参考答案
一、听力部分（本题共20小题；每小题0．5分，满分10分）
略
二、选择题（15分）
1．A
【解析】句意：如果我又失败了，请给我第二次机会，争取更好的结果。
考查不定冠词的用法。在英语中表示“再几，又几”用a+序数词+名词，a secnd chance“再一次机会”；第二空表示泛指，用不定冠词，better首字母是辅音音素用不定冠词a，a better result“一个更好的结果”。故选A。
2．B
【解析】句意：天要下雨了。照顾好自己，带上雨伞。
考查代词辨析。yu你；yurself你自己。根据“Take care f...”可知要照顾好自己，空一用反身代词；根据“take an umbrella with...”可知你要带把伞，作宾语用代词宾格yu。故选B。
3．B
【解析】句意：据报道，中华白海豚的生活区越来越少。相反，长江中的渔船越来越多。
考查形容词比较级。less and less和fewer and fewer意思是“越来越少”，less and less修饰不可数名词，fewer and fewer修饰可数名词复数；mre：更多；larger：更大。living areas是可数名词复数，可知填fewer and fewer；the number f ：……的数量，表达数量多少只能用“大小”修饰，可知第二个空填larger；故选B。
4．D
【解析】句意：墙上的灯坏了。他想装一个新的。
考查动词短语辨析。put up张贴；put dwn放下；put n穿上；put in安装。根据“The light n the wall is brken.”可知，他想装一个新的。故选D。
5．D
【解析】句意：广播说下周会有很多雨，也许我们会休息两天
考查名词的用法。根据“there will be much...”可知此处缺少主语，用不可数名词rain，排除AC；根据“”可知是有两天的休息，即have tw days ff。故选D。
6．C
【解析】句意：我不知道明天会不会下雨。如果明天下雨，我会在家看书。
考查时态。根据语境可知，第一句是if引导的宾语从句时，表达的动作还没有发生，应用一般将来时，第二句是if引导的时间状语从句，遵循“主将从现”原形，从句应用一般现在时，故选C。
7．A
【解析】
【详解】句意：苏在暴风雪中开车时，汽车撞到了树上。
考查连词辨析。when当；as随着；while当；as sn as一……就。根据“Mr Su was driving in the car crashed int a tree.”可知当车撞到树上时，crash是非延续性动词，不能用while，而as强调一件事情正在发生，另一件事也正在进行当中，不符合语境。故选A。
8．D
【解析】
【详解】句意：——难道你刚才没听见我说话吗？——是的，我没有听见。对不起，我在思考一道数学题。
考查一般过去时和一般疑问句。问句是一般过去时，答语也应该用一般过去时来回答，排除A和B；根据“I'm srry I was thinking abut a math prblem.”可知，没有听到刚才所说的话，故选D。
9．B
【解析】
【详解】句意：——你为什么不给我开门？——对不起。我在看足球比赛，没听见你说话。
考查过去进行时。根据“Why didn’t yu pen the dr fr me”可知当时正在看球赛，所以没去开门，此处用过去进行时，主语是I，be动词用was。故选B。
10．C
【解析】句意：我想在书店买一本故事书，但是里面一本也没有了。
考查代词。这几个词都表示否定含义，nne既可以指代物也可以指代人，n ne只可以指代人，nthing只能够指代物，n表示没有。n ne，nthing只能单独使用，后面不跟f短语。英语中nne强调数量上一个也没有，nthing强调什么东西也没有。根据题干可知，故选C。
11．C
【解析】句意：他说的话让我昏昏欲睡，差点就睡着了。
考查形容词辨析。asleep睡着的；sleepy困倦的。根据“What he said made me feel”可知是让人感到困倦，空一用sleepy；fall asleep“睡着”。故选C。
12．D
【解析】句意：我们希望他现在能努力学习。
考查宾语从句。hpe不能使用结构hpe sb．t d，排除B，故此处是宾语从句，从句主语是he，谓语是wrk，排除AC。故选D。
13．D
【解析】句意：我爸爸昨天让我读英语。这个句子的结构是：S+V+DO+OC。
考查分析简单句的句子成分。这是一个简单句，句子结构是：主+谓+宾+宾补。故选D。
14．A
【解析】句意：我们应该尽我们所能防止猎人杀死动物。
考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，“d what we can”的目的是“prevent the animals”，故空一用动词不定式表目的，排除CD；prevent sb．ding sth.“阻止某人做某事”，空二用动名词。故选A。
15．A
【解析】句意：——下周六我们将举行一个聚会，我希望你能来。——真可惜。我那天有个会议要参加。还是要感谢你的邀请。
考查交际用语的用法。What a pity真可惜；Gd luck祝你好运；Never d it again别再这样做了；Well dne干得好。根据“I have a meeting t attend that day.”可知，有会议要参加，因此对不能参加聚会感到遗憾。故选A。

【16题详解】
句意：她的自行车太旧了，而且也需要修理。
new新的；ld旧的；beautiful漂亮的；mdern现代的。根据“it needed repairing as well”，可知是旧自行车，故选B。
【17题详解】

came nearer离得近了；was ver结束了；went by经过；passed经过。根据“her dream fr a bike seemed t disappear, we thught, fr she didn't say it again”，可知这里是说圣诞节离得近了，用cme nearer，故选A。
【18题详解】
句意：我们忙着买一些漂亮的故事书，一个玩具房子，一件节日礼服和玩具。
lending借出；brrwing借入；selling卖；buying买。根据“sme beautiful stry bks, a dll huse, a hliday dress and tys.”可知，圣诞节前应该是买东西，故选D。
【19题详解】
句意：然后让我们惊讶的是，在12月24日，她说比起别的任何东西真地想要一辆自行车。
smething else其他某个东西；anything else其他任何东西；else smething表达错误；else anything表达错误。else应该放在复合不定代词的后面，所以排除CD；根据题干“she really wanted a bike mre than…”，可知是比起别的任何东西更想要自行车，故选B。
【20题详解】
句意：现在我们不知道做什么。
what什么；hw怎样；why为什么；where在哪里。分析句子结构，后面三项都是疑问副词，不能直接做d的宾语；what t d做什么，符合语境，故选A。
【21题详解】
句意：我们忙着准备圣诞晚餐，收拾孩子的礼物、父母的礼物、兄弟的礼物和朋友的礼物，一直忙到午夜。
in在……里面；until直到；n在……上面；during在……期间。根据上文“We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing children’s presents, parents’ presents, a brther’s present and friends’ presents”，可知是一直忙到半夜，故选B。
【22题详解】
句意：所以没有时间为我们的小女儿买一辆“合适的自行车”。
enugh足够；still a little还有点；much许多的，修饰不可数名词；n没有。根据下文“When we thught we wuld make ur child unhappy, we felt srry”，结合上文提到一直忙，可知是没有时间，故选D。
【23题详解】
