2012小升初英语每日一练答案解析（3）

一、 用所给词的适当形式填空

1. Don't smoke, somking 解析：前半句是祈使句，变否定时加主动词do,后半句是标志的习惯译

法，也可以理解为No后面加名词或名词词性的形式，即动名词形式。

2. swims, is swimming 解析：前半句表示状态，用一般现在时，且由于主语是爸爸，用动词单三形

式；后半句有look这个时间标志，用现在进行时。

3. was 解析：最后的时间标志词，a moment ago应该用一般过去时。

4. Do 解析：主语是nancy's brothers是复数，助动词用DO。

5. them 解析：本题考查人称代词用法，本代词作put的宾语，用人称代词的宾格。代的是books用复

数them.

6. glasses 解析：本题考查不可数名词表个体时，要用单位名词，在表示复数时将单位名词变复数。

7. exciting, excited 解析：exciting指（物或事件）让人觉得兴奋；excited指（人）兴奋的。

二、 阅读理解

1. C 解析：本题从第一段最后一句便可得知答案。

2. B 解析：本题从第二段最后一句可推断出答案。

3. B 解析：本题是推断意思的题目，是阅读理解题中的难点。这类推断短语意思的题目要通读划线部分整句及前后一句基本上就可以得出答案。前一句提到人们希望这个钟应该是'biggest and the best'，这与后文的句子是对应的。Big对应biggest, Keep very good time与the best对应。对clock而言，the best就应该是时间很准，所以选B。这类题目一般都直接看不出意思，要通过上下文判断。

4. C 解析：本题为判断正误题，而且选的是错误的选项，应该把每个选项都看过，逐一排除。文中提到人们写信给big Ben但并没提到人们希望能收到回信，所以C选项错误。

5. D 解析：本题通过通读二三段可得出答案。
