Unit 6 Going west
典题欣赏
1．The last person _____is my old friend，Rose．
A．left B．to leave C．leaving D．being left
【题解】选B。本题要选的是一个后置定语，序数词或最高级被一动词修饰时，该动词通常用不定式。因此选B。若选left，则造成整个句子结构错误；C项是现在分词，只能作前置定语；leave为不及物动词，无被动式，故D项错误。
2．The day the child had looked forward to ____at last．
A．coming B．comes C．come D．came
【题解】选D。本题很容易误选A。学生往往只记住look forward to后接动词-ing形式，而忽略了从整个句子的结构上来考虑。本题中look forward to的宾语是先行词The day，在定语从句中省略了关系代词that，需要填入的是主句的谓语动词。由于定语从句中用了过去完成时，主句中应用一般过去时，而不用一般现在时，故选D。
3．I really don’t know _____kept the secret papers．
A．where was it B．it was where that
C．where it was that D．where was it that
【题解】选C。本题是一个强调句作know的宾语从句的结构。由于被强调的成分是疑问副词where，故在宾语从句中应采用“疑问词＋陈述句”的语序，选项A、B、D均是语序错误；且A项缺少that，只有C项符合语法规则。
4．They all went to the football game，____the rest of the work till the next day．
A．left B．leaving C．to leave D．after leaving
【题解】选B。本题是现在分词短语作状语，表示主语的另一个动作，即在去看足球赛的同时，把余下的工作留到第二天去做，A项的left如理解为一个过去式，则需加并列连词，C项的to leave是一个不定式，通常作目的状语，用在此处不合题意。D项中after多余，故选B。
5．The girl seldom，if____，turned to her elder brother for protection．
A．never B．ever C．then D．always
【题解】选B。even用在此处是一个副词，意为“任何时候”，用在疑问句、否定句或条件状语从句中。如：He is seldom, if ever, absent from school.（他简直从不缺课。）本题亦是这种用法，句意为“那个女孩几乎从不向她的哥哥寻求保护”。never与前面的seldom相重复；then和always一般用于肯定句中。
6．It was freezing cold．I put on my overcoat，but it didn't seem to_____.
A．help B．heat C．make D．warm
【题解】选A。由seem to可知后面应是动词原形，故D项可先予以排除。然后根据help, heat, make三个动词的意思来确定答案。根据题意，应选help为妥，因为heat意为“加热”，大衣只能保暖，不能加热。make是使役动词，必须接宾语及宾补才能使句子完整，故这两个词无论在句意还是结构上都不合题意。help在这里作“起作用”解。
7．She didn't agree ____in her lake the other day．
A．him to fish B．his fishing
C．to him to fish D．to his fishing
【题解】选D。动词agree后通常接介词with, to或on。with后一般接sb.；to后接sth.，但不能接不定式作宾补，故可排除A、C两项。本题选项中的her fishing相当于sth.，故用to。所以，D为正确选项。
8．“Did you quarrel with the manager?” “Yes，but ____that．”
A．I'd rather not do B．I'd rather not have done
C．I'd like not to do D．I'd like not to have done
【题解】选B。根据对话情景和but这一转折连词，可知说话人在表示自责或后悔，由此考虑would rather选项，排除would like选项。当对过去行为表示自责或后悔时，would rather后面的动词应用have done形式，由此弃A选B。表达这一意思时，would rather后面的宾语从句中的谓语动词应用过去完成时，因此这一句也可以说成I'd rather I hadn't done that.
9．As a writer，he succeeded in calling ____to many of the terrible wrongs that existed at that time．
A．interest B．notice C．attention D．mind
【题解】选C。本题的意思是“作为一个作家，他成功地唤起了人们对当时存在的很多冤屈的注意”。引起人们的注意，应该用attention; interest意为“兴趣”，其后应跟介词in；notice与mind的意思都离题甚远。
10．Has she ever asked him the reason ____may explain his coming late?
A．that B．for which C．why D．for which
【题解】选A。通常修饰reason的定语从句都用why引导，并且why在定语从句中作原因状语，但本题中定语从句的关系代词要作从句的主语，why是关系副词，不能作主语，故应该用that。
语法指南
定 语
定语是用来修饰名词或代词的成分，能用作定语的有：形容词、副词、数词、代词、介词短语、分词、动名词、不定式、从句等。定语可分为前置定语和后置定语，单词作定语时，一般放在被修饰的名词或代词之前；短语或从句作定语时，通常放在被修饰的名词或代词之后，但如果被修饰的成分是不定代词时，则定语放在这类词之后。

Is there anything wrong with your radio？你的收音机有毛病吗？

Ⅳ．阅读理解
A
He has hued through countless dangers but time may be running out for the Palestinian leader， Yasser Arafat．
On September 11，Israel announced its decision to remove him，following several Palestinian suicide bomb（自杀性炸弹）attacks on Israel. "He has done nothing to stop the terrorist groups．”
But the decision has angered many other countries．China said that Arafat is the true leader，elected by the Palestinian people，and removing him would harm the peace in the Middle East. This view is shared by other governments．
Arafat himself said: "They can kill me，but never get me out of my country．”He has spent most of his life in danger as the chief target of Israel．But，just like a cat with nine lives，Arafat escaped every time．
For years he has made a practice of sleeping in a different bed each night for ears he has made a practice of sleeping my，thinking a being target is harder to hit.
In 1985，Israel sent fighter planes to kill Arafat．Me wild bombing destroyed his old headquarters（总部）in Tunis but Arafat himself was unhurt.
In 1992，the aircraft in which he was flying over north Africa broke in two during a crash landing.. The crew was killed but he managed to remain alive．
What is so unbelievable is that he always remains calm in great danger．
Israeli tanks and helicopters attacked his headquarters in Ramallah in December，2001．When they saw the attackers coming，Arafat's bodyguards ignored his orders to stay still and carried him to safety underground. Seconds later, several bombs exploded nearby. Through safe，his bodyguards were so scared they were soaked in sweat.
But Arafat，with Israeli tanks only 200 metres away，showed no fear at all．He stayed in the damaged office，contacting foreign leaders in hope of preventing further attacks from Israel．
All these experiences have made him a mysterious man，and one of the world's most legendary（传奇式的）leaders.
But has he used up the last of his nine lives? Only time will tell．
1．What is the main idea of the story?
A．Arafat was in danger again after Israel's decision to remove him．
B．Arafat faced dangers without fear．
C．Arafat was one of the most legendary leaders in the world．
D．Arafat may have used up the last of his nine lives．
2．Which is not one of the reasons that Arafat managed to live through countless dangers?
A．Luck． B．He was very careful．
C．He kept a clear head in danger． D．He had mysterious powers．
3．What does the word “scared” in the last paragraph but three mean?
A．Glad． B．Frightened． C．Feeling lucky． D．Worried．
4．Arafat's answer to Israeli decision showed ______.
A．that he wasn't afraid of danger
B．his determination to stay in his own country
C．that he has belief in himself
D．both A and B
B
If there is no difference in general intelligence（智力）between boys and girls, what can explain girls' poor performance in science and mathematics?
It seems to be that their treatment at school is a direct cause．Mathematics and science are seen as subjects mainly for boys，and therefore，as girls become teenagers，they are less likely to take them. Interestingly，both boys and girls often regard the subjects for boys as more difficult. Yet it has been suggested that girls do not take mathematics courses，not because they are difficult, but for social reasons．Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys they are afraid to appear less feminine（女性的）and attractive.
However，if we examine the performance of boys and girls who have taken mathematics courses，there are still more high-achieving boys than there are girls．This difference appears to be world-wide．Biological explanations have been offered for this，but there are other explanations too．
Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences．From their first days in kindergarten，boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks. Facts show that outstanding（杰出的）mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who supplied answers．
Besides，there can be little doubt that teachers of mathematics and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students．They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls．They spend more time with the boy students，giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them．They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion．They also praise boys more frequently．All of this seems to encourage boys to work harder in science and mathematics and to give them confidence（信心）that they are able to succeed．
Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many mathematics and science courses，nor is it likely to support girls who do．When it comes to these subjects it seem certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls．
5．Girls are likely to think that ______．
A．science courses are for both boys and girls
B．science courses make them more popular
C．science courses make them successful
D．science courses are difficult for them
6．The text mainly discusses ____reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements．
A．biological B．historical C．social D．personal
7．What are boys usually encouraged to do at school?
A．To get help with their homework．
B．To play the leading role in class．
C．To work with girl students in class．
D．To learn to take care of others．
8．What does the passage say about great mathematicians?
A．Their teachers did not supply answers to them.
B．They started learning mathematics at an earlier age．
C．They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years．
D．Their success resulted from their strong interest in mathematics．
9．Me author would probably agree that ______．
A．boys and girls s and learn in the same way
B．boys and girls are equal in general intelligence
C．girls are more confident in themselves than before
D．girls should take fewer science courses than boys
Ⅴ．短文改错
