furtherresponsibilities.

A.takeon

［大学英语考试复习资料］（A）大学三级（B）模拟416

B.puton

C.geton

D.lookup

答案:A［考点］动词词组词义辨析

［解析］takeon意为"承担"；puton意为"穿、戴上";get

on意为"上车、进展"；lookup意为"向上看，查（字典.因此

只有A符合题意，故选A。

问题：2.OnlyafterIhadreachedtheairportthatIhad

forgottentotakemyticketwithme.

A.Irealized

B.haveIrealized

C.didIrealize

D.Ihadrealized

答案:C［考点］倒装结构

［解析］only+状语置于句首时，主句使用部分倒装结构，即将谓

语部分的助动词置于主语之前。由从句中的过去完成时推知主句中应

是一般过去时，故选

Co

A.showsup

B.showoff

C.staysin

［大学英语考试复习资料］(A)大学三级(B)模拟416

耀,显耀"；stayin意为"在家,不外出"；stayup意为"熬夜,

不睡觉"。根据句意，故选D。

问题:4.Inordertosearchfortheescapedprisoner;the

A.who

B.whom

C.whoever

0.whomever

答案:C［考点］引导词的用法

［解析］whoever相当于anyonewho题中强调的是"任意谁，

从句中做宾语成分，不合题意，故选

Co

问题:5.Breakfastisthefirstoftheday.

A.food

B.dinner

C.lunch

D.meal

答案:D［考点］名词词义辨析

［解析］food意为"食品"；dinner意为"正餐，晚餐"；lunch

［大学英语考试复习资料］（A）大学三级（B）模拟416

意为“午餐’，这三个词都不可以泛指"一顿饭"，而ameal可以

泛指任何一顿饭，故选D。

问题:6.Hecanhardlyunderstandwhattheteacherhassaid,

A.norshallI

B.neithercanI

C.sodoI

D.soIcan

答案:B［考点］倒装结构

［解析］hardly表示否定的意思，即"几乎不…"，所以后面不能

使用表示肯定的so，而是使用表示否定的neither或nor，这样就排

除了C和D;且谓语的助动词要保持前后一致，本题中用的是can,

所以是错误的，故选

ABo

问题：7.I'mamazedthattheyoungactressmarriedthe

photographersosoon,forshehimverywell.

A.won'thaveknown

B.can'thaveknown

C.shouldn'tknow

0.mustn'tknow

答案:B［考点］情态动词的用法

的一种推测，can表示推测（惊讶、怀疑、不相信的态度）时，用于疑

［大学英语考试复习资料］(A)大学三级(B)模拟416

问句、否定句和感叹句中；must表示推测时，只用于肯定的陈述句

中,故选

Be

C.on

D.for

答案:B［考点］介词的用法

［解析］in表示时间，指"在某段时间之内"；on表示"某一天

或某个具体的日期"；for表示"动作持续的时间"，后面多跟一段

时间。本题是指处在计算机时代这一段时间之内，故选

Bo

问题:9.Petercomewithustonight,butheisnotvery

sureyet.

A.must

B.can

C.may

D.will

答案:C［考点］情态动词的用法

giveninbrackets.Writethewordorwordsinthe

correspondingspaceontheAnswersheet.

问题:1.Theysatintheirnewcar(comfortably)thanin

theoldone.

答案:morecomfortably［考点］副词比较级

［解析］因为comfortably是多音节副词，按照规律应在它的前

面加more来构成比较级。

问题：2.TomisstudyingChineseandhisunderstandingof

properChineseneedsto(improve).

［大学英语考试复习资料］(A)大学三级(B)模拟416

答案:beimproved［考点］固定用法

［解析］need在这里是"需要”的意思，后面可以接动名词，相

当于不定式的被动形式，即

needdoing=needtobedoneo

问题:3.Don'tworry.Aslongasyouworkhard,youcan(sure)

passtheexam.

答案:surely［考点］词性转换

［解析］根据题意，所填的词应该是副词用来修饰动词pass,所

以答案应该是将变为

suresurely0

问题:4.Thebookisworthyofreading,becauseitgivesa

detailed(describe)oftheAmericanCivilWar.

答案:description［考点］词性转换

［解析］根据题意，空格处应填写一个名词来充当作定语的形容

词detailed的中心词,所以答案是describe的名词形式,即

description。

问题:5.He(work)onthefarmforfiveyearsbeforehe

wenttothecollege.

答案:hadworked［考点］时态

［解析］根据题意，他上大学这件事发生在过去某个时间，那么

谈到在此之前的他在农场工作的事情，自然要用过去完成时，即had

donesth.的形式。

问题:6.Shemadeit(know)toallherclassmatesthat

shehadboughtanewpairofshoes.

［大学英语考试复习资料］(A)大学三级(B)模拟416

答案:known［考点］被动语态

［解析］因为know和后面的代词it之间是被动关系，所以应该

用被动语态，即

knowno

问题：7.Wearelookingforwardto(receive)yourletter

again.

答案:receiving［考点］固定搭配

［解析］在短语lookforwardto中，to是介词，所以应接动名

词形式，即注意，要和不定式中后面加动词原

receiving0todoto

形区分开来，避免在做题时误选。

问题:8.rdratheryou(notdo)that.

答案:hadn'tdone［考点］虚拟语气

［解析］虚拟语气在动词wish/wouldrather/hadrather/would

sooner/wouldjustassoon后面的宾语从句中，对过去的情况进行

的假设耍用had加动词的过去分词。本题的意思是"宁愿你没有做

那件事"，所以用否定语气，即hadn'tdone。

问题:9.Thefriendshipconveyedinthegiftseemstobethe

most(value)thing.

答案:valuable［考点］词性转换

［解析］形容词修饰名词

valuablething0

问题:10.Johnwasthankfulforthe(kind)ofthese

peoplewhohelpedhimtofindhispassport

答案:kindness［考点词性转换

［大学英语考试复习资料］(A)大学三级(B)模拟416

［解析］介词后面应跟名词，的名词形式是

kindkindness0

c.为了不让她惊慌，这位医生没有把她的严重病情告诉她。

D.为了不让她惊慌，这位医生没有认真地告诉她实况。

答案:C［解析］notwishingtoalarmher作为伴随状语，原意是"不

希望她惊慌"，但根据本句的语言环境，应翻译成"为了不让她京慌"

更为恰当，表示目的。serious在此处的意思是"严重"，而非"认

真"。
