Structute-优选.Section A16C解析 need，require 等动词表示“需要”时，要用动名词或动词不定式的被动形式作宾语，表示被动的含义，即 need doing 或 need to be done，故选 C。17A解析 whom 引导的宾语从句作 wonder 的宾语；而在从句中，whom 作 belong to 的宾语。另外，在宾语从句中，主语和谓语的顺序应与陈述句相同，故选A。18D解析 由形容词最高级修饰的名词，其后的定语从句要用that 引导，故选 D。19B解析 since 引导的是原因状语从句，表示“因为，由于”。其他选项与题意不符：although 意为“虽然，尽管”，if 意为“如果”，until 意为“直到才”，故选 B。20D解析 在表示“要求”，“坚持”，“建议”，“命令”等动词后的从句中，谓语动词用“(should)+动词原形”构成虚拟语气；在这里，省略了 should，直接要加动词原形。这些动词的主语从句，如 It is required that.，It is ordered that.，It is suggested that.等，也要用相同的形式，例如：It is suggested that we(shoulD)studyhard(人们建议我们应该好好学习。)21A解析 该句虽然是直接引语的句子，但时间状语为by the end of last year(到去年为止)，这样直接引语中的谓语动词就构成了“过去的过去”，所以应该用过去完成时。四个选项中只有 A 是过去完成时时态，故选 A。22C解析 形容词的比较级前不能加定冠词 the，所以 B，D 不正确。elder 主要用于指家庭成员，不符合题意，如：my elder brother(我的哥哥)，故选 C。23B解析 以“only+状语”开头的句子要使用部分倒装，即把情态动词或助动词提到主语的前面，所以 C、D 不正确，但 A 选项的情态动词也不正确，故选D。24B解析 如果主语为单数，尽管后面有with，together with，as well as，no less than，like，but，expect等介词，但这样的介词短语相当于修饰主语的定语成分，所以谓语动词仍用单数，故选B。25A解析 take over 意为“接收，接管”；hand in 意为“上交”；put in 意为“放进，提出，提交，插入”；lead to 意为“导致，通向”。只有 A 项符合题意，故选 A。SectionB-优选.26were crossing解析 根据句意，从句表示过去某段时间正在进行的动作，所以时态要用过去进行时。27(should)send解析 当表语从句的主语和同位语从句的先行词是能够引起虚拟语气的抽象名词时，从句必须用虚拟语气。从句的谓语动词用“(should+)动词原形”的形式。类似的名词包括：idea，motion，plan，advice，demand，desire，order，proposal，requirement，suggestion，decision，remendation 等。28improvement解析 根据句子结构可以看出 no 后需要一个名词作宾语，improve 的名词形式为 improvement，意为“进展，进步”。29to live解析 prefer to do sth.rather than do sth 意为“宁愿做也不愿做”。此句中，rather than 后的live 被省略了，故答案为 to live。30carrying解析 have difficulty/trouble(in)doing sth意为“做有困难”，因此要把 carry 变为动名词形式。31knowing解析 现在分词作原因状浯相当于 as，since，because 等连词引导的从句，现在分词与主句主语之间为主谓关系，故答案为 knowing。32height解析 根据句子结构可以看出 the 后需要一个名词作宾语，high 的名词形式为 height，意为“高度”。33emphasizes解析 根据句子结构可以看出本句话缺少谓语，所以空格中需要用一个动词做谓语，emphasis 的动词为emphasize。本句强调了一个客观事实，所以谓语动词要使用一般现在时，又因为主语“the number of.”是第三人称单数，所以谓语动词也要使用第三人称单数形式。34automatic解析 根据句子结构可以看出空格中需要一个形容词作定语，来修饰宾语 temperature control system，automatically 的形容词形式为 automatic，意为“自动的，自动化的”。35worse解析 根据句意可以看出，本句是两者this one 和 that one 之间进行的比较，所以要使用比较级形式。注意：bad 的比较级形式是 worse。Part Reading

option595-438213601325 or 1330Part TranslationEnglish into Chinese61C译文 我们的身份对交流有着重要影响。解析 此句为一个简单句。在翻译的过程中，按照汉语的表达习惯先把主语翻译出来，“identity”意为“身份”；此外，“have effect on”意为“对产生影响”。62A译文 从来没有其他任何一项体育竞赛像足球世界杯那样引人遐想。解析 此句为一个简单句，按照正常逻辑译出即可。此外，“no other”意为“其他任何都不”；“like”意为“像一样”；“capture”意为“迷住，引起兴趣”，因此“capture imagination”可以意译为“引入遐想”。63D译文 在过去二十年，美国教育界出现了一个新趋势。解析 此句为包含一个时间状语的句子。在翻译过程中，应先把时间状语译出来。此外，“trend”意为“趋势”，而“develop”的原意为“发展，进步”，在此句中的意思为“逐渐显现出来”。64B译文 不胜感谢贵方对此事的关照。解析 此句为简单句，只要抓住句子主干，按照正常逻辑译出即可。此外，“be obliged to”意为“感到必须做”，“thank sb.for sth.”意为“因某事而感谢某人”。65译文 在公共行政这一领域，我对公共政策制定和运筹学有很大兴趣，并希望在将来的学习中有所侧重。在获得学位后，我将回到中国并在政府部门谋职。Part WritingExample:Dear Sir or Madam,J Mr.Jones is the chairman of Canadian-Chinese friendship
