Ⅰ.语法单句填空
1．My first ________(impress) of him was that he was a kind and thoughtful young man.
答案：impression 考查名词。句意：我对他的第一印象是他是一个善良且有思想的年轻人。
2．He heard someone following him, and glanced round. He caught sight ________ a dark figure in the shadows.
答案：of 句意：他听到有人在跟踪他，便向周围扫了一眼，发现阴暗处有一个黑影。catch sight of看见；瞥见，符合句意。
3．The equipment for disabled people should be ________ easy reach in public places.
答案：within 考查介词短语。句意：在公共场所，残疾人使用的设施应该方便残疾人。由句意可知，填within，within easy reach在附近(距离不远)。
4．Scientists have found evidence ________ global warming caused the world's first horses to become smaller nearly 50 million years ago.
答案：that 考查同位语从句。句意：科学家们已经找到证据，证明大约5000万年前，全球变暖使世界上首批马的个头变小了。根据句意可知，空后说的是evidence的内容，并且句中不缺少成分，所以用that引导同位语从句。
5．—When did you get home last night?
—It was almost midnight ________ we arrived home.
答案：when 考查状语从句。句意：——你们昨晚什么时候到家的？——我们到家的时候差不多是午夜了。答语中“It was almost midnight”为主句，空处引导时间状语从句，应用连词when。此题容易误填that，误把答语当作强调句型。如果是强调句型，应是：It was at midnight that we arrived home。
