()1.Singapore has only five people. Its population is than that of Beijing.
A.millions; smaller
B.millions of; less
C.million; smaller
D.million; less
A.millions; smaller
B.millions of; less
C.million; smaller
D.million; less
答案
C
解析
million前有具体数字时，不加-s，即“five million”表示“五百万”。population用“large”或“small”来修饰，而不用“less”，根据句意指新加坡的人口比北京的人口少。因此第二空应填“smaller”。
()2.My grandfather used to work in a -run factory, but my father runs his own.
A.country
B.state
C.nation
D.national
A.country
B.state
C.nation
D.national
答案
D
解析
根据句意“我祖父过去在一家______经营的工厂工作，但我父亲经营自己的（工厂）”，此处需用形容词修饰名词“factory”。选项中A、B、C均为名词，D.national是形容词，意为“国家的”，符合语法要求。
()3.I hope you a nice trip you stay in Cambodia.
A.will have; when
B.to have; when
C.will have; during
D.to have; during
A.will have; when
B.to have; when
C.will have; during
D.to have; during
答案
A
解析
本题考查hope的用法以及连词和介词的用法。hope后常接宾语从句，不可接“hope sb. to do sth.”结构，所以根据“I hope you”可知，此处应使用hope+宾语从句，从句中应用will have，排除B、D选项。“when”是连词，引导时间状语从句，“during”是介词，后应接名词、代词或动名词，根据“you stay in Cambodia”这一完整的句子结构，可知此处应使用when引导时间状语从句，排除C选项。
()4.—Can you speak Japanese?
—Yes, I have difficulty. I can speak it very well.
A.little; a little
B.a little; little
C.little; little
D.a little; a little
—Yes, I have difficulty. I can speak it very well.
A.little; a little
B.a little; little
C.little; little
D.a little; a little
答案
B
解析
第一空询问是否会说日语，"a little"表示“一点”，修饰不可数名词Japanese，符合语境；第二空根据答语“说得很好”，可知几乎没有困难，"little"表示“几乎没有”，修饰不可数名词difficulty。故第一空填a little，第二空填little。
()5.—How was the trip to Thailand last week, Lucy?
—. How I wish to pay a second visit!
A.Sounds great
B.Can't be better
C.Not much fun
D.I've no idea
—. How I wish to pay a second visit!
A.Sounds great
B.Can't be better
C.Not much fun
D.I've no idea
答案
B
解析
根据问句询问旅行怎么样，以及答语后半句“How I wish to pay a second visit!”（我多么希望再去一次啊！）可知旅行非常棒。A选项“Sounds great”通常用于回应建议，意思是“听起来不错”；B选项“Can't be better”意思是“再好不过了”，符合语境；C选项“Not much fun”表示“没有太多乐趣”，不符合；D选项“I've no idea”表示“我不知道”，也不符合。所以选B。
()6.—What do you plan to do for the coming holiday?
—We're leaving Sanya soon and going to take a tour it for a day.
A.to; for
B.for; of
C.for; for
D.to; around
—We're leaving Sanya soon and going to take a tour it for a day.
A.to; for
B.for; of
C.for; for
D.to; around
答案
D
解析
本题考查介词的固定搭配，第一空“leave for”表示“动身去某地”，是固定短语，leave 不与 to 连用表示“动身去”，所以第一空应填“for”；第二空“take a tour around”表示“参观……，在……旅游”，是固定表达，take a tour 不与 for 或 of 连用表示“参观”，所以第二空应填“around”。
()7.The government has improved the city's underground to encourage more people to use the public transport.
A.service
B.shape
C.safety
D.speed
A.service
B.shape
C.safety
D.speed
答案
A
解析
本题考查名词词义辨析。题干意思是“政府已经改善了城市地铁______，为了鼓励更多人使用公共交通”。A. service 服务；B. shape 形状；C. safety 安全；D. speed速度。根据“to encourage more people to use the public transport”可知这里应该是改善地铁的服务，才能鼓励更多人使用公共交通，所以“service”符合题意。
()8.Don't you feel it sorry the main sights of the ancient city?
A.seeing
B.not seeing
C.to see
D.not to see
A.seeing
B.not seeing
C.to see
D.not to see
答案
D
解析
“feel it + adj. + to do sth.”为固定结构，it为形式宾语，真正宾语是不定式。根据语境“难道你不觉得没看到这座古城的主要景点很遗憾吗？”，应用否定形式“not to see”。
()9.Zhangjiajie is great attraction for tourists that it is well worth .
A.so a; recommending
B.such; a recommend
C.so; a recommend
D.such a; recommending
A.so a; recommending
B.such; a recommend
C.so; a recommend
D.such a; recommending
答案
D
解析
本题考查such...that...结构及be worth doing的用法，such a/an +形容词+名词+that...表示如此……以至于，be worth doing表示值得做某事，主动表被动。根据题意，张家界是一个如此吸引人的旅游景点以至于它非常值得被推荐。第一个空应填such a，第二个空应填recommending，因此选项D符合题意。
()10.—Julie, what do you think of these Chinese paintings?
—! They show perfect skills of painting.
A.Common
B.Important
C.Wonderful
D.Expensive
—! They show perfect skills of painting.
A.Common
B.Important
C.Wonderful
D.Expensive
答案
C
解析
本题可根据问句“Julie, what do you think of these Chinese paintings?”（朱莉，你觉得这些中国画怎么样？）以及答句后半部分“They show perfect skills of painting.”（它们展现了完美的绘画技巧。）可知，此处应该是对这些中国画的赞美。A选项“Common”意为“普通的”；B选项“Important”意为“重要的”；C选项“Wonderful”意为“精彩的，绝妙的”；D选项“Expensive”意为“昂贵的”。结合语境，C选项符合题意。
