At the time, the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of London. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that it was almost impossible for horse carriages to get through. The city officials were interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day. If people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to go to and from work, they would relocate their homes outside of the city. This would help ease(减轻) the pressure of too many people living in the poor parts of London. From these problems, the idea of the London Underground, the first subway system, was born.The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays, but the fast track was finally opened in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the fast underground track which was 6 kilometers(3.7 miles) long. About 30,000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats(standing up while the train was moving was not allowed), and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. However, the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot(煤灰), as well as chemical gases. Fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems, riding in the Underground did catch on. It carried 9 million riders in its first year.46. What led the British government to build the London Underground?A. Traffic jams and pollution.B. Population and pollution.C. Overcrowding and traffic jams.D. The poverty and subway problems.47. How did the London Underground solve the smoke problem?A. It made the tunnels larger.B. It put fans in the tunnels.C. It cleaned the chemical gases in the tunnels.D. It reduced the number of passengers riding in the train.48. The underlined phrase “catch on” most probably means .A. be troublesomeB. become popular and fashionableC. keep up withD. seize49. Which of the following is TRUE?A. To relocate the workers homes outside London, the government built the subway.B. There were so many problems and delays that in 18th century the first subway opened.C. The subway greatly eased the pressure of traffic.D. There were not enough seats for the passengers the first day the subway opened.寒假训练02 Unit 2 The United Kingdom一、单句语法填空【答案】1.collecting2.thrilled3.description4.accomplishment5.arrangements6.in 7.for8.at9.is divided 10.Of二、单项选择【答案】11-15 ABBBC 16-20 BABBB【解析】11.考查动词短语辨析。recommend.to推荐；prefer.to更喜欢；refer to提到；deal with处理。句意：我会向喜欢旅游的人推荐这本书。因此选A。12.考查动词词组辨析。句意为：这些贼在因为分赃不均而互相争吵。由后面的equal shares可知，此处表示将整体分为几个部分，故用divide.into.；而separate.from.表示“把和分开”之意，不符合语境。13.考查时态。当他面对挑战时，发生在过去，而他上任这件事发生在过去的过去，故用过去完成时。句意：当比尔部长面对人生中最大的挑战时，他才上任不到48小时。故选B。14.考查情态动词。句意为：你从来不主动对他人施以援手，又怎能期望得到回报？shall将会；can表示能力，也可以表示被允许，与how连用表示强烈的感受；should应该；dare敢。故选B。15.考查with复合结构。此处为with宾语副词短语，作原因状语。16.考查原级比较结构。句意：不说John足球踢得比David好，他们至少踢得一样好。表示“和一样好”，应该用as well as，所以选B。17.考查虚拟语气。suggestion后的从句应用虚拟语气，即从句的谓语动词用should动词原形，其中should可以省略。18.考查状语从句的省略。在时间、条件、让步等状语从句中，如果从句的主语和主句的主语一致，且谓语部分有动词be时，常把从句中的主语和动词be省略。此句的完整形式为：if it is not carefully dealt with。19.考查情景交际。通过后句的Talk with me about what？可知，没有听清对方的话，所以再请对方再说一遍，故选B。20.考查短语辨析。lie in在于；account for说明，引起；consist of包括；go with相伴。句意：据说身体语言占了第一印象的百分之五十五，而你所说的话只占百分之七。故选B。三、完成句子【答案】21. break away from22. found all the cash stolen23. break down24. had; built25. divided; roughly; into【解析】21. want to do是固定用法，意思是想要做某事，后面接动词短语，所以填break away from。22.根据opened可知是发生在过去的事情，所以用一般过去时，填found all the cash stolen。23. break down是固定用法，意思是发生故障，所以填break down。24. the pyramid与build之间是被动关系，用have sth. done结构，所以填had the pyramid bulit。25.修饰动词，需要使用副词，所以填divided; roughly; into。四、完形填空【答案】26-30 ACBDA 31-35 DDCCA 36-40 BBCDA 41-45 BDACC【解析】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了英国英语和美国英语的异同及彼此的相互影响，作者发出这样的感慨：将来有一天大西洋两岸的英语可能会是一样了。26. 考查时间状语。A过去的；B最近的；C最古老的；D最新的。而该句的时态为现在完成时，要用in the past/last+时间状语表示“在过去的年间”，故选A。27. 考查名词辨析。A市民；B发明；C变化；D发展，进步。从上下文可知，英国和北美两个地方的英语在过去的三百年里发生了很多变化，以至现在人们很容易区分开英国人和美国人。故选C。28. 考查动词短语。tell.from.意为：把和区分开来。此处是说人们很容易地从他们交谈的方式上把英国人和美国人区分开来。故选B。29. 考查名词。A声音；B地方；C语言；D方式。in the way(that) he or she talks是指他们交谈的方式，故选D。30. 考查动词。A消失；B停留；C返回；D形成，组成。此处是说，很多旧单词在英国已消失了，而在美国却被保留了下来。选A。31. 考查动词。A说；B交谈；C演讲，讲语言；D叫，称为。本句中的something作定语从句中谓语动词的宾语，而a “faucet” , “spigot” or “tap” 也可作该动词的宾语，选项中只有call后可接双宾语。选D。32. 考查副词。A那时，那么；B几乎不；C清楚地；D仍然，还。从上下文看，有些词在美国的不同地方还能听到，因此用still。选D。33. 考查形容词。A必要的；B本土的；C常见的；D可爱的。上述三个单词现在只有tap一词在英国还能经常听人说起，common意为“常见的”，故选C。34. 考查短语。此处是说，美国人经常创造新词或改变旧词。make up相当于invent，故选C。35. 考查代词。A另一个；B其他的；C一个也没有；D某物。该句是说，Corn在美国是一种植物，但在英国却是另外一种植物。one.another.意为：一个另一个，故选A。36. 考查动词。A发现；B增加，添加；C提高，改善；D学习，了解。此处是说，在过去的三百多年里，英语也为以前未知的事物添加了很多新词。选B。37. 考查动词。A接受；B知道，了解；C介绍，引入；D明白，理解。此处指以前不为人所知的东西，选B。38. 考查形容词。A新的；B短的，矮的；C不同的；D令人吃惊的。此处是说，英美两国使用不同的名称。选C。39. 考查动词。A生产；B制作；C发展；D使用。单词radio在全世界被使用，包括美国。选D。40. 考查固定短语。此处是指几乎所有的和汽车、铁路有关的事物，have something to do with意为：和有关系，故选A。41. 考查名词。A种类；B名称，名字；C学位；D部分。同样的东西在英国英语和美国英语中有了两个不同的名字。选B。42. 考查固定短语。此处是说，美国英语和英国英语正变得越来越接近。grow closer“变得越来越接近”，grow相当于become。43. 考查形容词。A：英国的；B：美国的；C：受过教育的；D：普通的，一般的。从下文看，现在的英国受美国的影响更大，因此是British people，选A。44.考查名词。A：家庭，家人；B：公交车；C：电影；D：报纸。由后文的on television, or from travelers可推断此处用movies，表示在电影里。故选C。45. 考查动词短语。need to do sth.需要做某事；expect to do sth.期待做某事；seem to do sth.似乎/好像做某事；happen to do sth.碰巧做某事。此处是说，由于以上的原因，美国英语似乎正越来越多地影响英国英语。故选C。五、阅读理解【答案】46.
