答案及詳細(xì)解析

一、 用所給詞的正確形式填空

1. will be 解析：句末明顯的時(shí)間標(biāo)志，next year，應(yīng)該用一般將來時(shí)，will+動(dòng)詞原形。

2. has collected 解析：這是現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)很經(jīng)典的句子，由since引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語或是時(shí)間狀語從句。更

?？嫉氖?，since加過去時(shí)的句子，主句用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)的情況，比如說：He has lived China for 4

years sice he moved here in 2005.

3. helps 解析：本題有標(biāo)志詞always，用一般現(xiàn)在是，要注意主語是第三人稱單數(shù)，動(dòng)詞要用第三人稱單數(shù)形

式。

4. playing 解析：would you mind +doing sth，動(dòng)詞的這類用法需要不斷積累和歸納。

5. was dancing 解析：本題中的狀語從句由while引導(dǎo)，強(qiáng)調(diào)的是同時(shí)性，應(yīng)該用進(jìn)行時(shí)，由于主句

中用了過去時(shí)態(tài)，后文應(yīng)對(duì)應(yīng)的使用過去進(jìn)行時(shí)。

6. to be 解析：固定用法，seem to，好像—后面直接跟動(dòng)詞原形。

7. clean 解析：本題考查使役動(dòng)詞make的用法，make sb do sth。更有難度一點(diǎn)的題應(yīng)該是考查使

役動(dòng)詞的被動(dòng)態(tài)，應(yīng)該是be made to do sth.

二、 閱讀文章回答問題

1. English.

2. 6,000 languages.

3. Yes, it does.

4. No, we use about fifty of them.

5. Women.

(這類閱讀題也是XSC中常見的，但其實(shí)一般難度沒有選擇題大，最重要的是回答的時(shí)候要到位準(zhǔn)確，

不必太多廢話，還有一點(diǎn)很重要的是要注意英文的書寫。)
