—No,Idon'tthinkso!

A.hashe

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

B.doesn'the

C.doeshe

D.hasn'the

答案:C［解析］考查反意疑問句。主句中的hardly是帶有否定意義的

詞，因此主句為否定句，反意疑問部分是肯定的，又句中的has是實(shí)

義動詞〃有〃。因此選C項(xiàng)。

問題：2.Twentymilesalongwaytocover.

A.havebeen

B.is

C.are

D.were

答案:B［解析］考查主謂一致和時態(tài)。表示重量、金錢、長度、距離類

的名詞作主語，不論是否加s,都被當(dāng)作第三人稱單數(shù)，謂語用單數(shù)

形式。且根據(jù)語境可知應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時。

nightforthefinalexam.

A.toread

B.havingread

C.tohaveread

0.reading

答案:D［解析］考查非謂語動詞。句意：為期末考試，學(xué)生熬到深夜

苦讀是典型的現(xiàn)象。這里兩個動詞stayup與read是伴隨的動作，

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

沒有先后關(guān)系。

問題：4.determinesagoodmealvariesfromcountry

tocountry.

B.That

C.It

D.Which

答案:A［解析］考查主語從句。what引導(dǎo)主語從句，而且在從句中作

上的額外時間在將來會得到補(bǔ)償?shù)摹howoff〃炫耀〃；setoff〃出

發(fā)〃；payoff〃付清，取得成功〃；takeoff〃脫下，起飛〃。根據(jù)

句意可知應(yīng)選C項(xiàng)。

意思。

的范圍〃。

問題:8.Theyarenotawareofthereasonspeopleare

unwillingtodiscussinsurance.

A.when

B.where

C.why

D.how

答案:C［解析］考查定語從句。空格前是先行詞reasons,其后的關(guān)系

詞在定語從句中作原因狀語，因此空格處應(yīng)為關(guān)系副詞why。

問題：9.I'llbeoutforsometime.anythingimportant

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

D.its

答案:A［解析］考查形式賓語。it是形式賓語，真正的賓語是從句that

Iwillhelpyouo

l'可題：11.Hadheworkedharder,hetheexams.

A.musthavegotthrough

B.wouldhavegotthrough

C.wouldgetthrough

D.couldgetthrough

答案:B［解析］考查虛擬語氣。從句是一個省略if的條件句，表示對過

去事實(shí)的假設(shè)，從句為過去完成時，主句用nwould/could/should+

have+過去分詞〃。

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

問題:12.Ifeelmyhealth.

A.improve

B.tobeimproving

C.tobeimproved

語補(bǔ)足語為不帶to的動詞不定式。

問題:13.ThefilmIsawyesterdayisthebestoneI've

everseen.

A.which

B.that

C.what

D.ofwhich

答案:B［解析］考查定語從句。當(dāng)先行詞被形容詞最高級修飾時，關(guān)系

代詞只能用that。

問題:14.Idon'tknowhowtoplaybridge（橋牌）and.

A.mywifedoesn'tneither

B.mywifedoeseither

C.neitherdoesmywife

0.neithermywifedoes

答案:C［解析］考查倒裝句。表示前面的否定情況也適用于后者常用

〃neither/nor+助動詞+主語〃，這是一種倒裝用法。

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

一Yes.AndIalsotoldhimsheuntilthenextmonth.

tell之前，為〃過去的過去〃，應(yīng)用過去完成時；第二空處為間接引

語，應(yīng)用過去將來時。

問題:16.—Ihavetogounderanycircumstances.

—Ifyoudofollowmyadvice,Iyou.

A.don'tpunish

B.wouldnotpunish

C.wouldpunish

D.won'tpunish

答案:D［解析］考查if引導(dǎo)的條件狀語從句。從句用一般現(xiàn)在時，主

hisdoctor'sdegreeandbecameanengineer.

A.that

B.when

C.before

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

D.since

答案:A［解析］考查強(qiáng)調(diào)句。句意：就是在將近八年后，這個年輕人才

獲得他的博士學(xué)位，并成了一名工程師。根據(jù)句意可知，此句為強(qiáng)調(diào)

句。

可題:18.Expertsinsistthatpacketsofcigarettescomewitha

healthwarningtothem.

A.beattached

B.attach

C.attached

0.attaching

答案:C［解析］考查過去分詞。句意：專家堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為香煙盒應(yīng)該附有健

康警示。attach...to…表示〃把...附在上〃。ahealthwarning

與attach是被動關(guān)系，故用過去分詞。

—Yes,weanofficialinvitation.

A.send

B.aresent

C.havesent

D.havebeensent

答案:D［解析］考查動詞的時態(tài)與語態(tài)。we和send之間是被動關(guān)系

popularity?

A.Itwaspromotedinvarioustypesofpopularmedia.

B.AIbertEinsteinarguedstronglyinsupport.

C.Itwasproveninscientificresearch.

D.Fewpeoplecouldproveitwrong.

答案:A［解析］推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句atheorythat

hasoftenbeenputforwardintelevisiondocumentaries,

magazines,advertisementsandbooksoverthepastcentury?

可知，在20世紀(jì)這個理論經(jīng)常在公共媒體上出現(xiàn)，由此推測，這可

能是這個理論盛行的原因之一。故A項(xiàng)正確。

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

2.Theunderlinedword"unfounded"isclosedinmeaningto

A.undiscovered

B.unproven

C.unknown

0.unnecessary

答案:B［解析］詞義推測題。從下文來看，科學(xué)家們從現(xiàn)實(shí)各個角度分

析證明了這個理論是沒有根據(jù)的，由此可推知unfounded意為〃沒

有事實(shí)根據(jù)的〃。只有B項(xiàng)與之意思相近。

3.WhichofthefollowingisTRUEaccordingtothewriter?

A.Weuselessthan10%ofourbrains.

B.Mostbraindisordersaffectthesamepartofthebrain.

C.Thebrainislessactiveduringtimesofsleep.

D.The10percenttheorydoesnotmakeevolutionarysense.

答案:D［解析］是非判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第一句"Froman

evolutionarypointofview,it'shighlyunlikelythatour

comparatively.../可知，從進(jìn)化論的角度來看,如果我們大腦的90%

都不需要，那么人類的更大的腦袋是從祖先進(jìn)化而來就變得不可能，

所以這個理論從進(jìn)化論的角度來看也是沒有現(xiàn)實(shí)意義的。故D項(xiàng)正

確。

4.Whatcanweinferfromthepassage?

A.Peopletodayusemoreoftheirbrainthaninthepast.

［大學(xué)英語考試復(fù)習(xí)資料］四川省專升本大學(xué)英語模擬題18

B.Scientificopinionaboutthetopicofbrainuseisequally

divided.

C.Ourunderstandingofthebrainhaschangedgreatlyinthe

pastdecades.

D.Modernscientistshaveacompletepictureofhowthebrain

works.

答案:C［解析］推理判斷題。綜合全文內(nèi)容可知，在20世紀(jì)〃人類只

使用了大腦的百分之十〃這個理論十分盛行，而現(xiàn)在科學(xué)家們經(jīng)過論

證一致認(rèn)為這個理論是沒有事實(shí)根據(jù)的，由此可知，在過去的幾十年

中人們對大腦的認(rèn)識發(fā)生了很大的變化。故C項(xiàng)正確。

5.Whatisthemainpurposeofthepassage?

A.Topresenttwosidesofbraintheory.

B.Tocriticizethe10percenttheory.

C.Toexplainhowbrainworks.

D.Todescribethehistoryofbrainresearch.

答案:B［解析］目的意圖題。全文從各個角度分析論證了〃人類只使用

了大腦的百分之十〃這個理論是沒有事實(shí)根據(jù)的，對之進(jìn)行了批判。

故B項(xiàng)正確。
