Ⅰ.单项填空 1．(2008·重庆高考)In many places in China，________bicycle is still ________poplar means of transportation. A．a；the　　　　　　　　　B．/；a C．the；a D．the；the 解析　句意：在中国的许多地方，自行车仍然是一种受人欢迎的交通工具。bicycle指种类时，要用a bicycle，the bicycle或bicycles。means指“手段”，单复数同形，自行车只能属于一种交通手段，所以means前面要用不定冠词。 答案　C 2．It ________ me that I should treat myself a dinner after such an exhausting examination. A．happened B．struck C．occurred D．took 解析　句意：我突然想到，经过了那样一个令人疲惫不堪的考试后，我应当让自己好好吃一顿饭。此句要用It struck me that...句式表示“突然想起……”，occurred后面要接介词to。 答案　B 3．(2010·江苏省常州市第一学期期末)Unable to find jobs，many young people ________ illegal behavior，such as stealing，and were usually the main suspects when anything went missing. A．take after B．take in C．take to D．take down 解析　句意：许多年轻人找不到工作，只好求助于非法行为，比如说偷窃等。因此，当有东西丢失时，他们通常就是主要的嫌疑犯。take after“与……想象”；take in“吸收；理解；欺骗”；take to“开始，喜欢，沉溺于，求助于”；take down“拿下，记下，拆卸”。 答案　C 4．(2011·杭州一次质检)The book didn’t________children probably because the author employed too many scientific terms in it. A．apply to B．appeal to C．intend to D．lead to 解析　句意：孩子们对这本书不感兴趣很可能是因为作者用了太多的科技术语。appeal to sb.意为：attract sb.，interest sb.吸引某人，使某人感兴趣。此外appeal to还有“向某人呼吁”的意思；apply to sb.向某人申请；lead to导致，通向。intend后可加to do sth.意为：打算做某事。 答案　B 5．(2011·兰州一中期中)The way he did it was different ________we were used to.
