(必修一·Unit 3)
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．John is very ________—if he promises to do something he'll do it. A．independent B．confident C．reliable D．flexible
答案与解析：C John 是可以信赖的——如果他答应做某事，他一定会做的。根据后句：如果他答应做某事，就会去做。据此可得出他是个可信赖的人。故选C。
2．________，I have to put it away and focus my attention on study this week. A．However the story is amusing B．No matter amusing the story is C．However amusing the story is
D．No matter how the story is amusing
答案与解析：C 无论这个故事多么有趣，这周我必须要把它放起来专心学习了。这是让步状语从句，amusing是形容词，故用however amusing和no matter how amusing 皆可，状语从句用陈述语序，故选C项。
3．He is rather difficult to make friends with，but the friendship of his，________，is more true than any others'.
A．once gained B．when to gain C．as gained D．while gaining
答案与解析：A 句意：他这个人很难与他交朋友，但是与他的友谊一旦建立，比其他任何人的都真诚。由于friendship和gain之间为动宾关系，故用过去分词。根据题意，选择连词once。
4．Four policemen rode past on their motorbikes，then came the television broadcasting car，and ________ the marathon runners.
A．finally B．in the end C．at last D．last
答案与解析：A finally在列举事物或论点时，引出最后的一项内容，符合题意。in the end“终于”，用于预测未来；at last “最后，终于”，侧重于时间；last 指顺序是最后的。
5．Jane tried to keep up a calm appearance，but her trembling voice ________. A．gave her away B．gave her out C．gave her in D．gave her up 答案与解析：A 此题考查动词短语辨析。give away“送掉，分发；放弃；泄露，出卖”；give out “分发；发出(气味、热等)；发表；用尽，精疲力竭”；give in“投降，屈服；让步；交上”；give up “放弃(念头、希望等)；停止”。句意：Jane试图保持平静，但是她发颤的声音给她漏了馅。

11．When asked to explain ________ he did to make his students so fascinated with his lessons，the teacher paused and thought deeply.
A．what it was that B．that what it was C．what was it that D．that what was it
答案与解析：A 该题考查强调句的用法。由于强调句作explain的宾语，应使用陈述语序，故排除C、D两项；对比A、B两项可以发现这是强调句的特殊疑问句式，应把特殊疑问词置于句首，故排除B项。
12．The lady insisted that the young man ________ her wallet and insisted on ________ to the police station at once.
A．has stolen; be sent
B．should steal; sending him C．had stolen; his being sent D．should steal; sending
答案与解析：C insist作“认为；坚持说”讲时，表示坚持一种说法、看法或事实，宾语从句用陈述语气，steal的动作发生在insisted之前，故第一个空用过去完成时；insist on后接名词或动名词作宾语，且the young man与send构成动宾关系，故C项正确。
13．—I ________ him to take part in the English Oral Contest. —I have been believing only you can make it. A．determined B．persuaded C．talked D．insisted
答案与解析：B persuade sb. to do sth.“成功说服某人去做某事”与题意相符。

答案与解析：C 按时间表拟定或安排好将要发生的事情用一般现在时代替一般将来时，排除B、D两项；be going to结构常用于指当前的已计划好或思考过的意图或打算，故C项正确。
