28、.單項(xiàng)填空1C句意為：到他認(rèn)識(shí)到已經(jīng)中計(jì)的時(shí)候，再做任何事情也就不濟(jì)于事了。根據(jù)句意，可知本句講的是現(xiàn)在的事情，故用現(xiàn)在時(shí)，排除B、D兩項(xiàng)，本句強(qiáng)調(diào)“已經(jīng)中計(jì)”，用完成體，故答案為C。2Da failure一個(gè)失敗者；end in failure以失敗告終。3A隨著年齡的增長(zhǎng)，你會(huì)獲得更多經(jīng)驗(yàn)。4Abe/get caught in是固定搭配，指“突然碰上；突然遭受”，多用于被動(dòng)結(jié)構(gòu)。5C整個(gè)地區(qū)被大雪封閉了。cut off使 (人、城鎮(zhèn)、地區(qū))封閉孤立。6DA、B項(xiàng)為及物動(dòng)詞，不符合題意，manage不符合題意；react回應(yīng)。7C根據(jù)前面的looked here and there判斷，我們

29、的老師“好像”在找東西，所以用as if。8C考查時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)態(tài)。根據(jù)這兩個(gè)學(xué)生現(xiàn)在正站在老師辦公室門口，可知現(xiàn)在正在受罰，從而推斷在課上小聲說(shuō)話發(fā)生在過(guò)去。9B考查形容詞辨析。particular挑剔的。be particularabout對(duì)挑剔的。special特殊的，特別的，專用的；unusual不同尋常的，獨(dú)特的；especial特別的，特殊的。10D考查倍數(shù)的表達(dá)和省略。根據(jù)句子所要表達(dá)的含義，but后補(bǔ)充完整為：but is three times as expensive as ours/our apartment。11B考查would rather的用法。would rather意

30、為“寧愿，寧可”，后接動(dòng)詞原形，故選B。12B考查短語(yǔ)辨析。cut off切斷。句意為：由于修路，電流被切斷了，整座大樓一片漆黑。cut up切碎；cut out切去，省略，停止；cut down砍倒，削減，刪節(jié)。13Alead/live a simple/easy/hard life過(guò)生活，當(dāng)life有定語(yǔ)修飾時(shí)，前面要用a限定；make a/ones fortunemake money發(fā)財(cái)致富。14B考查介詞的用法及非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的用法。介詞by表程度，reaching短語(yǔ)在句中作結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)。不定式也可作結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)，但常與only或just連用，表示一種意想不到的結(jié)果。15Bonly to do

32、貫看，本題用were：誰(shuí)能想到，城里的玉米粉蒸肉在圣誕節(jié)前夕都賣完了呢？可是這些玉米粉蒸肉的確被賣完了。4B在幾家店鋪都沒(méi)有買到玉米粉蒸肉，而他下定決心一定要買一份帶回家，于是他開(kāi)車跑遍了El Paso，并來(lái)到這最后一家賣玉米粉蒸肉的店鋪。5D語(yǔ)境提到“45分鐘之后，從鍋上下來(lái)”，可見(jiàn)此處表示這家店鋪的玉米粉蒸肉再過(guò)45分鐘就能出鍋了，用(be)due表示“預(yù)期發(fā)生”。6C這里用take ones place表示“就位，就座”：于是，他在人群后面開(kāi)始排隊(duì)等候購(gòu)買。7D從語(yǔ)境的連貫判斷選D，remove“移開(kāi)，脫下，去掉”：他注意到，在他前面的那位女士把自己的外套脫下來(lái)，給自己凍得發(fā)抖的孩子披上。8C沒(méi)過(guò)多久，這位母親自己也凍得瑟瑟發(fā)抖。這里用shake表示“發(fā)抖”，與前面的shivering呼應(yīng)，而freeze表示“凍僵”，不符合語(yǔ)境敘述的排隊(duì)買東西的場(chǎng)景。9C從語(yǔ)境和選項(xiàng)判斷選C“猶豫，遲疑”：看見(jiàn)這番情景，Carl Fenter遲疑片刻，將自己的外套脫下來(lái)，遞給這位母親。10A面對(duì)這樣的情景，這位母親當(dāng)然是非常感激，而不是B.讓人尊敬的C.絕望的D.羞愧的。11A當(dāng)隊(duì)伍開(kāi)始向前移動(dòng)(玉米粉蒸肉終于出鍋了)，微笑的人們帶著熱騰騰的玉米粉蒸肉走出店鋪，他們一起歡呼雀躍。12D前面的人群終于散盡，輪到他購(gòu)買了。13D他走進(jìn)店鋪，向柜臺(tái)慢慢地挪過(guò)去。
