语言知识
1.These issues were discussed at length during the meeting. The underlined part means________.(D)
A. eventually
B. subsequently
C. lastly
D. fully
解析：考查固定搭配。这些问题在会议上被充分讨论过了。其中画线部分的意思是________。at length指“详尽地；最后”，at length在本句中修饰动词discuss，因此此处的含义应为“详尽地，充分地”。A项eventually意为“最后，终于”；B项subsequently意为“随后，后来”；C项lastly意为“最后，终于”；D项fully意为“充分地”。对比四个选项，D项fully符合题意，故选D。
2.There are only ten apples left in the baskets,________the spoilt ones.(A)
A. not counting
B. not to count
C. don’t count
D. having not counted
解析：由于句子前后没有连词连接，因此该处动词要用非谓语形式，句子的时态为一般现在时，所以表示方式的状语要用现在分词短语，故选A。
3.A great amount of work has gone into________the Cathedral to its previous splendour.(B)
A. refreshing
B. restoring
C. renovating
D. renewing
解析：refresh意为“使精神振作”；restore意为“修复”，常与文物等连用，含有复原的意思；renovate意为“革新”；renew意为“翻新”。根据句意“为了使大教堂恢复昔日的恢宏，人们做了大量的修复工作”可知，本题选B。
4.He said nothing at all, but his eyes spoke________him.(D)
A. for
B. up
C. out
D. against
解析：考查动词短语辨析。他虽然没说什么，但他的眼睛却出卖了他。speak for意为“代表…说”；speak up意为“大声说”；speak out意为“大声说出”；speak against意为“做不利于…的陈述”。根据句意可知选D。
5.The old lady has developed a________cough which cannot be cured completely in a short time.(C)
A. perpetual
B. permanent
C. chronic
D. sustained
解析：考查形容词词义辨析。那位老太太患有慢性咳嗽，不能在短期内彻底治愈。perpetual意为“永久的”；permanent意为“长期的”；chronic意为“慢性的”；sustained意为“持续不变的”。结合句中的cannot be cured completely in a short time可知，不能在短时间内治愈的病一般为慢性病，所以C项为最佳答案。
6.________there is little we can do to modify the wheat here, we can at least know what kind of weather to expect.(C)
A. Since
B. When
C. While
D. Unless
解析：考查状语从句。尽管我们不能改良这里的小麦，但我们至少可以知道该期待什么样的天气。while除表示时间外，还可表示转折、让步，意为“尽管，虽然”。该句中其他选项不具备此意。
7.John’s score on the test is the highest in the class; he________last night.(C)
A. must study
B. should have studied
C. must have studied
D. is sure to study
解析：考查情态动词的用法。约翰的考试分数全班最高；他昨天晚上一定学习了表示对过去某一动作行为的肯定猜测要用must have done这一结构，意思是“一定…”，故C为正确答案。
8.It was not until he took up fishing that he________to relax.(B)
A. had been beginning
B. began
C. had begun
D. beginning
解析：考查强调句。直到他开始钓鱼，他才放松下来、此句为强调句，所强调的时间状语从句部分的动作几乎和主句的动作同时发生，时间状语从句的谓语动词为过去时，因而主句的谓语动词也应采用过去时。因此B为正确答案。
9.It makes me sick to think of his highly________manners.(D)
A. artistic
B. artful
C. artless
D. artificial
解析：考查形容词词义辨析。我一想到他假惺惺的样子就恶心。artistic意为“艺术的，有美感的”；artful意为“狡猾的”，尤指使用欺诈手段实现目\\
10.To________is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share the enjoyment.(A)
A. conserve
B. conceive
C. convert
D. contrive
解析：考查动词词义辨析。保存就是节省和保护，把我们自己欣赏的东西以良好的状态保留下来，以便别人也能分享。conserve意为“保存”；conceive意为“构想”；convert意为“转换”；contrive意为“发明，设计”。由句中的to save and protect可知，A项正确。
11.It is difficult to tell whether a man is angry or not by________looking at his face.(C)
A. right
B. barely
C. just
D. hardly
解析：考查副词词义辨析。仅仅看一个人的脸很难判断这个人是否生气了。right作副词时的意思是“径直地”，一般修饰介词短语，不直接修饰动词；barely是表示否定意义的副词，意思是“几乎不能”，不符合句子的意思；hardly也是表示否定意义的副词。意思是“几乎不”，也可排除；just的意思是“只，单单，仅仅”，可直接修饰动词。故选C。
12.Beryl hardly ever goes to________the cinema
