�、�.語法單句填空

　　1.My first ________(impress) of him was that he was a kind and thoughtful young man.

　　答案：impression　考查名詞。句意：我對(duì)他的第一印象是他是一個(gè)善良且有思想的年輕人。

　　2.He heard someone following him, and glanced round. He caught sight ________ a dark figure in the shadows.

　　答案：of　句意：他聽到有人在跟蹤他，便向周圍掃了一眼，發(fā)現(xiàn)陰暗處有一個(gè)黑影。catch sight of看見;瞥見，符合句意。

　　3.The equipment for disabled people should be ________ easy reach in public places.

　　答案：within　考查介詞短語。句意：在公共場所，殘疾人使用的設(shè)施應(yīng)該方便殘疾人。由句意可知，填within，within easy reach在附近(距離不遠(yuǎn))。

　　4.Scientists have found evidence ________ global warming caused the world's first horses to become smaller nearly 50 million years ago.

　　答案：that　考查同位語從句。句意：科學(xué)家們已經(jīng)找到證據(jù)，證明大約5000萬年前，全球變暖使世界上首批馬的個(gè)頭變小了。根據(jù)句意可知，空后說的是evidence的內(nèi)容，并且句中不缺少成分，所以用that引導(dǎo)同位語從句。

　　5.—When did you get home last night?

　　—It was almost midnight ________ we arrived home.

　　答案：when　考查狀語從句。句意：——你們昨晚什么時(shí)候到家的?——我們到家的時(shí)候差不多是午夜了。答語中“It was almost midnight”為主句，空處引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句，應(yīng)用連詞when。此題容易誤填that，誤把答語當(dāng)作強(qiáng)調(diào)句型。如果是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，應(yīng)是：It was at midnight that we arrived home。

　　6.—Have you finished the report?

　　—Oh, sorry. It was so noisy in the office that I couldn't settle ________ to write anything.

　　答案：down　答語句意：哦，抱歉。辦公室里太吵了以至于我都靜不下心來寫東西。settle down意為“平靜下來;專心于”。

　　7.At the meeting，all the people were deeply impressed ________ her brilliant report.

　　答案：with　句意：會(huì)議上，所有人都對(duì)他精彩的報(bào)告留下了深刻的印象。impress sb. with.../sb. be impressed with...以……給某人留下深刻印象。

　　8.Most people would agree that nuclear science should be developed to benefit the human beings ________ than harm them.

　　答案：rather　句意：絕大多數(shù)人同意核科技發(fā)展應(yīng)該造福人類而非危害人類。rather than表示“而不是;而非”之意。

　　9.—Our journey cost a lot of money.

　　—Really? Well，that doesn't matter ________ long as you enjoyed yourselves.

　　答案：so/as　句意：——我們的旅行花了很多錢�！�—真的嗎?不過，沒關(guān)系只要你們玩得愉快。as/so long as“只要”。

　　10.(2014·山東改編)A company ________ profits from home markets are declining may seek opportunities abroad.

　　答案：whose　句意：一家在國內(nèi)市場利潤下降的公司可能會(huì)去國外謀求機(jī)會(huì)。分析題意和句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，主句中a company是主語，may seek是謂語，opportunities是賓語，而所填詞要引導(dǎo)一個(gè)定語從句，該從句中profits是主語，are是系動(dòng)詞，declining是表語，profits前缺少定語，而且profits與先行詞構(gòu)成所屬關(guān)系，故用whose引導(dǎo)定語從句，同時(shí)whose在從句中作profits的定語，符合題意和結(jié)構(gòu)要求。
