参考答案及解析

31. C动名词being 做students 的逻辑谓语, 相当于…students… being unable to understand what they read。整个动名词短语做of的宾语，所以只能选C。

32. D这是一个含蓄虚拟条件句，前半部分假设，后半部分真实，因此应选could have caught，意为“我本来能赶上火车的，可是那天早上我睡过头了”。区别这类含蓄虚拟条件句的关键词是but。

33. D didn’t have to do it“不用非得洗(碗)”，符合句意。

34. B not…any more than…“与……同样不……”。本句意为：“摄入的维生素超过了身体所需要的量并不能使身体更好地发挥作用, 就像往油灯中倒入过多的油不能使其更亮一样。” no more…than 与not…any more than同义, 但句中前半部分已有not, 此处再填no是错误的。

35. B此题测试的是平行结构问题, 即在并列或比较结构中，并列或比较的成分在语法形式上应一致。 如该句中应为：He spends as much time idling about as he spends (much) time studying.句中does 代替spends, idling与studying平行。

36. D句子用的是just as…so…句型，后半部分要求倒装，所以应选D。

37. C where引导定语从句，在从句中做地点状语，相当于from the top floor。

38. D whoever引导名词性从句，并在从句中做主语，用来指人。they thought 是插入成分。

39. C in that“是因为”，引导原因状语从句，符合句意。by which表示手段;so that引导目的状语从句;provided that引导条件状语从句。

40. A made to do so是it is made to do so 的省略形式。unless是连词，应连接句子，所以除A以外的其他几个选项都是错误的。

41. B此处用过去完成时，是因为本句意指“到那次敲门，已经是第三次有人打搅我了”。句中用词was和that evening都说明指过去发生的事，到过去某一时刻为止已出现的情况用过去完成时。

42. A which在句中是关系代词，要引导一个句子，而B、C、D三个选项中都没有谓语，因此不是句子。本句意为：“政府同意提供服务设施，经费由居民在十年期间偿还。”

43. B there being 做介词of 的宾语，如果是介词for，则用there to be。

44. B此句是含蓄虚拟语气句，暗含的假设条件为：if they hadn’t happened to be short of hands。故应选B。

45. C may have done“(不管我们白天)可能做了些什么”，符合句意。should have done“本该做(但实际未做)”;would have done表示与过去相反的假设;must have done是对已发生的情况作肯定推测。

46. A句中too late相当于too late to catch the train，所以选其他词不合适。

47. C rather than 表示对比，在意思上前后形成对照：take advantage of your generosity…rather than become appreciative of your kindness意为“利用你的慷慨，而不是理解你的好意”。另外，rather than在结构上起并列作用，使take advantage与become appreciative平行。

48. C the one替代the age，还原为：…but must write for the age in which he lives and the ages which are to follow。

49. B in which在定语从句中做状语，相当于in the balance of nature (many square miles of…)。

50. C that引导case的同位语从句，其他连接词都不合适。

51. B for连接一个原因分句，对前面的推测做原因上的解释。请考生记住：无论从逻辑推理还是从语法规则上看，只要前面是表示推测的句子，后面大都用for连接后一句，而不用其他连词。

52. D时间状语thus far“到目前为止”，与现在完成时连用，据此排除B、C。比较从句完整的结构应该是…than the thought which has been given thus far，可以把than 看做关系代词在从句中做主语，也可以把主语看做是省略了。

53. A题句由于主语较长，采用了倒装结构，可还原为：the nation-wide movement to support the Kampuchean people in their heroic struggle against the aggression of the Vietnamese is of great significance。movement要求不定式做定语，其他选项均不符合语法规则。

54. A looking for…分词短语做came的伴随状语，如果选to look for做目的状语的话，不该有逗号。

55. B动词request要求其主语从句、宾语从句或同位语从句中谓语动词用(should+)原形表示虚拟。该句中that引导的是主语从句。

56. D can’t have done 表示对已发生的情况作否定推测“一定不是/没……”，根据句意只能选D。

57. A none but相当于no one but“只有”，通常接表示人的词;nothing but接表示物的词;none other than和no other than两者的意思都是“(不是别的)……正是……”，与本题全句意思不符。

58. A as在句中是关系代词，引导非限定性定语从句，其先行词是precautions，其他几个选项都不是关系代词，所以是错误的。

59. C unless“除非”，从主从句的逻辑关系上看是惟一正确选择。句意：“假如发生了水灾或地震，且火车、汽车又无法通至灾区，除非用飞机空投，否则那里的人们就会饿死。”

60. Bt o become在句中做desire的定语，意为“成为一个著名作家的愿望”，其他结构一般不做desire的定语。

61. B不定式to have been working…做主语scientist的补足语，用完成进行式表示：“这个科学家已对如此复杂的问题研究了大约十年，并且还要继续研究下去。”

62. C needn’t have done sth.表示做了不必做的事，此句意为：“你真不必写这么长的文章，老师告诉我们只写200个词，可你写了300个词。”

63. AB、C选项之所以错，主要是由于long的位置不对，应为：B. Being long used…;C Having long been used…。句子前半部分是状语，故D也不对。由此可见A是惟一正确的选择。

64. C other than 的意思相当于except，常用在否定词之后，如nobody other than…，nothing other than等。本句中与no在一起连用，意为“只有在英国……”。it has been said是插入语。

65. A句中的第一个空白处需要一个引导名词性从句的关系代词，在从句中做write 的宾语;第二个空白处要填一个修饰way的定语从句的关系代词，因此只能选A。注意: 先行词是way, 引导定语从句的关系代词一定不能用how, 可以用in which, 可以用that, 也可以省略不用。

66. A before应该理解成“(几百年过去了,人们) 才……”; 如果用after应该是…after centuries passed they took note of the fact…; 如果用until, 应该是they didn’t take note of the fact that…until centuries passed。

67. A分词短语做伴随状语, my footsteps与echo的关系是主动的,因此用现在分词。另外, 分词做伴随状语表示与谓语动词的动作同时发生, 所以用其一般式。

68. D
