50、 根據原文(11)處可得出答案。12saw 解析 根據原文(12)處可得出答案。13house 解析 根據原文(13)處可得出答案。14far 解析 根據原文(14)處可得出答案。 15from 解析 根據原文(15)處可得出答案。 Part Structute Section A 16C 解析 need，require等動詞表示“需要時，要用動名詞或動詞不定式的被動形式作賓語，表示被動的含義，即need doing或need to be done，應選C。 17A 解析 whom 引導的賓語從句作wonder的賓語；而在從句中，whom作belong to的賓語。另外，在賓語從句中，主語和謂

51、語的順序應與陳述句相同，應選A。 18D 解析 由形容詞最高級修飾的名詞，其后的定語從句要用that引導，應選D。 19B 解析 since引導的是原因狀語從句，表示“因為，由于。其他選項與題意不符：although意為“雖然，盡管，if意為“如果，until意為“直到才，應選B。20D 解析 在表示“要求，“堅持，“建議，“命令等動詞后的從句中，謂語動詞用“(should) +動詞原形構成虛擬語氣；在這里，省略了should，直接要加動詞原形。這些動詞的主語從句，如It is required that.，It is ordered that.，It is suggested that.等，

52、也要用相同的形式，例如：It is suggested that we (shoulD) study hard(人們建議我們應該好好學習。) 21A 解析 該句雖然是直接引語的句子，但時間狀語為by the end of last year(到去年為止)，這樣直接引語中的謂語動詞就構成了“過去的過去，所以應該用過去完成時。四個選項中只有A是過去完成時時態，應選A。 22C 解析 形容詞的比擬級前不能加定冠詞the，所以B，D不正確。elder主要用于指家庭成員，不符合題意，如：my elder brother(我的哥哥)，應選C。 23B 解析 以“only+狀語開頭的句子要使用局部倒裝，即把

53、情態動詞或助動詞提到主語的前面，所以C、D不正確，但A選項的情態動詞也不正確，應選D。24B 解析 如果主語為單數，盡管后面有with，together with，as well as，no less than，like，but，expect等介詞，但這樣的介詞短語相當于修飾主語的定語成分，所以謂語動詞仍用單數，應選B。25A 解析 take over意為“接收，接管；hand in意為“上交；put in意為“放進，提出，提交，插入；lead to意為“導致，通向。只有A項符合題意，應選A。 Section B26were crossing 解析 根據句意，從句表示過去某段時間正在進行的動作

54、，所以時態要用過去進行時。27(should) send 解析 當表語從句的主語和同位語從句的先行詞是能夠引起虛擬語氣的抽象名詞時，從句必須用虛擬語 氣。從句的謂語動詞用“(should+)動詞原形的形式。類似的名詞包括：idea，motion，plan，advice， demand，desire，order，proposal，requirement，suggestion，decision，recommendation等。28improvement 解析 根據句子結構可以看出no后需要一個名詞作賓語，improve的名詞形式為improvement，意為“進展，進步。29to live 解析 prefer to do sth. rather than do sth意為“寧愿做也不愿做。此句中，rather than后的live被省略了，故答案為to live。30carrying 解析 have difficulty/trouble(in)doing sth意為“做有困難，因此要把carry變為動名詞形式。31knowing 解析 現在分詞作原因狀浯相當于as，since，because等連詞引導的從句，現在分詞與主句主語之
