Question

Driving in China
I have been driving cars since I reached the pedals(踏板). In Canada you 1 16 to get a driver’s license. I 2 myself to be a very good driver.
I visited China 20 years ago. I with my wife was in Shanghai to give a paper at a conference. We 3 the number of bicycles on the roads and the few cars. In Canada almost each family has one car, but it was 4 that most Chinese depended on bicycles.
I 5 Shanghai and to other Chinese cities many times since then and have watched the fast changes on the roads. There are far fewer bicycles now but 6 cars. The roads are crowded, the government has been forced to limit the number of days some cars can 7 and the traffic jams are almost constant (经常的). So are the accidents. On a recent visit I saw four or five
8 within a two-week period.
To get a driver’s license in Canada, you must drive, with an examiner, on real roads and in real traffic. However, in China you learn on a closed course, 9 real traffic, get a license and only then are able to drive under real roads.
Driving in Canada and driving in China 10 two different experiences. In Canada there are traffic jams but they aren’t so bad. We have more traffic lights; we obey them and drivers are usually
11, allowing other cars to cut in front of them knowing it won’t make much difference. In China, if you stop 12 another car cut in front of you will probably be there for a long time because once one car gets in, dozens of 13 will follow.
I would rather 14 the bus than drive my car in downtown Shanghai and Beijing. Because it’s 15 and stronger than most things that might run into it.

1.情态动词辨析。A.必须，一定；B.可以，可能；C.能，能够；D.can的过去式。联系下文描述，可知在加拿大你必须到十六岁才能获得驾照。故选A。
2.动词辨析。A.看待，把……看做；B.怀疑，想知道；C.考虑，认为；D.想象，认为。think, regard, consider都有“看作”的意思，然而搭配不同。think一般与of搭配，形成think of…；regard与as搭配，形成regard …as; consider可以与as搭配，形成consider… as，也可以跟不定式,形成consider sb. to do sth.的搭配。根据下文to be a very good driver.可知此处指的是，我认为我自己是个好司机。故选C。
3.短语辨析。A.喜欢，痴迷于；B.愤怒于；C.对……感到满意； D.吃惊于。联系下文，可知此处指的是我们吃惊于路上自行车和汽车的数量。故选D。
4.联系前文描述，可知此处指的是，很明显，大部分中国人依赖于自行车。故选B，明显的。
5.在完成时态中have been to 是已经去过某处，并且已经回来了。have gone to 是已经去了某处，但是到目前为止还没有回来。 have been in 是已经在某处，并且现在还在那里，而且有可能要延续下去。have come to 是已经到了某处，但是到目前为止还没有走。结合语境可知此处指的是作者去过某处，已经回来，故选A。
6.联系前文描述及转折连词but，可知此处指的是更多的汽车。故选B，更多的。
7.drive驾驶；allow允许。结合语境可知此处指的是限制能够驾车的日子。结合语境可知从句的主语some cars是动作对象，故用被动语态，选A。
8.联系前一句描述，可知此处指的是，我看到四到五起交通事故，故选C，事故。
9.联系上下文描述，可知此处指的是没有真实地上路练习。故选B，没有。
10.本句主语是由and连接的两个动名词短语，表示复数含义，故谓语动词用复数，选D。
11.联系下文，可知此处指的是通常，司机都很有礼貌。故选A，礼貌的。
12.动词辨析及非谓语动词。want想要；let让。stop后接不定式表示停下来去做另一件事，接动名词表示停止正在做的事情。联系下文，可知此处指的是停下来让其它车辆插入到你前面，故选C。
13.代词辨析。A.泛指任何多个；B.多个中另一个；C.另外一个；D.其他人/物。结合语境可知此处指的是，其它车会跟进来。故选D。

15.结合语境可知此处指的是公交车比大部分东西都大，故选B，更大的。
