B.an;a C.an;the D.the;the【答案】A【解析】【詳解】句意：地球是所有人唯一的家園。讓我們努力把它變成一個更環保的世界。考查冠詞的用法。根據“only”可知，第一空表示“唯一的家園”，應用定冠詞the表示特指；再根據“greenerworld”可知，第二空表示“一個更環保的世界”，且“greener”以輔音音素開頭，故應用不定冠詞a。故選A。22.—Didyoufeel________waswrongofJacktohidetheicbooks?—Yes.Itisimportant________aboytolearntoshare.Athat;of B.that;for C.it;of D.it;for【答案】D【解析】【詳解】——你覺得Jack把漫畫書藏起來是錯誤的嗎？——是的。對一個男孩來說學會分享是很重要的。考查it的用法和介詞。根據“Itisadj.todosth.”可知，第一空it符合句意；根據“important”可知，修飾的是“learntoshare”這件事，因此用介詞for“對……來說”。故選D。23.LearningEnglishinaclassroomisimportant,whileusingEnglishinreal_________willimproveyourEnglishskillsgreatly.A.positions

B.howtouseitC.whattouse

B.tooweak C.quiteweak D.soweak【答案】B【解析】【詳解】句意：——讓我先休息一下。我太虛弱了，走不動了。——加油！我們只剩下5公里了。考查副詞辨析。weakenough足夠虛弱；tooweak太虛弱；quiteweak十分虛弱；soweak如此虛弱。根據“eon!Weonlyhavefivekilometersleft.”可知，此處表達“走不動了”，句意表否定，結合后面的“towalkanyfurther”可知，此處是too…to“太……而不能”的用法。故選B。32Danielwantedtoknow___________.A.whetherwewillbeinvitedB.thatwewouldhaveaholidayornotC.whatwereyoutalkingaboutD.ifNantongbelongstoJiangsuProvince【答案】D【解析】【詳解】句意：丹尼爾想知道南通是否屬于江蘇省。考查賓語從句。根據主句“wanted”，可知從句要用過去的時態，所以A選項錯誤；B選項“that”不與“ornot”連用，所以B選項錯誤；從句要求為陳述句語序，C選項為疑問句語序，不符合；D選項遵循陳述句語序，南通屬于江蘇為客觀真理，用一般現在時。故選D。33.MrLidrinksmuchcoffee.___________,hecanstophimselffromfeelingsleepyinclass.A.Intheway

D.Thegrassisalwaysgreenerontheotherside【答案】D【解析】【詳解】句意：你總覺得別人的比你的好，正所謂“這山望著那山高”。考查諺語。Manyhandsmakelightwork人多好辦事；Actionspeakslouderthanwords事實勝于雄辯；Itneverrainsbutpours屋漏偏逢連夜雨；Thegrassisalwaysgreenerontheotherside這山望著那山高。根據“Youalwaysthinkwhatotherpeoplehaveseemsbetterthanyours”可知總覺得別人的比自己的好，和諺語“這山望著那山高”意義相近。故選D。35.—Ithinkmanyteenagersnowadayscaremoreaboutthemselves.—___________Manyvolunteersofthisagealwaystakepartinvoluntaryactivities.A.That’snotthecase.
