3.B人们最担心的是他们不被允许了解国际时事。

［考点］非谓语动词

【精析】B分析句子结构并结合选项可知，空处应用动名词的复合形式作表语。allow与其逻辑主语他们之间是动宾关系，所以应用被动语态。另外，动名词的否定形式是在其前加上否定词not，即notdoing的形式。故选B

5.B学校组织的活动给了我们一个学习团队精神的平台。

6.C暴风雨太猛烈了，以至于飞行员无法驾机穿过它。

［考点］倒装句

【精析】Cso/such…that…结构中的so/such连同它所直接修饰的成分位于句首表示强调时，句子应部分倒装，即将助动词、情态动词、be动词提至主语之前。四个选项中，只有选项C是正确的倒装形式。故选C

10.A就读法学院没有就读医学院花费的时间长。

［考点］it的用法
