[一模题组]
1.(2013·成都一诊)Parents are doing all they ________ to help their children achieve their ambitions.
A.shall C.may
B.can D.need
解析:选B 考查情态动词。句意:父母们在做他们力所能及的事来帮助他们的孩子实现他们的夙愿。完整形式为“Parents are doing all they can do to help their children achieve their ambitions.”其中they can do是定语从句,修饰先行词all; to help their children achieve their ambitions是目的状语。由于主句中出现了实义动词doing,所以省略了从句中的do。故答案为B。

A.needn't C.won't
B.can't D.shouldn't

A.might have failed C.should have failed

A.leave alone C.left alone
B.we left him alone D.we leave him alone

A.is C.were
B.would be D.has been

A.can't C.won't
B.don't D.mustn't

11.(2013·保定唐县一中高三一模)—Is it good to look up every new word when I come across it in reading?

A.doesn't dare to; dared not to B.daren't to; didn't dare to C.daren't; dared not D.doesn't dare to; dare not 解析:选C 考查dare的用法。句意:那个小孩晚上不敢独自外出,所以那晚他不敢在黑暗中行走。dare既可作实义动词,也可作情态动词,作实义动词时,一般用dare to do sth.,在否定句和疑问句中to可省略,作情态动词时,后接动词原形。分析各个选项可排除A、B两项,再根据句中的that night可知,第二空应用一般过去时,排除D项。
13.(2013·济南一模)They advocate the proposal we were opposed ________ rediscussed at the next meeting.
A.to be C.to was
