參考答案

1.C

2.B解析：cuts“裁減”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱點”；imports“進口”，故正確選項為B。

3.D解析：which修飾非限定性定語從句，指代前邊一句話。本題涉及句法知識——簡單句、并列句和復合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(簡單句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(復合句)

4.C

5.B

6.A解析：本題考虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the廣引導的從句中，謂語動詞應用“should+認”，should可以省去，再結合語態(tài)，故A項正確。本句大意為：他們要求所有的必要文件都必須在月底之前交到校長辦公室。

7.C

8.D

9.B

10.C

11.D解析：上句責備瑪麗應該做作業(yè)而不是坐到那兒看電視，下句是瑪麗對媽媽責備的一種辯解：“你說過電視是有教育意義的?！彼訢項正確。

12.B解析：本題考查動詞固定搭配的用法。deprive后常接介詞of，表示剝奪什么。

13.D

14.C解析：notonly…butalso連接主語時，謂語動詞根據就近原則由butalso后的成分來決定。TomandMary是兩個人，所以動詞用復數形式。

15.B解析：theeducationsystem是主語，謂語動詞應用單數；thedesiredresults意為“期望的結果”。

16.B

17.B

18.D解析：本題考查動詞搭配。doone'shomework“做作業(yè)”；makemistakes“犯錯誤”。句意為：做作業(yè)，還要保證別犯錯誤。

19.A本句考查兩個并列句之間的連接的詞。題干的意思是：“氣球能夠浮在空氣中正如船能夠浮在海面上一樣?！痹谒膫€選項中，只有A項的justas有“正如，猶如”的意思。故選A。

20.B解析：takemeasures意思為“采取措施”，本句應用被動語態(tài)。
