答案及解析

1.正确答案：D答案解析：try to do：试图做某事。

2.正确答案：D答案解析：本题考查的是practice后面要跟动词的ing形式。

3.正确答案：C答案解析：先行词是in that period of time，所以关系词应选择when.

4.正确答案：B答案解析：in which the above subjects are to be covered是report的定语从句。which指代先行词report，in用于与report搭配。

5.正确答案：B答案解析：本题考查的是定语从句的用法。先行词是the reason;引导词why表示原因。

6.正确答案：B答案解析：这后半句为强调主语的强调句，意思为这部分最吸引注意。答案为B.

7.正确答案：C答案解析：let up：停止，放松;get up：起床;put up：举起，抬起;rise up：起义，叛变。

8.正确答案：C答案解析：译文：尽管她的健康不佳，她仍与我们在村里工作了一星期。in spite of意思为“尽管”，相当于despite，表让步。

9.正确答案：A答案解析：本句为带有修饰主语的定语从句的主从句，而在主句中缺少的不定式与定语从句中的successful相唿应。

10.正确答案：B答案解析：本题考查词组辨析。take over：接任;接管;接收。

11.正确答案：D

答案解析：back down：让步，退却;放弃。

12.正确答案：A

答案解析：本题考查的是固定短语的搭配，regardless of表示“不管，不顾”的意思。

13.正确答案：D

答案解析：本题考查separate的用法。separate通常与介词from连用。

14.正确答案：C

答案解析：rely与depend多作为不及物动词来使用，所以后面如果有宾语，就应该用rely on或depend on.所以答案A和B错误。consist of意思是“由……组成”，不符合句意。所以本题答案是C.

15.正确答案：D

答案解析：译文：去年制定了一个计划，将要在这个城市的这个地区修建几条公路。此题考查同位语从句。

16.正确答案：C

答案解析：译文：他的最佳电影，曾得多个奖项，是关于马丁?路德?金的生平的。此题考查非限制性定语从句，故用which.

18.正确答案：C

答案解析：译文：她感冒了，因为昨晚她完全忘记关窗户了。此题考查动词forget的用法。forget to do sth意为“忘记去做某事(没有做)”;forget doing sth意为“忘记已经做过的事”。

19.正确答案：A

答案解析：it用做主语指一段时间four years，since的含义为“自从”，引导时间状语从句。注意不要和强调句型混淆。

20.正确答案：A
