51. D【解析】句意理解题。句中的斜体字部分from excessive reading是眼睛红的原因,故选D。句意:由于看书太多,她的眼睛红了。

52. A【解析】考查情态动词。must用在肯定句中表示较有把握的推测,意为―一定‖。当must后接完成时的时候,表示对已发生的事情的推测。根据句意,此处应该为有把握的推测,故选A。句意:南希去上班了,但她的车还在那儿。她一定是坐公交车去的。

53. D【解析】考查惯用结构。enough to do sth.是惯用结构,enough前必须有其他形容词或副词。句意:他感到自己还没有强壮到可以去国外旅行。

54. C【解析】考查宾语从句。本句中after后需要一个宾语从句,该宾语从句缺主语,因此需一个作主语的连接代词。只有what可在宾语从句中充当主语,故选C。句意:在经过似乎漫长的等待后,轮到他进入人事经理的办公室了。55. B【解析】考查状语从句。as用作连词时,和though同义,而从句中的实义动词或系动词后的形容词需提前。句中fool是形容词,位于句首,符合as 引导让步状语从句的使用条件,故选B。句意:杰瑞再愚蠢也不可能做出这样的事儿。

56. C【解析】句意表达题。不定代词each在句中可作主语、宾语、定于和同位语,用作同位语时,each可用在代词后。ABD均符合语法要求,故选C。57. B【解析】考查反意疑问句。本句中含有否定含义的副词seldom,故反意时用肯定形式does she。选项A的not与seldom矛盾;选项C和D中的would 与句中的goes不吻合。故选B。句意:她很少去剧院,是吗?

58. D【解析】句意理解题。从句意可以判断,这里的head of the department和an expert in translation说的都是Dr. Johnson,可见两部分之间是并列关系,故选D。句意:约翰逊博士是系主任,翻译专家。

60. A【解析】考查虚拟语气。形容词为necessary,important,impossible,strange,natural,essential等时,在―It+be+形容词或过去分词+主语从句‖结构中,主语从句要用虚拟语气,其中的should可省略。故选A。句意:他必须按时交作业。

61. D【解析】句子成分题。在It’s no use waiting for her中,it为形式主语,句子真正的主语是动名词短语waiting for her,故选D。A宾语,B状语,C补语。

63. A【解析】句子成分题。宾语后面加上一个词或一个短语用来对宾语的特征、状态等情况进行补充说明,这个成分称之为宾语补足语。它和前面的宾语一起形成―复合宾语‖,宾语和宾语补足语之间存在一种逻辑上的主谓关系。选项A 中的manager和宾语John之间存在逻辑主谓关系,故为宾语补足语。而选项B、

C、D中的动词后面都是双宾语。

65. B【解析】考查非谓语动词。本句中缺失主语。动名词短语作主语时,通常用于表示一件已知的事或经验。不定式短语通常用来表示一件未完成的事或目的。本句中―长得不高‖是一件已知的事情,所以选择动名词短语作主语,表示

否定意义,not要放在动名词前面,故选B。句意:长得不高不该成为生活和工作中的一个严重不足之处。

51. D【解析】考查物主代词。逗号与逗号之间的是作为插入语,是association 的定语从句,在此association作为一个整体概念出现,且其定语从句中也是用单数谓语动词has pressed,后面对应的物主代词也应该是单数概念的,故选D。句意:我们的协会一直在敦促给残疾人更多的就业机会,并且讲在最近公布建议书。publish公布,proposal提议;建议,press for敦促;迫切要求。

52. D【解析】考查虚拟语气。从句部分是对过去的虚拟,省略了if,因此出现倒装,但主句部分出现明显的时间标志词now,可见是对现在的虚拟,故应是would/could/should/might do的形式,而get为瞬间动词,不用进行时,故选D。句意:如果朱迪数学考试时更认真一些,她现在成绩就会好多了。

53. D【解析】这是专四考试频考知识点了:A is to B what C is to D,由what 引导的方式状语从句。句意:9相对于3等同于3相对于1。

54. C【解析】in that引导原因状语从句。for that不能引导从句,A和D都引导定语从句。句意:人之所以有别于动物在于他们能思考,会说话。

55. B【解析】考查由much as引导的让步状语从句,意为―尽管‖=although。而as much意为―同样地,这样地‖。A和D不是固定搭配。句意:尽管他想周末和朋友出去,却不得不留下完成作业。

56. A【解析】考查时间状语从句。四个选项都可以引导定语从句,但这里没有后面从句修饰的先行词,故出现的不是定语从句。从两部分之间的关系来看,后面部分提到了时间段,因此填入when,成为时间状语从句。句意:去年我去巴黎拜访朋友时玩得非常开心。

57. D【解析】考查限定词位置的用法。英语中的限定词可分为前位限定词、中位限定词和后位限定词,一个名词前的限定词只能按照前位、中位、后位的顺序出现,其中两个前位或两个中位词不能同时出现在同一个名词前。many是后位限定词,而his是中位限定词,与限定词排序规则有悖,故D为答案。A中all是前位,his是中位,符合规则;B中half是前位,his是中位限定词;C中her是中位,few是后位限定词。

58. C【解析】考查反义疑问句。复合句的反义疑问句应反问主句部分,本句主句是否定祈使句don’t forget to,故祈使部分用will you。句意:你读完那本书后,别忘了把它放回我的书桌上,好吗?

59. A【解析】本题关键在于分析句中的wisely是修饰refused的,还是修饰refused to spend his money的,可直接修饰refuse的副词有很多,如firmly,flatly,gracefully,politely等,但当refuse后接动词不定式短语时,副词修饰的就是refuse to do这个动宾结构了。如:resolutely refuse to answer坚决拒绝回答。可见题干中句子的含义是:他明智地拒绝花钱(这件事情),这表示他拒绝花钱这件事是很明智的,故选A。60. A【解析】as…as one can表示―尽可能地‖。A和B的区别就在于主语不同,B是they could be的省略形式,因为主句中出现的动词是stood,不是be动词,因此该选项中的动词与前面不符;it could be表示的意思是―在可能的情况下‖,it指代前面提到的内容。句意:他们站在那儿尽可能地随意聊天。

61. A【解析】对Who told the news to the teacher的标准回答是Jim did,即Jim did it的省略句。此外,还可以用其他代词指代问句中出现的内容,so和that都可以指代前文中提到的内容,而this通常用于指代下文内容。

62. C【解析】句中is后为表语从句,该从句中缺少主语,that引导名词性从句时不做成分,where为地点状语,which引导非限制性定语从句,故这里选what (做双重身份:表语从句引导词和表语从句中的主语)。

63. D【解析】考查一般现在时的用法。在书报的标题、球赛现场报导、小说著作等的情况介绍常用一般现在时。

64. A【解析】考查倍数表达法。本题考查的就是倍数表达法中较为常见的一种:倍数+the size/amount/length/width/depth/weight等抽象名词+of:The earth is 49 times the size of the moon. 其他几种常见的倍数表达法有:倍数+as+adj/adv +as;倍数+adj/adv比较级+than。

65. B【解析】考查情态动词的用法。must作为情态动词除了表示命令、必须等意思之外,还有表示肯定推测,可能会怎么样的意思。A:你必须离开;C:你必须8点前到这儿;D:你必须按时完成阅读作业。如上三个意思均为―肯定、必须‖。B:你一定感到很累了。表示肯定的判断,表示可能性,故选B。66. D【解析】at sea是固定搭配,表示―茫然,不知所措‖。句意:他开始上大学时对自己所学的经济学专业确实感到很茫然。

67. C【解析】同一词根衍生出来的形容词辨析。considerate意为―考虑他人的,体恤别人的,考虑周详的‖=thoughtful;considerable意为―相当的,可观的,数目庞大的‖(可以巧记,字母多一个,所以数量大);considered和considering 分别是动词consider的过去分词和现在分词,不符语境,不做形容词,故排除。句意:在路上,开车者应该注意并考虑到骑车的人。

68. A【解析】at home意为―舒适。无拘束‖;at most意为―最多,不超过‖;at heart 意为―在内心里,在本质上‖;at house不是固定搭配。句意:萨利有点儿害羞,但是老师发现她在和别人讨论一部新电影时非常从容。

69. D【解析】capitalize on是固定搭配,意为―利用‖(充分利用某事物;从某事物中获利;投机倒把;自恃);句意:该公司利用了商业竞争者判断的失误。capitalize用大写字母写或印刷;使…资本化;估计…的价值;把……定为首都。

70. B【解析】repeat:重复;remake:重新制作;reapply:重新申请;revise:修改。根据常识考试不及格需要重新课程。句意:蒂姆这学期三门课考试不及格,因此他下学期不得不重修。

71. A【解析】come in handy意为―迟早会有用,派上用场‖;其他几个词与come in无搭配。句意:留着这本参考书,哪天可能会派上用场。

72. C【解析】beyond意为―为…所不能及,多于,超出‖,其他介词无此义项。句意:一般人实在无法理解这个讲话者提出的问题。

73. D【解析】tool既可指抽象意义上的工具,也可以指实物。instrument特指专业人员如医生和牙医使用的要求极高精度的仪器,如听诊器或超声波钻等;句意丝毫学习工具,故选tool。design意为―设计‖,agency意为―代理‖,均不符合题意。句意:这个学校的老师受到鼓励,将戏剧用作学习工具。

74. D【解析】accordingly意为―相应地,因此‖;sensitively意为―敏感地‖;imaginatively意为―想象上地‖;efficiently意为―有效率地‖。句意:首先我们需要找出他的设计是什么,然后采取相应行动。

75. B【解析】set on―着手,打定主意做‖;fit on―装上,穿上‖;dispose不与on 搭配;decide on―决定‖。句意:最初吉姆不知道自己大学毕业后干什么,但是现在他似乎决定成为计算机程序员了。dispose 处理,处置;安排。dispose of 解决;将(某物)处理掉;驳倒;将(某物)吃光喝完。

76. A【解析】blow one’s own trumpet为固定搭配,意思是―自吹自擂,自我标榜‖=blow one’s own horn。whistle意为―口哨‖;bugle意为―喇叭‖;flute意为―长笛‖,均不能与blow构成固定搭配。句意:被邀请谈自己的成就时,他拒绝自吹自擂,拒绝在会上发言。decline衰退,谢绝(邀请等),(在品格、价值上)降低;衰落。

77. C【解析】intensity意为―强度,强烈‖;gravity意为―重力,严重‖;extent 意为―范围,程度‖;amount用来指不可数名词的数量。这里句中的treatment 与后面的grew in intensity正好构成让步关系。句意:他尽管得到治疗,腿上的疼痛还是加剧了。78. B【解析】suspend意为―暂停,中止‖,是指正是让某事停下来,通常是短时间暂停;discontinue是―停下‖,强调的是结果,不涉及停多久的问题;cease 也是停下的意思,不涉及时间长短,故选B。句意:在高速公路修复好之前,往返于市中心和牛顿住宅区的巴士服务暂停。

79.【解析】A. principal意为―主要的‖;basic意为―基础的‖;initial意为―最初的‖;elementary意为―基本的‖。后三个词都没有体现出潮汐出现的主因是月亮这层含义,故选A。句意:月亮距离地球比太阳近得多,它是引起潮汐的主要原因。principal(adj. 最重要的;主要的)(n. 首长,负责人).

80.【解析】C. attendance: 出席, 出席的人数, 伺候, 照料;come (go) to sb.’s assistance给某人以帮助;come (go) to sb.’s rescue:进行援救, 营救某人,通常指搭救受到监禁、攻击或死亡威胁的人。safety: 安全, 保险。句意:在我打电话给泰德告诉钱包被偷了之后,他带着200美金的支票来帮我,为我付了房租。

53. A【解析】can 表示许可/建议,在口语中常用can,表示给与―许可‖通常用can/may而不用could/might。这里provided引导条件状语从句,意思等于if/on condition that。

54. A【解析】If only引导的虚拟语气,解释为―要是……该多好啊!‖与现在的事实相反的则if only后接过去式did,和过去事实相反的则接过去完成时had done。这里是说要是这个病人接受了不同的治疗方式(其实那个时候并没有接受),与过去事实相反用过去完成时。句意:如果那个病人不使用抗生素而是采用其他疗法,他现在可能还活着呢。

55. B【解析】be to do是固定用法. 由于start the experiment这个动作先于change her mind,所以用过去完成时be to have done表示在过去的事情对现在的影响。

56. D【解析】对过去事情的肯定推测用must have done,否定推测用couldn’t have done。

57. C【解析】not … so much … as与其说,不如说,固定用法。句意:与其说是语言还不如说是背景让这本书难以理解。

59. A【解析】发现难以理解这个动作先于‖说‖之前发生,故用过去完成时。

60. C【解析】had就是have的过去式了,没有had had to的说法,且but后面的句子是单纯叙述过去发生的事情,用一般过去式。

61. B【解析】than后面是省略了it,还原应该是..than it has been put in. than常见的考法有这两种:连词than 引导比较状语从句,有时省去部分谓语,保留了主语和助动词,此时助动词可以移到主语前,如:John drives much more carefully than does his father. (=than his father drives)。连词than 引导比较状语从句,常省去主语,保留谓语部分,这种结构多见于正式文体,如:Don’t eat more than is good for you.

62. B【解析】not more…than的意思是―与其说…倒不如说…‖,这里意思是: 人口过多对人类的威胁还不如对环境的破坏更为严重。A的意思是:人口过多跟环境破坏一样对人类构不成什么威胁。通过这道题,试比较如下两句句子:John is not better than Tom约翰不如汤姆好。(但是两人都不错)

John is no better than Tom约翰比汤姆好不了多少。(两个人都不怎么样)

63. D【解析】两个常见there用法:for there to be, of there being. (即有介词

78. 【解析】expanse很显然,space和land与题目不相符,先排除。只剩下expanse 和stretch了。expanse表示―宽阔的空间/区域,辽阔;广袤‖,stretch表示―一片地域,一个地段,(尤指肢体)伸展,拉长,通常指狭而长的区域‖,而判断依据主要看limitless(无垠的),形容"沙漠宽广",显然要用― limitless expanse ‖。

79. 【解析】感知,察觉;sense the uneasiness感受到不自在。

80. 【解析】smack one's lips是固定用法,意思是:(馋得)舐嘴唇; 垂涎三尺。

51. D【解析】however引导的让步状语从句,意思是无论(怎么样),从句需倒装,即However+adj/adv+主+谓. However dull he may be=Dull as he may be. although和as引导让步状语从句,指‖尽管‖,whatever用来引导名词从句,意思是:无论什么。句意:无论他多么地令人感到乏味,他还是一位非常成功的顶级行政人员。

52. B【解析】could表示能够,是一种能力。If only引导的虚拟语气,表示‖要是….该多好啊!‖句意:要是我能像你那样把吉他弹得那么好该多好啊!

53. D【解析】先行词the party作介词at的宾语,即I was the guest of honor at the party,关系代词指代the party。

54. A【解析】It is (high) time的意思是到了做…的时候了,从句中一般用过去时构成虚拟语气。

55. C【解析】考察定语从句的时态。定语从句中的―找到问题‖这一动作发生先于主句动词said,所以用had found构成过去完成时。

56. C【解析】so that引导目的状语从句,表示为了让每个人都有机会听到讲座。其他选项均不符合题意,ought to have done=should have done本应该做而实际未做,must have done表示对过去的肯定猜测。57. A【解析】本句中should表示惊讶语气,故不能省略。句意:你居然会认为在这个城市居住是很无聊的,这点让我很惊讶。

58. B【解析】enough修饰形容词副词时需要后置,且不能和as结构连用。

59. C【解析】考核虚拟语气的用法。It is imperative that sb. (should)+do/V, should 可以省略。句意:当务之急是征服应该吸引更多投资到造船业。

60. D【解析】There is no such (a) thing as…固定用法,意思是:It is impossible to …没有…e.g. There is no such a thing as free lunch.天下没有免费的午餐。

61. C【解析】that=so. 那么,如此。The weather today is not that cold as is reported.

62. D【解析】prove. statistics表示数字数据时谓语动词用复数。The statistics prove/show that,这里表示一种客观状态,没有明显时态标志,所以用一般时态。

63. C【解析】as much of a … as是固定结构,类似的结构还有more of a … than, less of a … than,如果是这些比较结构,则名词只能放在比较结构中,如It was as much of a success as I had hoped. He is more of a sportsman than his brother. We can let you have as many copies as you need. 所以A的正确形式应是more of a success than…,B只能将名词置于比较结构中间。

65. D【解析】考察反意疑问句。there be 的反意疑问句就用there来进行反问。

66. D【解析】discrimination歧视,show discrimination against sb.歧视某人distinction区别,差别;difference不同;separation分开。句意:对不同种族的人表现出歧视是一种冒犯行为。

67. B【解析】restoring使…恢复到以前面貌,通常和to连用;refresh使… 精神爽快;renovate更新,革新;renew更新。

68. D【解析】heels. on/at one’s heels紧跟在某人后面,固定搭配;句意:小偷逃跑了,当地的警察紧随其后追赶。fled逃走,逃掉(flee的过去式和过去分词);逃离,逃避。

69. A【解析】job security是商务英语中的词汇,意思是工作保障,职业安全感。

e.g. The workers agreed to forgo a pay increase for the sake of greater job security. 工人们为了工作更保险,同意放弃增加工资的要求。secure较safe更抽象,这里工作保障应属于抽象范畴,且secure的名词形式是security而非secureness。

70. C【解析】provide for准备,筹备……;cater for迎合,supply sth. to sb.为某人提供…;equip with用……装备,句意:现在许多人存钱是为了防老。

71. B【解析】reflect反映;reproduce复制,繁殖,再生产;imagine想象;imitate 模仿。句意:这篇文章的语调反映了当时作者的心态。

72. A【解析】moment时候,situation情况,opportunity机会,circumstance环境。句意:现在不是让我帮你的时候,我忙得连听你话的时间都没有。

73. D【解析】involve包含,涉及,使陷入……中;concern涉及到;offer提供不符合题意。句意:学生住宿管理人员的工作包括拜访房东。

74. B【解析】stands位于=lies in;rest停卧,安防;stay停留;seat坐下。根据句意:我们的家庭医生的诊所位于两条繁忙道路的交叉点,故选B。

75. C【解析】squeeze oneself through从……中挤过去;assemble集合,聚集;appear出现,gather聚集。句意:她太胖了只能勉强从门口挤过去。

76. A【解析】leaking漏;trickle滴流,细流;drip滴落;float漂浮,漂动。这里意思是维修正在漏水的房顶。只有leaking合适。

77. C【解析】prominent杰出的,突出的,显著的;excellent非常好的;conspicuous 显而易见的;noticeable易见的。句意:参加这次招待会的是当地的显赫人士。

78. B【解析】recover指身体,心情的恢复,康复,(经济)的恢复;regain恢复,复得;restore归还,修复(到原来的面貌);revive复苏,恢复。may imply recovery from a deathlike state通常指到了谷底然后复苏,振兴。题中提到fell sharply然后下午come back up。revive强调一个由谷底反弹的一个过程。故这里选recover 比较合适. 且在商务英语的环境中,recover的使用频率和范围都要比revive广。

79. D【解析】quick敏捷的,迅速的;rich丰富的,富裕的;productive 多产的;fertile 有创造力的,思想丰富的。由句意可知此处指大脑有创造力。

80. A【解析】inconsiderable少量的,a not inconsiderable amount of=a large amount of, inconsiderate不体谅的,考虑欠缺的;inaccurate不精确的;incomparable无与伦比的。句意:这对夫妇向这个基金会捐助了数目可观的一笔钱。

英语专业四级考试词汇语法真题及解析

2016年英语专业四级考试词汇语法真题 参考答案与解析 11. How can I concentrate if you _________ continually ______ me with silly questions? A. have… interrupted B. are… interrupted C. had… interrupting D. were… interrupting 选A。虽然我觉得更应该说you are continually interrupting me with silly questions。不过这里用现在完成时表示的是一个动作发生过成为过去经历,有可能多次发生,也就是打断一次、两次、三次等等不断重复到现在。 12. Among the four sentences below, Sentence ___ expresses the highest degree of possibility? A. It may take a long time to find a solution to the problem. B. It might take a long time to find a solution to the problem. C. It could take a long time to find a solution to the problem. D. It should take a long time to find a solution to the problem. 选D。四个里把握度最高的是should,其次是may,最后是might和could。 13. She is a better speaker than _____ in the class. A. any boy B. the other boys C. other any girl D. all the girls 选A。主语是she,女的,所以不能选B。C的正确说法是any other girl。 14. Nobody heard him sing, ______? A. did one B. did he C. didn’t they D. did they 选B。根据专四语法出题依据的书《新编英语语法教程》(章振邦)317页,nobody这种附加疑问句,书面语里用he。口语里偶见they。实际上,现代英语里为了避免有语言歧视(为什么只有he,没有she),很多人都避免只用he,而多改为they。 15. I can’t put up with ________. A. that friend of you B. that friend of yours C. the friend of you D. the friend of yours 选B。根据专四语法出题依据的书《新编英语语法教程》(章振邦)57-58页,这种双重属格结构所修饰的名词可带a, any, some等表示非确定特指的限定词,但通常不带定冠词。比如a daughter of Mrs. Green’s, any/some daughters of Mrs/ Green’s。 16. There has been an increasing number of _______ in primary schools in the past few years. A. man teacher B. men teacher C. man teachers D. men teachers 选D。合成名词复数,man/woman这种,两种都要变成复数,比如women drivers。

Dr Chris Idzikowski, ________ (direct) of the Edinburgh Sleep Centre, said the idea could help people get off to sleep. He ________ (explain) that "There's plenty of scientific evidence to show that sleep starts at the beginning of the night ________ body temperature starts to drop. The drop occurs partly because the blood vessels (血管) ________ the hands, face and feet open up and release heat." "A warm bed –approximately 20 to 24 degrees Celsuis –is ________ good way to start this process while a cold bed isn't. It helps people sleep well especially as it's taking much ________ (long) for them to warm up when they come in from the snow."

The five-minute free bed warming sessions will be tried out in London and Manchester ________ the end of next month. 【答案】 Dressed;before;director;explained;when;of;a;longer;his;at 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一款新发明的暖床器以及使用暖床器的好处。 (1)考查非谓语动词。句意:行走的电热毯将会穿着特制的连体睡衣被送去假日酒店在客人上床之前给客人进行暖床。动词dress与这句话的主语the walking electric blankets之间是被动关系,故填Dressed。 (2)考查状语从句。句意:行走的电热毯将会穿着特制的连体睡衣被送去假日酒店在客人上床之前给客人进行暖床。根据句意,客人睡觉之前需要暖床,故填before。 (3)考查名词。句意:爱丁堡睡眠中心的主任Chris Idzikowski博士说,这个办法能帮助人们更好地入睡。空格前是一个人名,两个逗号之间的部分是这个人名的同位语,所以应填一个表示人的名词。故填director。 (4)考查时态。句意:他解释,有充分科学依据显示,入夜人体体温开始下降的时候就是睡眠产生的时候。由上一句中said使用的是一般过去时可知,这句话也应使用一般过去时。故填explained。 (5)考查定语从句。句意:他解释,有充分科学依据显示,入夜人体体温开始下降的时候就是睡眠产生的时候。根据句意,这是一个定语从句,先行词为the beginning of the night,并且先行词在从句中做时间状语,故填关系词when。 (6)考查介词。句意:人体温度之所以会下降,部分原因在于,(这时)人的手部、脸部以及脚部的血管开始扩张,散发了热量。空前前后都是名词,所以空格处应填介词,the blood vessels与the hands之间属于所属关系,故填of。 (7)考查冠词。句意:温暖的床(温度大约在20到24摄氏度之间)有助于人们入睡而冰冷的床则会妨碍人们入睡。空格位于谓语动词后,空格后为一个可数单数名词短语,所以空格处应填不定冠词。“good”是以辅音音素开始的,故填a。
