【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：他突然在一個下雨的晚上回來了=因?yàn)閚ight前有修飾語rainy，故用on。

56.C解析：首先應(yīng)判定該空白處在句子中所處的位置，即賓語位置。注意英文中定冠詞the的用法。因experience后已有限定性修飾詞oftheworld，其范圍便得以確定，因此用the來表示這一“確定”的概念。world的通常用法為：anewworld，peopleallovertheworld，aneventthatshooktheworld，alltheworld，intheworld。

57.shortage

58.unreasonable

59.D

60.C參考譯文，布朗先生在城里擁有一個女裝店。他雇了三名女店員。此題考查合成名詞的用法?！芭b店”中的女裝用"dress"，不可數(shù)，故排除A和D。由man和woman構(gòu)成的合成名詞，里面的所有成分全部都要變成復(fù)數(shù)，故排除B，選C。2022年黑龍江省雙鴨山市成考專升本英語學(xué)校:________班級:________姓名:________考號:________
