A. a; 不填 B. a; a C. the; a D. a; the 【答案】A
【解析】试题分析：句意：--你认为我们晚饭后应该做什么？--为什么不到街上的卡拉OK喝杯啤酒呢？听到所有的乐队唱歌是一种乐趣。口语中 表示一杯啤酒的时候啤酒可数 冠词用a ， fun是不可数名词 不加冠词，选A。 考点：考查冠词
2. Last month, part of Britain was struck by snowstorms, from effects most passengers in Heathrow were suffering a lot, especially those with children. A. which. B. what C. that D. whose 【答案】D
【解析】考查定语从句。句意：上个月，英国的一部分地区遭到暴风雪袭击，在Heathrow的多数路人遭受到它的影响，特别是那些孩子。此处snowstorms是先行词，在后面的定语从句中做定语，故答案为D。 3. --I wonder what makes you a good salesperson.
--I as a waiter for three years, which contribute a lot to my today’s work. A. serve B. have served C. had served D. served 【答案】D
【解析】试题分析：考查时态。根据句意，做服务员是过去发生的事，因此才说对现在销售员的工作产生
很多帮助，用过去式即可，句意：我想知道什么使你成为一个好的销售员。我当服务员三年，这对我现在的工作很有帮助。故选D 考点：考查时态

for nothing【解析】考查不定代词。句意：旅行社把一切安排得很好，来访者把所有的麻烦都看成是免费的。免费，故选C。
5. --How long do you expect it before the African can keep the disease under control? --As soon as possible. A. is B. has been
C. will be D. will have been 【答案】C
【解析】考查时态。上句：你预测非洲人需要多长时间控制住疾病？下句：尽快。固定句式：It will be +一段时间+before ----，多久之后将会---，可知句子用一般将来时态，故选C。 【名师点睛】 before 的连词用法 conj. 在......前，强调时间
before的含义比较灵活，实际翻译时应结合具体情况机动处理。 1.趁......
You should do it before it is too late. 趁现在还不算太晚，你应该赶快做它。 2. 尚未来得及
Before she could move, she heard a loud noise, which grew to a terrible roar. 她还没有来得及动弹，就听见有很响的声音，接着就成了可怕的隆隆轰鸣声。

6. Next door to ours , who seem to have settled in this community for quite a long time. A. are living a black couple B. live a black couple C. are a black couple living D. do a black couple live 【答案】B
【解析】考查倒装句。Next door to ours是做地点状语，置于句首时句子要全部倒装，即主谓倒装，句意：我们隔壁住着一对黑人夫妇，他们似乎已经在这个社区定居很久了。故选B。 7. --Look at the noisy kids!
--Haven’t you heard the saying “ ”?
A. There’s plenty of fish in the sea B. All that glitters is not gold C. When the cat is away D. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush 【答案】C

完全倒装是把谓语动词完全置于主语前，其中主语必须是名词，若为代词则不倒装，这种结构中谓语部分无助动词（ be ， do ， have ）和情态动词，但可以有连系动词 be 。须用完全倒装的情况有：
1. 当句首为副词 out ， in ， up ， down ， off ， here ， there 等，且主语为名词时，应用完全倒装。如： In came the doctor. 医生进来了。
2. 当表示地点的介词短语位于句首， On top of the hill stands a big pine 且主语为名词时，应用完全倒装。如：
