大学英语每日一练（5-7）

31. I find it hard to imagine a time when __________ to solve.

A. no problems will be there B. there will be no problems

C. no problems there will be D. there no problems will be

【答案】B

【解析】考查there be结构在定语从句中的使用。句意：我发现想象一个没有需要解决的问题的时代很难。题干中的when引导一个定语从句修饰a time，该定语从句应该用陈述语序，因此B为答案。句子最后的不定式 to solve作problems的定语。

32. When we arrived at the airport, the plane __________.

A. already took off B. took off already C. had already taken off D. has already taken off

【答案】C

【解析】考查时态。句意：我们到的时候飞机已经起飞了。过去完成时表示某个动作发生在一个过去的动作之前，本题中飞机起飞发生在我们到达机场之前，因此要使用had done结构。

33. — Would you like to go out for a picnic?

— Yes, it’s __________ day!

A. so a beautiful B. so beautiful C. such beautiful D. such a beautiful

【答案】D

【解析】考查so和such的用法。句意：——你想去野炊吗?——想啊，今天天气多么好啊!这两个词都可以表示强调，但是so后面要紧跟形容词或副词，如so large, so much, so clever;such后要紧跟名词或名词词组，如such fine weather, such clever boy。

34. I know Mike is slow at understanding, but we should be patient __________ him.

A. for B. with C. at D. about

【答案】B

【解析】考查固定搭配。句意：我知道麦克反应慢，但是我们应该对他有耐心。形容词patient意为“有耐心的”，可以与with搭配，表示“对……有耐心”。

35. He is studying diligently __________ he should fall behind.

A. for fear that B. so that C. unless D. before

【答案】A

【解析】考查状语从句的引导词。句意：他担心落后所以现在学习很努力。for fear that意为“担心”，其后从句一般使用虚拟语气;so that意为“以至于”;unless意为“除非”;before意为“在……前”。本题前半句提到他正在勤奋学习，后半句使用了虚拟语气，意思为“落在后面”，根据句意，应使用for fear that。

36. 【翻译】In most cases, individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter.

37. 【翻译】It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat.

【答案】卖出去一篇故事太难了，我几乎没办法挣够吃饭的钱。

38. 【翻译】Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip, too. You’ll not only save money, but you’ll also see a lot more of the country.

39. 【翻译】Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where young people can stay for only a few dollars a night.
