2.

3.

5.

参考答案D

6.
He is__that I′d like to introduce him to you.?
参考答案C
解析So和such都可修饰单数可数名词，但是形式上略有不同：So+形容词+a（an）+名词，而such+a（an）+形容词+名词。注意其中冠词的位置。
7.
--Have you seen Jack and John?--I haven′t seen__________of them.
参考答案C
解析表示二者的“都”或“任何一位”用neither或either排除B项和D项。谓语动词已经否定，C项是正确的。句意为：“一你看见杰克和约翰了吗?一他们两个我都没看见。”
8.
Children should be taught how to get along with___.
参考答案C
解析这道题考查易混词的用法。other表示“其他的”，使厢时，其后接名词。other有复数形式；特指时在其前加定冠词：前面可加任何限定词以及数量词。others是other的复数形式，意思是“另外的人（物），其他的人（物）”；another表示“另外一个”，表示单数泛指的意思；any other的意思是“别的”，与所指或特指的一个或一些不同的人或者物。根据题意，可知本题应该选择C项。句意为：“孩子们应该被教会如何与他人相处。”
9.
Had he worked harder,he__the exams.
参考答案B
解析从句是一个省略if的条件句，表示对过去事实的假设，用虚拟语气。
10.
Twenty miles__a long way to cover.
参考答案B
解析表示重量、金钱、长度、距离类的名词作主语，不论是否加S，都被当作第三人称单数。
11.
__man is__reasoning animal.
参考答案C
解析此题考查冠词的用法。通过对句意分析可知，第一个空格不是指一个人，而是人这类动物，因此不用加任何冠词,而第二个空格则表示“一种”，因此填a。
12.
In 2008,27 people were arrested becauseof the contaminated（有毒的）milk powder__
参考答案A
解析考查名词辨析。句意为：“在2008年，有27人因有毒奶粉事件而被捕。”incident“大事件”；accident“偶发事件”；event“项目，一般事情”；occurence“偶发事件”。由句意可知选A项。
13.
__that your son is well again,you no longer have anything to worry about.
参考答案D
解析now that是一个连词，意为“既然”，引导原因状语从句。
14.
What we must do now__make a careful investigation on the circumstances.
参考答案C
解析本句的主语是what we must do now，这是一个表示单数的主语从句，而空格后是一个动词短语，因此选择C项。即动词不定式作表语。
15.
Eat as many vegetables as possible,for they are rich__iron.
参考答案B
解析be rich in意为“富含……，在……（方面）富有，是固定搭配。
16.
Open the window,__?
参考答案C
解析祈使句的反意疑问句，疑问部分用will you。C项是正确的。句意为：“打开窗户，好吗?”
17.
We couldn′t eat in a restaurant because__of us had__money on us.
参考答案C
解析从前半句提供的信息来看，后半句应该是一个完全否定句，而A项中由all引导的句子是不完全否定的句子，即"不全都……”，应予以排除。
18.
Five minutes earlier,__we could have caught the last train.
参考答案C
解析两个分句之间不存在转折和因果的逻辑关系，因此用and表示结果，意为“那么”。
19.
Bill looked around for a participant__
参考答案C
解析根据句意，可知空格处应为句子的目的状语，而动词不定式短语常常用作目的状语。此外需要注意的是，其中动词的搭配必须完整。
20.
The police chief ordered that parking__on Main Street during the rush hour.
参考答案A
解析这道题考查虚拟语气的用法。当句中出现表示“命令、建议、要求”等含义的谓语动词时，其后的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，即“should+动词原形”，should可以省略。同时，要意这道题要用被动语态，因此为“（should）+be+过去分词”，答案为A项。

The small number of newborn babies,which has been caused by high prices and the changing social situation of women,is one of the most serious problems inAsia.When people talk about it,you can hear a word invented inJapan,"DINKS",which means Double Income No Kids.In many majorAsian cities like Seoul,Singapore,and Tokyo,the cost of a house is extremelyhigh.A young couple who want to buy their own house may have to pay about$300,000（though prices have fallen）.For a flat with one bedroom,onedining-room,a kitchen,and a bathroom,the couple will pay about$900 amonth.What′s more,if they want to have a child,the child′s education is veryexpensive.For example,most kindergarten charges are at least$5,000 a year.In such a situation,it′s difficult to afford children.The number of married women who want to continue working increases rapidly because they enjoytheir jobs.However,if they want to have children,they immediately haveserious problems.Though most companies allow women to leave their jobs for ashort time to have a baby,they expect women with babies to give up their jobs.In short,if they want to bring up children properly,both parents have towork,but it is hard for mothers to work.Indeed,women who want to continueworking have to choose between having children or keeping their jobs.In a word,Asiangovernments must take steps to improve the present situation as soon aspossible.What is the main problem beingdiscussed in the passage?
