【解析】

本文介绍了近几年非洲国家在现代科技方面取得了进步和发展,慢慢地跟上了现代社会的发展步伐。

1考查代词。指示代词it通常指代上文出现的同一事物,本句中it指代本句中提及的Africa。

2考查名词。本句中有并列连词and连接三个名词,故横线上必须使用名词形式achievement。句意:非洲缺少技术、电和其他现代社会的成就。

3考查形容词。在英语中通常使用形容词做定语修饰名词,本句横线后是名词country,说明横线应该使用形容词形式industrial。

4考查分词。本句中现在分词growing作为定语修饰名词place,强调正在发生的动作。句意:现在非洲是世界上发展最快的地方。

5考查时态。本句中的时间状语so far“到目前为止,该结构通常和现在完成时连用。句意:到目前为止,政府、商业界和个人都已经意识到要快速发展,必须要有现代技术。

6考查形容词比较级。前半句告诉我们10年前在非洲SIM卡要100美元,而现在只要2美元;价格下降很多,手机也变得更便宜了。句中的much用来加强语气,修饰比较级修饰cheaper。

7考查非谓语动词。动词equip与本句主语people构成被动关系,所以使用过去分词equipped做状语。构成短语be equipped with配备有;配备着这些现代的设备,现在的非洲人可以非常容易地连接上网络。

8考查固定搭配。短语have access to…可以使用….;可以进入….;句意:现在很多尼日利亚人都可以上网。

9考查宾语从句。本句中what引导宾语从句并在句中与系动词were构成系表结构。句意:直到最近这个国家的农民才知道某个时间他们的产品的价格是多少。

10考查固定短语。介词短语at a certain time在某个时间。句意:直到最近这个国家的农民才知道某个时间他们的产品的价格是多少。

本文小题3和小题6均考查了形容词用法。形容词副词主要考查的知识点:形容词作定语,形容词和副词的比较等级,词义比较等。在平时要重点复习:①形容词和副词均属修饰性词类,但因被修饰的内容有所不同而具备不同的用法,高考非常注重对此进行考查,在完形填空和语法填空中出现过大量此类试题。(形容词与系动词连用及修饰名词;修饰行为动词、形容词、副词、过去分词及整个句中用副词)②两个事物进行比较应用比较级,三个或三个以上事物进行比较应用最高级。③形容词和副词在特定的语境中词义的比较。④比较级的程度修饰语(much,verymuch,alot,agreatdeal,far,byfar,even,still,abit,alittle,rather,any,数词,倍数,分数,百分数等)。⑤易混副词的辨析。如:specially/especially/particularly等。

例:Whatdoyouthinkofthefilmwesawlastnight?

—Ifeel_______thatthefilmiswellworthseeingonceagain?

A.strong B.stronglyC.hardlyD.hard

解析:B。that引导一个宾语从句,由此可以判断feel在此不是一个系动词,而是一个实义动词。Ifeelstronglythat...“我坚信。故答案为B。挖掉代词,句子的结构受到破坏,句子间出现不连贯。

【题目】Interviewing is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease as when you try it for the first time, you’ll probably never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he or she maybe too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical. The rest is instinct(本能直觉), which can all be learned with experience.

The basic tools for an interview are paper and two or three well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook or paper out of sight until you need it. There’s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad(便签纸). Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you’re dealing with, getting him or her to trust you.

Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it’s an actor, know what plays he has been in. You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.

Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions and have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. The fear is almost 100 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him.

Most men and women lead lives that are uninteresting, and they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.

This doesn’t certainly mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, and they will get used to the process awkwardly(笨拙地), perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it—proof that you aren’t forcing your victim to do something he doesn’t really want to.

1The word “reveal” could best be replaced by ________.

A. ask B. question

C. give D. look

2According to the passage, during an interview notebooks or paper should ________.

A. never be used B. be used only when necessary

C. be kept at home D. be given to the interviewer

3It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that most men and women ________.

A. are afraid to meet interviewers B. hate being interviewed

C. like being interviewed D. fear to speak to outsiders

4According to the passage, if a person being interviewed is too uneasy to give you anything useful, what should you do?

A. Arrange another interview. B. Give him or her a bad score.

C. Wait until he or she calms down. D. Try to make him or her trust you
