三、 单项选择
1. C. 句意：我宁愿在办公室工作而不愿在家里看电视。prefer to do... rather than do... 宁愿……而不愿……。
2. D. try to persuade sb. to do sth. “尽力去说服某人做某事”，在从句中作目的状语从句。题中的I can try ______ you to stay为定语从句，省略了作try宾语的关系代词that。
3. D. dig into钻研，掘进去；dig out 挖出，发现；dig up 挖出，掘起；dig down 挖倒。根据句意D项正确。
4. A. 句意：如果一个人没有足够的睡眠，那么在白天他的行为就会表露出来。give away泄露，表露；give up放弃；give in屈服，让步；give back返还。答案为A。
5. D. 题意：迈克的叔叔坚持不留在旅馆里。本题为虚拟语气，not前省略了should。故选D。
6. C. 意为“一旦你理解了它，掌握它就容易了”。
7. C. fun是不可数名词，意为“有趣的事”，因此不与不定冠词连用；不用副词how来修饰。
8. A. 句意为“你妻子喜欢茶吗？”“她其实不太喜欢茶，她更喜欢咖啡。”此处应该表示“喜欢”，故要用care for。
9. C. 句意为“我们经历了乡村地区通讯十分困难的那个时期”。the period 为先行词，代入句中为communications were very difficult in the rural areas in the period，由此可见先行词在定语从句中作介词in的宾语，C项正确。
10. B. 分析从句部分，I think 为插入语，不考虑在句中成分，从句部分缺少主语和be动词，因此选择B。
11. D. burst into tears意为“突然大哭，泪如雨下”。burst out/ couldn’t help后面均接doing。
12. B. 根据句意“你应该相信自己并努力工作_______你以前失败过几次”，需要填入关联词as if（即使）。
13. C. 句中用了将来完成时，句子的时间状语常用by...，表示“到……时候为止”。
14. B. imagine按照习惯后接doing。
15. B. 提出问题用“raise a question/ bring up the question/ present a problem”等。
16. A. fall into ruins 为固定搭配，“变成废墟”。
17. C. prevent...from意为 “阻止……做……”，从句意分析，他们阻止奶牛“被伤害”，应该用doing的被动形式being done。
18. A. 根据句意，“people”应该是“感到震惊(shocked)”，news应该是“令人震惊(shocking)”。
19. D. 句意为“他看起来似乎已经知道考试结果了”。A项为it作主语，不正确；B项结构不对；C项that从句后的he have known...不对。
20. B. many a后接单数名词及单数谓语，表达“许多，大量”的含义。
21. D. 根据题意，煤矿工人“被埋在废墟下”，用介词under；wait to do 为固定搭配，而且此处为“等待被救”，用wait to be done结构。
22. B. 本题考查部分否定与全部否定的表达。题干部分“Not all...”表示部分否定，和B项的“all....not”一样都表示部分否定；A，C，D均表示全部否定。
23. D. 句意：那个主妇抖动毯子，除去上面的灰尘。shake是普通用语，指上下前后移动；shiver指害怕、紧张导致的无意的抖动；tremble 指快速而轻微的抖动；quake震动，摇动，比较猛烈。
24. B. 注意此题的意思是要求选择错误的选项。其它三项都有“立刻、马上”的意思，at no time“决不”，故选择B。
25. D. burst into /out突然迸发，burst into + n；burst into +doing。laugher是名词。
26. B. 句意“我们今天不用做额外的工作了，今天的工作已经结束了”。 at an end 结束，在……的末尾。
