A．a(chǎn)ffected B．a(chǎn)ffecting
C．to affect
D．having affecting
答案：B 考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)句子語境可知，本題中affect帶有賓語three US states，因此要用affect的主動形式，同時不定式表意料之外的結(jié)果，與句子的語境不相符；句子中充當結(jié)果狀語的只能是現(xiàn)在分詞的一般式，而不能用完成式，故正確答案為B。

答案：B 考查動詞短語辨析。句意：今年年初開始汽車的銷售量開始下滑，經(jīng)銷商希望生意能在下半年好轉(zhuǎn)。pick up在句中意為“恢復，好轉(zhuǎn)”；take over 接管，接收；come out出版，出現(xiàn)；stand out突出，顯眼。
7．I had been so ________in my work that I forgot to buy a birthday gift for my daughter.
A．occupied
B．devoted
C．a(chǎn)ccompanied
D．buried
答案：D 考查動詞短語搭配。句意：我一直忙于工作結(jié)果都忘記了給女兒買生日禮物。be occupied with“忙于某事”；devote要構(gòu)成be devoted to，意為“專心于，致力于”；accompany表示“陪伴”，不符合句意；bury用于bury oneself in或be buried in表示“埋頭于，專心于”。

答案：C strike作動詞意為“打動，使觸動”；beat“毆打，擊敗”；hit表示“有目的的打”；knock“用力撞擊”。

________experience it is very good.
A．a(chǎn)n；an
B．the；the
C．a(chǎn)n；/
D．/；an
答案：C 考查冠詞用法。句意：你必須嘗一下我們家里制作的葡萄酒，那將是一次不同尋常的體驗。從我的經(jīng)驗可知，這酒非常好。experience表示“經(jīng)歷，體驗”是可數(shù)名詞，故第一個空中要加不定冠詞；第二空表示“經(jīng)驗”，為不可數(shù)名詞，其前不加冠詞。
12．Similar experiments ________ in some European countries by the time we began to work on the project in the 1990s.
A．have been carried out
B．is being carried out

13．He went to America in 1980，________，three years later，he earned his doctor's degree.
A．when
B．that
C．which
D．where
答案：D 考查定語從句。句意：他1980年去了美國，三年后，他在那里獲得了博士學位。句中where引導的是非限制性定語從句，修飾主句中的先行詞America。而在本句中，定語從句的內(nèi)容由插入的時間狀語進行了分隔，是一個典型的分隔句。

Ⅴ.閱讀表達
There was once a man called Mr. Flowers, and Flowers were his only joy in life. He spent all his free time in his four glass houses and grow flowers of every color, with long and difficult names, for competitions. He tried to grow a rose of a new color to win the silver cup for the Rose of the Year.
Mr. Flowers' glass－h(huán)ouses were very near to a middle school. Boys of around thirteen years old were often tempted(引誘) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr. Flowers' glass－h(huán)ouses. So Mr. Flowers did his best to be in or near his glass－h(huán)ouses at the beginning and end of the school day.
