13. The performance _______ nearly three hours, but few people left the theatre early.

A. covered B. reached C. played D. lasted

【答案】D。

【解析】题意是“尽管演出持续了将近3小时，但还是很少有人提前离开。”last才有“持续”之意。

【考点】动词词义辨析。

14. Let’s learn to use the problem we are facing ________ a stepping-stone to future success.

A. to B. for C. as D. by

【答案】C。

【解析】use…as…  把什么东西用做……。

15. The lawyer seldom wears anything other than a suit __________the season.

A. whatever B. wherever C. whenever D. however

【答案】A。

【解析】whatever 引导让步状语从句，其后省略了it is。题意是“无论什么季节，律师除了穿套装外，很少穿其他衣服”。

【考点】whatever引导的表语从句。

16. I like getting up very early in summer. The morning air is so good _________.

A. to be breathed B. to breathe C. breathing D. being breathed

【答案】B。

【解析】breathe和air之间虽然是动宾关系，但good后省略了for me，其逻辑主语是I，故用动词不定式的主动形式。

【考点】非谓语动词的用法。动词不定式做状语。

【易错提醒】A选项易被误选，认为breathe和air之间虽然是动宾关系，就用动词不定式的被动形式。

homework to do every day；He is to blame for the spoiled boy. 这些句子中的不定式都是用的主动形式。

17. —Have you known Dr. Jackson for a long time?

— Yes, since she________ the Chinese Society.

A. has joined B. joins C. had joined D. joined

【答案】D。

【解析】该句完整的句式是：I have known Dr. Jackson since she joined the Chinese Society. since后跟的时间状语从句要用一般过去时，表示自从过去某个时间发生的动作到现在以来有多长时间了。

【考点】动词的现在完成时态。

18. You are driving too fast. Can you drive_________?

A. more slowly a bit    B. slowly a bit more

C. a bit more slowly D. slowly more bit

【考点】副词的比较级。

19. The wet weather will continue tomorrow when a cold front ______ to arrive.

A. is expected      B. is expecting    C. expects    D. will be expected

【答案】A。

【解析】a cold front（冷锋）和expect之间是被动关系，主句是一般将来时，故when引导的时间状语从句应该用一般现在时的被动语态表示将来要被发生的动作。

【考点】动词时态

20. —Which of the two computer games did you prefer?

— Actually I didn’t like ______.

A. both of them    B. either of them     C. none of them    D. neither of them

【答案】B。

【解析】题意是“这两个网络游戏你喜欢哪一个？说实话我两个都不喜欢。”

not和both表示部分否定。none指三个以上的否定。neither两个都不，前面有don’t，就不能再和neither搭配使用了。要注意区别both, all, neither, either, none的基本用法，同时要注意部分否定和全否定的表达。如：Both of his sons are in the army. 其全否定形式为：Neither of his sons is in the army. All of us went to the cinema yesterday. 其完全否定形式是：None of us went to the cinema.

【考点】不定代词的用法。

31. —Have you got any idea for the summer vacation?

— I don’t mind where we go ______ there’s sun, sea and beach.

【答案】B。

【解析】as if好像，表示方式；as long as 只要；now that既然，表示原因；in order that为了，表示目的。题意是“你想好去哪儿度暑假呢？只要有阳光，大海和海滩，去哪儿我都没意见。” 除了as long as引导条件状语从句外，还应掌握if，unless，when，while等也可以引导条件状语从句。

【考点】as long as 引导的条件状语从句。

32. The weather was ______ cold that I didn’t like to leave my room.

A. really   B. such       C. too     D. so

【答案】D。

【解析】题意是“天气太冷了我不想离开我的房间。” so …that…（如此……以致……）引导结果状语从句。

【考点】so…that… 引导结果状语从句。

【备考提示】要注意以下几种句型之间的关系：He is such a little boy that he can’t take care of himself.相当于He is so little a boy that he can’t take care of himself.也可以说：He is too young to take care of himself.或He is so young that he can’t take care of himself.

33. The English spoken in the United States is only slightly different from ______ spoken in England.

A. which     B. what    C. that     D. the one

【答案】C。

【解析】that用来指代前面的名词The English，以避免重复。题意是“美国英语现和英国英语只有很微小的差别了。”在英语中，that还常可以用来指代人口、天气、金钱等。如：The weather here is hotter than that in the north of the country.

【考点】代词that的用法。

【备考提示】面对这种句式结构较复杂的句子，首先要抓主干。如果spoken前有is，则B项也成立。

34. After studying in a medical college for five years, Jane ______ her job as a doctor in the countryside.

A. Never mind    B. Certainly not    C. Not at all     D. Don’t mention it

【答案】A。

【解析】Certainly not常用来回答别人问是否见意的问题；Not at all和Don’t mention it. 用于别人致谢时的答语。只有Never mind符合语境。题意是“对不起，我又出错了。没关系，多练习，你就会成功的。”

【考点】情景交际用语。考查别人致歉时如何安慰对方。

One Possible Version:

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Greetings from Chian!

I’m Li Hua, a student in Sichuan. I’ve been a panda lover since I was a child. About three years ago I was delighted to learn that Baiyun gave birth to her daughter Sulin and I’ve been watching her grow on your website. Now she’s going to be there. I’d like to wish her a happy birthday and to express my thanks to you for your hard work, because of which Sulin and her parents are living a happy and healthy life in the US.

By the way, could I have a photo of Sulin taken on her third birthday? Thank you very much in advance.

Yours truly,

Li Hua

【易错提醒】有的考生可能会不认真审题而漏掉要点：信息的来源以及合适的结尾。文章书信开头有了，但是结尾没有给出，有时候是给出结尾的。因此要注意审题，提炼要点。

【高考试题库备考提示】

1、确定文章体裁、格式、结构及常用时态。书信以应用文形式出现，时态以一般现在时或一般将来时为主。

2、依据题目列出内容要点、分清文章层次。只写与要求一致的内容，文章层次应结合问题特点来安排。在确定内容时，应使用自己最熟悉的英语词汇或句型来表述。
