2、om一般不省略。22. Energy drinks are not allowed _ in Australia but brought in from New Zealand. A. to makeB. to be madeC. to have been madeD. to be making【解析】选B。此处考查allow sb. to do sth. 的用法。句中的make和Energy drinks之间为动宾关系，所以用不定式的被动语态。23. The _after the earthquake is horrible. A. sightB. sceneC. viewD. look【解
3、析】选B。考查名词词义辨析。sight视力，风景; scene风景，风光，布景，指局部的风景、景色展现在人眼前的景象；view视野，视域，常指在远处或高处以人的角度看到的景色；look看。24. In crowded streets, for the safety of people, it is_to drive faster than 20 mph. A. forbidden B. persuaded C. required D. demanded【解析】选A。考查动词词义辨析。forbid禁止; persuade劝说，说服; require要求; demand要求，需要。句意为：在拥挤路
4、段，为了人们的安全，汽车限速20 mph。故只有A语气最强，符合语境。25. Are you finishing your task? _. We need no less than three hours more. A. Far from itB. ExactlyC. Not a littleD. No wonder【解析】选A。考查日常交际用语。根据答语：We need no less than three hours more. 可知，工作还没有做完，还需要不短的时间。far from it还早呢; exactly确切地; not a little很多；no wonder难怪。26.
5、The language _an Anglo-Saxon base plus words from the languages of Denmark and Norway. A. is made upB. makes upC. is consisted ofD. consists of【解析】选D。考查词组辨析及词的用法。consist of由组成，无被动语态；make up组成，若表达“由组成”常用be made up of结构中。 27. I really appreciate _to relax with me on this nice island. A. you to have ha
6、d timeB. you having timeC. to have timeD. yours having time【解析】选B。考查词的用法。appreciate后只能用动名词，且动名词的复合结构是名词所有格或形容词性物主代词加动名词构成，作宾语时也可用代词宾格形式，故选B。28. Her driver_for the accident had not been driving carefully. A. blamedB. being blamedC. to be blamedD. blaming【解析】选A。考查非谓语动词形式。blame与driver之间是动宾关系，故用非谓语动词的被动
7、形式。being blamed表示动作正在进行，to be blamed表示动作还未发生。此处用过去分词作定语表被动和完成。29. Music is a universal language, which makes it possible for Jay Chou to be popular in America _he doesnt speak English. A. as ifB. even thoughC. becauseD. if【解析】选B。考查连词用法。句意：音乐是一种全球性的语言，这使得周杰伦在美国也很受欢迎成为了可能，尽管他不说英语。even though=(even if)
8、“即使，尽管”, 在此引导让步状语从句。30. Lei Feng street, a newly built street in the city, was named_Comrade Lei Feng. A. by means ofB. instead ofC. in favor ofD. in memory of【解析】选D。考查词组辨析。句意：雷锋街，在这座城市里新建的一条街，是为了纪念雷锋同志而建的。by means of通过手段；instead of代替，而不是；in favor of赞同；in memory of为了纪念。31. The spokesman _that the pr
9、esident would visit China next week, which cleaned up all doubts. A. concluded B. advised C. demanded D. confirmed【解析】选D。考查动词词义辨析。confirm确认; conclude结束; advise建议; demand要求。句意：新闻发言人确认了总统将于下周访问中国，这消除了一切怀疑。故只有D项符合题意。32. She _to beat the world record but failed at last. A. succeeded B. attempted C. advi
10、sed D. offered【解析】选B。succeed后不接不定式作宾语。“成功地做某事”应为succeed in doing sth. ; advise doing sth. 建议做某事; offer to do sth. 主动帮助做某事; attempt to do sth. 试图做某事，表示尽力去做，但不一定成功。根据句意，她尽力去打破世界纪录，但没有成功。故B项正确。【举一反三】It is impossible to_to flee from every danger and some risks must be taken. A. succeed B. attempt C. adv
11、ise D. manage【解析】选B。考查动词用法。attempt to do试图做某事；succeed in doing成功地做某事；advise doing建议做某事；manage to do成功地做某事。33. I regret_that Im too busy_in the talk. A. to say; to participateB. saying; participatingC. to say; participatingD. saying; to participate【解析】选C。考查非谓语动词。regret to say很遗憾地说；be busy doing忙于做某事。
12、有些动词或词组既可以跟动名词作宾语，也可以跟不定式作宾语，但意义上有区别，要特别注意34. Every possible means_to prevent water pollution, but we still have not enough clean water. A. has been usedB. are usedC. were usedD. have been used【解析】选A。考查时态和主谓一致。means前有every修饰，谓语动词只能用单数，且根据语境we still have not enough clean water可知到现在为止我们已经使用了每一种可能的方法，故
13、选A。35. He was so nervous during the test. No_he didnt pass the exam. A. way B. surprise C. wonder D. problem【解析】选C。考查名词词义辨析。句意：在考试中他非常紧张，难怪他没有通过考试。no way没门；no wonder难怪；no problem没问题。 . 完形填空（共20小题; 每小题1分, 满分20分） Who won the first gold medal in the 2009 National Games?
