大家知道，现在的中考英语试题总体不难，只要不放弃英语学习的学生都可以考及格以上，但欲考接近满分却并非易事。因为为了适当拉开学生距离，命题老师往往也会出一两个所谓的压轴题，以把那些真正的英语尖子生选拔出来。有时候我们学生与重点高中失之交臂，就是失分在下面精选的难题上。
91. She was born _______ the evening of August 8, 2008.
D. with
解析：选 B. 此题学生会误选 A. 具体某天用 on。
92.They preferred ______ in bed rather than _____ horses. A.to lie; to ride
B.lying; riding C.to lie; ride D.lying; ride
解析：选择 C. 此题容易误选 B, D. 此题考查句型 prefer to do sth rather than do sth。比起做某事宁愿做某事。
93. Can you imagine that __ little ants can eat __ many big worms. A.so; so
B.such; such C.such; so D.so; such
解析：选择 C. 此题受思维定势影响容易选 A. 本题中 little 意为"小的"而非"少的"。那么第一空就应该选择 such。
94.We must do everything we can__waste water from running into rivers. A.keep
B.kept C.to keep D.keeping
解析：选 C. 此题学生容易受思维定势影响影响会误选 A, 其实本题是考查动词不定式表目的。
95. He’ll use what he has _____ her a new dress. A.bought
B.to buy C.buying D.been bought
解析：选 B. 此题容易误选 A. 其实本题是考查动词不定式表目的
96.Everyone except Tom and John ______ seen the film. A.is
D.have
解析：选 B. 此题考查主谓一致。句子中主语含有 except, with, as well was 等词时，谓语动词不受后面影响，与前面主语保持一致。Everyone 是不定代词，谓语动词用单数。
97.—Jolin, how long have you been a teacher as a pop star?
—______the end of last month, after Jolin’s English Diary Book came out.
D. At
解析：选择 A. 此题学生容易误选 C. D. 根据上句现在完成时，只能用 since。
98.—Hello, could I speak to Mr. Smith, please? —Sorry, there isn’t ____Mr. Smith here.
D. /
解析：选 B. 此题很难。 人名，地名等专有名词前一般没有冠词，但本句句意是：这里没有一个叫 Mr. Smith 的人。
99. ––Who is on the playground?
C. too much D. A lot
解析：选择 A。 none 可以回答 How many 引导的特殊疑问句，no one 用来回答 Who 引导的特殊疑问句。
100. She asked me _____ I would do it or not.
D. until
解析：选 B. If 和 whether 都可以用来引导宾语从句，表示"是否"之意。但当后面有 or not 时
