16、地”，但一般只用于对自己(所要说的话)有信心。3.In winter drivers have trouble stopping their cars from _ on icy roads. 2000（分数：2.00）A.skatingB.skiddingC.slidingD.slipping解析：解析：skidding“(因为路面滑而向一侧)打滑”，尤指汽车或自行车的车轮失控打滑，符合题意，选B。skating“滑冰”，不符合题意；sliding“(顺畅地在光滑的表面上)滑行，滑动”；slipping“失足，滑倒”。4.She answered with an _ No to the re

17、quest that she attend the public hearing.2004（分数：2.00）A.eloquentB.effectiveC.emotionalD.emphatic解析：解析：emphatic表示“语气的加强”，在这句话里表示说话者的决心坚定，因此D为正确选项。eloquent“雄辩的”；effective“有效的”；emotional“易动感情的”。5.The motorist had to _ to avoid knocking the old woman down in the middle of the road.2000（分数：2.00）A.swerveB

19、l是及物动词，表示“驱散，驱逐，使消散”；disqualify也是及物动词，表示“使丧失资格”，用法是disqualify sbfromfor sthdoing sth；dismiss表示“解散，下课；开除，解职，使(或让)离开”，根据题意选项C正确。7.The novel contains some marvelously revealing _ of rural life in the 19th century.1997（分数：2.00）A.glancesB.glimpsesC.glaresD.gleams解析：解析：glance表示“一眼，看一眼”，强调粗略地或匆匆地扫一眼；glimps

20、e表示“一瞥，瞥见”，着重于无意识的一瞥，强调所看到的对象不是全貌；glare表示“强光，怒视，炫耀”等；gleam表示“微弱的闪光，一丝光线，瞬息的一现”等。根据句意，B正确。8.Please _ from smoking until the airplane is airborne.1997（分数：2.00）A.refrainB.preventC.resistD.restrain解析：解析：此处要表达“禁止”之义，refrain from表示“忍住不要，禁止”，因此A为正确答案。动词prevent也可以和from搭配使用，但是用法是prevent sbsthfrom doing sth，表

21、示“阻止(某人或某物)做某事”，放在此空中明显不符。resist的意思是“抵抗，反抗，忍得住”，是及物动词，后不能跟介词from。restrain表示“抑制，约束，阻止”，用法和prevent类似。9.Many people are _ to insect bites, and some even have to go to hospital. 2000（分数：2.00）A.insensitiveB.allergicC.sensibleD.infected解析：解析：很多人都对昆虫的叮咬过敏，因此allergic“过敏的”符合题意。insensiftve“不敏感的”；sensible“明智的”

24、stC.misguidedD.unaccepted解析：解析：unjustified表示“未被证明正确(正当)的”，“没有根据(理由)的”；unjust“不公平的”；misguided“被误导的，被引入歧途的”；unaccepted表示“未被接纳的，被拒绝的”。据上分析，unjustifled符合题意，选A。13.I think you can take a(n)_ language course to improve your English. 2003（分数：2.00）A.intermediateB.middleC.mediumD.mid解析：解析：intermediate“中级的”，指“

25、处于发展过程的中间阶段或状态”，如：intermediate interpretation course(中级口译课程)，符合题意。middle强调位置上的居中，如：the middle point on a line(一条线段的中点)。medium“程度中等”，有“普通、平庸”的含义，如：of medium height(中等身高)。14.Once a picture is proved to be a forgery, it becomes quite _.2004（分数：2.00）A.invaluableB.pricelessC.unworthyD.worthless解析：解析：四个选项

26、中只有worthless表示“没有价值的”，为正确选项，而invaluable和priceless都表示“极有价值的”，与句意刚好相反。unworthy“不值的，不足取的”，常作表语形容词，后跟介词of，如：a bad plan unworthy of our consideration(不值得我们考虑的糟糕计划)，在语义和语法上都不符合句子要求。15.The heat in summer is no less _ here in this mountain region.2005（分数：2.00）A.concentratedB.extensiveC.intenseD.intensive解析：

27、解析：concentrated“集中的，浓缩的”，从动词concentrate转化而来，侧重“集中、专注”；extensive“广阔的，广泛的”；intensive“密集的，加强的”，常用于指在短期内为达到某个目的而高强度地做某事；intense“强烈的，剧烈的”，常用来表达感情或感受的强度，如：intense heat(酷暑)，故C正确。16.The couple has donated a not _ amount of money to the foundation. 2006（分数：2.00）A.inconsiderableB.inconsiderateC.inaccurateD.in

28、comparable解析：解析：inconsiderable意思是“微小的，价值低的”；inconsiderate“不体贴的”；inaccurate“不准确的”；incomparable“无双的，不可比拟的”。只有A符合题意，可以修饰money。17.The first two stages in the development of civilized man were probably the invention of weapons and the discovery of fire, although nobody knows exactly when he acquired the

30、tyC.protectionD.secureness解析：解析：security是指“稳定，有保障”；safety是指“安全性”；protection是“保护、保卫”；secureness这种名词形式很少见，是指“稳定”的抽象意义。因此，只有A符合题意。19.The bar in the club is for the _ use of its members.2007（分数：2.00）A.extensiveB.exclusiveC.inclusiveD.comprehensive解析：解析：extensive“广泛的，大量的”；exclusive“排外的，唯一的，独有的”；inclusive

32、o learn the elements of journalismmath，故选A。21.On the road motorists should be aware of cyclists and be _ towards them.2008（分数：2.00）A.considerableB.consideringC.considerateD.considered解析：解析：空格前并列的成份aware of cyclists表明此处应填入表“体贴”之义的词，故答案为Considerate“体贴的，为他人考虑的”。considerable“相当大的，重要的”；considering为consid

33、er“考虑”的现在分词，不与介词towards连用；considered意为“被认为”，也不与towards连用。22.It was suggested that all government ministers should _ information on their financial interests.2004（分数：2.00）A.discoverB.uncoverC.tellD.disclose解析：解析：disclose“透露，披露”，强调自发地让某个不为人知的秘密公诸于众，符合题意。uncover“揭开，揭露”，与discover同义，强调发现某个被隐瞒的事实并揭露出来。tel

36、用途的)木板”。25.There has been a _ lack of communication between the union and the management.2002（分数：2.00）A.regretfulB.regrettableC.regrettingD.regretted解析：解析：需填入的词应表示说明工会和管理层之间缺乏交流是令人遗憾的，regrettable表示“令人遗憾的，可惜的”，一般用来描述某件事，故为答案。regretful表示“后悔的，惋惜的，感到遗憾的”，一般用来形容人，如：She was deeply regretful for what had h
