She reading

She reads

To read

Reading

考查时态以及省略。句意：—Joan正在做什么？—在房间里看报纸。根据句意说明描述的是现在正在发生的事情，所以使用进行时的时态，是对what is Joan doing?的回答。回答完整应该是she is reading...，此处省略了she is，故D正确。

Like other animals, we are          until we know it is safe to relax.

on purpose

on fire

on guard

on duty

考查介词短语辨析。句意：像其他动物一样，我们在知道安全的时候才放松警惕。A.on purpose 故意；B. on fire着火；C.on guard 警惕；D.on duty值班。结合后文we know it is safe to relax，可知我们在知道安全的时候才放松警惕。故选C项。

The most important promises we must keep are          we make to ourselves.

ones

those

these

them

考查代词。句意：我们必须遵守的最重要的承诺就是我们对自己做出的承诺。A. ones泛指上文提到的可数名词复数；B. those特指上文提到的可数名词复数；C. these这些；D.them他们。分析句子可知，为we must 是定语从句，修饰The most important promises，是句子的主语；be动词后缺少表演，we make to ourselves是定语从句，修饰空格处。根据句意，此处指上文提到的promises,由定语从句修饰表示特指，故用 those。故选B项。

It is said that railway station is now         large as What it was.

as twice

twice as

twice much

much twice

考查倍数表达法。句意：据说火车站现在是原来的两倍大。倍数的基本结构一般为“A+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B”，表示“A正好是B的多少倍”。联系下文large as，此处用twice as large as 表示“是.....的两倍大”。故选B项。

— Father, you promised!

—Well,____．But it was you who didn't keep your word first．

so was I 

so did I 

so I was 

so I did

考查部分倒装“So + be/情态动词/助动词 + 主语”与表强调的“So + 主语 + be/情态动词/助动词”区别。根据语境“you promised（你许诺过）”和答语“But it was …”可知爸爸回答“我的确许诺过”，且promised是过去时，所以表强调要用助动词did,故选D。句意：——爸爸，你许诺过。——好啦，我的确许诺过。但是是你先没有遵守诺言。
