A. at the expense of B. at the risk of C. in the way of D. at the mercy of
[答案]D. at the mercy of.
[注释]at the mercy of 在......支配下:The ship was at the mercy of the waves.(这艘船任凭风浪摆布。)at the expense of 以......为代价,靠牺牲......;in the way of 碍......事;at the risk of 冒......的危险:
1)He devoted his time to football at the expense of his studies.(他牺牲学习把时间都花在足球上。)
2)Her social lift got in the way of her studies.(她的社交生活妨碍了她的学习。)
3)We do this at the risk of our lives and liberties.(我们冒丢掉生命和丧失自由的危险做这件事。)

3. I _____ her not to walk on the thin ice but she would not listen to me.
A. warned B. persuaded C. suggested D. noticed
[答案]A. warned.
[注释]warn sb. (not) to do sth.警告某人(不)做某事。
Suggest 不能接sb. to do sth。persuade sb.(not) to do sth.说服、某人(不)做某事;本题中不能选D. persuaded, 因该动词强调行为的结果。从逻辑上讲,既然“说服了”,那么与she wouldn't listen to me 就前后矛盾了。如果把句子该为:I tried to persuade her not to walk on the thin ice but she wouldn't listen to me.(我极力劝她不要在薄冰上走,但她不愿听我的话。),那么就符合逻辑了。
[注意]warn sb. of sth.警告某人有......。
4. When products made in factories _____, they are thrown away as garbage.
A. come to an end B. are put to use C. are used up D. wear out
[答案]D. wear out.
[注释]wear out 本题中意指(become useless form continued use of wear)用坏,穿破,如:The machine will soon wear out.(这机器即将用坏。)come to and end(结束),put ... to use(投入使用), use up(用完), come into use(开始投入使用)。
5. She is making herself ill with _____ over her son's future.
A. trouble B. annoyance C. disgust D. worry
[答案]D. worry
[注释]worry 既可作动词用,也可以作名词用,意思是“忧虑”,后接介词about 或over。worry over 比worry about 对某事的忧虑更为持久,更为专注,如:He worries over the least thing that goes wrong.(他总是惟恐有一点小事出错。)
