高考英語選擇題突破（5）
五
1.On yesterday interview, he didn’t make a(n)
at all; what’s the matter with him?
A. apology
B. appearance
C. difference
D. change
選B。?make an apology“道歉”；make in an appearance“露面，在場”；make a difference“有變化，有作為”；make a change “有所改動”。題意為“昨天的面試，他根本沒露面”。
2. —How much farther shall we have to go?
—Another five miles until we reach the mountain
A. at a distance
B. in a distance
C. at distance
D. in the distance
選D。考查詞組。無B、C結構，at a distance “從某一距離，在某一距離”；in the distance“在遠處”。
3. The discovery of new evidence led to
A. the thief having caught
B. catch the thief
C. the thief being caught
D. the thief to be caught
選C。這句話的意思是：新證據的發現使得小偷束手就擒。to是介詞，后面接了動名詞的復合結構，the thief是動名詞的邏輯主語。
4. Smallpox, a kind of disease, has now died
A. out
B. away
C. off
D. down
選A。die out “滅絕，消失”。die away“漸息”；die down“平息”；die off “(花、草)枯死”。
5. — Why were you not at the concert last night?
— I ______ a close game between Seattle Sonnies and Miami Bucks.
A. watched
B. was watching
C. have watched
D. had watched
選B。本題考查時態。過去進行時表示過去某段時間正在進行的動作。
6. —No wonder you caught a cold. You
out last night without a coat.
—I know how silly I was.
A. shouldn’t have gone
B. mustn’t have gone
C. couldn’t have gone
D. mightn’t have gone
選A。本題考查“情態動詞＋have done ”結構的用。mustn’t have gone 是錯誤的表達，couldn’t have gone 和mightn’t have gone 雖然也有“本不應該做卻做了”含義，但其語氣遠shouldn’t have gone 弱，且它們主要用來表示對過去是否發生某一行為進行推測。
7.
you don’t like him is none of my business.
A. What
B. Who
C. That
D. Whether
選C。本句的謂語動詞是is，前面是一個主語從句； “you don’t like him”是一個意思完整的句子，從句不需要任何有詞義的連詞引導，that只起連接作用，無詞義，所以選C。
8. As
rule, apples are sold by
weight and eggs by
dozen.
A. a; 不填；the
B. a; the; the
C. a; a; the
D. the; 不填；不填
選A。as a rule(通常地)是固定詞組；在度量名詞前，表示付工資、賣、租等方式時，用the, 如paid by the hour (day, moth, piece…), sold by the yard (dozen, ton…)，比較by weight (按重量)。
9. I was so familiar with her that I recognized her voice
I picked up the phone.
A. the moment
B. after
C. before
D. while
選A。名詞短語the moment用作連詞，相當于as soon as，引導時間狀語從句，意為“一……就”。類似用法的短語或詞還有the minute, the instance, directly, immediately等。
10.Which do you enjoy _____ your weekend, swimming or fishing?
A. spending
B. being spent
C. spend
D. to spend
選D。to spend作狀語，而which是句子enjoy的賓語。
11. I don’t have a job. I would find one but I
no time.
A. had
B. didn’t have
C. had had
D. have
選D。解此類題時，必須從題干中的暗示入手。I don’t have a job 告訴我們現在的狀況，再由I would find one 可知是對現在的虛擬，因此，but后的句子應該是現在的事實。故用一般現在時。
12. In the power plant more than
of the workers are out
strike.
選A。twelve 的序數詞形式為twelfth；分數表達法中的分子大于1時，分母用復數，on strike = 在罷工。
13. The traveler didn’t know
which direction to go.
A. in
B. at
C. to
D. /
選A。表示“朝……方向去”，用介詞in 而不用to。
14. The pen I
I
is on my desk, right under my nose.
A. think; lost
B. thought; had lost
C. think; had lost
D. thought; have lost
選B。句意為：我以為已丟了的鋼筆卻在我的桌子上，就在眼皮底下。thought 是過去時，“筆丟失了”是在“thought”之前，所以用過去完成時。
15. The customer didn’t choose
of the coats and went away without looking at a third one.
A. both
B. all
C. any
D. either
選D。not與both, all 連用為部分否定，與any either 連用為完全否定。且兩個coats 不可用all，故據題意，應用完全否定。
16. Mr Smith,
of the
speech, started to read a novel.
A. tired; boring
B. tiring; bored
C. tired; bored
D. tiring; boring
選A。tired of…是過去分詞短語作狀語，boring 是現在分詞作定語。
17. ---Is anything _____?
---I can’t decide which dress I should wear at my friend’s wedding party.
---I don’t think it ____.
A. the matter; the matter
B. matter; matters
C. the matter; matters
D. matter; the matter
選C。 當matter作表語時前應有冠詞； “ don’t think it matters” 意為“我認為那不重要”。
18. Playing football and watching TV _____ both interesting.
A. were
B. was
C. are
D. is
選C 。不定式短語或動詞短語作主語時，謂語動詞應用單數，然而此題中and 連接了兩個動名詞短語， 因此謂語動詞要用單數，故答案為C.
19. It must be he that has stolen Mr. Smith’s purse, _____?
A. hasn’t he
B. isn’t he
C. mustn’t it
D. isn’t it
選D。強調句型的反意疑問句，現在或將來用isn’t it?過去用wasn’t it?
20. In which play is _____ your brother appear?
A. that where
B. this when
C. it that
D. it where
選C 。It is … that是用強調句中,被強調部分是in which play。
