　　题解与分析：

　　这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述的是一位妻子在临终前登广告为她丈夫寻妻的事情。

　　1.C. 由于妻子病重，所以她说她会离开她丈夫和儿子的。这里tell的意思是“告诉”，live with的意思是“与……一起生活”，leave的意思是“离开”，take care of的意思是“照顾”。这里用leave比较合理。

　　2.D.妻子的意思是想为丈夫寻找一位合适的女人。根据所给的词语，look at 的意思是“看”，hear from的意思“收到某人的来信”，find out的意思“找出或发现真相”，look for 则表示“寻找”。

　　3.A. 妻子刊登广告的目的是想要一位新人在她离开人世后取代她的位置，因此这里用place最佳。

　　4.B. 这里的意思是年龄应在35至38岁之间。about是“关于”的意思，of则表示“……的”，among的意思是“在多者之中”，between则表示“在两者之间”。

　　5.B. 妻子的意思是想让那位女人成为她丈夫的新妻子，即“第二任妻子”。

　　6.A. 根据前句"The advertisement has a P.O.Box number"可知这里介绍的是广告的内容，所以应该用代词it替代前面的the advertisement。

　　7.C. 这里一定是在说她丈夫不吸烟也不喝酒，这是两个相互对应的词语。

　　8.D. ill 的意思“生病的”，change的意思是“改变”，dead的意思是“死的”，dying的意思是“将要死的，快死的”。由于这是在临终前妻子做出的决定，所以这里使用dying最合理。

　　9.B. very much是一个固定搭配。

　　10.A. another 指多者中的某一个，the other强调两者中的另一个。所以这里用another最佳。

　　(77)

　　Hundreds of years ago, life was (1)_______ than it is today. People didn't have modern machines. There was no modern machines, either.

　　题解与分析：

　　这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍的是污染的种类和对人类的影响以及人们所采取的措施。

　　1.C. much 与比较级连用可以表示“……得多”。hard 的意思是“艰难的”，hardly的意思是“几乎不”。所以这里应该使用much harder。

　　2.D. 现代生活已经给人类带来了许多新的问题，所以这里使用现在完成时态比较合理。

　　3.B. 由于噪音，致使我们说话的声音越来越大。这里用talk最佳，应为其他几词没有这曾含义。

　　4.A. 空气污染所影响的是所有的东西。every 的意思“所有的”，它强调整体；each的意思是“每个”，它强调个体；它们后面都加单数名词。all 的意思是“全部的”，most则表示“大部分”。所以这里用every 最佳。

　　5.A. 由于空气污染太严重，所以这些被污染的空气就像被子一样笼罩在城市的上空。介词over表示“在……正上方”。

　　6.C. 这是一句被动语态，意思是“这种被子被称做烟雾。”。

　　7.D. 污水必须在排放之前被净化，这里还是被动语态。

　　8.A. 这是一个否定的祈使句。

　　9.D. 根据下句"there will be less pollution" 可知这里应该用比较级。

　　10.C. enough应该放在它所修饰的形容词或副词之后，这里是用形容词做表语的。

　　(78)

　　Someone say "Time is money.", but I think time is (1)______ important than money. Why? Because when money is spent, we can get it back. However, when time is (2)_______, it'll never (3)______. That is (4)________ we must not waste time.

　　It goes without saying that the (5)_______ is usually limited. Even a second is very important. We should make full use of our time to do (6)_______ useful.

　　But it is a pity that there are a lot of people who do not know the importance of time. They spent their limited time smoking, drinking and (7)______. They do not know that wasting time means wasting part of their own (8)_______.

　　In a word, we should save time. We shouldn't (9)_______ today's work for tomorrow. Remember we must (10)_______time.

　　( )1. A. much B. most C. many D. much more

　　( )2. A. lost B. bought C. gone D. finished

　　( )3. A. return B. carry C. take D. bring

　　( )4. A. what B. that C. because D. why

　　题解与分析：

　　这是一篇议论文，文章主要论证的是时间的重要性。

　　1.D. 这里是一个多音节词的最高级用much加以修饰的结构，意思是“更加重要的”。

　　2.C. 这里所指的时间是失去的时间，lost的意思是“丢失的”，bought的意思是“买”，finished 的意思是“完成”，gone 的意思是“失去的”，所以这里用gone比较合理。

　　3.A. 时间失去后是永远不会再来的，return的意思就是“返回”，carry表示“搬运”，take表示“带走”，bring表示“带来”。

　　4.D. 因为时间失去后是永远不会再来的，所以我们不应该浪费时间，这里用why表示原因。

　　5.B. 时间是有限的，这是一个基本的常识。

　　6.B. 我们应该充分利用时间去做一些有用的事情，everything的意思是“每件事情”，anything可以表示“任何事情”，nothing是“没有任何事情”。我们在一定时间内不能把所有的工作完成，所以此处用something(一些事情)比较合理。

　　7.C. smoking, drinking, playing都是浪费时间的做法。

　　8.D. 浪费时间就是浪费生命。

　　9.B. leave在这里的意思是“遗留”，其他几个词中stop表示“停止”，let表示“让”，give表示“给”。在意义上用leave 是最合适的

　　10.B. 我们必须要节约时间的。这是全文的中心思想。

　　题解与分析：

　　这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍的是美国的国旗和国民的情况。

　　1.C. 美国占了北美洲的一大部分，北美洲的说法是North American continent。

　　2.C. 介词后应该加名词，代词或动名词做宾语，这里使用动名词winning做介词after的宾语。

　　3.A. 这里用一般过去时态即可，这根据下句"new stars were formed"可知答案。

　　4.B. 这是there be结构的一般过去时态。

　　5.C. for加上时间段表示时间延续，而in加时间段多表示“在将来某段时间之后”，from的意思是“从……”，through则表示“通过”。

　　6.D. more用于数字之后表示“又有多少个……”的意思。

　　7.D. 印第安人是美国的最早的居民。

　　8.B. 由于很多美国人的祖籍是英国，所以英语就成了美国的主要语言了。

　　9.A. 根据前面"It is for that reason that the language of the U.S. is English"可知这里也应该用that才对，这是前后对应的。

　　10.B. 美国的文化习惯与英国的文化习惯是很相似的。as 的意思是“作为”，like 的意思是“像……一样”，same的意思是“相同的”。因此这里用like最佳。

　　题解与分析：

　　这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了游泳中的呼吸问题以及出现问题的原因和解决方法。

　　1.A. 这里用men表示“人”的意思。这种用法很常见。

　　2.C. take in 的意思是“吸入，呼入”，get in 表示“收获”，其他两个词则没有这种搭配。因此此处用take最佳。

　　4.A. keep doing …的意思是“持续做……”。

　　5.B. 在水下，游泳者一般通过嘴进行呼吸的。

　　6.A. 如果在水下用鼻子进行呼吸，水就会被呼入肺部。这里用get in表示这一含义。get out 的意思是“出来”，get off的意思“从……下来”。
