2. A 句意:从观察和实验中所得的证据通常用于证实科学理论。confirm证实,确实;concern担心;关于;consult咨询,请教;combine联合,结合。
3. A mix混合,配制;combine结合;unite联合;join加入;参加。此处指各种物质的混合,用mix最合适,故选A。
4. A make an impression on/upon sb. 为固定搭配,意为“给某人留下深刻印象”。 5. A 句意:长子当医生是那个家族的传统。tradition传统;custom习俗;habit习惯;way方法。 6. A 句意:他乘公共汽车时把座位让给了站在他身边的老太太。nearby在附近。

Ⅲ. 1. B 对比、分析四个选项,A、C、D三项词义不符,此处指安迪确认航班。
2. C 该句指安迪与西班牙人面对面(in person)交流时,他能听懂他们的话,与下文电话交流(speaking on the phone)形成对比。
3. A 此处含有固定短语have no difficulty (in) doing sth. ,指“做某事没有困难”,符合语境。而have 11. D 安迪正在西班牙度假,准备三天后乘飞机离
开西班牙,该句应含“安迪希望有钱时再一次来西班牙待上一年”之意,故come back符合句意和语境。
12. B 从…the final day arrived. 能推理出,安迪感觉时间过得太快(quickly),其他选项在词义上不符合句意和语境。
13. C 安迪在飞机起飞前提前两小时到达了机场。从中可推断安迪不愿意太匆忙,故选C项。 14. B 从上文语境可知,安迪早已买好了返程的机票,故排除A、C两项,而D项provide指“提no idea指“不知道”,have no mistake指“没有错误”,have no interest指“不感兴趣”,均不合语境。
4. D instead反而;therefore因此;meanwhile同时;however然而。根据逻辑关系,前句说安迪与西班牙人面对面交流时,他能听懂他们的话,而该句指明安迪在通过电话交流时就有点说不清,两句之间含有转折关系。
5. C 四个选项中,从语法结构上考虑都适合该句,但从上下文语境上分析,still(仍然)符合语意。 6. A 前文涉及安迪与西班牙人进行电话交流时,他的西班牙语不是很好,有点说不清,则可推断此处指安迪打电话给航空公司,故选called。 7. B again再一次;only仅仅;once曾经,均不符合上下文语境。航空公司的工作人员说安迪要乘坐的航班是在三天后的早晨9点,并告诉他要提前两小时到达机场,便于检查行李、找座位,also(也)符合句意和语境。
8. B 句中two hours(两个小时)指一段时间,四个选项中,before,after一般不单独用于一段时间短语之后,副词earlier指“提前”,later指“以后”。根据生活常识,到达飞机场应在预订时间之前,否则会错过预订的航班。
9. D 句中in three days(三天后)指将来的时间,该句用进行时态表示将来。前文提及安迪在西班牙度假后准备乘飞机离开西班牙,因而move移动;return返回;stay待在,不符合上下文语境。 10. C take time指从容进行,花费时间;have time指有时间;lose time指浪费时间;find time指找到时间。该句指安迪充分利用这三天的时间又参观了西班牙的很多地方,说明他没有浪费时间。 供”,不符合安迪(乘客)的身份,故选B项, present“出示”与show意义相同。
15. A 四个选项都是名词,astonishment惊讶;patience耐心;respect尊敬;delight高兴。根据语境,航空公司的工作人员看了安迪的机票后,告诉安迪说他的航班是在上午9点,而当时已是晚上8点了,那么工作人员当时理应是“惊讶”的表情。
16. D 航空公司的工作人员说的应是当时已是晚上8点了,安迪延误了他的航班,故选D项。 17. A insist坚持说;apologize道歉;reply回答;demand要求。从安迪所说的But I confirmed my flight可知,安迪三天前打电话给航空公司的目的是确认他的航班离境时间就是在今天,而现在航空公司的工作人员说安迪延误了他的航班,安迪不相信,所以他“坚持说”这句话,其他选项不符合语境。
18. C experience经历,经验;expression表情,脸色;look神色,神态,外表;face脸,面孔,面容,表情。该句中shock“震惊”,表明安迪听完航空公司工作人员的话后的脸色和神态,故选C项。
19. A pleasure高兴;comfort安慰;sadness悲伤;hopelessness毫无希望。从上下文语境可推断,安迪听完航空公司工作人员的话,先是感到震惊,而后转为高兴,因为他很喜欢继续待在西班牙。
20. D 根据上下文语境,安迪到西班牙是度假,延误了航班,他的神色由震惊转为高兴,因为他还可以在西班牙继续度假,其他选项的词义不符合语境。

答案与解析
1. A 根据句意可以推断空格内应填入表示“证实、
确认”意义的词。B项意为“使混淆”;C项意为“承认”;D项意为“限制”。
2. D 由语境可知,此处表示“记下”,而A、B、C三项都能表达此意,故选D项。
3. A 空格处所填词应该表示“注意,留心”,故选A项。
4. A 从上下文语境可知,此处指“健康比富有更重要”,因为句中已含有一个being,所以其后须用形容词。
5. B trip指短期旅行,强调往返;journey指从一地到另一地作长途或短途旅行;travel指远距离旅行;voyage指海上或空中旅行。由语境可知应选B项。
6. D 由语境可知,此处指“消息很快传开了”。从四个选项可知,此题考查travel和spread的过去式形式,travel的过去式可以是traveled,也可以是travelled;spread的过去式和过去分词均与动词原形一致,在这里,travel是“传播”的意思。
7. A 句意:我在印度和远东作了五个月的旅行。tour既可指长途旅行,也可指短途旅行;travel泛指旅行,一般不与make搭配;journey指旅程;voyage通常指海上旅行。
8. D travel通常是长途的、长时间的旅行;trip常指一个往返、有去有回的旅行;journey指从一个地方到另一个地方花费时间和走的旅程,常指单程;voyage指航海旅行。
9. B 从上下文语境可知,此处表达的含义是“阻止伤口流血”,在这四个选项中只有flowing有这个意思。
10. D 从上下文语境可知,由于失控眼泪顺着面颊流下,flow和pour都有“流动”的意思,故正确答案为D项。 11. D 句意:泪水从她的眼中流出。flow流动,流;combine结合,联合;meet会合,碰上;flower开花。
12. A 由sun shining可知天亮了。morning,day可以和dawn搭配,但morning不能和break搭配,据此知选as long as“只要”。
24. D 考查非谓语动词作状语,we 与fail构成主谓关系。
25. A 句子主语I与see构成主谓关系,故用现在分词作状语。
26. D 由答语中的But可知上下句为转折关系,因此尽管“你有那么多的衣服”,“但它们现在没有一件是时尚的”。因此排除A、B两项,而C项是表示两者之间的关系的,故应排除。 27. D dawn break意为“天亮”。 28. A business trips指“商业旅行”。
day可以和break搭配。
13. D 表示“花钱做某事”时,一般用动词spend和cost;但有时也用下列句型:It costs sb. some money to do sth. /It takes sb. some money to do sth.;take常用来指“花费时间、金钱等”。 14. A would like to do sth. 和spend time doing sth. 为固定搭配。
15. A 本题的含义是“大体上说,这份报纸认为各国应该建立自己的政策”。在表示此意的时候只能用broad或broadly,而分析句子的结构可知需要的是一个形容词,故选A项。
16. B 句意为“香蕉树的叶子很宽,这是众所周知的”。表示树叶宽时用broad。 17. B broad可用来修饰肩、背;wide在此为副词,意为“尽可能远地,充分地”。 18. B the broad sea指“辽阔的大海”。broad用来表示幅面宽广。
19. D 本题的句子结构较复杂。dream of后应接名词或动名词,由此A、B、C三项均可被排除,D项应看做there be句式的变化形式,因being的逻辑主语不是句子的主语you,而是与there有关,故there必须与之连用。此处可以理解为being的复合结构。
20. A 从后一分句“你应该趁年轻时努力工作”来推断前一分句应表示“你不要虚度光阴”,故选A项。
21. B 本题中的四个选项都可以用作连词,但意思不一样。从题意“一群孩子又唱又跳地一直走到山脚下”来分析,C、D两项与句意不符;A项有两个含义,一是“只要”,二是“与……一样长”,可指时间,也可指长度;本题指的是距离,应用as far as,表示“远至”。
22. B as long as表示条件;just as表示方式;even if表示让步,皆不符合语境。句意:就我所知,避免这种危险只有一种可行的方法。因此只能选B项,as far as意为“就……的限度”。
23. D 句意:只要能做,是谁做就无所谓了……,
29. D wealth作“财产”讲时是不可数名词;work作“作品”讲时是可数名词。 30. A dream与of/about搭配,后接名词或动名词。 31. B wealthy和rich都可以表达“富有的”,但rich在语气上更直率更有力,且可表示精神上的“富有”。
32. C 句意:看见远处的灯光,她意识到附近有个村庄。in the distance“在远处”,为固定搭配;nearby“在附近”。
33. D 本题考查动词辨析。confirm“证明;证实;批准”。句意:我想证实飞往旧金山的245航班是否按时起飞。permit“允许;许可”;remind“提醒;使……想起”;spy“窥视;窥探”,均不符合句意。
34. C as far as I can see意为“就我看来”。 35. C be busy doing sth. 意为“忙于做某事”,为固定搭配,D项不符合题意。
36. B 句意:我在电话上接受了那份工作,但我还没有书面予以确认。confirm确认,证实;confine限制,使局限;confer商谈,商议;confess供认,坦白。
37. A 根据句子结构,前后应该是转折关系。not none/nothing为双重否定表示肯定;something不用于否定句,故只有选A项。not all=all not“并非全部”,表示部分否定,符合句意。
