Unit 1 Cultural Relics reading课时作业

Ⅰ.单项填空

1．He felt very sad that though he worked very _______indeed，he was not able to jump _____.

A．hardly；high B．hard；high

C．hardly；highly D．hard；highly

答案　B　[有些考生可能会认为动词后面应用副词修饰，而形容词后面加­ly就成副词了，于是错选A、C或D。其实，hard和high都既可作形容词，也可作副词。hard作形容词时意为"坚硬的；难懂的"，作副词时，意为"努力地；猛烈地"；而hardly是副词，意为"几乎不"；high作形容词时，意为"高的，有......高度的"，作副词时意为"在高处，向高处"；而highly是副词，意为"高度地"，表示抽象意义。根据句子语境可知，正确答案为B。]

2．The case is being looked into；a team consisting of top Chinese police officers will leave for Japan soon to ________the truth.

A．uncover B．recover C．indicate D．represent

答案　A　[句意：这个案子正在调查中，由中国高级警官组成的调查团很快将赴日本揭开事实真相。uncover"揭露"；recover"恢复"；indicate"指示"；represent"代表，象征"。故选A项。]

3．By the time my friend gets to Australia next Sunday，I________for America.

　　A．will have left B．might have left

　　C．will leave D．am leaving

答案 A [考查动词的时态。句意：当我的朋友下周日到达澳大利亚时，我也已经离开去了美国。by the time用作连词，引导时间状语从句，意为"到......时候"，当它引导的从句的时态用一般现在时时，主句的时态通常用将来完成时。此处指到下周日"我"将已经去了美国，故用将来完成时。]

4．________money is concerned，I always try to be very careful.

A．Where B．When C．Why D．How

答案　A　[句意：凡是涉及钱的地方，我总是尽量小心谨慎。where...is concerned＝as far as...is concerned"就......而言"。]
