2、词应用过去式,所以选B，began。参考译文： 作为一个社会改革者Amanda Way以的作为一个社会改革者为其事业开始于1851年,在印第安拉州的一个反奴隶制的会议上,她为这个州的妇女的权力的条约而呐喊.2.

3、semble, resemble是及物动词,其后应直接加名次名词做宾语.e.g.: He strongly resembles his father.参考译文：钟琴(发出如钟的声音的一种有键的小乐器),)是一种管弦乐打击乐器,酷似一个体型小巧的竖直钢琴.3. Thomas Paine, _, wrote Common Sense, a pamphlet that identified the American colonies with the cause of liberty.(A) writer of eloquent(B) whose eloquent writing(C) an elo
4、quent writing(D) writing eloquentkey：C分析：考点是同位语。句中的主语是Thomas Paine，谓语是wrote，所以紧跟主语后的空格应填主语的同位语或者是修饰说明主语的定语从句等等。（A）错在两处。一是writer是可数名词，前面要加冠词a；二是eloquent是形容词，没有of形容词的用法。A可改为a writer of eloquence，但是没有（C）的简洁。（B）类似定语从句的形式，但结构不对，可改为whose writing is eloquent（D）类似动名词的形式，但结构不对，可改为writing eloquent books但总的说来，
5、（A）（B）改后都没有（C）好！参考译文：Thomas Paine，一个善于生动表达的作家，写了一本认为美国殖民地与自由事业是一致的叫常识小册子常识4.

6、 as+时间 表示“长达多久”注意as long as的另外两个用法：a since（既然）e.g. As long as you are offered, I accept. (既然你已给我，我就接受)b on the condition that(以。为条件) e.g. I will cooperate as long as I am notified on time.(只要及时告诉我，我就会合作)参考译文：尽管海狸保持浅水状态极少能超过两分钟，但是它们却能在回到水面前呆在水下长到二十分钟。5. Protein digestion begins in the stomach _ends i
7、n the small intestine.(A) while(B) and(C) how(D) becausekey：B分析：考点是连词的用法。句中出现两个谓语begins和ends，显然两个谓语之前要么用and连接，要么加其它转折连接词。答案中只有and并列连接词正确。注意（A）while的用法，要么是在其后加完整的句子，要么是加doing的形式。参考译文：蛋白质的消化开始于胃中，结束于肠内。6. When natural gas burns, its_ into atoms of carbon and hydrogen.(A) hydrocarbon molecules, breakin
8、g up(B) broke up by hydrocarbon molecules(C) hydrocarbon molecules break up(D) broken up hydrocarbon moleculeskey：C分析：考点是主谓结构。由句子分析可知，空格处缺句子的主语和谓语，所以C。参考译文：当天然气燃烧的时候，它的碳氢分子分解为碳原子和氢原子。7. _ ballet dancers learn five basic positions for the arms and feet.(A) All of(B) Of every(C) All(D) Everykey：C分析：考点
9、是 不定代词of+限定词名词 的用法。这套题有n多的争议！主要是在A还是C的分歧。我的答案是C，有题为证。20005 Section Two 38题：Astronomers (use) photography and sighting telescopes (to study) the motions (of all of) the bright stars and many of the faint (one)此题正确答案是D，而C是对的。（2000-5里之所以认为all of 正确是因为前面有the motion,后面连接了the.特指。）参考译文：所有的芭蕾舞演员都学手臂和脚的五个基本位
10、置。/有关all,all of ,请大家看一些词组体会一下all ballet dancers.泛指一切芭蕾舞演员（对）all of ballet dancers无此结构（错）all of such ballet dancers同上（错）all of these/those ballet dancers对，美式英语all these/those ballet dancers对，英式英语Meigui根据Tom 老师的语法笔记补充：1、不定代词of+限定词名词 其中，不定代词是指：much, many, little, alittle, few, a few,both, all,none, som
11、e, any,either, neither. 限定词是指：冠词，代词，所有格。 这种形式中，of+限定词必须同时省略或是同时存在，如： mostbooks；mostofmybooks这是对的。 2、特殊形式：all/both+(of)+限定词名词 allofmybooksorallmybooks是对的，也就是说，这里of是可以省略的。 而这种形式：不定代词of+名词，永远都是错的！ 所以可知all of后面是the复数名词8.

12、eping colonies(B) which colonies creep(C) creeping colonies are(D) colonies creepkey：A分析：考点是宾语成分。句中的主语是some colonies,谓语是form。Form是及物动词，其后要加宾语。参考译文：苔藓虫的一些后代是很小的海生生物，它们是具有拖尾的茎须的爬行后代。9.

Natural selection is defined as the process _the cours
14、e of evolution by preserving those traits best adapted for an organisms survival.(A) to which directs(B) of which directs it(C) directs it(D) that directskey：D分析：考点是定语从句。空格前是一个完整的句子，主语是natural selection，谓语是is defined as,宾语是the process,所以紧跟process的空格应修饰process。所以D对，是定语从句。A若改为to direct则对参考译文：自然选择被定义为一

16、宾语是the Atlantic Ocean,逗号前还有一个分句,但两个分句之间没有连接词连接,所以前一个分句应该是不完整的,起一个修饰的作用.参考译文：在纽约州的Albany市和Buffalo市之间延伸了360英里的Eric运河有助于大西洋和五大湖的连接.12.The chief sources of B12,a water-soluble vitamin _ stored in the body, include meat, milk and eggs.(A)is not(B)that is not(C)not that is(D)that notkey：B分析：考点是定语从句。句子已完整，
