大学英语每日一练（9-23）

21. How I wish every family ________ a large house with a beautiful garden.

A. has

B. had

C. will have

D. have

【答案】B

【解析】考查虚拟语气。句意：我多么希望每个家庭都能有一种带有大花园的大房子啊!根据句意说明是对现在的情况的虚拟，故使用一般过去时，故B正确。

22. But for the party, he ________ of hunger 30 years ago.

A. would have died

B. would die

C. must have died

D. must die

【答案】A

【解析】考查虚拟语气。but for (要不是因为、如果没有) 通常与虚拟语气连用，由30 years ago可知，这是与过去事实相反的情况，所以选would have died。

23. In the office I never seem to have time until after 5:30 p.m., ________ many people have got home.

A. whose time

B. by that time

C. on which

D.by which time

【答案】D

【解析】本题是由介词+关系代词+名词引导的定语从句。短语by that time 意思为“到那时”，在定语从句中，要用 by which time。故选择D。

24. ________ today, he would get there for holiday.

A. Was he leaving

B. Were he to leave

C. Would he leave

D. If he leaves

【答案】B

【解析】本题考查虚拟语气的倒装。在虚拟语气中, 如if条件句中有were, should, had done(过去完成),则可把if省略, 并把were, should, had提前，故选择B。

25. John’s score on the test is the highest in the class; he ________ last night.

A.should study

B. should have studied

C.must have studied

D. must have to study

【答案】C

【解析】考查虚拟语气。句意：约翰的考试分数全班最高，他昨天晚上一定学习了。表示对过去动作行为的肯定猜测要用 must have done这一句型结构。

26. Nobody but Jane ________ the secret.

A. knows

B. know

C. have know

D. is known

【答案】A

【解析】考查主谓一致。该句的主语为nobody，动词用第三人称单数。故选A。

27.The fire destroyed ________ was in the building.

A.all

B.what

C.that

D.which

【答案】B

【解析】此题考查宾语从句，用关系代词what，替代从句中的主语。

28. ________ other stars are much bigger and brighter than the sun.

A.Thousands of

B.Thousand of

C.The thousand of

D.Thousands

【答案】A

【解析】考查名词单复数。hundreds / thousands of 为固定搭配，表示数百万数千万的，故选择A。

29. Dorothy was always speaking highly of her role in the play, ________, of course, made the others unhappy.

A. who

B. which

C. this

D. what

【答案】B

【解析】考查定语从句。在定语从句中which指代一句话的内容在句中做主语，引导非限制性定语从句。句意：Dorothy总是高度表扬自己在戏剧中的作用，这件事情让其他人不高兴了。故选择B。

30. I would have come earlier, but I ________ that you were waiting for me.

A. didn’t know

B. hadn’t know

C. would have known

D. haven’t known

【答案】A

【解析】考查虚拟语气。因为would have come earlier是与过去事实相反的虚拟语气，而后面分句表示的是事实：当时我的确不知道，所以用一般过去时，故选A。
