()1.Canada is very large, but its population is quite .
A.large
B.small
C.few
D.many
A.large
B.small
C.few
D.many
答案
B
解析
population表示“人口”，形容人口“多”用large，“少”用small。句意为“加拿大很大，但人口相当少”，此处需用small。
()2.— is the population of India this year?
—Over 1.42 billion.
A.What
B.How
C.How many
D.How much
—Over 1.42 billion.
A.What
B.How
C.How many
D.How much
答案
A
解析
本题考查询问人口数量的特殊疑问词用法。询问“某地的人口数量是多少”时，常用固定句型“What is the population of...?”，所以此处应选What。How通常用于询问方式、程度等；How many后接可数名词复数，询问数量；How much后接不可数名词，询问数量或价格，均不符合本题语境。
()3.When travelling in Tibet, we found very difficult to communicate with the local people there.
A.that
B.one
C.it
D.them
A.that
B.one
C.it
D.them
答案
C
解析
该题考查it作形式宾语的用法。“find it + adj. + to do sth.”为固定结构，其中it是形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式短语“to communicate with the local people there”。选项A.that、B.one、D.them均不能作形式宾语，所以选C。
()4.I know how busy you are and I won't too much of your time.
A.take up
B.set up
C.make up
D.put up
A.take up
B.set up
C.make up
D.put up
答案
A
解析
根据句意“我知道你很忙，我不会占用你太多时间”，“take up”有“占用（时间、空间等）”的意思，符合语境。“set up”意为“建立”，“make up”意为“组成；编造”，“put up”意为“张贴；举起”，均不符合句意。
()5.—I hear you're leaving for Guilin for your holiday?
—. And I'm looking forward to it.
A.It doesn't matter
B.It's a pleasure
C.Never mind
D.That's right
—. And I'm looking forward to it.
A.It doesn't matter
B.It's a pleasure
C.Never mind
D.That's right
答案
D
解析
本题考查日常交际用语。题干中第一句话的意思是“我听说你要去桂林度假？”，根据空后的“我期待着它。”可知此处应对上文的说法进行肯定。A项表示“没关系”，B项表示“不用客气”，C项表示“别介意”，D项表示“对的，正确的”，因此D项符合语境。
四、完形填空
It was a hot afternoon, and the hour-long bus journey had only just begun. There were only five people on the bus — two young girls and their brother, sitting with their aunt, and a young man, who was sitting alone in the 1 .

"Don't put your feet on the seat, Cyril!"
"Why not?"
"Because you'll make it dirty. And don't always look at the man. That's not 4 . Oh, look at those sheep in that field!"
Nearly every field the bus had travelled past had had sheep in it, so the aunt's 5 was difficult to explain. "Why is that man taking the sheep into the other field?" asked the younger girl.

"But there's lots of grass in both fields."
"Well, perhaps the grass is better in the other field."
"That doesn't make any 7 . Why is it better?" came the immediate question from Cyril.
The young man was looking angry. "I imagine he doesn't like 8 ," the aunt thought.
"Come and sit over here, all of you, and I'll tell you a story," she said.
The children did not look at all 9 by the aunt's offer. They'd obviously heard her stories before, and this one was very boring indeed.
"Oh, it's definitely the most 10 story I've ever heard," said Cyril.
"Yep. I didn't even care to listen to it," the younger girl said, and began singing the first line of her song again.
"You're not a great success as a storyteller," said the young man suddenly from the corner.
