4.The clerk _______ a thief once had to leave the co-operation.
A.who is suspected of being B.suspected of being
C.who was suspected to be D.suspecting to
答案:B
提示:本题考查动词suspect的用法。suspect...to be.../suspect...of...是常见结构。由once可知“这个职员被怀疑是小偷”发生在谓语动词之前，可用who had been suspected of being/to be来表示，或者用过去分词短语suspected of being/to be。
5.Everything goes _______.
A.correctly B.exactly C.smoothly D.steadily
答案:C
提示:本题考查副词的区别。句子意思是“一切进展顺利”。smoothly adv.顺利地，平稳地；根据句子语境，用smoothly 最适合。注意smooth不仅可以作形容词用，还可以作动词，可以组成一些短语，smooth away消除(困难等)；smooth down 使平静。

A.Using;whoever B.Only on;whomever

提示:only 修饰状语或状语从句时，后面的句子要部分倒装。whomever(不论谁)引导宾语从句又作talk with 的宾语。
8. _______,I think,and the problems could be settled.
A.If you double your efforts B.So long as you keep your spirits
C.A bit more efforts D.Making great efforts
答案:C
提示:此题考查“祈使句+陈述句”句式，中间的“I think”是插入语，而and连接两个并列的句子。A bit more efforts相当于Make a bit more efforts(祈使句)。
9.This candidate has far more chances of winning the election than _______ recommended by the organizer.
A.that B.the one C.whom D.one
答案:B
提示:than后明显不是定语从句，排除C项；空格后有定语修饰不能用that，且表示特指，故正确答案为B。
10.— _______my advice ?
—_______.
A.What does she follow;It depends on B.What if she will follow;It will depend
C.When does she follow;It all depends D.What if she follows;It depends

Which of the following is not proper?

A.Having not been written carefully B.Not writing carefully
C.Having written not carefully D.Not having been written carefully
答案:D
提示:分词的否定式应将not放在分词的前面，排除A、C两项；分词的逻辑主语就是句子的主语，the book与write之间存在被动关系，排除B项。答案为D。
14.No sooner_______ arrived _______he was asked to leave again.
A.he had;than B.had he;than
C.he had;when D.had he;when
答案:B
提示:no sooner...than...表示“一……就……”。no sooner位于句首时，主句部分倒装，正确答案为B。
15.(2010重庆高考) Millions of pounds worth of damage _______ by a storm which swept across the north of England last night.
A.has been caused B.had been caused
C.will be caused D.will have been caused
答案:A

Ⅳ.阅读理解(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)
Percy’s mysterious(神秘的)disappearance upset everybody a great deal.Percy is a performer in a night-club and just before he was due to appear on the stage,it was discovered that he was not in his usual place.There was certainly good cause to worry because Percy is a dangerous snake and he is over six feet long.
The search for Percy lasted several days and a great number of people joined in.As Percy could not possibly have gone out into the streets,he must still be hiding somewhere in the club.The searchers found that some of the boards in Percy’s room had rotted and there was a gap(间隙)in the floor.It seemed likely that Percy had slipped under the floor and then crept behind a wall where there was a nice warm central heating unit.
The manager of the club suggested that Percy might have found some mice behind the wall and eaten them.Since then he had probably curled round the warm pipes and gone to sleep.As a snake that has had a satisfying meal can sleep for several days continuously,a determined effort had to be made to get him out.The hot water was therefore turned off immediately and the temperature in the room fell to a few degrees above zero.But Percy,who has the reputation(名誉)of being a lazy creature,made no attempt to come out.The manager then tried something else.He placed a dish full of tasty delicacies(精美食品)near the broken floor-boards.Again Percy failed to appear.With the hot water turned off,it was decided that Percy must be freezing by now,so an electric fire was put into his room to encourage him to come in and warm himself.To help him make up his mind even more quickly,cold air was blown under the floor-boards.Even these measures did not succeed,so there was only one thing left to do.The next morning,the whole wall was carefully knocked down brick by brick so as not to frighten Percy with too much noise.The hot water pipes were gradually laid bare,but,to their astonishment,the searchers found no sign of Percy anywhere.
1.Why did Percy’s mysterious disappearance upset everybody a great deal?
A.He was an actor on the stage. B.He was a dangerous snake.
C.He was only six feet long. D.He was a performer in a night-club.
答案:B
提示:本文是用幽默诙谐的笔调叙述故事的。文章的开头会使读者误以为Percy是一个人，读到第一段最后才会知道原来是一条用于表演节目的危险的蛇。
2.People think he must still be hiding somewhere in the club because ________.
A.he could not possibly have gone out into the street
B.he was a night-club performer
C.there was a gap in the floor
D.Percy liked to stay under the floor
答案:A
3.The hot water was turned off to ________.
A.cool the snake B.force Percy out
C.let Percy have a reputation D.let Percy enjoy the meal
答案:B
提示:文中说到该蛇可能盘在温暖的暖气管道上睡觉，所以人们停供热水，目的是想把蛇弄出来。
4.Cold air was blown under the floor-boards to help Percy to make up his mind to ________.
A.stay B.sleep C.eat D.come out
答案:D
5.The sentence “The hot water pipes were gradually laid bare” means “________”.
A.everything around the hot water pipes were taken away
B.the hot water pipes were barely put down
C.the hot water pipes were broken down
D.the water in the hot water pipes was let out
答案:A
提示:lay的基本意思是“使……处于某种状态”。lay sth.bare意为“使某物变光秃”。暖气管道一般都有厚厚的包裹物减少热量损耗。
