參考答案及解析:
1、B 此題需要填入一個詞能與a large of搭配來修飾information這個不可數(shù)名詞。滿足以上條件的是B選項(xiàng),a large amount of表示“大量的”,其后接不可數(shù)名詞,為正確答案。A選項(xiàng)deal只能構(gòu)成a great deal of(大量的),不能與large相搭配;C選項(xiàng)構(gòu)成a large number of,后邊只能接可數(shù)名詞;D選項(xiàng)構(gòu)成a large sum of表示“一大筆”,其后一般接money,故選B項(xiàng)?
句意:這本書包含了大量的信息?
2、D 瀏覽選項(xiàng),只有A選項(xiàng)element與D選項(xiàng)point可構(gòu)成句式The most important element/point is that表示“最重要的…是…”,point此處指要點(diǎn)或觀點(diǎn),The most important point of his speech指演講中最重要的一點(diǎn),element可以指要素或成分,The most important element of his speech指的是演講最重要的一部分,后面所述部分為一個觀點(diǎn),因此D選項(xiàng)正確。B選項(xiàng)spot(斑點(diǎn),污漬,地點(diǎn)),C選項(xiàng)sense(感覺,意識)都不能與原句構(gòu)成合理的語意,故都排除。
句意:他演講中最重要的一點(diǎn)是我們應(yīng)該全心全意為人民服務(wù)。
3、C term“詞語,術(shù)語”,在表示“(協(xié)議、合同等的)條件,條款”時寫作復(fù)數(shù)terms。其余三項(xiàng):law“法律,法規(guī);規(guī)章”;rule“規(guī)章,條例”;detail“細(xì)節(jié),詳情”,在表示“具體情況,(關(guān)于某事物的)資料”時常寫作復(fù)數(shù)details。
句意:根據(jù)合同條款,若員工想要離職,他們必須提前六個月通知。
4、D a variety of為固定搭配,意為“各種各樣的”。其余三項(xiàng):scope“(組織、活動等的)范圍”;kind“種類,同類的人或事物”,a kind of“(表示不確切)某種,隱約”;rank“地位,級別,等級”。
句意:我還是個銀行職員的時候,有機(jī)會遇到各種各樣的人:學(xué)生,士兵和工廠工人。
5、A see 看到、認(rèn)識到;領(lǐng)會;(當(dāng)see 與that 連用時)爭取,務(wù)必(做到)。其余三項(xiàng):know 知道、了解;熟悉;懂得,feel 體會;觸摸;探尋,learn 學(xué)會;獲悉。take pains:盡力,努力,苦干。
句意:瑪麗盡力爭取她的客人擁有他們可能需要的一切。
6、A under no circumstances“在任何情況下都不,決不”,是固定搭配。situation處境,狀況;occasion 場合,時機(jī);moment片刻,時機(jī)。tell lies:說謊。此句為倒裝句
句意:在任何條件下,都不允許孩子們對家長撒謊。
7、B A項(xiàng)committee意為“義務(wù)”;B項(xiàng)embarrassment意為“尷尬”;C項(xiàng)failure意為“失敗”;D項(xiàng)benefit意為“利益”。
句意:由于任何回答都會給政府帶來尷尬,所以發(fā)言人試圖繞開這個問題。
8、D a variety of各種各樣的。a couple of兩個,幾個;a kind of一種;a range of一系列,一套。have the opportunity to…:有機(jī)會做某事。
句意:我是個銀行職員的時候,有機(jī)會遇到各種各樣的人:學(xué)生,士兵和工廠工人。 |
