字號(hào):

    C.has gone
    D.will have gone
    [譯文] ——我能在今晚五點(diǎn)鐘和威列姆經(jīng)理談?wù)剢?
    ——對(duì)不起,到那時(shí)威列姆經(jīng)理就已開(kāi)會(huì)去了。
    答案為D.本題考點(diǎn):將來(lái)完成時(shí)的用法。根據(jù)題干中出現(xiàn)的before then,應(yīng)用將來(lái)完成時(shí)
    2.Mrs. Smith was so _____ about everything that no servants could please her.
    A.specific
    B.special
    C.precise
    D.particular
    [答案] D
    [譯文] Smith夫人對(duì)于所有事情都很挑剔,所以沒(méi)有一個(gè)仆人能讓她高興。
    [解析] Be particular about sth.表示“對(duì)……挑剔,吹毛求疵”。
    3.He never arrives on time and my _____ is that he feels the meetings are useless.
    A.preference
    B.conference
    C.inference
    D.reference
    [答案] C
    [譯文] 他從沒(méi)有準(zhǔn)時(shí)到會(huì),所以我的判斷是他認(rèn)為會(huì)議沒(méi)有用。
    [解析] 本題的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都有"ence"的后綴把一個(gè)動(dòng)詞變?yōu)槊~,所以我們只要背了它們的動(dòng)詞詞根的意思,這四個(gè)詞的意思就容易找出來(lái)了。Preference表示“喜歡,喜好”;conference的意思是“會(huì)議,大會(huì)”;reference表示“參考,指出”;而inference表示“推斷,推論”,符合題義。
    4.The little girl was so frightened that she just wouldn't _____ her grip on my arm.
    A.loosen
    B.remove
    C.relieve
    D.dismiss
    [答案] A
    [譯文] 這個(gè)小女孩非常害怕,她一直抓著我的胳膊不放。
    [解析] 本題有兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)容易混淆:A)loosen和C)relieve.Relieve的意思是“減緩導(dǎo)致……的減輕或緩和;免于痛苦,脫離痛苦,焦慮或者苦惱;救濟(jì),為……提供幫助或援助”,不能和grip搭配;而loosen one's grip表示“放開(kāi)手”。
    5.The ship's generator broke down, and the pumps had to be operated _____ instead of mechanically.
    A.artificially
    B.automatically
    C.manually
    D.synthetically
    [答案] C
    [譯文] 船的發(fā)電機(jī)壞了,所以需要手動(dòng)操作水泵而不能機(jī)械操作。
    [解析] 這也更加要求我們要“溫故而知新”。因?yàn)閕nstead of后面是mechanically(機(jī)械地),所以我們只要找到它的反義詞就行了,答案C)manually手動(dòng)符合題義。
    6.This is what you should bear in mind: Don't _____ a salary increase before you actually get it.
    A.hang on
    B.draw on
    C.wait on
    D.count on
    [答案] D
    [譯文] 這是你應(yīng)該記住的:在得到漲工資以前不要指望它。
    [解析] 本題考察四個(gè)帶有on的動(dòng)詞詞組。Hang on意思較多,有“糾纏,緊緊握住某物;堅(jiān)持不放棄;堅(jiān)持不懈;打電話時(shí)不掛斷;稍待等待一會(huì)兒時(shí)間”;draw on穿上, 戴上(靴子, 手套等);吸收, 利用; 憑, 靠;動(dòng)用;向……支取;逗引(某人)開(kāi)口說(shuō)話;招來(lái), 招致;接近,靠近;wait on滿足……的需要;服侍;count on表示“依賴,依靠”,符合上下文。
