humour.单项填空1【解析】选b。考查语义及固定搭配。special特别的，特殊的；particular特殊的，挑剔的；careful小心的，谨慎的；strict严格的，严谨的。be particular about.为固定搭配，意为“对挑剔”。2【解析】选d。考查非谓语动词。句意为：今天早晨玛丽给我打电话了。从她失望的声音中，我知道她很失望。两处都用过去分词，表示主语所处的状态。3【解析】选a。考查动词短语辨析。句意为：史密斯女士很吃惊，她教孩子学法语这么短的时间他们竟学了这么多。pick up学到，获得，bring about引起，带来；pick out挑出，辨别出；bring up提出。4【解析】选a。考查非谓语动词的用法。动词leave与其逻辑主语the financial crisis之间是主谓关系，所以用leaving.作结果状语，相当于which left.。5【解析】选a。convince sb.that使某人确信；be optimistic about.对持乐观态度。句中convince与其逻辑主语we之间为被动关系，故应用过去分词。6【解析】选d。be content with.“对满足”，是固定搭配。7【解析】选d。failure表示“失败的人或事”时，是可数名词；表示抽象概念“失败”时，是不可数名词。第一空指“失败者”，所以用a；第二空指“以失败告终”，所以不加冠词。8【解析】选b。句意为：如果你仔细阅读说明的话，在考试中的很多错误都能避免。introduction介绍；direction要求，说明(书)；description描述；construction建设。9【解析】选c。根据前面的looked here and there判断，我们的老师“好像”在找东西，所以用as if。10【解析】选b。本题考查cut相关短语的用法。cut out删掉；cut off隔离；cut up切碎；cut through刺穿。根据句意用cut off。11【解析】选c。句意为：到他认识到已经中计的时候，再做任何事情已经无济于事了。根据句意可知，本句讲的是现在的事情，故用现在时，排除b、d两项，本句强调“已经中计”，应用完成时，故答案为c。12【解析】选a。句意：“噢，你的口音听起来就像是本地人。”“嗯，还不太像，我在表达清楚自己的意思时还有困难。”i dont care我不在乎；yes，youre right是的，你是对的；im glad you like it我很高兴你喜欢。这三项均与题意不相符。由答语中的“我在表达清楚自己的意思时还有困难”可知只有a项well，not quite“嗯，还不太像”，符合题意。13【解析】选c。stand作“忍受”讲时，后跟动词ing形式或动词ing形式的复合结构作宾语。动词ing形式的复合结构由“物主代词或人称代词宾格、名词所有格或普
