楼上十五层，比我高三层。
根据中文提示可知，英语中表达“在……上面”是over或者above，而over指的是垂直正
上方，而这里指的是“高于”，并不一定是垂直的，所以应该选择above，故答案为above。
二、用所给单词的正确形式填空
6．In the world, many ___________(discover) were made with the compass' help.
7．Is the dog dead or _________(live)?
8．The meeting was __________(cancel) because of the bad weather.
9．It's not _____________(believe) that the lazy boy came to school on time.
10．He saw his father off until he _____________(appear) in the distance.
【答案】
6．discoveries 7．alive 8．cancelled 9．believable 10．disappeared
【详解】
6．句意：在世界上，许多发现都是在指南针的帮助下取得的。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“发现”，是一个名词，而所给词是一个动词，所以要
先变成名词，discover的名词形式是discovery，是一个可数名词，而空格前有many修饰，
所以这里应该用复数形式，故答案为discoveries。
7．句意：狗是死的还是活的？
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“活的”，英语是alive，是一个形容词，句中or并列的
两部分要保持一致，前面是形容词原形dead，所以后面也用形容词的原形，故答案为
alive。
8．句意：由于天气不好，会议取消了。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“取消”，英语是cancel，而句子主语是the meeting，
与动词cancel之间是被动关系，所以这里应该用被动语态，而空格前已经有was，所以这
里要用过去分词，cancel的过去分词可以双写l再加ed，故答案为cancelled。
9．句意：那个懒惰的男孩按时来上学是不可信的。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“可相信的”，英语是believable，是一个形容词，在句
中作表语，故答案为believable。
10．句意：他送走了父亲，直到他消失在远方。
根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“消失”，英语是disappear，而前句的动词用的是过去
时，所以这里也用过去时，故答案为disappeared。
三、完成句子
11．张先生捎了我一程,所以我及时赶上了会议。
Mr. Zhang _______________________, so I arrived at the meeting in time. (give)12．我们正要离开,这时突然下起雨来。
We _______________________when it started to rain. (about)
13．到这个月底以前,我们将会建完这座桥。
We'll finish building the bridge _______________________this month. (by)
14．我爸爸不是一个官员,他只是一个工人。
My father is a worker _______________________an officer. (rather)
15．到我赶到超市时,所有降价衣服都卖完了。
All the clothes on sale ___________________________by the time I got to the supermarket. (sell)
【答案】
11．gave me a lift 12．were about to leave 13．by the end of 14．rather than
15．had been sold out
【详解】
11．根据中英文对照可知，这里缺少的是“载某人一程”，英语是一个固定短语give sb a
lift，而这里说的是“载我一程”，所以这里的人称应该用第一人称，且放在动词后面应该
用宾格形式，而后句的动词是过去时，所以这里也用过去时，故答案为gave me a lift。
12．根据中英文对照可知，这里缺少的是“正要离开”，英语是be about to do，表示还没
有做的事情，相当于将来时，而后句的动词是started，是过去时，所以前面也用过去时，
而主语是we，所以be动词应该用were，“离开”是leave，故答案为were about to leave。
13．根据中英文对照可知，这里缺少的是“到……末为止”，英语是一个固定短语“by the
end of＋时间点”，而空格后面有时间，所以这里应该用by the end of，故答案为by the end
of。
14．根据中英文对照可知，这里缺少的是“而不是”，英语是短语rather than，是一个并列
连词，在句中并列的是a worker和an officer，故答案为rather than。
15．根据中英文对照可知，这里缺少的是“卖完了”，英语是sell out，而句中表达的动作
“卖完”是发生在从句的动作got to之前，从句用的是过去时，所以“卖完”应该用过去
完成时，而句子主语是All the clothes，与动作“卖完”之间是被动关系，所以应该用被动
语态，过去完成时的被动结构是had been＋过去分词，故答案为had been sold out。能力提升
一、单项选择
1．The girl sitting next to me on the plane was very nervous, for she ________ before.
A．didn’t fly B．hasn’t flown C．hadn’t flown D．wasn’t flying
【答案】C
【详解】句意：飞机上坐在我旁边的那个女孩非常紧张，因为她以前没有坐过飞机。
考查动词时态。主句用了一般过去时，原因状语从句表示“她以前从未坐过飞机”是比主
句动作更早的事情，指过去的过去，故用过去完成时。故选C。
2．—The picture of The Snowflake Boy has become very popular recently.
—Yeah, it receives ________ Internet hits a day.
A．thousands of B．thousands C．hundred of D．hundreds
【答案】A
【详解】句意：—雪花男孩的照片最近很流行。—是的，它每天收到成千上万的网络点击。
考查数词的用法。表示具体数字时，thousand和hundred都要用单数，后面不能接of，例如
two thousand/hundred；表示概数时，thousand和hundred都要用复数，并且后接of，即
thousands of或者hundreds of。根据“it receives ... Internet hits a day”可知，空格前没有数词，
这里应该用概数，表示成千上万的。故填A。
3．—Why would you like to walk_____ the forest?
—Because I want to try____.
A．across; exciting something B．through; exciting something
C．across; something exciting D．through; something exciting
【答案】D
【详解】句意：——你为什么想穿过森林？——因为我想尝试一些令人感到兴奋的事情。
考查介词和形容词位置。across穿过，是指从表面穿过；through穿过，是指从内部穿过。
根据“the forest”，可知，要从森林内部穿过，所以第一个空用through。形容词“exciting”
修饰不定代词时，要放在不定代词的后面，故选D。
4．—How would you feel if you wear the wrong clothes?
—Very________.
A．embarrassed B．excited C．surprised D．bored
【答案】A
【详解】句意：——如果你穿错了衣服的话，你会觉得怎么样？——非常尴尬。
考查形容词辨析。embarrassed尴尬的；难为情的；excited激动的；surprised惊奇的；bored
厌烦的；根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“尴尬的”，英语是embarrassed，故选A。
5．—Japanese isn't as________ as Chinese.
—Maybe，perhaps it's because Chinese is our native language.
A．easy B．easily C．easier D．easiest【答案】A
【详解】句意：-日语不像中文那样容易。-或许吧，也许是因为中文是我们的本族语言。
easy容易的，形容词；easily容易地，副词；easier更容易的，是比较级形式；easiest最容
易的，在最高级。as as之间用形容词或副词的原级，系动词be之后用形容词，故应选
…
A。

As a result, I was late for school. What was worse, when I walked into the classroom, I found Ihad forgotten to bring my homework. So I had to go back home to fetch it. Unluckily, on my way
