?、? 單項(xiàng)填空
1. The judge demanded that the prisoner ________ before him immediately.
A. be brought
B. must bring
C. should have brought

2. How can you ________ and see him accused of something he didn’t do?
A. stand out
B. stand up
C. stand for
D. stand by
答案
D
解析
考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)辨析。句意：你怎么能眼睜睜地看著他遭人誣陷而袖手旁觀呢? stand out“顯眼;突出”; stand up“站立”; stand for“代表”; stand by“袖手旁觀”。

4. Catherine ________ at school wearing a T-shirt with some slogans.
A. broke up
B. turned up
C. came up
D. ended up
答案
B
解析
考查動(dòng)詞詞組辨析。break up意為“解散;結(jié)束”; turn up意為“來(lái)到;露面”; come up意為“(植物)長(zhǎng)出地面;發(fā)生”; end up意為“最終成為;最終處于”。B項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)意。
5. The technical cooperation and cultural ________ between the two countries are daily on the increase.
A. expenses
B. exchanges
C. revenges
D. extension
答案
B
解析
考查名詞辨析。句意：兩國(guó)之間的技術(shù)合作和文化交流正在與日俱增。cultural exchange“文化交流”。expense“花費(fèi)”; revenge“報(bào)仇”; extension“延伸”。
6. The man has made ________ a rule never to regret and never to complain.
A. it
B. that
C. himself
D. this
答案
A
解析
考查代詞的用法。it是形式賓語(yǔ),后面的不定式never to regret and never to complain作真正的賓語(yǔ)。
7. — What do you think of this dress, darling?
— Er ... sorry, dear. I ________. What did you say?
A. didn’t listen
B. hadn’t listened
C. haven’t listened
D. wasn’t listening
答案
D
解析
考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)。根據(jù)答語(yǔ)中的What did you say可知,答話者沒(méi)有聽清楚對(duì)方的問(wèn)話,該用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí),表示對(duì)方剛才說(shuō)話的那一刻自己沒(méi)有聽。
8. Can you imagine what difficulty people had this year ________ against the severe natural disasters?
A. fighting
B. to fight
C. fought
D. fight
答案
A
解析
考查固定搭配。“sb. have some difficulty in doing sth.”是固定句式,意思是“某人做某事有困難”,其中的介詞in可以省略。故A項(xiàng)正確。
9. (2024·江南十校測(cè)試)________ around the Water Cube and the Bird’s Nest, the tourists from Taiwan and I wished there ________ a joint team for the London Olymplcs.
A. Having shown; to be
B. To be shown; is
C. To show; were
D. Having been shown; to be
答案
D
解析
考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。從句意可以看出the tourists from Taiwan and I與show之間構(gòu)成被動(dòng)關(guān)系,同時(shí)動(dòng)作發(fā)生在謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞wish之前,所以第一空用having been shown,而第二空是there be結(jié)構(gòu)的變體形式。
10. — I’m considering returning home. I just can’t get used to the food here.
— Take it easy. ________
A. Storms make trees take deeper roots.
B. East or west, home is best.
C. From small beginning come great things.
D. All things are difficult before they are easy.
答案
D
解析
考查諺語(yǔ)。A項(xiàng)的意思是“暴風(fēng)雨使樹根扎得更深?！盉項(xiàng)的意思是“金窩銀窩不如家里的草窩?！盋項(xiàng)的意思是“偉大始于渺小。”D項(xiàng)的意思是“萬(wàn)事開頭難。”。顯然只有D項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。
11. (2024·海淀模擬)The scientist was rewarded by the government for ________ such a great contribution to the country.
A. make
B. making
C. being made
D. having made
答案
D
解析
句意：那個(gè)科學(xué)家因?yàn)閷?duì)國(guó)家做出了巨大的貢獻(xiàn)而被政府授獎(jiǎng)。having made是現(xiàn)在分詞的完成式,表示該動(dòng)作先于主句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞was rewarded。
12. ________ suddenly occurred to him that his parents should have arrived in Beijing by this time.
A. What
B. It
C. That
D. As
答案
B
解析
考查固定句型。句意：他突然想起來(lái),他的父母現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該到北京了。此句中的it作形式主語(yǔ),后面的從句為真正的主語(yǔ)。It occurred to sb. that .... “某人(突然)想起／想到……”。
13. ________ published fifty years ago, his work still attracts much attention at present.
A. In spite
B. Though
C. Apart from
D. Despite
答案
B
解析
考查狀語(yǔ)從句。句意：盡管他的作品是在50年前出版的,但現(xiàn)在依然受到廣泛關(guān)注。此處為省略的狀語(yǔ)從句,其主語(yǔ)是his work,還原完整為：Though his work was published fifty years ago, his work still attracts much attention at present．C、D兩項(xiàng)為介詞,后面應(yīng)跟名詞或者名詞短語(yǔ),A項(xiàng)常用于in spite of短語(yǔ)。
14. (2024·衡水模擬)I’m afraid we’ll have to work extra hours for there are still some problems ________.
A. remaining to settle
B. remaining to be settled
C. remained to be settled
D. to remain to settle
答案
B
解析
句意：恐怕我們得加班,因?yàn)檫€有一些問(wèn)題有待解決。首先, remain為系動(dòng)詞,所以只能用現(xiàn)在分詞形式作定語(yǔ);remain to be done表將來(lái)、被動(dòng)含義,意為“有待于被……”,故B項(xiàng)正確。
15. ________ himself by a table, the gentleman asked the wai
ter for a cup of coffee politely.
A. Seated
B. Seating
C. To seat
D. Seat
答案
B
解析
考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意：這位紳士在桌旁坐好后,禮貌地向服務(wù)生要了一杯咖啡。seat為及物動(dòng)詞,表示“使(自己)就座”,其邏輯主語(yǔ)為the gentleman,所以用現(xiàn)在分詞形式。
?、?閱讀理解
On January 24, 1848, a man named James Wilson Marshall discovered gold in the area of California. The news spread quickly. Thousands rushed west. They traveled on foot, by horseback and by boat to reach the gold fields. By 1849, the great gold rush was on.
Towns and cities grew overnight. Throughout the area — in the mountains, along the streams and rivers — thousands of people searched for gold. They had food to eat and blankets to cover them. They also had mules to ride, and picks and pans to search for gold. But panning for gold does not always pan out.
The only way to find gold was by panning. First a gold miner put dirt in a metal pan and added water. Then he shook the pan so that the water would wash the dirt. Slowly, he poured the water out of the pan. If he was a lucky miner, pieces of gold would remain.
For many, gold mining did not pan out. For a few, it panned out well. But in time, huge machines were built that could wash many tons of dirt at a time. Panning died out.
The word, however, remained in the language. Today, Americans still say, “It panned out well,” when something they have done pleases them. A business, a discovery, a simple event pans out well if it is successful. Unhappily, sometimes things do not pan out.
In recent years, the word pan has taken on another meaning. Today, it also means criticizing. How it got this meaning is hard to discover. But the job of a critic is to sometimes pan the work of a writer, artist or singer.
Sometimes, critics may pan a movie or play so seriously that no one will go to see it. There are times, however, when a play became highly successful, even though most of the critics panned it without mercy. The pans should have washed out the play. But, as actors have pointed out, sometimes a critic’s pan turns up gold.
1. The reason why panning disappeared was that ________.
A. nobody rushed for gold any more
B. the gold-miners was extremely tired with panning
C. technology had improved
D. the gold-miners were no longer allowed to use pans
2. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. In 1849 the gold rush was very popular.
B. The life of the gold-miners was very hard.
C. A movie panned by a critic will certainly not be enjoyed by people.
D. In the beginning, panning was the only way to search for gold for the gold-miners.
3. Where can you most possibly find this passage?
A. A history book about UK.
B. Science text books.
C. A story book about words．
D. A book about making pans.

New research links “silent strokes(中風(fēng))”, or small spots of dead brain cells, found in about one out of four older adults to memory loss in the elderly. The study is published in the January 3, 2024, print issue of Neurology?, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. “The new aspect of this study of memory loss in the elderly is that it examines silent strokes and hippocampal shrinkage(海馬收縮)at the same time,” said study author Adam M.Brickman, PhD of the Taub Institute for Research on Alzheimer’s Disease(老年癡呆癥)and the Aging Brain at Columbia University Medical Center in New York.
For the study, a group of 658 people aged 65 and older and free of dementia(癡呆)were given MRI brain scans. Participants also underwent tests that measured their memory, language, speed at processing(處理)information and visual perception. A total of 174 of the participants had silent strokes.
The study found people with silent strokes scored somewhat worse on memory tests than those without silent strokes. This was true whether or not people had a small hippocampus, which is the memory center of the brain.
“Given that conditions like Alzheimer’s disease are shown mainly by memory problems, our results may lead to further insight into what causes symptoms(癥狀)and the development of new method of prevention. Since silent strokes and the volume of the hippocampus appeared to be associated with memory loss separately in our study, our results also support stroke prevention as a means for staving off memory problems,” said Brickman.
The study was supported by the National Institutes of Health.

A. it studied silent strokes
B. the study was published in the American medical journal

6. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Memory loss has nothing to do with silent strokes.
B. A small hippocampus may have a had effect on memory.
C. A person with silent strokes has a worse memory than one without silent strokes.
D. Silent strokes don’t affect a person’s memory very much.
7. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The new research will surely help researchers find ways to cure Alzheimer’s disease.
B. Memory loss is no longer a problem.
C. The new research may contribute to a new way to deal with memory loss.
D. The researchers have already found a cure of silent strokes.
