28、第二空也用不定冠词a。答案：A3解析：考查名词词义辨析。event指“大事件、国际事件或历史上的事件”，符合句意。matter指“亟待考虑或解决的事情，也可称作问题”；affair指“个人或国家的杂事”；incident指“小事件或政治事变”。答案：A4解析：考查情态动词。句意为：按照协议，如果你没有达到目标，你将会被罚款。shall用于第二、三人称，表示说话人给对方的承诺、警告、命令等，符合句意。答案：D5解析：考查副词用法。否定词not、never等与too连用时，意为“再也不为过，越越好”，其他几项均无此用法。答案：B6解析：在意外事故中受伤常用injure。句意为：十点钟时我接到他母亲

30、意为：自从雅安地震发生以来，这个救援小队已经从倒塌的建筑物下救出了10多个人。答案：C10解析：考查虚拟语气以及as if的用法。根据句中的can be adjusted，知这些队员现在还没在太空，是一个与现在事实相反的虚拟语气，故用were。句意为：这些太空服可以调节以便队员们能模仿不同级别的引力，好像他们在太空似的。答案：C11解析：句意为：战争中他发脾气且损害了健康；但现在两样都没有了。根据题干中的temper和health，可知设空处指的是两者，故排除D项；each指两者或两者以上的每个，不合句意；题干中出现了never，故排除表否定的neither；never与either连用，表示

31、全部否定，故为正确答案。答案：B12解析：考查动词辨析。根据前一句中的内容可知父母想给孩子提供“庇护”，让他们避免各种危险，无论是真实的，还是想象的。A项表示“认出；发现”，B项表示“开除；解散”，D项表示“区分”，都不符合语意。答案：C13解析：考查leave的用法及动词词义的辨析。句式结构：leave宾语宾语补足语，由上文中“看起来很着急”可知，论文应该还未完成，故选D项。答案：D14解析：考查动词辨析。ruin可用其引申含义，意为“毁坏”，此时其宾语通常是health，fame，chance等。injure侧重身体上的伤害；wound侧重战场上的刀伤、枪伤等；harm指“对有害”。答案：
