6．【答案】D

【解析】句意：晚饭后，乔纳森和乔离开了房子去散步。goforawalk

是固定用法，意为“出去走走，去散步”，与takeawalk同义。

7．【答案】D

【解析】句意：他指着那辆新轿车问道：“那辆车是谁的?你以前见

过吗?”疑问代词whose用来询问物品的所有者。意为“谁的(东西)”。

why为什么；where哪里；who谁。

8．【答案】B

【解析】句意：我的父亲叫我和汤姆帮他干活。单数人称并列时，顺

序为“第二人称，第三人称，第一人称”；复数人称并列时，顺序为

“第一人称，第二人称，第三人称”。此处为单数人称并列作宾语，

故选Tomandme。

9．【答案】C

【解析】句意：如今，知识匮乏似乎的确是一件危险的事。由句首的

nowadays可以判断，该句的时态为一般现在时，故排除B项。little

knowledge表示的是否定意义，是不可数名词，故谓语动词要用单数，

故排除A项和D项。does在这里是助动词，表示强调。

10．【答案】A

【解析】句意：如果他们的营销团队取得成功，那么他们的利润将增

加20％。if引导的条件状语从句可以分为两类：真实条件句和虚拟

条件句。当假设情况发生的可能性很大时，就是真实条件句；当假设

不大可能实现时，就是虚拟条件句。根据句意，本句所表述的是客观

情况，所以为真实条件句。从句中使用的时态为一般现在时，故主句

应使用将来时，故选A。

11．【答案】B

【解析】句意：你最好带上这些文件，以防会议中你会用到。inease

可引导目的状语从句，意为“以防，以备”，sothat也可引导目的

状语从句。意为“以便，为了”，所以incase符合题意。unless

除非；until直到。

12．【答案】D

【解析】句意：我以前没有去过流行音乐节，迈克也没有去过。t00

和als0表示“也”时用于肯定句和疑问句；neither用作副词时意

为“两者都不”，放在句首，表示前面否定的内容也适用于另一个人

或物，句子须采用部分倒装；either作副词时也可表示“也”，用

于否定句，一般位于句末。

13．【答案】A

【解析】句意：众所周知，马克·吐温是一位伟大的美国作家。as

在该句中引导非限定性定语从句。在从句中作主语。

14．【答案】C

【解析】句意：约翰向书店老板投诉，说字典中缺少了好几页。missin9

意为“缺失的”，符合题意。lacking缺乏的；losing失败的；dropping

掉落的。

15．【答案】C

【解析】旬意：直到比赛开始他才到达运动场。notuntil引导时间

状语从句时主句要部分倒装。从句中的时态为过去完成时，故主句中

的时态应为一般过去时，故选C。

16．【答案】C

【解析】句意：常看电影的人知道许多特效都是通过电脑制作出来的。

但他们往往不知道的是制作这些场景还需要投入大量的工作。分析句

子结构可知，空格所在从句在整个句子中充当主语，从句中缺少宾语，

且宾语指的是事而非人，故选C。

17．【答案】A

【解析】句意：总统将在开幕式上做正式讲话。giveaspeech为固

定搭配，意为“发表讲话，做演讲”。debate辩论，争论；discussion

讨论；argument论点，争论。

18．【答案】B

【解析】句意：当我遇到这些问题时，我头脑一片空白，我甚至记不

起自己的生日。one’smindgoesblank是固定表达，意为“头脑

一片空白”。faint模糊的；dark黑暗的：blind盲目的。

19．【答案】A

【解析】句意：如果他们愿意借给我们那笔我们需要的钱的话，我们

的一切问题都将迎刃而解。solveproblems为固定表达，意为“解

决问题”。caused引起；covered覆盖；met遇到。

20．【答案】D

【解析】句意：这篇文章呼吁人们多关注文化冲突的问题。callsfor

意为“呼吁，提倡”，符合题意。caresfor关心，照顾；allowsfor

考虑到；appliesfor申请，请求。

21．【答案】C

【解析】此处表示“是否还有其他因素在起作用”，atwork意为“(因

素)在起作用”，符合题意。

22．【答案】D

【解析】空格后that引导的同位语从句意为“一些人似乎被赋予了

特殊的创造力”，这是一个客观事实，fact意为“事实”，符合题

意。issue发行，议题；problem问题；reason原因。

23．【答案】C

【解析】由前一句中的转折连词while可知，该句与上句应是转折关

系，上句说“虽然一些人似乎被赋予了特殊的创造力”，所以此处应

表示“但是研究表明任何人都能增加他们想出新点子的机会”，

increase意为“增加”，符合题意。miss错过；reduce减少；lose

失去。

24．【答案】B

【解析】前文说“研究表明任何人都能增加他们想出新点子的机会“，

此处应指增加这种机会应具备的条件，故应选if，引导条件状语从

句。

25．【答案】A

【解析】此处表示增加想出新点子的机会的条件，所以“如果在创造

的过程中全身心投入，不断尝试的话”，就会增加想出新点子的机会。

creation意为“创造”，符合题意。practice实践：production生

产；achievement成就。

26．【答案】A

【解析】此处意为“探索就是99％的汗水加1％的灵感”。引号中的

内容位于介词about之后，故本空应填be动词的非谓语形式，故选

A。

27．【答案】D

【解析】根据空格后的greatcreativebreak—throughs、intense

periodsofstruggle可知。此处表示的观点与前文一致，即研究一

次又一次证明创造力离不开艰苦奋斗。timeandagain意为“屡次，

再三”，符合题意。soonerorlater'迟早；somedayorother总

有一天；everynowandthen不时地，常常。

28．【答案】B

【应试指导l此处表示“伟大的创造性突破往往在长期的艰苦奋斗后

才会出现”，故选B。

29．【答案】A

【解析】本句是一个强调句，意为“正是朝一个特定目标坚持不懈的

努力为伟大的创新洞察力奠定了基础”。强调句的常用结构为“It

is(was)+被强调部分(主语、宾语或状语)+who／that…”，此处强调

的是sustainedefforttowardsaspecificgoal，故应填that。

30．【答案】B

【解析】此处意为“这种坚持不懈的努力不一定总是立即有成效”，

produce意为“产生”，符合题意。create创造；inspire鼓舞；

encourage鼓励。

31．【答案】D
