2017年成人高等學校專升本招生全國統(tǒng)一考試

英語試題答案與解析

1．【答案】A

【解析】A項的讀音為e，B項的讀音為?，C項的讀音為? ，D項的讀

音為? ，故A項與其他三項不同。

2．【答案】C

【解析】A項的讀音為?，B項的讀音為?，C項的讀音為? ，D項的讀

音為? ，故C項與其他三項不同。

3．【答案】B

【解析】A項的讀音為?n，B項的讀音為??n，C項的讀音為? n，D項的

讀音為? n，故B項與其他三項不同。

4．【答案】D

【解析】A項的讀音為i，B項的讀音為i，C項的讀音為i，D項的

讀音為e? ，故D項與其他三項不同。

5．【答案】B

【解析】A項的讀音為z，B項的讀音為s，C項的讀音為z，D項的

讀音為z，故B項與其他三項不同。

6．【答案】D

【解析】句意：晚飯后，喬納森和喬離開了房子去散步。goforawalk

是固定用法，意為“出去走走，去散步”，與takeawalk同義。

7．【答案】D

【解析】句意：他指著那輛新轎車問道：“那輛車是誰的?你以前見

過嗎?”疑問代詞whose用來詢問物品的所有者。意為“誰的(東西)”。

why為什么；where哪里；who誰。

8．【答案】B

【解析】句意：我的父親叫我和湯姆幫他干活。單數(shù)人稱并列時，順

序為“第二人稱，第三人稱，第一人稱”；復數(shù)人稱并列時，順序為

“第一人稱，第二人稱，第三人稱”。此處為單數(shù)人稱并列作賓語，

故選Tomandme。

9．【答案】C

【解析】句意：如今，知識匱乏似乎的確是一件危險的事。由句首的

nowadays可以判斷，該句的時態(tài)為一般現(xiàn)在時，故排除B項。little

knowledge表示的是否定意義，是不可數(shù)名詞，故謂語動詞要用單數(shù)，

故排除A項和D項。does在這里是助動詞，表示強調。

10．【答案】A

【解析】句意：如果他們的營銷團隊取得成功，那么他們的利潤將增

加20％。if引導的條件狀語從句可以分為兩類：真實條件句和虛擬

條件句。當假設情況發(fā)生的可能性很大時，就是真實條件句；當假設

不大可能實現(xiàn)時，就是虛擬條件句。根據(jù)句意，本句所表述的是客觀

情況，所以為真實條件句。從句中使用的時態(tài)為一般現(xiàn)在時，故主句

應使用將來時，故選A。

11．【答案】B

【解析】句意：你最好帶上這些文件，以防會議中你會用到。inease

可引導目的狀語從句，意為“以防，以備”，sothat也可引導目的

狀語從句。意為“以便，為了”，所以incase符合題意。unless

除非；until直到。

12．【答案】D

【解析】句意：我以前沒有去過流行音樂節(jié)，邁克也沒有去過。t00

和als0表示“也”時用于肯定句和疑問句；neither用作副詞時意

為“兩者都不”，放在句首，表示前面否定的內容也適用于另一個人

或物，句子須采用部分倒裝；either作副詞時也可表示“也”，用

于否定句，一般位于句末。

13．【答案】A

【解析】句意：眾所周知，馬克·吐溫是一位偉大的美國作家。as

在該句中引導非限定性定語從句。在從句中作主語。

14．【答案】C

【解析】句意：約翰向書店老板投訴，說字典中缺少了好幾頁。missin9

意為“缺失的”，符合題意。lacking缺乏的；losing失敗的；dropping

掉落的。

15．【答案】C

【解析】旬意：直到比賽開始他才到達運動場。notuntil引導時間

狀語從句時主句要部分倒裝。從句中的時態(tài)為過去完成時，故主句中

的時態(tài)應為一般過去時，故選C。

16．【答案】C

【解析】句意：常看電影的人知道許多特效都是通過電腦制作出來的。

但他們往往不知道的是制作這些場景還需要投入大量的工作。分析句

子結構可知，空格所在從句在整個句子中充當主語，從句中缺少賓語，

且賓語指的是事而非人，故選C。

17．【答案】A

【解析】句意：總統(tǒng)將在開幕式上做正式講話。giveaspeech為固

定搭配，意為“發(fā)表講話，做演講”。debate辯論，爭論；discussion

討論；argument論點，爭論。

18．【答案】B

【解析】句意：當我遇到這些問題時，我頭腦一片空白，我甚至記不

起自己的生日。one’smindgoesblank是固定表達，意為“頭腦

一片空白”。faint模糊的；dark黑暗的：blind盲目的。

19．【答案】A

【解析】句意：如果他們愿意借給我們那筆我們需要的錢的話，我們

的一切問題都將迎刃而解。solveproblems為固定表達，意為“解

決問題”。caused引起；covered覆蓋；met遇到。

20．【答案】D

【解析】句意：這篇文章呼吁人們多關注文化沖突的問題。callsfor

意為“呼吁，提倡”，符合題意。caresfor關心，照顧；allowsfor

考慮到；appliesfor申請，請求。

21．【答案】C

【解析】此處表示“是否還有其他因素在起作用”，atwork意為“(因

素)在起作用”，符合題意。

22．【答案】D

【解析】空格后that引導的同位語從句意為“一些人似乎被賦予了

特殊的創(chuàng)造力”，這是一個客觀事實，fact意為“事實”，符合題

意。issue發(fā)行，議題；problem問題；reason原因。

23．【答案】C

【解析】由前一句中的轉折連詞while可知，該句與上句應是轉折關

系，上句說“雖然一些人似乎被賦予了特殊的創(chuàng)造力”，所以此處應

表示“但是研究表明任何人都能增加他們想出新點子的機會”，

increase意為“增加”，符合題意。miss錯過；reduce減少；lose

失去。

24．【答案】B

【解析】前文說“研究表明任何人都能增加他們想出新點子的機會“，

此處應指增加這種機會應具備的條件，故應選if，引導條件狀語從

句。

25．【答案】A

【解析】此處表示增加想出新點子的機會的條件，所以“如果在創(chuàng)造

的過程中全身心投入，不斷嘗試的話”，就會增加想出新點子的機會。

creation意為“創(chuàng)造”，符合題意。practice實踐：production生

產；achievement成就。

26．【答案】A

【解析】此處意為“探索就是99％的汗水加1％的靈感”。引號中的

內容位于介詞about之后，故本空應填be動詞的非謂語形式，故選

A。

27．【答案】D

【解析】根據(jù)空格后的greatcreativebreak—throughs、intense

periodsofstruggle可知。此處表示的觀點與前文一致，即研究一

次又一次證明創(chuàng)造力離不開艱苦奮斗。timeandagain意為“屢次，

再三”，符合題意。soonerorlater'遲早；somedayorother總

有一天；everynowandthen不時地，常常。

28．【答案】B

【應試指導l此處表示“偉大的創(chuàng)造性突破往往在長期的艱苦奮斗后
