1.【答案】C
【解题指要】本题考查非谓语动词的用法。该句要表达的意思是：被夜里的声音吓坏了，这个女孩不敢睡在自己的房间里。分词短语作状语，主语是the girl，对于主语来说，应该用过去分词表示被动含义，意为“被吓坏了”，故此题选择C。
2.【答案】C
【解题指要】本题考查代词用法。该句要表达的意思是：中国比亚洲其他国家都大。因为中国是亚洲范围内的国家，所以要加上other，排除中国本身的亚洲其他国家。故本题选择C。
3.【答案】C
【解题指要】本题考查动词的用法。该句要表达的意思是：琳达建议不要说这件事了，直
到我们弄清了更多的事实。本题考查动词suggest的固定用法，suggest+doing形式，其否定形式在doing前加not。因此本题选择C。
4.【答案】A
【解题指要】本题考查动词的用法。该句要表达的意思是：作为惩罚，Bob被迫给父亲洗车两个星期。be made to do sth.符合句意，故本题选择A。
5.【答案】A
【解题指要】本题考查动词的时态。该句要表达的意思是：如果下雨，我们就不出去了。但是天空格外的晴朗。本句中but起到关键作用，说明现在天气是好的。因此选用现在时，本题选择A。
6.【答案】B
【解题指要】本题考查倒装句的用法。该句要表达的意思是：虽然他成功了，但是他并不骄傲。此题为倒装句，形容词或者副词直接提前构成倒装。由于句中是is，显然应该是形容词，所以选择B。
7.【答案】D
【解题指要】本题考查固定句型it's time+从句。该句要表达的意思是：玛丽33岁了，她的
父母认为她该结婚了。此句型的固定用法是从句使用过去时态。故本题选择D。
8.【答案】C
【解题指要】本题考查交际用语。该句要表达的意思是：一你觉得我们会赶不上火车吗?一希望不会。C完全符合语言习惯，故本题选择C。
9.【答案】D
【解题指要】本题考查根据句意选择适当的词。该句要表达的意思是：我们没有酒精了，因此只好用汽油来代替。instead表示代替，置于句末。instead of一般置于句中，且后面要接宾语。因此本题选择D。
10.【答案】A
【解题指要】本题考查习惯用语。该句要表达的意思是：一史密斯先生今天看起来不高兴。一是的，他家昨天着火了。他的狗烧伤了。get burnt为习惯用法，get是系动词，burnt为形容词，意为烧伤。故本题选择A。
11.【答案】D 此题考查what引导的名词性从句作主语的情况。What引导的名词性从句可以理解为：what=the thing that, what the press reported=the thing that the press reported, that 在这里引导定语从句修饰 the thing，that 在定语从句中代替the thing作report的宾语，而the thing作这个句子的主语，谓语动词是后面的was。A项和B项可以排除，what the press reported：媒体所报道的(内容)。主与从句不需要用倒装形式，故C项克排除
12.【答案】B。宾语从句要用陈述句的语序，what在从句中做宾语，所以选B。
13.【答案】B。本题考查的是doubt后面的宾语从句连接词。主句是肯定的时候，用whether，但是否定的时候用that。本题由于主句中有never。我相当了解乔纳森并且从不怀疑他能做好工作。
14.【答案】D 这里air和后面得短语结构式一种同位关系，后面得短语结构式air的另一种叫法，同时这个结构和airy用or连接，作句子的主语，故应该用what引导的名词性从句;what=the thing that……(定语从句)，他和thing和air同时作整个句子的主语，that代替the thing在定语从句中作主语;what is called atmosphere：被叫做大气的物质。
15.【答案】A 本句缺的是宾语，选A组成一个what引导的名词从句充当宾语。What he could to help the poor = the things that / which he could do to help the poor, 即the things 做前面done 的宾语，而that 或which代替the things 做后面could(do)的宾语，do被省略了。D答案all后面的定语从句的引导词只能是that。
16.【答案】B 同位语从句用that引导，that在从句中不作任何实际成分，这也是判断定语从句与同位语从句的一个方法。
17.【答案】A 不管你说什么或做什么，都不会改变我的主意。该句子缺少宾语，能做宾语的只有whatever.
18.【答案】A 此句为how引导的宾语从句。how后面紧跟它所修饰的形容词或副词，然后再接一个陈述句。另外注意短语be pleased to do sth。因此A为正确答案。本句的意思是：“我必须告诉你收到你的来信我是多么高兴。”
19.【答案】D what 引导的名词从句作主语。
20.【答案】.B 宾语从句应该用陈述句语序，因此排除C，D。而此句主句为谓语为一般过去时，从句的动作发生在主句之前，因此应当用过去完成时.
21.【答案】B can you tell me后面的句子为宾语从句，应该使用陈述句语序，故B正确。该宾语从句实际是一个强调句式，可以这样理解：it is what about the city that makes people love it so much.被强调部分为what about the city“关于这个城市的什么”;引导宾语从句时，疑问词what要提前。
22.【答案】A。本题考查的是名词从句连接词。do后面是宾语从句，根据句子意思即可做出选择。这些野花非常的特殊，以至于我不得不做我所有能做的去救它们。
23.【答案】C 选that引导一个同位语从句，that the war had ended是news的同位语，说明news的内容
24.【答案】A 本题缺乏的是宾语，选A组成一个引导的名词从句充当宾语，what he could to help the poor = the things that he cold do to help the poor,the things 做前面that的宾语，而that或which 代替the things 做后面could (do) 的宾语，do 被省略了，所以which 不对。D 项答案想用all和它的定语从句的形式，但all后面的定语从句的引导词只能是that.
25.【答案】C句意：(那些)理论上看起来简单的，实践却很困难。本句包含一个主语从句What seems easy in theory, what 此处相当于the thing that ,可以这样理解: the thing 作句子的主语，that 引导定于从句修饰the thing; 故不能用that ; what 在句子中引导的是一个名词性从句，作主语。
26. B。注意句中的Yes，由于答话者对问话者的“你需要帮助吗?”作了肯定回答，说明答话者独自完成工作有困难，故填more than。
27. C。由于是将“Love me, love my dog”与“Love me, love my book”进行比较，故用比较级。此题的巧妙之处在于句中没有出现than，而是给出两个待比较的proverb。
28. B。句子大意为：由于铁路提速了，所以高速公路和航空业要提高服务质量来竞争客源。因将“高速公路和航空”与“铁路”比较，故用比较级。
29. B。题目中将“放入冰箱中冷冻”与“不放入冰箱中冷冻”作比较，故用比较级。句意为：史密斯家人晚餐时上的甜瓜若能放入冰箱中冷冻一下味道会更好些。
30. B。这四个副词中，通常只有far可用于修饰比较。注：quite有时也可用于修饰比较better，但它只用于表示“身体康复”，不用于其他意义。
31. C。因为是从他所写的所有歌中选出一首来比较，故用最高级(from www.yygrammar.com)。
32. B。因是两者比较，故用比较级，可将答案锁定在B和C之间;再根据句意，排除C。
33. D。此题考查more…than…的用法，其意为“与其说……不如说……”。
34. D。句中的no better than相当于as badly as，其意为“一样不好”。
35. A。that在用作副词，用法相当于so，意为“如此，这么”。
36. C。在as…as…结构中，表示倍数的词或程度副词都放在第一个as之前。
37. A。语序：不定代词 + 指示代词 + 序数词 + 基数词。
38. A。此题考查can’t be too + adj，其意为“无论……也不为过”。
39. A。因为likely是形容词，意为“可能的”，在句中作表语。easily和nearly是副词;虽然lonely(寂寞的)是形容词，但其意义与句意不通。
40. C。因为只有regularly(经常地)才与now and then(偶尔)相对。
41. C。merely在此表示“只是”，其他选项意义不通。
42. A。因为It couldn’t be any worse. 意为“(他的工作做得)非常差”，与后文内容相符。
43. A。因为too…to do sth. (太…以至于不能做…) 是固定搭配。
44. A。由答语No, it’s worse.可知问句中用better。
45. B。后面省略了than he did，意为“我今年还没看到比他跑得更好成绩的人”。
46. B. 因为collection (收藏品，收集物) 是可数名词，此处为单数，又不是特指，所以用不定冠词;books是名词复数表示种类，而非特指，所以不用冠词。又如：a fine collection of paintings精美的绘画收藏品。
47. B. word (话、话语) 是可数名词，without saying a word意为“没说一句话”;虽然silence (沉默)是不可数名词，但此处是特指前面提到的那种沉默，所以用the。
48. A. 因为school, college, university, hospital, prison, church, table, bed名词等指其用途时，不用冠词。leave college意为“大学毕业”。又因为表示职业或身份的单数名词前通常要用不定冠词，所以选A。
49. C. price前加定冠词表特指。句意为“如果你买10个以上，他们会从那个价钱中减掉20便士”。
50. B. 因为division后有介词短语between…and…的限制，这是特指的，所以要用the。又因为concern作“所关切的事”解是可数名词，所以前面要用冠词。
