　　這篇短文講述了作者是如何計(jì)劃一個(gè)短暫的假期，去山里天氣太冷，而且假期又短，所以她決定去附近的海邊度假。

　　答案簡(jiǎn)析

　　A。 根據(jù)下文的I can work at home all the rest of the time 可判斷這里是at home。意思是“我家里有許多事要做”。

　　C。 a good chance to do it 這里的to do it是不定式做后置定語(yǔ)

　　B。 “度假”應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞spend。

　　C。 go south/north/west/east to somewhere意為朝著（東南西北）方向去某處。

　　B。 everything there was beautiful 說(shuō)明那兒的一切都很美。

　　D。 too…to…為固定結(jié)構(gòu)，意思是“太……而不……”。

　　A。 因?yàn)閐ecide后面的賓語(yǔ)從句不缺任何成分，故用 that 來(lái)引導(dǎo)陳述句賓語(yǔ)從句。

　　B。

　　A。 do want 表強(qiáng)調(diào)，意思是“我”真的很想去度假。整篇文章時(shí)態(tài)是以現(xiàn)在時(shí)為主，故wanted不可選，其它兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)無(wú)此用法。

　　D。along the seashore意思是“沿著海邊”。

　　C。 在陽(yáng)光下應(yīng)該用in ，而不是under。

　　A。 in和一段時(shí)間連用表示將來(lái)，而after只有和點(diǎn)時(shí)間連用可表示將來(lái)。

　　C。 think over意思是“仔細(xì)考慮”。

　　C。 根據(jù)后面的than可知這里應(yīng)用比較級(jí)better。

　　B。 根據(jù)第一小節(jié)作者覺(jué)得這個(gè)時(shí)候去山里不合適，所以這里應(yīng)選mountains。

　　本文講解的是關(guān)于世界上最快的客機(jī)——協(xié)和式飛機(jī)（CONDORDE）的發(fā)展史。３３年的歷史、英法聯(lián)手打造、耗資十多個(gè)億、兩倍于聲速……無(wú)一不使人們嘆為觀止。

　　答案簡(jiǎn)析

　　C。本句如選invented或 produced，得用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，took off是“起飛”的意思，這里意指“它第一次飛行是在……”因此，用flew最為恰當(dāng)。

　　A。both…and …是固定短語(yǔ)，為“……兩者都”的意思。

　　B。根據(jù)文意，“兩個(gè)國(guó)家都有造超聲波飛機(jī)的夢(mèng)想”，而不是“談話(huà)”、“會(huì)議”、或“戰(zhàn)斗”。

　　A。work on sth.意為“致力于……”。

　　D。cost“耗資”。paid，wanted的主語(yǔ)應(yīng)是人，needed指根據(jù)計(jì)劃需要耗資等的數(shù)量，cost本身就表示花費(fèi)成本的數(shù)量。

　　B。voice意為“嗓音”；noise意為“噪音”；shout意為“大叫聲”；speed of sound意為“聲速”。

　　B。固定短語(yǔ)it takes sb. some time to do sth.

　　D。because 后面是一個(gè)名詞性詞組，所以用because of 意為“由于……的原因”。本句意為“由于英、美之間的五個(gè)小時(shí)的時(shí)間差”。

　　A。根據(jù)上下文之間的聯(lián)系，意為“你坐協(xié)和式飛機(jī)從London到New York，有可能已經(jīng)到了New York，而還沒(méi)離開(kāi)London。（這是由于時(shí)差）。

　　C。catch the flight 意為“趕上某次航班”。

　　C。下文省略了“than in London”。

　　B。“每架飛機(jī)”，只有用each，其他都不對(duì)。

　　A。so far “到目前為止”，本句意為“到目前為止，已造出二十架飛機(jī)”

　　D。通過(guò)上下文可知，這兩個(gè)機(jī)場(chǎng)所擁有的協(xié)和式飛機(jī)最多。

　　C。本句的主語(yǔ)是they，而each只是同位語(yǔ)，所以不可用has，have一般不用進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)，所以不可選D。

　　店主看到來(lái)住店的客人的包，認(rèn)為里面有許多錢(qián)，于是便想占為己有，他們夫妻二人想出一個(gè)辦法，把健忘草拌在客人的飯里想讓其第二天起來(lái)時(shí)忘記去尋找自己的包，可是客人卻在第二天一早就離開(kāi)了，連住宿費(fèi)都忘了付。店主夫妻害人不成反害了自己。弄清故事的情節(jié)發(fā)展是做好本題的關(guān)鍵。

　　答案解析

　　1. D。本句考查的是時(shí)態(tài)，該動(dòng)作發(fā)生在下文 said的前面，表“過(guò)去的過(guò)去”，因此用D，而C表示的是狀態(tài)。

　　2. B。此為情態(tài)動(dòng)詞表示猜測(cè)在there be句型中的運(yùn)用。

　　3. A。let’s 后跟動(dòng)詞原行，代詞要放在動(dòng)詞和副詞構(gòu)成的詞組中間。

　　4. D。let’s引導(dǎo)的祈使句，其反意疑問(wèn)句為shall we。

　　5. C。包沒(méi)了，當(dāng)然會(huì)尋找（look for）。

　　6. B。下文minutes為可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)，此句為肯定句，故選 a few。A項(xiàng)表示否定含義，C、D都修飾不可數(shù)名詞，前者表否定，后者表肯定。

　　7. A。why not do sth.為why don’t you do sth.的省略形式，表示建議。

　　8. A。條件狀語(yǔ)從句中，主句是將來(lái)時(shí)，從句則用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。

　　9. B。forget doing sth. 表示忘記做過(guò)某事了，forget to do sth表示忘記了要去做某事；take與下文的away構(gòu)成固定短語(yǔ)，表示拿走。

　　10. C。那個(gè)客人吃的是拌有健忘草的飯。with表示具有、伴隨。

　　11. A。find the door open, 發(fā)現(xiàn)門(mén)是開(kāi)著的，這里open是形容詞作賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。

　　12. C。妻子的建議沒(méi)有達(dá)到預(yù)想的效果，所以店主很生氣。

　　13. D。店主抱怨說(shuō)健忘草根本沒(méi)用。

　　14. B。妻子堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為吃了健忘草的客人一定忘了某事。
