46、句中已经出现atlevels(在的水平或级别上)这一固定搭配，所以此处也应用at。3.A.whenB.howC.whyD.whether答案:A考查从句连接词。由句子结构可知空格后的部分是前面主句的状语从句，应填入的连接词在从句中也作状语，且表达的是时间，故选连接副词when。4.A.refusesB.deniesC.invitesD.accepts答案:C考查动词辨义与上下文理解。由后面的an open atmosphere(一种开明的氛围)可知A、B两个含有否定义的动词都不能填入。accept指“接纳，接受”，它不用input(意见)作宾语。invite在此指“主动要求(别人提出意见等)”

47、。5.A.hisB.herC.ourD.their答案:D考查指代一致。从句主语是all，指前文所说的his executives and supervisors，且由句意及动词share(分享)可知这里并非指将CE0一个人的观点拿出来分享，故选与all对应的代词their。6.A.experiencingB.followingC.performingD.going答案:B考查动词辨义与搭配。experience经历，体验；follow跟随，按照；perform表现，完成；go走，去。能与practice(惯例，习惯做法，实践)搭配的动词是follow。7.A.asB.forC.as ifD.
