　　1．The rich only________themselves in making money and had no eye for the needs and welfare of their workers.

　　A．devoted

　　B．concerned

　　C．enjoyed

　　D．occupied

　　解析：選D。occupy oneself in doing sth.意思是“忙于做某事”。句意：有錢人只是忙著賺錢，看不到員工的需要和福利。

　　2．By the time he finishes the part-time job，he________much work experience.

　　A．will gain

　　B．will have gained

　　C．has gained

　　D．had gained

　　解析：選B。by the time通常和完成時態連用；根據從句的時態和意義判斷，主句應用將來完成時態。

　　3. (2024·高考新課標全國卷)The result is not very important to us, but if we do win, then so much ________.

　　A．the best

　　B．best

　　C．better

　　D．the better

　　解析：選D。考查特殊句式。so much the better常常和if條件句連用，意為“如果……那就更好了”，其反義詞組是so much the worse“那就更糟糕了”。句意：結果對我們來說并不非常重要，但是如果我們真的能贏，那就更好了。

　　4．________is often the case，we have worked out the production plan.

　　A．Which

　　B．When

　　C．What

　　D．As

　　解析：選D。as引導非限制性定語從句，并在定語從句中作主語；which引導非限制性定語從句時不能放在句首。

　　5．—Must I turn off the gas after taking a bath?

　　—Of course.You can never be________careful with that.

　　A．enough

　　B．too

　　C．so

　　B．easier；efficient

　　C．easy；efficiently

　　D．easily；efficiently

　　解析：選B。句意：雖然計算機和手機確實使我們的生活變得更容易、更高效了，但是卻減少了面對面交流的需要。本題考查形容詞比較級。兩個空格處都需要形容詞來作our life的賓補；又根據and more知道第一空格需要用比較級，所以B項正確。

　　7．(2024·高考大綱全國卷Ⅰ)This restaurant wasn’t ________that other restaurant we went to.

　　A．half as good as

　　B．as half good as

　　C．as good as half

　　D．good as half as

　　解析：選A?？疾楸稊当磉_法。分析選項特征可知，本題考查倍數表達結構。選項中出現as...as結構，half相當于倍數詞，其位置應該在as...as...結構之前，所以A項結構正確。從選項中找出倍數詞，了解倍數表達法的基本句式結構是解題關鍵。

　　8．(2024·四川南充第二次適應考)Playing basketball is________great fun；it also provides us with a chance to develop our sense of________team spirit.

　　A．a；/

　　B．/；a

　　C．a；the

　　D．/；/

　　解析：選D。句意：打籃球非常有趣，此外它還為我們培養團隊精神提供了機會。fun為不可數名詞，在本句中表泛指，故用零冠詞；“the sense of...”后名詞前需用零冠詞，為固定用法。

　　9．I don’t feel I can comment________their decision.I’m not really familiar with what they do.

　　A．on

　　B．of

　　C．with

　　D．in

　　解析：選A。comment (on sth.)“評論，發表意見”，固定用法。

　　10．The boys were so hungry that they went________ something to eat as soon as they went back home.

　　A．in search of

　　B．in favour of

　　C．in praise of

　　D．in charge of

　　解析：選A。句意：這些男孩太餓了，一回家就找吃的東西。in search of“ 尋找，尋求”，符合句意。in favour of“贊成，支持”；in praise of“贊美，稱贊”；in charge of“負責，經營，照顧”。

　　11．(2024·江西九校聯考)But for the fact that China________also affected by the global economic crisis，we________fewer unemployed workers now.

　　A．is；would have

　　B．were；would have

　　C．was；would have had

　　D．were；would have had

　　解析：選A。句意：要不是中國也受到全球經濟危機的影響這一事實，我們現在就會有更少的下崗工人。本題考查虛擬語氣的用法。but for(要不是)介詞短語作狀語，句子要使用虛擬語氣。根據時間狀語now提示該句為與現在事實相反的假設，所以使用would＋動詞原形來表示；the fact后接that引導的同位語從句，其中China is also affected...是客觀事實，所以不用虛擬語氣。

　　12．Emily is trying to put the knowledge________at school to use in her work.

　　A．to acquire

　　B．acquired

　　C．acquiring

　　D．acquire

　　解析：選B。acquire 與knowledge 之間為邏輯上的動賓關系，所以要用過去分詞作定語，相當于that was acquired。

　　13．(2024·高考陜西卷)________ in a long queue, we waited for the store to open to buy a New iPad.

　　A．Standing

　　B．To stand

　　C．Stood

　　D．Stand

　　解析：選A?？疾楝F在分詞短語作伴隨狀語。句意：為了買新一代iPad，我們站在長長的隊伍里，等待著商店開門。兩部分之間由逗號分隔，后一部分為句子，且前后沒有連詞連接，所以此處填非謂語形式；另外，句子主語we發出stand這一動作，即we與stand之間為邏輯上的主謂關系，且stand伴隨謂語waited發生，所以用現在分詞形式。

　　14．(2024·高考江西卷)He seems to be giving the impression that he didn’t enjoy himself in Paris.________，he had a wonderful time.

　　A．Above all

　　B．What’s more

　　C．As a result

　　D．On the contrary

　　解析：選D。考查短語辨析。above all最重要的是；what’s more更重要的是；as a result結果是；on the contrary恰恰相反。前后兩個句子表示的意思相反，因此選擇D項。句意：他好像給人一種他在巴黎玩得不愉快的印象。恰恰相反，他玩得非常愉快。

　　15．Honestly speaking，I would agree with Shirley，though not________.

　　A．widely

　　B．entirely

　　C．possibly

　　D．eventually

　　解析：選B?？疾楦痹~的辨析。widely意為“廣泛地”；entirely意為“完全地，全然地”；possibly 意為“可能地”；eventually意為“最終”。根據語意可知，“我”雖然贊同Shirley，但并不完全贊同。故選B項。

　　(2024·皖南八校第一次聯考)Why must we pay taxes? The answer is that the government needs money for many things，for example，to pay its soldiers，sailors and airmen，to build roads，bridges，offices，schools，etc.，and to buy goods from abroad; and only the people of the country can supply the money.One of the most important taxes is income-tax which a person pays according to the amount of his income.Whether he is a businessman，a doctor，a lawyer，a shopkeeper，a miner，or anything else.This is called a “direct” tax，because it is paid in money direct to the government.

　　Another tax is paid on goods such as watches，jewellery，new clothes，tobacco，wine，etc.，when they are brought into a country，such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops.We call it “indirect” tax，because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeeper.

　　People usually complain about having to pay taxes，but they forget that the money is spent on the things that they and their families need.We need policemen to catch thieves，to see that men obey the laws，to direct traffic，etc.，and they must be paid what they earn; children need education and there must be schools and teachers; we want our streets to be kept clean，and the wages of men who do this kind of work have to be paid.Above all，the country must always be ready to defend itself against attacking enemies，and we cannot have an army without paying for it.

　　Taxes，therefore，cannot be avoided.We buy our own food and clothes and pay for our own amusements，but there are several things that the State finds the money for，and that are necessary for us if our society is to continue.So we have no real cause to complain when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellow-citizens.

　　5. Indirect tax means________.

　　A．tax that one pays direct to the government

　　B．tax that is not paid directly to the government

　　C．tax that is paid as an extra amount added to the price of certain goods

　　D．Both B and C

　　解析：選D。推理判斷題。根據文章第二段：這種稅款不是直接交給政府，而是以商品價格的形式由商店老板代收代交，從而可推知此題答案為D。

　　6．Which of the following is right?

　　A．Taxes are paid to the sellers.

　　B．Income-tax is an indirect tax.

　　C．The tax on new clothes is paid in money direct to the government.

　　D．Tax is amount of money that you have to pay to the government so that it can pay for public services.

　　解析：選D。推理判斷題。根據文章第一段第二句．..for example，to pay its soldiers，sailors and airmen，to build roads，bridges，offices，schools，etc.，and to buy goods from abroad...可推知此題答案為D。

　　7．People have no real reason to complain about having to pay taxes because________.

　　A．some shopkeepers are very rich

　　B．they need money to buy goods from abroad

　　C．their children need education

　　D．the money is spent on the things that they and their families need

　　解析：選D。推理判斷題。根據文章第三段第一句．..the money is spent on the things that they and their families need.可推知此題答案為D。
