答案及解析:
1、答案:A。解析:本题测试点是动词短语的用法。come across sb/sth意为“偶然发现或遇见某人(某物)”,例如:I came across this old brooch in a curio shop(我在一家古玩店里偶然发现了这枚古老的扣花)。come about意为“发生”,come after表示“跟随;追踪;追捕”。come at表示“达到;接近;得到”。根据句意可知应选A项。句意:一天我在报纸上偶然发现一篇关于邻近某州大学的一位英语教授退休的报道。
2、答案:D。解析:本题测试点是近义动词辨析。expend意为“花费;使用;耗尽;用光”。offer意为“提供;提出;出价”。cost意为“价值(若干);花(多少钱)”。charge意为“索价;要价”,例如:He charged me fifty pence for it(这件东西他向我索价五十便士)。句意:她正在抱怨那位医生收费太高。
3、答案:A。解析:virtue意为“善;德行;美德;好处,优点”。feature意为“面貌的一部分(口鼻等);(复)容貌;面貌;相貌;特色;特征;(常作定语)(报纸上的)特写;特别报导”。property有“特性,属性,性质”的意思。characteristic意为“特点;特质;特征;特色”。句意:这位经理高度赞扬了他的员工所表现出的诸如忠诚、勇敢、守信等美德。
4、答案:C。解析:本题测试点是形容词的辨析。tough意为“(指肉)坚韧的,咬不动的;强韧的;不易切开、打破或磨损的;强壮的,坚强的,吃苦耐劳的;(指人)粗暴的;凶恶的;倔强的,固执的;难以执行的;困难的”。tense意为“(字面或比喻)拉紧的;紧张的”。urgent表示“需要立即决定或行动的;急迫的;(指人,其声音等)表示某事物是急迫的;坚持某项要求的”。句意:由于事情非常紧急,我们立即处理了它。
5、答案:C。解析:would rather意为“宁愿,宁可”。would rather、had rather、might as well、would as soon等短语往往引起虚拟的宾语从句,这些结构表示对未来推测的一种情况,后面跟上省去that的宾语从句,从句谓语要用过去式,又如:I would rather that my father gave me a pen as my birthday present。句意:你没有必要这么着急。我宁愿你先去上班。
