中第 11 题
The pictures of the Loch Ness Monster show a remarkable resemblance to a plesiosaur, a large water reptile of the Mesozoic era presuming extinct for more than 70 million years.
A supposed B presumably C presumptuous D is presumed
【正确答案】:B
【答案解析】 [分析] 副词应用。 Suppose 和 presume 均表 “假定, 认为” , 但 presume 更侧重 “猜想” ; presuming 作形容词时,与 presumptuous 是同义词,表“专横的’,但在本句中 presuming 不是形容词, 而是分词, 修饰形容词 extinct, 表 “假定的” , 故选项 B. presumably “大概”是答案。
第 12 题
Erosion that is a slow process, but it constantly changes the features on the surface of the earth.
A which is B although C being D is
【正确答案】:D
【答案解析】 本句是由 but 连接的并列结构,前后均应有完整的主谓结构,划线部分中的 that 使前句成为一个从句,去掉它则句子成立,因此 D 为答案。
第 13 题 Because everyone knows, facts speak louder than words.
A Since B That C It D As
【正确答案】:D
【答案解析】根据句意, 从句不应是原因状语从句, 而是方式状语从句; 而 as 在此作连词, 引出方式状语从句,表示“正如,按照„„方式”,所以 D 是答案。
第 14 题
"But you'll be able to come, won't you?" "Yes, I think such."
A that B it C so D this
【正确答案】:C
【答案解析】I think so. 是固定搭配。Think 后面可以用 so 来避免重复已经表达过的想 法。 所以答案是 C。 与此用法相同的动词还有: hope, believe, suppose, imagine。
第 15 题
Just as there are occupations that require college degrees also there are occupations for which technical training is necessary.
A so to there are B so too there are C so there are D so too are there
【正确答案】:B 【答案解析】[分析] 习惯搭配。 此句意为:正如有些职业需要大学学历一样,有些职业也需要专门的技术训 练。just as„,so 表示“正像„„一样,也”,so 在此作 also 解,应放在句 首,后面的句子不倒装,too 在此表强调。所以 B 是答案。
