人教版高二英语选修6Unit 4期末检测试题答案
Ⅰ.1.to to 2.about 3.to in to of like 4.of5.of to 6.in up to 7.in 8.towards 9.On10.On to about in
Ⅱ.1.毫无疑问,地球是在变暖,而且全球转暖是人为的,而不是随意的自然现象。 (1)Thereisnodoubtthatthepriceofwheatwillgoup. (2)ItwasakeythatIfoundinhispocket.
2.所有的科学家赞同这种观点:人们为了生产能量而燃烧化石燃料(如煤、天然气和石油等),从而引起了地球温度的升高。 (1)Wedon’tsubscribetotheviewthatwehavefailed. (2)thathewonascholarship
3.如果没有这种‘温室效应’,地球的温度将比现在的温度还要低33摄氏度左右。 (1)Withoutelectricity,lifewouldbequitedifferenttoday. (2)Withoutyourhelp,Iwouldn’thavesucceededanyway.
4.即使我们开始减少二氧化碳和其他温室气体的含量,在未来的几十年或几个世纪内,气候仍会持续转暖。
(1)Evenif (Iam) invited (2)eveniftheweatherisbad
Ⅲ.1.D [句意为:温室里面的空气是暖和的,因为玻璃能使来自阳光的热量留住并阻止它流失。]
2.A [在表示时间、地点、条件等的状语从句中,如果主句的主语和从句主语一致,且从句谓语含有动词be时,可省略从句的主语和be动词。因compare与主语之间是被动关系,故此处的完整形式为:when it is compared to other changes。]
3.C [句意为:全球转暖是人为的,而不是随意的自然现象。rather than而不是,符合题意。more than多于,超过;other than除了;except for除了(用于肯定主体,否定局部)。]
4.D [考查强调句型,it is/was...that/who...,当强调人时,可用that或who。此处强调主语a scientist called Charles Keeling。]
5.D [第一空用subscribe to表示“同意,赞成”;第二空用不定式表目的。apply to申请,应用于;correspond to符合,与……一致;cater to满足于;迎合。]
6.C [the most important one of...是一个非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词“greenhouse” gases。因先行词是物,故排除B项;that和these不能用于引导非限制性定语从句。]
7.B [句意为:这意味着更多的热能将被困在大气层中,从而引起了全球气温上升。go up上升,增长,符合题意。grow up成长,长大;build up增进;加强;bring up养育,抚养。]
8.A [句意为:正是由于越来越多的燃烧化石燃料导致了二氧化碳的增加。result in导致,符合题意。lead to导致;result from由……引起,因……而产生;as a result因此,结果,在句中作状语。]
9.B [be opposed to反对,符合题意。object to反对;be supposed to do sth.应该做某事;be determined to do sth.决心做某事。]
10.A [even if即使,纵然,符合题意。as if好像;now that既然;as long as只要。]
Ⅳ.1.B [主旨大意题,综观全文可以看出,文章开篇点题,在第一段点明了文章的主题:泰国首都曼谷(Bangkok)为了提高人们对全球变暖的认识在周三关灯15分钟。然后下文对这一活动的情况作了详细的介绍,故选B项。这里要注意题目和原文中同义词的替代问题:raise awareness=remind...of。]
2.D [计算题。由倒数第三段的“...more than 26 million tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year,or nearly 20 percent of Thailand’s total CO2 emissions.”可以计算出泰国整个二氧化碳的排放量是130 million tons。]
3.C [推理判断题。由文章第三段中描述的“...with some malls and hotels ignoring the request...”可知,并不是所有的人都赞成这次活动。]
4.A [细节判断题。用排除法。由第一段可以判断C项正确;由倒数第二段可以判断D项正确;由倒数第四段可以判断B项正确。文章没有提到不关灯的市民要被罚款(be fined)。]
