高考解析



1.To understand the grammar of the sentence, you must break it ___ into parts.

A.down    B.up    C.off      D.out

解析:

  break off意为“断开;推断;停顿;中断”,break out意为“爆发”,它们不合题意。当作“拆开,拆散(divide sth. into parts)”讲时,break up同break down,如:Sentences can be broke up(= broken down)into clauses (句子可分成从句),但若表示“划分(以便分析或更容易得到)(divide sth. into parts in order to analyze it or make it easier to do)”之意时,只能用break down.

答案:A

2.Though ____ money, his parents managed to send him to university.

A.lacked          B.lacking of

C.lacking          D.lacked in

解析:

  “缺少钱”和句子主语之间构成主动关系,排除A、D;lack用作动词搭配为lack sth.或be lacking in,因此B项搭配错误。

答案:C。

3.— You seem to show interest in cooking.

  — What? ____, I’m getting tired of it.

A.On the contrary      B.To the contrary

C.On the other hand    D.To the other hand

解析:

  On the contrary强调否定或反驳对方,而To the contrary意为“反对地,On the other hand意为“另一方面”,逻辑不对。

答案:A

4.The classroom is big enough _______, but we’ll have to move if we have more students.

A.for the moment      B.on the moment

C.in a moment       D.for a moment

解析:

  for the moment意为“目前,现在”,全句意为“教室目前够大的,但是如果再有学生我们就要搬。”in a moment意为“马上,立刻”,for a moment意为“片刻,一会儿。”

答案:A

5.He hesitated for a moment before kicking the ball, otherwise he _____ a goal.

A.had scored        B.scored

C.would score       D.would have scored

解析:

  考查虚拟语气的用法。根据otherwise可知要用虚拟语气。虚拟过去发生的事,主句谓语动词要用would+have+过去分词。句意为“踢球前,他犹豫了一会儿,否则他就会进球。”

答案:D
