---Where is Class       ?

---It’s on the       floor.

Six; third

Sixth; third

Six; three

Sixth; three

考查数词辨析。句意：----六班在哪里？---在三楼。英语中表达序号时，如果用基数词表示：名词+基数词，如六班，Class Six;如果用序数词表示：the+序数词+名词，如三楼，即the third floor。故选A项。

Her father         a writer.

turned

grew

has turned

has become

考查系动词的区别。句意：她的父亲变成了一位作家。Turn，grow，become用作系动词均可表示“变化”，使用时要注意：become主要指一个人暂时性的身心变化或永久性的自然变化，另外还可用于指天气变化和社会的趋势；grow主要表示逐渐变化，强度变化过程；turn后接名词，往往表示意想不到的变化，名词前通常不加冠词。故选D项。

--What is happening in that new area?

---New houses          over there.

are built

are building

have built

are being built

考查时态和语态。句意：在那个新区域里发生什么事情了？那儿建起来许多新的大楼。根据第一句时态is happening 可知，时态用现在进行时，故第二句也要用现在进行时，主语 houses与build 建立之间是被动关系，故用现在进行时的被动语态（am/is/are being done），此处为are being built，故选D项。

We shouldn't take         for granted that we still have a lot of time before the Entrance Examination.

this

that

it

such

考查代词。句意：我们不应该想当然地认为在高考前我们还有很多时间。这里涉及了一个固定句型take it for granted that 认为.....是理所当然的，该句型中it 作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面that引导的从句。故选C项。

The salesman scolded the girl caught         and let her off.

to have stolen

to be stealing

to steal

stealing

考查非谓语动词。句意：这个销售员责备了被抓住正在偷东西的女孩，然后，让她走了。分析句子结构，caught是过去分词作定语，修饰前面的名词 the girl,"女孩"和"偷东西"之间是主动关系，用现在分词作宾语补足语，构成catch sb doing sth结构。意为抓住某人正在做某事。故选D项。
