选修8 Unit 3 Inventors and inventions 一、单项填空 1．All the efforts that the Chinese government is making will certainly lead to ______ more peaceful and more advanced world，______ place where everyone enjoys his life and freedom. A．the；a　　　　　　　　 B．/；the C．the；the D．a；a 解析：考查冠词的用法。当world前有形容词修饰时，常与不定冠词连用，表示“一个……的世界”；第二个空a place作前面a...world的同位语。 答案：D 2．It was a matter of ______ would take the position. A．who B．whoever C．whom D．whomever 解析：句意：那是一个谁当选的问题。who would take the position在句中作介词of的宾语。 答案：A 3．He forgot the work his manager had told；______，he was scolded severely by the manager and fined heavily. A．luckily B．however C．therefore D．besides 解析：考查副词辨析。前后两个分句之间是因果关系，所以应该用表示因果关系的副词therefore。luckily“幸运地”；however“然而”；besides“除此之外(还有)”，均不符合语境。 答案：C 4．The ground is wet all over，so I’m sure it must have rained last night，______？ A．wasn’t it B．didn’t it C．isn’t it D．doesn’t it 解析：考查反意疑问句。must在句中表推测，反意疑问句应根据其后面的动词形式作相应的变化。且本句有明确的过去时间状语last night，故选B项。 答案：B 5．He is so good a teacher in this school ______ is loved by almost all the students. A．that B．which C．than D．as 解析：考查so...as...结构。在此题中as引导的是定语从句，在定语从句中as作主语，此结构还可以改为：such a good teacher...as...。注意：so...that...引导的是状语从句，此结构中that不作成分。 答案：D 6．—Do you think our basketball players played very well in the last match? —Yes.______. A．They are not nervous at all B．They couldn’t have done better C．They played naturally D．They were still young 解析：考查比较级表示最高级的用法。此处They couldn’t have done better.是一句赞扬的话。说明他们已经尽了最大努力，不会打得比这再好了。这是最好的。 答案：B 7．We should try every effort to prevent violence from happening at school，______ more and more students would drop out of school ______ their personal safety could not be guaranteed. A．for；now that B．for；if C．though；so long as D．though；if only 解析：考查连词。第一个空用for，表原因；第二个空用if，表条件。句意：我们必须竭尽全力阻止校园暴力的发生，因为如果人身安全得不到保障，就会有越来越多的学生辍学。 答案：B 8．What we can see there is ______ remained of the city after the strong earthquake. A．/ B．that C．what D．it 解析：考查名词性从句。sth.remained of“……所剩下的东西”。what引导的是表语从句，在从句中what作rema
