选修6 Unit 2 高考试卷分块专练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 The English language has an interesting way of classifying words.You might find that a noun acts like an adjective.You know that an adjective modifies(修饰),describing a quality of a noun.For example,you drink a cup of hot tea.The adjective is hot and the noun is tea.What about lemon tea?Lemon is a noun,isn't it?Why is it modifying tea? ??? English often uses nouns as adjectives to modify other nouns.For example,a car that people drive in races is a race car.A car with extra power or speed is a sports car.Nouns that modify other nouns are called adjectival nouns. ??? Did you notice something unusual about the expressions with the noun car?A car used to race other cars is a race car.Both nouns are singular.A car that has power and speed is a sports car.Why is the first noun,sports,plural?A search of the Internet shows us that people started using this phrase back in 1914.Cars were a new thing then. ??? There is no rule about whether the attributive noun is singular or plural.Most of the time it is singular.But if the combination of nouns includes a plural noun,it usually stays that way.The result is phrases like ladies room,not lady room,for a room meant for women and girls,and bean soup but not beans soup for a soup made of beans.Some grammar experts think that English speakers are using more plural nouns in this way. ??? When writing these attributive nouns in English,learners sometimes wonder about whether to use an apostrophe(撇号)to show possession.Is it a ladies' room?No,it is a ladies room.Attributive nouns do not need the apostrophe.So we write Veterans(老兵)Day in American English and not Veteran's Day or Veterans' Day.That means the day is in honor of military veterans,not owned by veterans. 1.What's the topic of this text?A.The fun_ction of nouns.B.Special kinds of adjective.C.A special use of nouns.D.The use of adjectives.2.Adjectival nouns can be used to describe_____.A.adjectivesB.sentencesC.phrasesD.other nouns3.Why is the plural form “sports” is used to describe a noun?A.It is a traditional usage.B.It is a rule of grammar.C.It is a grammar mistake.D.It is a form of stress.4.Which of the following is a correct English expression?A.Ladies' room.B.Veteran's Day.C.Veterans' Day.D.Veterans Day. 参考答案： 1.C; 2.D; 3.A; 4.D 解析： 1.[主旨大意题。本文谈论名词的一种特殊用法:作定语。由第一段得出。]2.[细节理解题。形容词性名词用来修饰其他名词。由第二段最后一句Nouns that modify other nouns are called adjectival nouns得出。]3.[推理判断题。复数名词sports作定语是一种传统用法。由第三段倒数第二句A search of the Internet shows us that people started using this phrase back in 1914得出。]4.[细节理解题。Veterans Day“美国退伍军人节”,两个名词之间不是所属关系,不能用撇号。由最后一段得出。] 单句语法填空 1．Is there anything _____ particular that you want to talk about? 答案：in　in particular为固定的介词短语，作后置定语，修饰anything，意为“特别的”。 2．If we _____ (exchange) telephone number last week, I woul ... ...
