參考答案:

1.A

【詳解】句意：作為現代中國的學生，每個人都應該努力工作，過有意義的生活。

考查冠詞。此處用livea/an...life表示“過著...的生活”，meaningful以輔音音素開頭，其前用不定冠詞ao

故選Ao

2.D

【詳解】句意：2024年1月1日上午，習近平主席發表了新年賀詞。

考查介詞辨析。in用在世紀、年、季節等前；。￡..…的；at后接鐘點或正午；。n后接具體到某一天的時間

或具體某一天的早晨。根據空后“themorningofJanuary1st”可知，指的是具體某一天的上午。故選D。

3.D

【詳解】句意：——昆明一年四季不太冷也不太熱，是一個居住或旅游的好地方。——對。我去年去過那

里。

考查代詞辨析。that那；one同類中的一個；this這；it指代同一事物。neithertoocoldnortoohotall

yearroundinKunming,making...aperfectplacetoliveinorvisit.”可知此處用it指代上文提到過的昆明。故

選D。

4.D

【詳解】句意：一一我們的英語老師非常自信。他總是準備好接受挑戰。一一他確實是。我們都喜歡他。

考查動詞辨析。touch觸摸;choose選擇；discuss討論；accept接受。根據"OurEnglishteacherisveryconfident.

Andheisalwaysreadyto...achallenge”可知他很自信，總是準備好接受挑戰。故選D。

5.B

【詳解】句意：第一個諾貝爾獎授予了一位德國科學家，因為他發現了射
