语言知识
1.For some time now, world leaders________out the necessity for agreement on arms reduction.(B)
A. had been pointing
B. have been pointing
C. were pointing
D. pointed
解析：一段时间以来，世界各国领袖一直指出有必要在武器削减方面达成共识。由时间状语For some time now可知，句中的动作发生在过去，一直延续到现在，而且还将持续下去，故用现在完成进行时，故选B。
2.If only I________play the guitar as well as you!(B)
A. would
B. could
C. should
D. might
解析：要是我弹吉他能和你弹得一样好，那该多好啊！if only引起的感叹句需要使用虚拟语气，表示对现在或将来的愿望，谓语动词要用过去式（be用were）或would/could/might+动词原形，而could为can的过去时，因此，本题应该选择B。
3.________dull he may be, he is certainly a very successful top executive.(D)
A. Although
B. Whatever
C. As
D. However
解析：无论他有多木讷，他都是一名非常成功的高级执行官。“however+形容词或副词”引导让步状语从句，故选项D正确。
4.It was________we had hoped.(C)
A. more a success than
B. a success more than
C. as much of a success as
D. a success as much as
解析：be much of a／an，表示“了不起的，称得上的”，可用于as…as结构或more…than结构：as much of a/an…或more of a/an…than。本句可还原成非比较句It was much of a success。
5.You must fire________incompetent assistant of yours.(C)
A. the
B. an
C. that
D. whichever
解析：你必须解雇你那位不称职的助手。本题考查双重属格所修饰名词的限定词。双重属格所修饰的名词可以跟this，that等指示限定词连用，表示爱憎褒贬等感情色彩，本题中must fire和incompetent表达了憎恶的情感，故选C。双重属格所修饰的名词前确实可带a any，some等表示非确定特指的限定词，但不表达爱憎褒贬等色彩，故B不如C合适。
6.Just for today, I will feel happy I am at work alive and well, and not in a hospital________surgery.(B)
A. waiting
B. awaiting
C. waited for
D. awaiting for
解析：就在今天，我会感到幸福，因为我现在健康地活着，还在上班，而不是躺在医院里等着做手术。awaiting surgery为现在分词短语，作伴随状语。await是及物动词，直接跟宾语，wait是不及物动词，接宾语时需加介词for，故选项B正确。
7.His parents believed that he was a clever boy, but he wasn’t________in fact.(C)
A. kind
B. kind of
C. such
D. a such
解析：他父母相信他是个聪明的孩子，但事实上他并非如此。such在句中可作定语，修饰后面的名词，a，an通常放在such之后，故D不正确。同时，such可作指示代词，在句中可作表语，故C正确。短语kind of表示“稍微，有点”，后面接形容词，如：She is kind of strange. （她有一点怪。）
8.Which of the following italicized parts modifies a verb?(D)
A. Do you need me right now?
B. He runs very fast.
C. She speaks English fairly well.
D. Tom rather hates his dad.
解析：以下哪个斜体部分修饰动词？D项中的rather修饰动词hates，故D为答案。A项中的right修饰表时间的副词now。B项中的very修饰副词fast；C项中的fairly修饰副词well。
9.Which of the italicized parts indicates CONTRAST?(C)
A. Sit down and tell me all about it.
B. I missed supper and I’m starving!
C. Terry likes bread and Jack is fond of fruits.
D. He is somewhat selfish, and I don’t like this.
解析：下面哪句话的斜体部分表示对比？考查连词and的用法。A“坐下，告诉我关于它所有的一切”，and表先后顺序。B“我错过了晚餐，因此我快饿死了”，and表结果。C“特里喜欢面包，而杰克喜欢水果”，and表对比。D“他有点自私，我不喜欢”，and表评注。
10.It is to motivate employees in a growing organization than a declining one.(D)
A. more easier
B. much easy
C. much more easy
D. much easier
解析：在一个欣欣向荣的组织中激励员工要比在一个每况愈下的组织中激励员工容易得多。为了加强语气，在形容词或副词比较级前加表示程度的状语，常用的这些词为：much，far，even，still，a lot，a little，rather，any，a bit，a great deal等，故D项much easier正确。
11.She had a mild attack of hysteria________reaching Jamaica, when she realized her mother had actually died.(C)
A. of
B. by
C. on
D. with
解析：一到牙买加，当她得知母亲的确已去世时。她表现出轻度的歇斯底里。介词用法题。介词on后跟动名词可以表示时间，本句on reaching…等于when she reached…。
12.Which of the following italiciz
