參考答案&解析:
1、D. eliminate.
[注釋]eliminate(=get rid of, do away with)消除,排除,淘汰:1) Can the government eliminate poverty?(政府能否消除貧困?) 2)eliminate slang words form an essay(從文章中去掉俚語(yǔ)詞)。
2、A. dressed.
[注釋]be dressed in 穿這...衣服。Wear意為“穿著”是及物動(dòng)詞,語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)上與本題不符。Put on穿上,強(qiáng)調(diào)的動(dòng)作。
3、A. due to.
[注釋]due to由于。有些語(yǔ)言專(zhuān)家認(rèn)為due to引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ)在句中只能作表語(yǔ),如:1)His absence was due to the storm. 2)The delay was due to heavy traffic. 3)This accident was due to his carelessness.但現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)里due to引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ)可以作狀語(yǔ)用,如:He failed due to carelessness. Due to heavy traffic, he was late for an hour or so.
4、C. geared.
[注釋]be geared to與...相連接的,與...搭配得上的。Be relative to與...有關(guān)的:This is not relative to the accident.(這和這次事故無(wú)關(guān)。)本題意指courses(課程)是否與needs(需要)掛得上鉤,而不是一般得有點(diǎn)關(guān)系,故應(yīng)選geared.
5、D. get over.
[注釋]get over (difficulties)克服(困難)。
