题目内容
|
解析:
(1) |
one of后面一般要接最高级的形式,表示“最……的之一”。 |
(2) |
make此处为“制造”之意。 |
(3) |
根据常识及下文的“noise and smoke”来推断,最早的火车是蒸汽火车,并且只有蒸汽火车才有噪音大、烟多的情况。所以选C项。 |
(4) |
依据下文推断,人们对他试验蒸汽火车不满,所以选B项,表示他遇到来自政府……的“麻烦”。 |
(5) |
当时人们把火车想像得太坏,认为烟雾会“害死”他们的牛、马和羊。 |
(6) |
由空后的burst判断,只有engine才有可能这样,即“发动机爆炸”。 |
(7) |
pull down意为“推倒”;blow away意为“吹走”;pass意为“经过”。hot coals既不能推倒也不会吹走他们的房子,但能使房子着火,所以选C项。 |
(8) |
根据下文人们对火车的可怕描述,可得知当时绝大多数人相信他们所说的蒸汽机的危害性,所以选A项。 |
(9) |
say和speak后若接人,应加介词to,因此排除A、B项;warn意为“警告”,与句意不符,应排除D项。答案为C项,tell sb.that…表示“告诉某人某事”。 |
(10) |
火车行驶的道路应称作rails或railways。 |
(11) |
short of意为“缺少”;empty of意为“空的”;without意为“没有”。根据上下文,此处是向人们阐述火车的用途,不应是不载货、不带客的,故排除A、C、D项。full of表示“装满的;满载的”。 |
(12) |
there be后应加名词,可排除B项;danger为不可数名词,可排除D项;a lot of danger与上下文意思不符。故选A项,表示告诉人们没有多大危害。 |
(13) |
从当时的情况看出,要说服人们相信这一切,是一件很“难”的事。 |
(14) |
get/cause/force后接to do作宾补,make后接省略to的不定式作其宾补,所以选C项。 |
(15) |
sometime意为“某个时候”;a few times意为“几次”;sometimes意为“有时候”,都不符合句意。some time意为“一些时候”,指时间段,表示“过了一段时间之后”。 |
(16) |
sell意为“卖”;drive意为“驾驶”;pull意为“拉;拖”;help意为“帮助”。根据上下文判断应选B项,表示由他本人亲自驾驶的火车。 |
(17) |
上文讲到他终于说服人们相信了他的话,该句主语为the first train,不能够表达为“相信、感觉等”,而是表达为“证实”了他所说的话。 |
(18) |
关系副词when引导定语从句,修饰前面的The first day,并在定语从句中作时间状语。 |
(19) |
空后的宾语为noise,所以应选动词heard,表示“听见;听到”。 |
(20) |
in the distance意为“远处的”。 |

When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in the speech of a 13 character.

Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent copying is a help to 25 by heart.
