1.C 句意— 你请索菲亚帮忙了吗?— 没那个必要,我可以自己做得非常好。由上句 “Did you ask ...?” 可知设空处说的是过去的事,故排除B、D 两项。A 项为过去将来时,不符合题意。只有C 项(一般过去时)符合本提要求。
2.C 句意:自从上午九点,经理一直在告诉工人们如何去改善这个程序。根据since 9 am 可知设空处应该用现在完成时,故排除B、D两项。又根据语境可知设空处强调动作现在还在进行,故选择C。
3.D 句意:为了找到那个失踪的孩子,在过去的五个小时里,村民们一直在竭尽全力(寻找)。根据over the past five hours 可知现在完成进行时,表示动作开始于过去,持续到现在,且还在进行。
4.D 句意:格蕾丝不想搬去纽约因为她认为如果住在那,她将不能经常见到父母。考察虚拟语气。根据主句是would+V以及句意可知if条件句中要表将来。
5.A 句意:沃尔玛,美国最大的连锁超市之一,它的一些连锁店从周一到周六24小时营业。考查动词时态和主谓一致。依句意可知,该句叙述的是现在的客观事实,所以用一般现在时;其次,主语为Walmart(第三人称单数),所以谓语动词用keeps。 6.D 句意:放学后,我们去阅览室看书,结果被告知阅览室正在装修。考察动词时态的呼应及语态。根据句中的went可知空格处也应该用过去的某种时态;又根据句意可知空格处叙述正在发生的情况;根据it(the reading-room)与decorate之间的关系可知用被动语态。 7.B 句意:—凯文,你看起来很担心,出什么事情了?—嗯,我参加了考试,正在等结果。根据语境,参加考试应该是过去的动作,故用过去时。
8.B句意:洪灾地区的食物供应快用完了。我们必须在他们没有剩余食物之前立即采取行动。考查动词时态、语态。词组run out 意为 “用完”,没有被动形式,排除C、D。根据第二句语境可知食物快用完了,故用现在进行时表将来。
9.C 句意:奶奶过去常说:“生活如同在雪地里走路,因为每一步都显而易见。”表示事物本身的属性。特征时,谓语动词用一般现在时.
10.C 句意:整个下午我都在做数学题,眼前全是数字。And 前的句子为过去完成进行时,表示动作持续到过去某一时刻,and后句子正是陈述“过去那个时刻的事实”。用一般过去。 11.C句意:等你看完这本书,你的饭就凉了。根据题干,by the time 后的从句的时态为现在完成时,表达现在看来以后要发生的动作或存在的状态,因此主句谓语动词的动作发生在将来。故选择C项。
12.B 句意:乔治说他第二天要来学校看我,但是他没有来。根据题干中前半句的主句谓语动词said可以判断语境的时间为过去,根据句意,他打算来却没有来,没来这一动作也是发生在过去,故使用didn’t 表示对过去发生的事情的陈述。Wouldn’t表示过去将要发生的动作与句意不符;hasn’t为现在完成时;hadn’t为过去完成时。
13.B 句意:—你听说市场的那场火灾了吗?—听说了,幸好没有人受伤。本题考查动词的时态和语态。句中主语no one 与谓语动词之间为被动关系,故排除A.C。火灾发生在过去。 14.D 句意:在接下来的几周里我们的友谊进展的很快。根据句意可知说话人再对过去发生
的事情进行陈述。因此使用一般过去时更符合语境。
15.B 【句意】别把这花瓶拿得跟它好像是用钢做的似的 as if“仿佛、好像”其后内容若与事实不符则用虚拟语气。花瓶不是用钢做的。
16.B 句意—电脑什么时候死机了?—今天早上,当我正将从网站上下来的阅读材料进行分类的时候。本题考查过去进行时的用法。根据时间状语从句的连刺while可知,点按哦司机发生于“正在分类”的时候,需用进行时态,排除AD 从第一句的时态和第二局中的时间状语this morning 可知需用过去时。
17.C句意:—我可以今天下午两点给你回电话吗?—抱歉,那时我将正飞往北京,五点可以吗?根据题干中的时间可知应为将来时空格处表示在将来的某个时间点正在做某事,因此选C。将来进行时强调说话人对将来某个时间段内要发生何事已知晓。
18.C 句意:在杰克发送了一下电子邮件之后,他开始从事他的项目。本题考查动词时态。主句的动词时态是一般过去时,从句要用相应的过去时态。
19.D 句意:经理听到他的两个可信赖的工人就要离开了,很忧愁。主句的动词时态是一般过去时,从句要用相应的过去时态,故选D。
20.A 句意:不要担心。你现在所做的艰难的工作在今后的生活中会得到回报。考查动词时态和语态。根据later in life可知设空处用一般将来时,又因为主语the hard work 与动词(repay)之间为被动关系,应用被动语态。
21.C 句意:关上身后的恐惧之门,你就会看到信心之门在你面前打开。本体采用“祈使句+and+陈述句”形式考查动词时态。在此句型中,祈使句相当于if引导的条件状语从句,陈述句相当于主句,故后面的陈述句应该用一般将来时。
22.D句意:他紧张不安的等待着,暗自想道“那一刻将会很快到来。”据题干中soon得知。 23.C 句意:—我记得你上大学时在弹钢琴方面挺有天赋的。你能为我弹钢琴吗?—对不起,我已经很多年不弹了。根据语境及for years 得知。
24.A 句意:给老板的信放在他桌子上,但他三天后才读。考查动词的时态语态和主谓一致。根据语境及but分句的时态可知前半句也应该用过去式,又因letters与put的关系,用被动。 25.A 句意:去年夏天,我们三个人在欧洲旅行了大约一个月。Last summer 可知。
26.C 句意:—瞧,已经有人打扫了沙发。—嗯,不是我,我没做过那件事。根据look可知,设空处表示现在的情况,故用现在完成时。现在完成时表示该动作对目前所造成的影响或结果,即现在沙发很干净。
27.A 句意:我觉得特别兴奋!明天早晨的这个时候我就要飞往上海了。考查将来进行时。根据时间状语at this time tomorrow morning可知后半句表示明天早晨这一时间点正在发生。 28.A 句意:妈妈,不知你能否借我几美元直到我周五发工资。考查动词的时态和语态。I was wondering if...表示委婉客气。后面until引导的从句是时间状语从句,因此虽然表示的是将来的时间,但要用一般现在时。
29.D 句意:—你听懂我说的话了吗?—抱歉。我刚才正在回复短信。A项为过去完成时太,表示过去的过去;B为现在完成时,表过去的动作对现在造成了一定的影响;C为过去将来时;D为过去进行时,表示在过去某一时刻动作正在发生。
30.A 句意:目前,他们正和父母一起居住,因为他们自己的房子正在重建中。本题考查动词的时态和语态。房子与重建之间为被动关系,排除D。房子正在重建,选择A。 31.B 句意:彼得本打算从上,但是2012年在加拿大的不愉快的经历使他放弃了那个计划。本题考查动词的时态。空格处表示发生在过去的事情。用一般过去。
32.A 句意:—阿尔文,你和我们一起来吗?—我很愿意去,不过发生了一些意外的事情。根据句意,此处是指,因为发生了一些意外的事情,造成了我不能去(的影响)。 33.D 句意:据说,经理已经从巴黎回来了,在那他会见了一些欧洲的生意伙伴。根据提议,
“回来”发生在过去,“会见”欧洲生意伙伴发生在“回来”之前,即过去的过去。 34.C句意:总统希望在他离任时民众的生活比他就任时过得更好。根据语境可知,设空处动作(开始履职)发生在过去,所以需用一般过去时态。 2011年真题:
