当名词或代词前有序数词或最高级修饰时，则常用动词不定式来充当其后置定语，且elect与blackwoman之间为被动关系，故填tobeelected。7．Hecouldn'texpresshimselfcorrectly________meansofwords.答案：by bymeansof...“借助于；用……；通过……方法”。8．She________(slip)outofthehousebeforetheotherswereawake.答案：slipped 句意：她趁别人还没醒，溜出了房子。分析句子结构可知该空为句子的谓语动词，由从句中动词时态were可知，应用一般过去时。9．________(hire)acar,youmustproduceapassportandacurrentdrivinglicense.答案：Tohire 句意：若想租车，你需要出示护照及当前驾照。此处用动词不定式作目的状语。10．Bythetimesheknewthenews,John________(fly)toAmerica.答案：hadflown 由Bythetime引导的从句的时态为一般过去时可知，主句应用过去完成时，故应填hadflown。三、完形填空。阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。SixyearoldMatthewParkerwasinneedofakidney(肾)transplant，andhisfamilylookedalloverthecountryforasuitabledonor.Upto80peoplesignedup9\nto__1__alivingorgantothefirstgrader.Coincidentally，thepersonchosentodonateakidneytoMatthewwashis__2__，LindesyPainter.Matthewhadbeenonthetransplantmachinefora__3__timeanddevelopedantibodies(抗体)tomostkidneys，soitwas__4__tofindamatchforhim.Thedoctorhad__5__thefamilytobe“realistic”andusedtheterm“needleinahaystack”severaltimes.When__6__wereaskedtobetested，Painterwasthefirstonetosignup.__7__theteacherlearnedtheresults，shehadtogetseveral__8__done.Shewas__9__whenshegotacallbacksayingshewasa“__10__match”．Painterdidn'tmakethe__11__lightly.SheknewthatMatthewneedsakidney，andshehadpity__12__anyonegoingthroughthis.Itwasespeciallydifficultforherto__13__thecondition__14__oneofhertwosons.“Iwatchmyhealthy，__15__，loud，wildchildrenrunningaround，”shesaid.“Matthewdeservesto__16__anormal，healthy，activelifelikemyboys.”Matthewwassoexcitedto__17__thathisteacherwouldbedonatingakidneytohimthathehuggedher.Hismotherwas__18__gratefultoLindseyPainter，sayingherson'sdonorwasa“selfless”and“givingperson”for__19__herson.The__20__forthekidneydonationtookplaceinthefollowingmonth.Matthew'smothersaid，“Myson'snewkidneymeansaspecialbondbetweenstudentandteacherthatgoesfarbeyondtheclassroom.”1．A.giveupB．giveoffC．giveinD．givedown2．A.motherB．deskmateC．friendD．teacher3．A.longB．shortC．limitedD．good4．A.easyB．difficultC．convenientD．quick5．A.accusedB．stoppedC．warnedD．blamed6．A.studentsB．doctorsC．nursesD．volunteers7．A.AfterB．BeforeC．WhenD．Until9\n8．A.testsB．preparationsC．lessonsD．worries9．A.frightenedB．pleasedC．astonishedD．annoyed10．A.eagerB．rareC．commonD．perfect11．A.progressB．practiceC．mistakeD．decision12．A.forB．onC．toD．in13．A.imagineB．pretendC．supportD．waste14．A.threateningB．occurringC．affectingD．informing15．A.passiveB．activeC．tiringD．boring16．A.sufferB．surviveC．bearD．live17．A.feelB．learnC．wonderD．suppose18．A.deeplyB．crazilyC．noisilyD．quietly19．A.sharingB．beatingC．savingD．discovering20．A.operationsB．packagesC．storiesD．struggles【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。六岁的MatthewParker需要合适的肾源做肾移植手术。巧合的是，在这些愿意捐肾的志愿者当中，MatthewParker的老师是最佳人选。学生和老师被这个肾脏紧密联系在一起。1．A
