必修3Unit5同步常考知识点练习
1.My first __
impression
__(impress) of him was that he was a kind and thoughtful young man.
解析:考查名词。句意:我对他的第一印象是他是一个善良且有思想的年轻人。
2.He heard someone following him,and glanced round. He caught sight __
of
__ a dark figure in the shadows.
解析:句意:他听到有人在跟踪他,便向周围扫了一眼,发现阴暗处有一个黑影。catch sight of看见;瞥见,符合句意。
3.The equipment for disabled people should be __
within
__ easy reach in public places.
解析:考查介词短语。句意:在公共场所,残疾人使用的设施应该方便残疾人。由句意可知,填within,within easy reach在附近(距离不远)。
4.Scientists have found evidence __
that
__ global warming caused the world's first horses to become smaller nearly 50 million years ago.
解析:考查同位语从句。句意:科学家们已经找到证据,证明大约5000万年前,全球变暖使世界上首批马的个头变小了。根据句意可知,空后说的是evidence的内容,并且句中不缺少成分,所以用that引导同位语从句。
5.—When did you get home last night?
—It was almost midnight __
when
__ we arrived home.
解析:考查状语从句。句意:——你们昨晚什么时候到家的?——我们到家的时候差不多是午夜了。答语中“It was almost midnight”为主句,空处引导时间状语从句,应用连词when。此题容易误填that,误把答语当作强调句型。如果是强调句型,应是:It was at midnight that we arrived home。
6.—Have you finished the report?
—Oh, sorry.It was so noisy in the office that I couldn't settle __
down
__ to write anything.
解析:答语句意:哦,抱歉。办公室里太吵了以至于我都静不下心来写东西。settle down意为“平静下来;专心于”。
7.At the meeting,all the people were deeply impressed __
with
__ her brilliant report.
解析:句意:会议上,所有人都对他精彩的报告留下了深刻的印象。impress sb.with.../sb.be impressed with...以……给某人留下深刻印象。
8.Most people would agree that nuclear science should be developed to benefit the human beings __
rather

解析:句意:绝大多数人同意核科技发展应该造福人类而非危害人类。rather than表示“而不是;而非”之意。
9.—Our journey cost a lot of money.
—Really? Well,that doesn't matter __
so/as
__ long as you enjoyed yourselves.
解析:句意:——我们的旅行花了很多钱。——真的吗?不过没关系,只要你们玩得愉快。as/so long as“只要”。
10.A company__
whose
__ profits from home markets are declining may seek opportunities abroad.
解析:句意:一家在国内市场利润下降的公司可能会去国外谋求机会。分析题意和句子结构可知,主句中a company是主语,may seek是谓语,opportunities是宾语,而所填词要引导一个定语从句,该从句中profits是主语,are是系动词,declining是表语,profits前缺少定语,而且profits与先行词构成所属关系,故用whose引导定语从句,同时whose在从句中作profits的定语,符合题意和结构要求。
11.What we expect from you is working hard __
rather
__ than hardly working.
解析:句意:我们期待你的是努力做事,而不是几乎不做事。working hard 和hardly working为完全相反的两个概念,显然前后为对照、对比关系,是努力做事,而不是(rather than)几乎不做事。
12.Facing up to your problems rather __
than
__ running away from them is the best approach to working things out.
解析:句意:勇于面对你的问题而不是逃避它们是解决事情的最好办法。由语境可知,此处表示“面对问题而不是(rather than)逃避问题”。
