43、and now chief executive officer of Axon Sleep Research Laboratories, a company created by the students to develop their idea.(分数:40.00)(1).【C1】(分数:2.00)A.besideB.nearC.for D.around解析:解析:考查固定搭配。wait 为不及物动词,wait for 为固定搭配,意为“等待”,wait for sbto do sth意为“等待某人做某事”。故 Cfor 为正确答案。(2).【C2】(分数:2.00)A.uponB.bef

47、恢复”,均不符合题意。(6).【C6】(分数:2.00)A.effectB.affect C.reflectD.perfect解析:解析:考查动词辨析。本句中,_how you feel later 和 have a greater impact 是并列的谓语成分,因此所选的动词应该和 impact 具有相近的意思,Baffect 意为“影响”,符合语境,为正确答案。effect 作动词时,意为“实现,使生效”;reflect 意为“反映,反射”;perfect 作动词时意为“使完美”,均不符合题意。(7).【C7】(分数:2.00)A.alreadyB.everC.neverD.even 解析:解析:考查逻辑关系。对“The point in that cycle at which you wake can _how you feel later,and may _have a greater impact than how much or little you have slept”进行综合分析尤其是通过“a gre
