14、ctions: There are thirty sentences in this section. Beneath each sentence there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Choose one word or phrase that best completes the sentence.(分数:2.00)_解析:2.My husband didnt tell me the whole story. He always _ me.2004(分数:2.00)A.held out onB.prevailed onC
15、.touched uponD.got off with解析:解析:动词词组的含义。hold out on“对保密”;prevail on“说服”;touch upon“简单涉及”;get off with“与交好”。根据句意,正确答案应为A。3.I am glad to hear that John finally _ his own mistakes.2003(分数:2.00)A.owned up toB.made up toC.caught on toD.got on to解析:解析:固定短语含义。own up to“承认”;make up to“讨好,接近”;catch on to“理解
16、”;get on to“想出,理解”。本句是说约翰最后承认了自己的错误,所以A为正确答案。4.It is believed that children of two or three years old are able to learn any language if they are _ it.2002(分数:2.00)A.involved inB.indulged inC.disposed toD.exposed to解析:解析:involve sbin sth意指“使某人参与某活动或陷入某情况,表明某人与(某罪行)有关联”;indulge in sth指“让自己尽情享受某事物”;dis
17、pose sbto sth指“使某人愿意做某事”;expose sbto sth指“显露或暴露某人于某事物。使某人面临某事物或接触某事物”。所以,正确答案为D。5.Professor Johnsons retirement _ from next January.2005(分数:2.00)A.carries into effectB.takes effectC.has effectD.puts into effect解析:解析:动词短语含义及用法题。虽然carry into effect,take effect和put into effect都有“实施,生效”的意思,但用法却大不一样。carr
18、yputbring into effect 一类的词组是“使生效”的意思,要带宾语或用被动语态;而takecomego into effect一类的词组可以独立使用,可以直接说:sthtakescomes intogoes into effect。题目中retirement是主语,故只能选B。has effect表示“有效果或影响”,与句意不符。6.Mr. Browns condition looks very serious and it is doubtful if he will _. 2005(分数:2.00)A.pull backB.pull upC.pull throughD.pu
19、ll out解析:解析:动词短语含义辨析题。四个选项都是pull的词组,但只有pull through有“渡过难关,恢复健康”之义,符合题意,选C。pull back“把向后拉,撤回”;pull up“拔起,停下”;pull out“驶出车站,离站;从撤离”。7.As my exams are coming next week, Ill take advantage of the weekend to _ on some reading.2004(分数:2.00)A.catch upB.clear upC.make upD.pick up解析:解析:动词词组含义辨析题。catch up on“
20、赶做(应及时完成的工作)”,如:I have to catch up on my work tonight,so I cant come out(今天晚上我得赶工作,不能出来了。)因此A正确。B、C都不与on搭配,而pick up与on搭配,为美国俚语“与熟悉起来”,不符合题意。8.He will have to _ his indecent behaviour one day.2003(分数:2.00)A.answer toB.answer forC.answer backD.answer about解析:解析:固定短语含义辨析题。answer for“承受的后果(报应)”,符合题意。ans
21、wer to“符合”,如:Those who answer to the description given by the police will be put into prison(那些和警察所提供的相貌特征相符的人将被送进监狱。)answer back“顶嘴”,没有answer about短语。9.Whenever possible, Ian _ how well he speaks Japanese.2003(分数:2.00)A.shows upB.shows aroundC.shows offD.shows out解析:解析:动词短语辨析题。show off“炫耀”,符合题意。sho
22、ws up“揭露,露面”,如:By the time he showed up,the party was nearly over(他到场的时候晚会已快结束了。)shows around“带领到处看看”;show out“送出客人”。10.The old couple will never _ the loss of their son.2002(分数:2.00)A.get overB.get awayC.get offD.get across解析:解析:词组的含义与用法题。get over在本句中表示“(从疾病、打击、失望等中)恢复过来,克服”,符合句意。get away表示“走开、逃脱”等
23、;get off表示“(从)下来、下车、脱衣服”等;get across表示“(使)通过,越过,(使)被理解、接受”,均不符合题意。11.She refused to _ the door key to the landlady until she got back her deposit.1999(分数:2.00)A.hand inB.hand outC.hand downD.hand over解析:解析:动词短语辨析题。hand in表示“上交,提交”;hand out表示“分发”,如:hand out the examination papers(分发试卷);hand down表示“把一
24、代代传下去”;hand over表示“交出,移交”,根据题意,D正确。12.My mother cant get _ because she has rheumatism(风湿病).2000(分数:2.00)A.aboutB.onC.throughD.by解析:解析:动词短语辨析题。get about“(尤指病后起床)走动”,符合题意,选A。get on“继续做某事”;get through“干完”;get by“过得去”,均不符合题意。13.It will take us twenty minutes to get to the railway station, _ traffic dela
25、ys.2003(分数:2.00)A.acknowledgingB.affordingC.allowing forD.accounting for解析:解析:allowing for“考虑,顾及”,如:Allowing for the train being late,we should be back by 12(把火车误点的时间考虑在内,我们12点以前应该回来了。)在此处符合题意。acknowledging“承认,答谢”;affording“提供,给予”;accounting for“说明,占”,均不符合题意。14.School started on a _ cold day in Febr
26、uary.2010(分数:2.00)A.severeB.bitterC.suchD.frozen解析:解析:固定搭配题。severe是指“严峻的,严重的”,不能跟cold搭配;frozen是“冰冻的”,也不能跟cold搭配。such应该放在不定冠词前才对。如such a cold day。只有bitter能跟cold搭配,是“严寒”的意思。因此选B。15.Sally was a bit shy, but the teacher found her quite _ discussing a recent film with others.2008(分数:2.00)A.at homeB.at mo
27、stC.at houseD.at heart解析:解析:考查介词短语。Aat home“无拘束”;Bat most“最多”;Cat house不是固定短语;Dat heart“在内心里”;故选A。16.With _ exceptions, the former president does not appear in public now. 2003(分数:2.00)A.rareB.unusualC.extraordinaryD.unique解析:解析:with rare exceptions是英语中较为固定的一种搭配,表示“很少有例外的情况”,其他三个选项不用于这一短语搭配中。17.As a
28、 developing country, we must keep _ with the rapid development of the world economy.1999(分数:2.00)A.moveB.stepC.speedD.pace解析:解析:keep pace with是个固定搭配,表示“(在速度、水平方面)跟上,赶上”,符合题意。move“步骤,移动”和speed“速度”不能与keep构成固定搭;keep step with“与步调一致”,不符合上下文的意思。18.There are still many problems ahead of us, but by this ti
29、me next year we can see light at the end of the _.2005(分数:2.00)A.battleB.dayC.roadD.tunnel解析:解析:虽然四个选项都可以搭配词组at the end of,但light at the end of the tunnel是英语中的习语,表示“曙光在前,胜利在望”的意思,所以选项D正确。19.When he first started in university, he really felt at _ with his major economics.2008(分数:2.00)A.shoreB.bankC.
30、oceanD.sea解析:解析:at sea(with sth)在口语中表示“不知所措,困惑,茫然”,故选D。20.As the director cant come to the reception, Im representing the company_. 2000(分数:2.00)A.on his accountB.on his behalfC.for his partD.in his interest解析:解析:on ones behalf是固定搭配,表示“代表,作为的代言人”,符合句意。on ones account“为了某人的缘故”;for ones part“对某人来说”;in
31、 ones interest“为了某人的利益”,均不符合题意。21.The fact that the management is trying to reach agreement_ five separate unions has led to long negotiations.1999(分数:2.00)A.overB.uponC.inD.with解析:解析:agreement可与with,about,on,over等介词搭配。to reach an agreement with sbover sth表示“与某人就某事达成协议”,故D正确。22.The guest team was be
32、aten by the host team 2 _ 4 in last years CFA Cup Final.1999(分数:2.00)A.overB.inC.toD.against解析:解析:表示比分用介词to,故C正确。over表示“几分之几”,如three over five(五分之三);in“在的条件下”,如one in ten(十个中有一个);against“与成对照”,如a picture against the dark background(与黑色背景成对比的图片)。23.The police let him go, because they didnt find him g
33、uilty _ the murder. 1999(分数:2.00)A.ofB.inC.overD.on解析:解析:guilty后接介词of表示“犯罪”,故A正确。24.The company has capitalized_ the error of judgment made by its business competitor.2008(分数:2.00)A.inB.overC.withD.on解析:解析:capitalize on“利用(别人的错误获利)”,介词on往往接error,mistake 一类的词,如:She capitalized on her opponents mistak
34、e and won the game(她利用对手的失误赢得了比赛。)因此选D。25.When invited to talk about his achievements, he refused to blow his own _ and declined to speak at the meeting.2008(分数:2.00)A.trumpetB.whistleC.bugleD.flute解析:解析:trumpet“喇叭”;whistle“口哨”;bugle“军号”;flute“长笛”。这四个词都可以作动词blow的宾语,但是blow ones own trumpet是固定搭配,意思是“自
35、吹自擂,往自己脸上贴金”,故选A。26.Keep this reference book; it may come in _ one day.2008(分数:2.00)A.handyB.usefulC.convenientD.helpful解析:解析:come in handy“迟早有用,派得上用场”,是口语中的固定搭配,故选A。27.Although I spoke to her about the matter several times, she took little _ of what I said.1998(分数:2.00)A.remarkB.warningC.noticeD.attention解析:解析:take notice of表示“注意,关注,理会”,相当于pay attention to。28.I only know the man by _ but I have never spoken to him.2001(分数:2.00)A.chanceB.heartC.sightD.experience解析:解析:know sbby sight表示“仅见过面,面熟”,与never spoken to him相呼应。by chance表示“偶然,意外地”;learn sthby heart表示“熟记,默记”;by experience表示“凭经验,从经验中”。
