25. The lawyer seldom wears anything other than a suit __________the season.

A. whatever

B. wherever

C. whenever

D. however

【标准答案】A。

【试题解析】whatever 引导让步状语从句，其后省略了it is。题意是“无论什么季节，律师除了穿套装外，很少穿其他衣服”。

26. I like getting up very early in summer. The morning air is so good _________.

A. to be breathed

B. to breathe

C. breathing

D. being breathed

【标准答案】B。

【试题解析】breathe和air之间虽然是动宾关系，但good后省略了for me,其逻辑主语是I，故用动词不定式的主动形式。

【高考考点】非谓语动词的用法。动词不定式做状语。

【易错提醒】A选项易被误选，认为breathe和air之间虽然是动宾关系，就用动词不定式的被动形式。

homework to do every day. He is to blame for the spoiled boy. 这些句子中的不定式都是用的主动形式。

27. —Have you known Dr. Jackson for a long time?

—Yes, since she________ the Chinese Society.

28. You are driving too fast. Can you drive_________?

far, much等，同时还要注意它们的位置关系。

29. The wet weather will continue tomorrow when a cold front ______ to arrive.

A. is expected

B. is expecting

C. expects

D. will be expected

【标准答案】A。

【试题解析】a cold front（冷锋）和expect之间是被动关系，主句是一般将来时，故when 引导的时间状语从句应该用一般现在时的被动语态表示将来要被发生的动作。

【高考考点】动词时态

30. —Which of the two computer games did you prefer?

—Actually I didn’t like ______.

A. both of them

B. either of them

C. none of them

D. neither of them

【标准答案】B。

【试题解析】题意是“这两个网络游戏你喜欢哪一个？说实话我两个都不喜欢。”not和both 表示部分否定。none指三个以上的否定。neither两个都不，前面有don’t ，就不能再和neither 搭配使用了。要注意区别both, all, neither, either, none的基本用法，同时要注意部分否定和全否定的表达。如：Both of his sons are in the army. 其全否定形式为：Neither of his sons is in the army. All of us went to the cinema yesterday. 其完全否定形式是：None of us went to the cinema.

【试题解析】as if好像，表示方式；as long as 只要；now that既然，表示原因；in order that 为了，表示目的。题意是“你想好去哪儿度暑假呢？只要有，大海和海滩，去哪儿我都没意见。”除了as long as引导条件状语从句外，还应掌握if，unless，when, while等也可以引导条件状语从句。

【高考考点】as long as 引导的条件状语从句。

32. The weather was ______ cold that I didn’t like to leave my room.

A. really

B. such

C. too

D. so

【标准答案】D。

【试题解析】题意是“天气太冷了我不想离开我的房间。”so …that…(如此……以致……)引导结果状语从句。

【高考考点】so…that..引导结果状语从句。

【备考提示】要注意以下几种句型之间的关系：He is such a little boy that he can’t take care of himself.相当于He is so little a boy that he can’t take care of himself.也可以说：He is too young to take care of himself.或He is so young that he can’t take care of himself.

33. The English spoken in the United States is only slightly different from ______ spoken in England.

A. which

B. what

C. that

D. the one

【标准答案】C。

【试题解析】that用来指代前面的名词The English,以避免重复。题意是“美国英语现和英国英语只有很微小的差别了。”在英语中，that还常可以用来指代人口、天气、金钱等。如：The weather here is hotter than that in the north of the country.

【高考考点】代词that的用法。

【备考提示】面对这种句式结构较复杂的句子，首先要抓主干。如果spoken前有is，则B 项也成立。

34. After studying in a medical college for five years, Jane ______ her job as a doctor in the countryside.

A. Never mind

B. Certainly not

C. Not at all

D. Don’t mention it

【高考考点】情景交际用语。考查别人致歉时如何安慰对方。
