  • 第1题:

    Which of the following shows the proper pronunciation of "for" in the sentence "1 will be right here waiting for you"?


    答案:D
    解析:
    考查弱读。在英语口语中,有时由于语速快或在句子中处于次要位置而不被强调等原因,某些元音会被弱读。通常情况下,冠词、介词、代词、连词等虚词在句子中要弱读。弱读规律的第二阶梯是所有元音经过一定程度弱化后都可以变为/a/音,这使元音发生了较大程度的弱化,是所有元音共有的弱化状态。例如:for,from,of'to,some等。故选D。

  • 第2题:

    Which of the following shows the correct sentence stress in normal cases


    A.His 'brother is my 'best Mend.

    B.They 'help one 'another in their work.

    C.They have 'been in the 'countryside recently.

    D.She 'thought herself 'better 'than 'anyone else.

    答案:A
    解析:
    考查句子重读规则。在英语连贯的说话和朗读中,有些词说得或读得又轻又快,而且较为含糊。有些词则说得或读得又重又慢,而且较为清晰。那些说得或读得响亮而清晰的词就是句子重音所在。一般来说,在句子中需重读的词都是实词,比如.名词、动词(除be动词和助动词外)、形容词、副词、指示代词等;不重读的多为虚词,比如,冠词、连词、介词、人称代词、相互代词等。但这也不是绝对的,一个词在句中重读与否,同它在句中所起的意义和作用有密切的关系。B、C、D三项中均有不属于重读范围的词。即B项one another是相互代词,C项been是be动词的过去分词形式,D项than是介词。故选A。

    单选题
    Which is the best sentence to insert between sentence 13 and sentence 14?
    A

    Examples such as this demonstrate that incentives can be very effective.

    If the penalty had been greater, perhaps it would have had the desired effect.

    C

    Clearly, rewards are more effective in most situations than punishments.

    D

    E

    正确答案: E
    解析:
    插入句是在对一项鼓励措施没有效果的讨论之后,在这段话的结束语之前,因此插入此处的句子应能对这个鼓励项目做个总结,B符合。因为这个句子主要讨论了这个鼓励项目不起作用的原因,A和D不合逻辑。C不合适,因为这段话没有讨论奖励和惩罚的价值。E没有传达出任何与讨论相关的信息。

    D

    Begin the sentence with For instance.

    E

    Change to behave to behaving.

    B

    Although,

    C

    And,

    D

    To protect them,

    E

    Additionally,


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    一个句子不能用“and”开始,所以C项可排除。因为这个句子与之前表述的思想既不形成对比也不是前面句子的进一步阐释,所以B和E项错误。因为之前的句子讨论的是龙虾的保护,而不是“breeding”,所以A项错误。只有D项合适。
