语言知识
1.Let me ______ you I will use whatever force is necessary to restore order.(B)
A. insure
B. assure
C. ensure
D. sure
解析：let me assure you或I can assure you是习惯用法，表示“我保证，相信我”，用于强调后面所说的话或事的真实性；insure表示“给……上保险”；ensure表示“确保，保证”，主语一般是物；sure是形容词，表示“肯定的，有把握的”。根据句意可知应选B项assure。
2.Henry does write his report very carefully, but I find that ______ of his two solutions is correct.(D)
A. all
B. none
C. both
D. neither
解析：由转折词but可推出，“我”不赞同亨利提出的两个解决方案，可首先排除A、C；另外主语是all of his solutions／both his solutions时不能用is。none是指“三者或三者以上都不”，neither指“两者都不”，这里答案应为D。
3.Good love makes you see the whole world from one person while bad love makes you ______ the whole world for one person.(D)
A. resign
B. surrender
C. release
D. abandon
解析：好的爱情是你通过一个人看到整个世界，坏的爱情是你为了一个人舍弃整个世界。A resign指“放弃某项官职，放弃某项声明”，例如：He resigned his post last month．他上个月辞去了职位。B．surrender指经过斗争或抵抗后被迫“放弃”、“投降”，例如：They surrendered the fort tothe enemy．他们把要塞拱手让给了敌人。C．release指“释放，解除，发表”，例如：He was released from the prison yesterday．昨天他从监狱中被释放了出来。D．abandon指“放弃”，尤指放弃一些无形的东西，例如：She abandoned her hope of being anurse．她放弃了成为护士的希望。注：该句表达的是因爱上一个糟糕的人而放弃整个世界，the whole world是无形的东西，选D恰当。
4.Chances of getting the job were slim, so the young man felt _______ about the future.(A)
A. gloomy
B. shady
C. shadowy
D. obscure
解析：得到这份工作的机会很小，所以这位青年人感到前途暗淡。A．gloomy指“昏暗的，令人沮丧的”，该词既可形容前景暗淡不景气，也可形容人的悲观情绪(如本题)，例如：He feels gloomy about the future．他觉得前途渺茫。B．shady指“背阴的，阴凉的”，例如：This is a shady avenue．这是条林阴大道。C．shadowy指“朦胧的，模糊不清的，阴凉的”，例如：She saw a shadowy figure through the blind．她透过帘子看到一个模糊的身影。D．obscure“模糊的，难解的，不出名的”，指某事物的意思含糊不清，或因知识缺乏而难解的，例如：His reasons remain obscure．他的理由不清楚。
5._______her notable wealth, she still keeps working hard and never relaxes her efforts.(B)
A. Instead of
B. For all
C. While
D. As long as
解析：此题考查让步状语引导词。for all后接名词时，可以引导让步状语，表示“尽管”，符合本题句意，为正确答案。根据空格后名词notable wealth可首先排除C、D，因为while和as long as其后通常接完整的句子。但while也可用于让步状语，表示“尽管”。
6.Which of the following words can NOT be used to complete \\(C)
A. right now
B. at this point
C. too much
D. at the moment
解析：right now意为“现在”，at this point意为“此时，这个时候”，at the moment意为“此时”，均可填入句子中。too much指“太多”，不合逻辑。
7.The old couple took a very long time to ______ the loss of their son.(A)
A. get over
B. get away
C. get off
D. get across
解析：这对老夫妇花了很长时间才从丧子之痛中恢复过来。A. get over“(从疾病、打击中)恢复过来，克服”B．get away“走开。逃脱”C．get off“(从……)下来，下车”D．get across“(使)通过，(使)被理解”
8.I’m surprised they are no longer on speaking terms. It’s not like either of them to bear a______.(C)
A. disgust
B. curse
C. grudge
D. hatred
解析：名词辨析题。grudge表示“怨恨；恶意；积怨”，bear a grudge是习惯搭配，表示“含有怨恨”，符合题意；disgust表示“厌恶，憎恶”；curse表示“诅咒，咒骂”；hatred表示“憎恨”。
9.Firms that use computers have found that the number of staff _____ is needed for quality control can be substantially reduced.(D)
A. whose
B. as
C. what
D. that
解析：题中修饰staff的定语从句中缺少主语，而that既可连接定语从句，又可充当从句中的主语，用来指人，符合题意。
10.In the present economic ______ we cannot make even greater progress than previously.(C)
A. air
B. area
C. climate
D. mood
