basketball practice，I saw Marilyn，walking with no umbrella，no raincoat and no hat.分析：本句含有as引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句；現(xiàn)在分詞短語(yǔ)walking with.no hat 作謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞saw的伴隨狀語(yǔ)。譯文：接著，在三月一個(gè)雨天的下午，在我籃球訓(xùn)練完開(kāi)車回家的途中，我看見(jiàn)了Marilyn，她走在雨中，沒(méi)有帶雨傘，沒(méi)有穿雨衣，也沒(méi)有戴帽子。1C考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段的“The thought of seeing my former teaches was exciting.So I agreed”可以看出，由于在校園舞會(huì)上可以見(jiàn)到原來(lái)的老師，所以作者決定參加舞會(huì)。所以選C項(xiàng)。2B考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段首句“When Friday came，I cleaned up，dressed up and drove to the high school gym”的描述可以看出，作者對(duì)這次舞會(huì)的態(tài)度是很正式的(formal)。所以選B項(xiàng)。3A考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段的“Back home from the Navy，I started school at Greenville College in my hometown of Illinois.Id been out of high school for four years”可以推斷，作者在高中畢業(yè)后去海軍服役4年，退役后就讀于家鄉(xiāng)的大學(xué)。所以選A項(xiàng)。二、單句語(yǔ)法填空1(2017北京高考)Jane moved aimlessly down the treelined street, not knowing _ she was heading.答案：where根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，此處應(yīng)填關(guān)系副詞where，作賓語(yǔ)從句的連接詞，表示“不知道前往何處”。2(2017天津高考)I _(drive) down to London when I suddenly found that I was on the wrong road.答案：was drivingbe doing. when. 是固定句式，表示“正在做這時(shí)”，從句用的是一般過(guò)去時(shí)，主句也應(yīng)用過(guò)去時(shí)，且表示動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行，故用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)。3Today I will introduce Charles Dickens to you, the great nineteenth century English _(novel)答案：novelistnovelist名詞“小說(shuō)家”。4The rules of the school do not permit _(park) near the school gate.答案：parkingpermit doing sth. “允許做某事”。5We tried _(seek) an answer to the question, but
