2. My friend ________ us to the park yesterday.
A. offered to take B. offers to take
C. offers taking D. offered taking
【答案】A

【详解】句意:我的朋友昨天主动提出带我们去公园。
考查时态及动词用法。根据“yesterday”可知,时态为一般过去时;根据“offer”可知,考查“offer to do”,意为“主动提出做某事”,所以填offered to take,故选A。
3. —Is Jenny ________ girl in your class
—No, she isn’t. Tina is ________ than her.
A. taller; the tallest B. the tallest; tall
C. the tallest; taller D. tall; taller
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——珍妮是班里最高的女生吗?——不,不是。蒂娜比她更高。
考查形容词比较级和最高级。tall高的;taller更高的;tallest最高的。根据“in your class”可知,第一空,应用最高级形式,即tallest,最高级前需要加定冠词the;根据“than”可知,第二空,应用比较级形式,即taller。故选C。
4. —Where would you like to go for your summer holiday, Beijing or Shanghai

A. Both B. Neither C. Each D. Either

A. until B. while C. before D. after
【答案】B
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】试题分析:句意:埃迪在睡觉,同时米莉正在读一本杂志。until直到;while当……的时候,同时;before在……之前;after在……之后。while前后连接两个进行时态的句子。所以选B。

A. from B. to C. with D. at
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:上海是一个拥有3050万人口的城市。
考查介词辨析。from从;to到;with有;at在。根据“a city … about 30,000,000 people”可知,此处指拥有3050万人口的城市,故选C。
7. It ________ be my brother. He is still in France.
A. may B. mustn’t C. should D. can’t
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:不可能是我弟弟。他还在法国。
考查情态动词辨析。may可能;mustn’t禁止;should应该;can’t不可能。根据“He is still in France”可知,还在法国,所以不可能是弟弟,表示否定推测用can’t,故选D。
8. It's very important ______ us ______ hard.
A. for; to study B. of; to studying C. for; studying D. of; to study
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:对于我们来说努力学习是重要的。It’s+形容词+for /of sb.+to do sth.表示做某事对于某人来说是……;important在这里是修饰动词不定式的,这里介词用for,短语study hard表示努力学习。根据题意,故选A。
【点睛】“It’s + 形容词 + to do sth.”中常用of或for引出不定式的行为者,究竟用of sb.还是用for sb.,取决于前面的形容词。
1) 若形容词是描述不定式行为者的性格、品质的,如kind,good,nice,right,wrong,clever,careless,polite,foolish等,用of sb. 例:
It’s very kind of you to help me. 你能帮我,真好。
It’s clever of you to work out the maths problem. 你真聪明,解出了这道数学题。
2) 若形容词仅仅是描述事物,不是对不定式行为者的品格进行评价,用for sb.,这类形容词有difficult,easy,hard,important,dangerous,(im)possible等。例:
It’s very dangerous for children to cross the busy street.
对孩子们来说,穿过繁忙的街道很危险。
It’s difficult for us to finish the work. 对我们来说,完成这项工作很困难。
for 与of 的辨别方法:
用介词后面的代词作主语,用介词前边的形容词作表语,造个句子。如果道理上通顺用of,不通则用for. 如:
You are nice. (通顺,所以应用of)。
He is hard. (人是困难的,不通,因此应用for.)
9. —________ is the population of our city
—About two million.
A. How many B. How much C. How D. What
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我们城市的人口是多少?——大约250万。
考查特殊疑问句。How many多少;How much多少;How如何;What什么。根据“is the population of our city ”可知此处是询问人口,用固定句型What’s the population of“……的人口是多少”。故选D。
10. I ________ when Bob knocked at the door.
A. was reading B. will read C. am reading D. read
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:鲍勃敲门时,我正在看书。

— We have cold winters and hot summers. It’s snowy in New York in winter.
A. What’s the weather like B. What’s the weather
C. What time is it D. What’s the temperature
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——贝蒂,在你的家乡天气怎么样?——我们有寒冷的冬天和炎热的夏天。纽约的冬天下雪。
考查情景交际。What’s the weather like天气怎么样;What’s the weather天气是什么;What time is it现在几点了;What’s the temperature温度是多少。根据“We have cold winters and hot summers. It’s snowy in New York in winter.”可知,前面的问句是针对天气提问;提问天气的固定句型为What is the weather like 或How is the weather ;所以选项A符合题意。故选A。
12. The population of China is almost ________ of the world’s population.
A. one fifths B. fifth one C. one fifth D. fifths one
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:中国人口几乎占世界人口的五分之一。
考查分数表达。表示“五分之一”,分母用序数词,five的序数词是fifth,分子是一,用基数词one表示,分母用序数词原形,且分子在前,分母在后,故选C。
13. It’s time to have English. Please ________ your English book and notebook.
A. hide B. prepare C. increase D. land

【解析】
【详解】句意:该上英语课了。请准备好你们的英语书和笔记本。

14. It’s a good idea ________ photos of autumn leaves of Forbidden City.
