必修4 Unit 3 A taste of English humour 一、单项填空 1．According to tradition in some countries，______wedding ring is worn on the left ring finger，which is believed to be directly connected to the heart，______symbol of love. A．a；the　　　　　　　 B．the；a C．the；the D．a；a 解析：考查冠词的用法。句意：根据某些国家的传统，婚戒被带在左手的无名指上，都认为无名指与心脏连在一起，这是爱的象征。第一个空“the＋名词单数”表示类别；第二个空a symbol of love“爱的象征”，因为这不是唯一的，故用a。 答案：B 2．The graduate can take the computer apart and put it back together again.I certainly wish he ______ me how. A．teaches B．will teach C．has taught D．would teach 解析：wish that＋宾语从句，宾语从句中的谓语动词应用虚拟语气来表示。此处是与将来相反的虚拟语气，因此用would do sth.或could do sth.。句意：那个刚毕业的学生能够把电脑拆开后又组装好。我真希望他能教我。 答案：D 3．They are ______ children that they can’t look after themselves. A．so little B．such little C．so small D．too small 解析：such...that...结构。little意为“小的”，如果是表示数量的话，则用so。句意：他们太小不能照顾自己。 答案：B 4．This is Mary speaking.I’m calling mainly to appreciate ______ my son for me this afternoon. A．you to look after B．your looking after C．you for looking after D．you looked after 解析：考查固定搭配。appreciate doing是固定搭配“感激……”，此处跟了动名词的复合结构，appreciate后不能接人作宾语。句意：我是Mary。我打电话主要是为今天下午你替我照顾儿子向您表示感激之情。 答案：B 5．It seemed to me that she was in doubt______Timmy lived or died. A．why B．how C．that D．whether 解析：考查名词性从句。根据句意及空格后面的or可知，此题应选D项。句意：在我看来她拿不准Timmy是死是活。whether...or...意为“是……还是……”，是常用结构。此处 whether引导同位语从句，解释doubt的具体内容。 答案：D 6．—Have you decided which subject you’ll major in in college? —Not yet.There’re three subjects______，but I haven’t made my decision. A．for choosing B．being chosen C．to choose from D．to be chosen 解析：考查非谓语动词。本题用不定式作定语，表示“在众多的东西中挑选”用choose from，在there be 结构中不定式作定语可用主动形式表示被动含义。 答案：C 7．Many children are ______ in the countryside when their parents flood into the cities for jobs. A．left behind B．left off C．left aside D．left out 解析：考查动词短语辨析。句意：当他们的父母涌入城市找工作时许多孩子被留在了家里。leave behind“把……留下”符合语境。leave off“中断，停止”；leave aside“搁置一边”；leave out“漏掉”。 答案：A 8．It is in films ______ he created the famous image of the lonely tramp______ people love
