第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节, 满分 35 分）
第一节：单项填空（共 15 小题，每小题 1分，满分 15 分）
21. We went right round to the west coast by __________ sea instead of driving across _________
continent.
A. the … the B. / … the C. the … / D. / … /
【高考考点】冠词。
【答案与解析】】B。by sea 是固定词组，用作状语，表示方式，意为“乘船”。类似词组
还有 by air (乘飞机)，by land (由陆路)。第二个空缺选 the，表“特指”。
22. --- Do you mind if I record your lecture?
--- ___________. Go ahead.
A. Never mind B. No way C. Not at all D. No, you’d better not
【高考考点】情景交际。
【答案与解析】】C。Never mind “没关系，不要紧”，常用于别人向你致歉时的答语。No
way“决不，不可能”拒绝对方。如：Do you want to help?--No way! (你想帮忙吗？决不！)。
Not at all“根本不” (意为“一点儿也不介意”)。No, you’d better not 不符合交际习惯。
23. --- Is Peter there?
--- _____________, please. I’ll see if I can find him for you.
A. Hold up B. Hold on C. Hold out D. Hold off
【高考考点】动词短语词义辨析。
【答案与解析】】B。hold up“阻止，举起”；hold on“稍等会儿，（打电话时）别挂断”；
hold out“伸出，提出”；hold off 本题考查的是打电话时的用语；hold off“推迟，战胜，克
服”。从语境看这是打电话时叫对方别挂。故选 B。
24. The Science Museum, ____________ we visited during a recent trip to Britain, is one of
London’s tourist attractions.
A. which B. what C. that D. where
【高考考点】which 引导的非限制性定语从句。
【答案与解析】A。本题考查的重点是非限制性定语从句。大家知道，非限制性定语从句的
先行词指物时，应用 which 而不用 that，定语从句谓语动词 visit 是及物动词，需跟宾语句子
才完整。故 A项正确。
25. --- I can’t repair these until tomorrow, I’m afraid.
--- That’s OK, there’s ____________.
A. no problem B. no wonder C. no doubt D. no hurry
【高考考点】交际用语。
【答案与解析】D。no hurry 意为“不急”。从问句可知，对方有点儿“着急”，所以答方
说，“没关系，不急”。“no+名词”这一结构是英语中常见搭配，no problem (没问题)，no
wonder (怪不得)，no doubt (无疑)，常见的还有 no way (没门儿)。
26. --- It shouldn’t take long to clear up after the party if we all volunteer to help.
--- That’s right. _____________.
A. Many hands make light work B. Something is better than nothing
C. The more, the merrier D. The sooner begin, the sooner done
【高考考点】英语谚语。
【答案与解析】A。Many hands make light work.是谚语，意为“人多好办事”在近几年的高
考英语江苏卷中，曾多次考查学生对谚语、习语的掌握情况。如 06 年第 28 小题考的是谚语
No pains, no gains. “不劳无获。”
27. It is often said that the joy of traveling is __________ in arriving at your destination
___________ in the journey itself.
A. / … but B. / … or C. not … or D. not … but
【高考考点】连词。
【答案与解析】D。本题考查的是固定搭配。not … but …是固定词组，意为“不是……而是
……。”
28. --- Why do you suggest we buy a new machine?
--- Because the old one has been damaged ___________.
A. beyond reach B. beyond repair C. beyond control D. beyond description
【高考考点】介词短语。
【答案与解析】B。beyond 是介词，意为“（程度）超出”，beyond repair 是“无法修理”。
题意是“因为旧机器已经烂得无法再修理了。”故选 B。
29. --- They are quiet, aren’t they?
--- Yes. They are accustomed ____________ at meals.
A. to talk B. to not talk C. to talking D. to not talking
【高考考点】非谓语动词。
【答案与解析】D。本题考查的是词组 be accused to (习惯于)的用法，其中 to 是介词，后跟
名词或动名词。
30. It is __________ to spend money on preventing illnesses by promoting healthy living rather
than spending on trying to make people ___________ after they are ill.
A. good … good B. well … better C. better … better D. better … good
【高考考点】形容词比较等级。
【答案与解析】C。本句为复合句，it 是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式短语 to spend
… 。rather than 是固定短语，意为“与其说……，不如说……”。其句意为：与其把钱花在
让人康复上，倒不如将钱花在通过提升健康的生活来预防疾病。
31. --- I’m still working on my project.
--- Oh, you’ll miss the deadline. Time is ____________.
A. running out B. going out C. giving out D. losing out
【高考考点】动词短语词义辨析。
【答案与解析】A 解析：run out 的意思是“（期限）到期”。此处用现在进行时表示：即
将到期。go out (灯)熄灭，give out 发出(热、味)，lose out 输给……(to sb)。
32. __________ you eat the correct foods ___________ be able to keep fit and stay healthy.
A. Only if; will you B. Only if; you will
C. Unless; will you D. Unless; you will
【高考考点】“only +状语从句”位于句首时引起的倒装结构。
【答案与解析】A。当only 放在句首，修饰状语从句、副词或介词短语时，主句的谓语要部
分前置，构成部分倒装。
33. --- I’m sure Andrew will win the first prize in the final.
--- I think so. He ___________ for it for months.
A. is preparing B. was preparing C. had been preparing D. has been preparing
【高考考点】考查动词时态。
【答案与解析】D。从上文可知“Andrew 将在决赛中拿第一”说明他还在准备，故用现在完
成进行时。句意是“他一直准备数月了。”故选 D。
34. To learn English well, we should find opportunities to hear English ___________ as much as we
can.
A. speak B. speaking C. spoken D. to speak
【高考考点】过去分词作宾补。
【答案与解析】C。句意是“为了学好英语，我们应尽可能地找机会说英语。” English 和
speak 之间是被动关系，故感官动词 hear 后跟过去分词作宾补。故选 C项。
35. --- I’m sorry. I ___________ at you the other day.
--- Forget it. I was a bit out of control myself.
A. shouldn’t shout B. shouldn’t have shouted
C. mustn’t shout D. mustn’t have shouted
【高考考点】考查情态动词 shouldn’t have done 的用法。
【答案与解析】B。前句中有明显的时间状语 the other day (几天前)，事情发生在过去。
句意是“对不起，前几天我不应该对你大嚷大叫。”所以要用“shouldn’t have done”。
第二节 完型填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1分，满分 20 分）
Evelyn Glennie was the first lady of solo percussion in Scotland. In an interview, she recalled
how she became a percussion soloist (打击乐器独奏演员) in spite of her disability.

grew up on a farm in northeast Scotland and began 37 piano lessons when I was eight. The older
I got, the more my passion ( 酷爱) for music grew. But I also began to gradually lose my 38 .
Doctors concluded that the nerve damage was the 39 and by age twelve, I was completely deaf.

perform, I 42 to hear music differently from others. I play in my stocking feet and can 43 the
pitch of a note (音调高低) by the vibrations (振动). I feel through my body and through my 44 .
My entire sound world exists by making use of almost every 45 that I have.
“I was 46 to be assessed as a musician, not as a deaf musician, and I applied to the famous
Royal Academy of Music in London. No other deaf student had 47 this before and some teachers

academy’s highest honours.
“After that, I established myself as the first full-time solo percussionist. I 51 and arranged a
lot of musical compositions since 52 had been written specially for solo percussionists.
“I have been a soloist for over ten years. 53 the doctor thought a was totally deaf, it didn’t
54 that my passion couldn’t be realized. I would encourage people not to allow themselves to be
55 by others. Follow your passion; follow your heart, they will lead you to to the place you want
to go.”
