26、感”,符合文意,因此为正确答案。A:deal作为“处理,料理”的意思,一般多用作不及物动词,与with搭配,故排除;B:yearn的意思是“渴望,思念”,为不及物动词,在这个定语从句中,先行词something紧随空格,yearn后不能直接跟宾语,因此可以排除;D:hope的意思是“希望”,如果表达“希望获得”,一般与介词for连用,所以也可排除。(2).A. quickly B. suddenlyC. occasionally D. expectedly(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 副词辨析题。B:suddenly指“突然地”,强调事情意外地发生。而此处的实际情况是:想要成为
27、好的作家,必须勤学苦练,所以B:suddenly符合文意,故为正确答案。A:quickly指“速地,迅速地”,仅仅强调速度之快和动作的敏捷,意思不够贴切,因此排除;C:occasionally指“偶尔地”,表示频率,而原文意思与频率无关,故排除;D:expectedly指“预期地”,不符合文意,因此排除。(3).A. intense B. intensiveC. extensive D. exterior(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 形容词辨析题。intensive的意思是“加强的,强化的”,故选B。A:intense意为“(指感觉或感情方面)强烈的,剧烈的”,也可以指人“热情
28、的”;C:extensive的意思是“广泛的,广大的”;D:exterior的意思是“外部的;外来的;外表的”,这三个选项都与句意不符,故排除。(4).A. trade B. occupationC. career D. work(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 名词辨析题。trade指技巧、技能型的“职业”,而厨师则属于技巧型行业的一种,因此A:trade为正确答案。B:occupation是正式表达“职业”的词语,往往出现在正式的书面语中,因此排除;C:career。指的是愿意从事一生的“事业”,用于此处不合适,故排除;D:work指各种种类的“工作”,相比trade而言,wo
29、rk的概念过于笼统,故排除。(5).A. improving B. refiningC. achieving D. realizing(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词辨析题。C:achieving指付出努力而成功“达到,获得”,符合原文中的“形成自己的写作风格”的意思,因此为正确答案。A:improving的意思是“提高,改善”,如果使用这个词,那么隐含的意思就是作家已经形成了自己的风格,而此风格有待改善,那么style之前则应该使用his/her或定冠词the,而不是不定冠词a,因此排除;B:refining指“精炼,改进”,如果使用这个词,也暗示作家已有自己的风格,因此s
30、tyle之前应该使用定冠词,因此也可排除;D:realizing指“实现,意识到”,与文意不符,故排除。(6).A. barely B. purelyC. only D. wholly(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 副词辨析题。B:purely意为“单纯地,纯粹地”,符合文意,为正确答案。A:barely意为“几乎不”,表示否定,不符合文意,故排除;C:only意为“只,仅仅”,一般强调唯一性。文章主要突出的是“纯粹的社会交流”,因此only的意思没有purely准确,故排除;D:wholly意为“完全地,全部地”,与文意不符,故排除。(7).A. concrete B. spe
31、cificC. exact D. literal(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 形容词辨析题。concrete的意思是“具体的,实质的”,与它相对应的是abstract“抽象的”。文中提到的“创作的冲动”属于抽象的想法,通过耐心的训练才能将其转化为实质性的创作,因此A是正确答案。B:specific意为“详细的,明确的;特殊的”,与之相对应的是general“普遍的,一般的”,用在此处不合适,故排除;C:exact意为“精准的”,强调准确性,不符合文意,故排除;D:literal意为“字面意思的”,与文意不符,故排除。(8).A. effective B. efficientC.
32、 affectionate D. moved(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 形容词辨析题。A:effective意为“有效的;实际的”,也可以表示“产生深刻印象的”,符合句意,故为答案。B:efficient:的意思是“(指人)有能力的;(尤指工具、机器、系统等)有效力的”;C:affectionate的意思是“充满感情的”,多用于形容人;D:moved表示“受到感动的”,均不符合文意,故排除。(9).A. replaced B. removedC. reserved D. remote(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 形容词辨析题。remote表示“遥远的,偏远的”
33、,符合文意,因此正确答案为D。A:replaced意为“被替换的”;B:removed意思是“远离的”;C:reserved形容人或者性格“矜持的,寡言的,内向的”,以上三个选项均不符合文意,故排除。(10).A. cost B. priceC. fee D. expense(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 名词辨析题。fee指的是“(付给私人教师、医生等的)服务费,酬金”,符合文意,因此选C。A:cost是“花费,代价,成本”的意思,一般指生产某东西的成本,也可以泛指商品的价格或付出的代价;B:price意为“价格;代价”,指商品在市场上出售的价格;D:expense意为“费用,
34、花费”,指实际支付费用的数额,有时也可以指钱的花费,均可排除。(11).A. look after B. watch outC. manage with D. take care of(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词短语辨析题。空格中填入的动词词组表达的意思应该是“管理,处理(各种各样的信件写作)”。D:take care of可以表示“照看,照料”,也可以表示“负责,处理”,符合文意,故为正确答案。A:look after意为“照看,照料(某人或某物)”;B:watch out意为“小心,警惕”;C:manage with意为“设法应对”,均可以排除。(12).A. mor
35、e than B. no more thanC. less than D. no less than(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 固定搭配题。B:no more than的意思是“不过,仅仅”,符合文意,故选B。(13).A. although B. ifC. when D. since(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 语篇衔接题。根据逻辑关系判断,这里应该表示假设,故正确答案是B:if。句子前后部分之间并不是让步或因果关系,因此可以排除A:although“尽管”和D:since“既然”;如果用when来引导时间状语从句,那么句子中writing的限定词不应用an
36、y,而应用some更为合适,故排除C。(14).A. on B. forC. up D. out(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 固定搭配题。call on sb. to do sth. 的意思是“郑重邀请或恳求某人做某事”,符合文意,故选A。call for sth. 的意思是“要求,需要(某事物)”;call sb. /sth. up的意思是“给某人打电话;回忆”;call sb. out是指“召唤某人(尤指处理紧急事件)”,均可排除。(15).A. put into B. put down toC. put behind D. put onto(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D
37、.解析:解析 动词辨析题。A:put into表示“被放置入邮件中(传递)”,符合文意,为正确答案。B:put down to的意思是“把记在某账户上”,不符合文意,故排除;C:put behind指“放在后面;拒绝考虑”,与文意不符,故排除;D:put onto有“向某人提供消息;将某事告诉某人”的意思,与文意不符,故排除。(16).A. by air B. by seaC. by hand D. by land(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 固定搭配题。在空格之前出现的是put into the mails(通过邮件传递),那么与之相对应的就应该是“经人手传递”,所以正确答案
38、应该是C:by hand。A:by air“经空运”、B:by sea“经海运”和D:by land“由陆路”均不符合文章,故排除。(17).A. innumerable B. endlessC. unlimited D. enormous(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 形容词辨析题。空格里需要填入的形容词修饰:figure(数字),强调的是数字之大。enormous意为“巨大的,庞大的”,符合句意,故选D。A:innumerable“不计其数的”、C:unlimited“无限的;数或量极大的”都是用来形容数量,而不是数字,因此排除;B:endless意为“无止境的”,不符合文意
39、,可以排除。(18).A. in the least B. at leastC. not least D. least of all(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 副词短语辨析题。B:at least的意思是“至少”,符合文意,是正确答案。A:in the least表示“一点,丝毫”,常用于否定句中,可以排除;C:not least的意思是“尤其是,特别是”,用于突出语气,与文意不符,可以排除;D:least of all表示“最不,尤其不”,不符合文意,故排除。(19).A. throw into B. throw awayC. throw up D. throw about
40、(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 动词短语辨析题。A:throw into使用的结构是throw sth. into sth. ,意思是“把扔进”,符合句意,为正确答案。B:throw away sth. 表示“把扔掉;丢弃”,不符合文意;C:throw up是指“呕吐,恶心”,意思与原文不符,故排除;D:throw out指“扔出;赶出”,如果后面要接宾语,应该使用介词of,故排除。(20).A. result B. reasonC. purpose D. cause(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D.解析:解析 名词辨析题。空格中填入的单词应该是表示“原因”,B:reason和D
41、:cause都有“原因”的意思,但是在这句话中,空格中的单词是关系从句的先行词,而只有在先行词为reason的时候,关系副词why才能被省略,因此答案为B。Visitors to Britain may find the best place to sample local culture is in a traditional pub.
