請(qǐng)從以下四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中挑出最符合題意的一個(gè)選項(xiàng)：

　　Congressional investigations play important function for lawmakers: to inform the _____ of the state affairs and to arouse public interests in national issues. A. citizenry B. citizenshipC. citizensD. citizenly

　　參考譯文：A. citizenry

　　解析：這一題給人最大困惑在于四個(gè)選項(xiàng)很相似，是以citizen為詞根，加了不同的后綴。因此，要解答這題，一是要區(qū)分出這四個(gè)選項(xiàng)詞的意思，再根據(jù)全句的意思挑選出最合適的選項(xiàng)。我們先來(lái)看出現(xiàn)頻次比較少的citizenry。這個(gè)詞的意思是“全體國(guó)民;全體州居民國(guó);全體市民”，即The people living in a country, state, or city can be referred to as the citizenry. 例如：He used the medium of radio when he wanted to enlist public support or reassure the citizenry./他利用廣播媒介來(lái)獲得公眾支持或安定民心。Citizenship的意思是“國(guó)籍;公民身份 ” 即If you have citizenship of a country, you are legally accepted as belonging to it. 例如：After 15 years in the USA, he has finally decided to apply for American citizenship./在美國(guó)生活了15年之后，他終于決定申請(qǐng)美國(guó)國(guó)籍。Citizens是citizen的復(fù)數(shù)形式，citizen意思是“公民;國(guó)民”，即Someone who is a citizen of a particular country is legally accepted as belonging to that country. 例如：The life of ordinary citizens began to change. /老百姓的生活開(kāi)始發(fā)生變化。Citizenly在形式是citizen的副詞形式，不過(guò)沒(méi)有具體的意思。從這一題的意思上看，國(guó)會(huì)的調(diào)查起了兩個(gè)非常重要的作用，一個(gè)是展現(xiàn)國(guó)家事務(wù)的歸屬性，即“state affairs”是全體國(guó)民的事，而不是單個(gè)公民的事，二是激起民眾對(duì)公眾事務(wù)的興趣。因此，citizenry更符合題目的立意 。

　　請(qǐng)從以下四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出一個(gè)最符合題目意思的選項(xiàng)：

　　"Never for a second," the girl says "_____ my father would come to my rescue."A. I doubtedB. do I doubtC. I have doubted D. Did I doubt.

　　參考答案：D. Did I doubt

　　解析：這一題有一定的迷惑性，也就是the girl says作為挺插入語(yǔ)放到了一個(gè)句子之中。如果將這個(gè)插入語(yǔ)刪除，整個(gè)句子就應(yīng)該是：Never for a second _____ my father would come to my rescue. 這樣就很清晰了，對(duì)吧?當(dāng)句首有表示否定的副詞或是短語(yǔ)時(shí)，句子就要用倒裝句的句型。同時(shí)，整個(gè)句子的時(shí)態(tài)根據(jù)would come來(lái)判定，應(yīng)該是過(guò)去里。在這四個(gè)選項(xiàng)里，符合這兩要求的選項(xiàng)B和D中，只要選項(xiàng)D符合要求。題外話，為什么要將the girl says去除掉呢?因?yàn)樵谀骋粋�(gè)瞬間將選項(xiàng)C定為答案了~~而去掉這個(gè)干擾因素之后，整個(gè)句型就不一樣了。

　　請(qǐng)從以下四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中挑出最符合題意的一個(gè)：

　　When I found that my 19-year old son had got himeself a credit I immediately demanded that he ___ the card __ to me. A. give…upB. give... in C. hand...outD. hand...over

　　參考答案：D. hand...over

　　解析：從同學(xué)給出的答案來(lái)看，主要是C和D。當(dāng)然，答案更多是D，即hand...over。這個(gè)主要是在于區(qū)別hand out與hand over之間的差別。或者說(shuō)，表達(dá)“交給”的是哪里一個(gè)。hand sth. out并不是字面上的所謂“交出來(lái)”，而是“分發(fā)”，即If you hand things out to people, you give one or more to each person in a group. 例如：One of my jobs was to hand out the prizes./我的職責(zé)之一是分發(fā)獎(jiǎng)品。Hand sth over的意思則是“遞交”，即If you hand something over to someone, you pass it to them. 例如：He also handed over a letter of apology from the Prime Minister. /他還遞交了一封首相寫的道歉信。

　　_________ for a long time, the fields are all dried up. A. There has been no rainB. Having no rainC. There having been no rainD. There being no rain

　　參考答案：C. There having been no rain

　　解析：這題的考點(diǎn)是什么呢?從語(yǔ)法的角度來(lái)看，自然就是句子的主謂賓結(jié)構(gòu)的位置及搭配了。在這一句里，主謂賓很明確，就是the fields+are+all dried up，而之前的分句如果沒(méi)有引導(dǎo)的連詞的話，那只能是一個(gè)獨(dú)立主句，即there來(lái)引導(dǎo)。另外，分句與主句在時(shí)態(tài)上有承續(xù)關(guān)系。時(shí)態(tài)上的承續(xù)，則要從語(yǔ)義的角度來(lái)審視。no rain與dried up有必然關(guān)系，即no rain在先，dried up在后，因此no rain要用完成時(shí)態(tài)。

　　請(qǐng)從以下四個(gè)選項(xiàng)里挑出最符合句子意思的選項(xiàng)：

　　Planets here show how and to what we are attached, and the degree of our __________.A. weightB. relativity C. gravityD. possessiveness

　　參考答案：D. possessiveness

　　解析：從語(yǔ)法的角度來(lái)看，the degree與how and to what we are attached成并列關(guān)系，因而在語(yǔ)義層面則是指向同一意思，而表達(dá)方式不一樣。因此，從語(yǔ)義理解，星座(planet)與我們的所屬性關(guān)系(ho how and to what we attached)，其實(shí)就是possessiveness的意思了。

　　請(qǐng)從以下四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中挑出最符合題意的一個(gè)選項(xiàng)：

　　They were ___ in their scientific research, not knowing what happened just outside their lab. A. dippedB. drownedC. immersedD. submerged

　　參考答案：C. immersed

　　解析：immersed的意思是“使沉浸(于);使專心(于);使深陷(于)”，即If you immerse yourself in something that you are doing, you become completely involved in it. 例如：Since then I've lived alone and immersed myself in my career./自那以后,我一直一個(gè)人生活,全身心投入我的事業(yè)當(dāng)中。通常用于被動(dòng)態(tài)語(yǔ)態(tài)的句子，或是在表示這個(gè)意思時(shí)，可用作過(guò)去分詞的方式。不過(guò)，dip也有相似的意思，即If you dip into a book, you have a brief look at it without reading or studying it seriously. 例如：...a chance to dip into a wide selection of books on Buddhism. /博覽佛教群書的機(jī)會(huì)。但很明顯，dip比immser的程度更為淺一些。

　　請(qǐng)從以下四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中挑出最符合題意的一個(gè)選項(xiàng)：

　　The general manager is said to have arrived back from London, where he ____ some European business partners. A. would meetB. is meetingC. meetsD. had met

　　參考譯文：D. had met

　　解析：這一題的重點(diǎn)在于理清句子成分之間的時(shí)間關(guān)系。To have arrived back from London 與"x meet" some European business partners之間的時(shí)間關(guān)系是什么呢?關(guān)鍵詞是where，即London。也就是說(shuō)，這位總經(jīng)理回來(lái)之前是在倫敦出差，而在倫敦出差的時(shí)候，他與歐洲的合作伙伴們會(huì)面。因此，meet的行為是在arrive之前發(fā)生的。to have arrived的指一種預(yù)測(cè)，即表述人在說(shuō)話時(shí)時(shí)預(yù)計(jì)這位總經(jīng)理要回答，而實(shí)際的情況并不可知，于是用了將來(lái)完成時(shí)，但很明顯，在說(shuō)話人之前，總經(jīng)理已在倫敦了，即要用had met。
