Ⅲ.单项填空
1．The Moonstone was________in a real story which________in England in the 1790s.
A．set; taking place C．set; had taken place
B．setting; take place D．set; took place
答案：D 本题考查动词短语的用法。句意：《月光石》是以发生在英国18世纪90年代的真实故事为背景的。be set in“以??为背景”；take place“发生”，根据时间状语in the 1790s判断，应用一般过去时。
2．The open-air________has been put off because of the bad weather.
A．occasion C．celebration
B．congratulation D．challenge
答案：C celebration“庆祝，庆典”。句意：由于天气不好，露天的庆祝活动已经被延期。occasion“场合”；congratulation“祝贺”；challenge“挑战”。
3．Tom________a lot of experience and the friendship of the
local residents, working there for 3 years.
A．earned C．gained
B．won D．made
答案：C 本题考查动词辨析。本题很容易误选B。做本题时，可从搭配角度来考虑。“赢得友谊”可说win/gain friendship，但“获得经验”应说gain experience，因此排除B而选C。
4．—Have you noticed the problem________he is now in low spirit?
—________come? A．where; What C．in which; For
B．that; How D．what; As
答案：B 考查同位语从句及固定用法。因为同位语从句中不缺少任何成分，故第一空白处用that引导同位语从句，说明名词the problem的具体内容；第二空白处用How, How come？是固定搭配，意为：怎么回事？
5．—Where are the students? How could they keep us waiting for so long?
—They started an hour ago and they________be here in fifteen minutes, I think.
A．might C．should
B．would D．must
答案：C 考查情态动词用法。本题应用should表示按常规或者事情发展进程应该发生某事。
6．Although my grandfather is in his eighties, he is still as________as a young man and hates sitting around doing nothing all day.
A．enthusiastic C．energetic
B．intelligent D．sensitive
答案：C 本题考查形容词辨析。句意：尽管我爷爷80多岁了，但他仍然像年轻人那样精力充沛，讨厌整天无所事事闲坐着。energetic“精力旺盛的”，符合句意。enthusiastic“热心的”；intelligent“聪明的”；sensitive“敏感的”，均不符合题意。
7．As most boys do, John looks forward________equally. A．to treat C．to treating
B．to be treated D．to being treated
答案：D 句意：像大多数男孩那样，约翰也盼望着得到公平对待。look forward to后跟动名词，且treat与John之间是动宾关系，故用动名词的被动形式。
8．I have a very important meeting tomorrow afternoon. Remember to________me to attend it on time in case I forget.
A．allow C．remind
B．promise D．advise
答案：C 句意：明天下午我有个重要的会议，记得提醒我按时参加，以防我忘了。remind sb. to do sth.“提醒某人做某事”。allow sb. to do sth.“允许某人做某事”；promise sb. to do sth.“答应某人做某事”；advise sb. to do sth.“建议某人做某事”。
9．(2013·安徽毫州摸底)________ is clear ________ the Diaoyu islands have been China's inherent territory (固有领土)both from historical and legal aspects since ancient times.
A．That；that C．It；that
B．This；this D．What；what
答案：C 考查句式。It is clear that...“??是很清楚的”。句
意：很明显，无论是从历史的角度还是法理角度来说，钓鱼岛及其附属岛屿自古以来一直是中国的固有领土。
10．How happy we are! The holiday we have been looking forward________at last.
A．to has come C．to having come
B．to have come D．has come
答案：A look forward to意为“盼望”，其中的to是介词，所以后接动词时要用动名词形式，许多同学据此便选择了C。但句中介词to的宾语不是have come，而是the holiday。分析句子可知：the holiday为句子主语，we have been looking forward to是修饰主语的定语从句(介词to的宾语是引导该定语从句的关系代词，被省略)，has come是句子的谓语。
11．Last Sunday a few of us arranged to meet in town, but Jenny didn't________.
A．turn up C．make up
B．give up D．take up
答案：A 考查动词短语。句意：上星期天，我们几人约好在城里见面，但是詹妮没有来。turn up“出现，露面”，符合句意。
12．—It's so late. Our son________be back!
—Don't worry. I dare say he________have some extra work to do.
A．can; must C．must; may
B．will; might D．should; must
