Now you are telling him how you understand the picture and what makes you think so.参考答案课时作业(四十).1.D句意：老师，我在。请听好。我一直在考虑让你父

30、母来学校，但我想先听听你的意见。have been considering是现在完成进行时，表示从过去开始的一个动作一直持续到现在，并且还在进行。2B考查非谓语动词。句意：这个小男孩被最新的电动玩具所吸引，站在橱窗前一动也不动。句子的主语the little boy与attract构成逻辑上的被动关系，故用过去分词。to be done表示动作尚未发生。3D考查副词辨析。此处somehow意为“不知怎的”。句意：他已打算妥协，可是不知怎的在最后的时刻他又改变了主意。4Dnot to mention更不必说，不必提及；in addition to除之外；on account of由于，因为，为了

31、的缘故；regardless of不顾，不管。根据句意可知D项正确。5A考查动词词义辨析。句意：这些天政府发布了几项将会加快制造业发展的经济政策。accelerate意为“加速，提前”； accomplish意为“完成，实现”； accumulate意为“积累，增加”； approve意为“批准，赞成”。根据句意可知A项正确。6Cassuming that“假定”为固定句型。类似表达有：providing/supposing (that)7B考查虚拟语气。if only“要是就好了”，后用虚拟语气。答句句意：要是我没对他说那些太严厉的话就好了。表示和过去事实相反，故用过去完成时。8C考查短语辨

32、析。regardless of 意为“不考虑，不顾及”。 not to mention意为“更别提，更别说”；apart from意为“除了”，所以A、B项意思不对；D项搭配不当。9A考查非谓语。此处only to do/be done表示意料之外的结果；现在分词作结果状语则表示自然的结果。这里George和tell之间是被动关系，因此用to be told。句意：战争后乔治回到家，结果被告知妻子已经离开了他。10B考查非谓语。句意：展望未来，我们希望我们的教学体系得以改变。look ahead 意为“展望未来，为将来设想”；look around 意为“向四处看”；watch out 意为“

33、注意，当心”；D项无此搭配。11C考查动词短语辨析。句意：我厌烦了无休止的考试。振作起来，David。坚持到高考结束。be fed up with意为“厌倦，受够了，饱受”。catch up with赶上；come up with提出(想法、办法等)；put up with忍受，容忍。12C考查不定式的时态。句意：据说汤姆最近在设计一种新的电脑程序，但我不知道他什么时候完工。后半句暗示“设计”这一动作还在进行，故用不定式的现在完成进行式。13D句意：临近的居民都拍手称赞政府关于关闭这个印染工厂的决定。delete删除；identify识别；interrupt打断；applaud赞赏。14A考查

34、交际用语。从答语中的“Im going up there，too.”可知，答话人认为两个人都去Appleby是一件极为巧合的事，故用What a coincidence!15A考查独立主格结构。主句主语跟后面状语部分主语不一致，前后没有连词，说明应该用独立主格结构。date back to“追溯到”，一般不用被动，它与逻辑主语some (trees)应该是主动关系，因此用现在分词。.A这是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了第一本牛津词典的编写过程，以及Minor对词典的编写工作所作出的巨大贡献。16D细节理解题。从最后一段的“Minor died in 1920, seven years before t

35、he first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed.”看出A选项是不正确的；从第二段的“Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester

36、 Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England.”看出牛津词典是集体智慧的结晶；由第一段最后一句中“It would include every English word possible”可知，C项不正确。故选D。17C细节理解题。从第三段的“Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray”看出，Minor提供了大量词汇和引文。故选C

37、。18A细节理解题。从第四段的“Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a booklined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally Insane.”看出，是由于Minor患精神病被关进医院里，所以没有办法去牛津。故选A。19B细节理解题。从第二段Minor自愿加入编词典这个活动可知，他对此很感兴趣，与Murray有着共同的兴趣，再从文章倒数第三段的“Murray and Minor

38、 became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10，000 submissions in 20 years.”可找到答案。故选B。20D推理判断题。根据文章中Minor在患精神病住院期间还坚持词典的编写工作看出他的不寻常；从文章倒数第三段的“Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10，000 submissions

39、 in 20 years.”看出他的学者风范。故选D。21C主旨大意题。文章一开始主要介绍由来自英国、美国和英国殖民地的志愿者参加牛津词典的编写工作，后半部分主要写编者Minor对词典的编写工作所作出的巨大贡献。故选C。B这是一篇讲述日本学前教育的材料，文章指出日本学前教育的侧重点和对集体主义的重视，以及教育内容的丰富多样性。22C事实细节题。根据第一段“the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, sur

40、prisingly little stress is put on academic instruction.”可知，美国人的看法应该是日本的学前教育非常重视专业技术知识的传授，因此C项是正确答案。23D事实细节题。由第一段倒数第二句“To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond，Japanese schools do not teach reading，writing，and mathematics，but rather skills such as persistence，concentration

41、，and the ability to function as a member of a group.”可知，在日本的学前教育中，老师并不教孩子读写和数学，而是重视培养孩子的素质，教育孩子们学会持之以恒、集中精力，并能融入集体之中。所以D项正确。24A推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.”可推测free play是用来减轻学生学习压力的，所以A项正确。25D推理判断题。根据最后一段第四句“it will

42、 increase the childrens chances of eventually being admitted to toprated schools and universities.”可知，孩子们参加universitybased项目可以有更好的机会得到高等教育。故D项正确。.One possible version：I think the long pencil, looking proud and delighted, is laughing at the short pencil by saying “Youre nearing the end！”The short pen

43、cil, on the other hand, remains calm. The long pencils words let him fall into deep thoughts. He clearly remembers he has been used in writing and drawing. Its true that hes approaching the end but he has been living a memorable life and there has rarely been a dull moment.In reality, we should learn from the short pencil: not to mind what others say so long as we are confident in what we have done.- 7 -
