23、布萊爾夫妻的第四個(gè)孩子，他重六磅，12盎司。孩子出生以后，由父母帶回唐寧街十號(hào)。由此我們可以得知，這個(gè)孩子不是在唐寧街十號(hào)出生的。故C不符合原文。C考點(diǎn)：這是一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)分析題；問(wèn)的是布萊爾夫人是一個(gè)怎么樣的人。解析：該題的信息出現(xiàn)在文章最后兩段。從該部分我們可以得知，布萊爾夫人是一名律師，她的孩子出生前一直在堅(jiān)持工作，星期二那天，她正在高等法庭工作，對(duì)她丈夫的產(chǎn)假制度提出了挑戰(zhàn)。由此我們可以看出，布萊爾夫是一位非常堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的女性。所以，本題的答案為C。B考點(diǎn)：這是一個(gè)詞匯題；考的是如何通過(guò)上下文判斷詞義。解析：該詞所在的句子出現(xiàn)在倒數(shù)第二段里，這句話的意思是解決好事業(yè)和家庭的關(guān)系經(jīng)常是她工作的焦點(diǎn)。

24、事業(yè)和家庭之間的關(guān)系對(duì)她來(lái)說(shuō)是一個(gè)棘手的問(wèn)題；由此我們可以得知，該詞的意思是困難的，棘手的。這個(gè)詞的意思還可以從該詞的詞根判斷出來(lái)。我們都知道，“thorny”的意思是“荊棘”，通過(guò)構(gòu)詞法我們可以知道，n+y構(gòu)成了這個(gè)詞的形容詞形式。由此也可知道，該詞的詞義是“棘手的”。5D考點(diǎn)：這是一個(gè)主旨題；考的是文章的題目。解析：本文開(kāi)頭直接提到首相府邸新嬰兒的出生。然后對(duì)母子的情況作了簡(jiǎn)要的報(bào)告。整篇文章都是對(duì)布萊爾夫人生小孩的報(bào)道，所以，最符合原文的題目應(yīng)該是D。Bgetsbtodosth.意為讓某人做11.Cwhere=inwhich,“where.，thereare.”指哪兒有.，就有.在本句中

25、，where引導(dǎo)地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ).Bdistinguishrightfromwrong的意思是分清是非，是固定搭配。所以B是正確答案。A的意思是感覺(jué)、覺(jué)察”，C的意思是看到、發(fā)現(xiàn)”，D的意思是觀察”均不符合題意。.Cwouldrather+句子（過(guò)去時(shí)）（虛擬語(yǔ)氣）：dratheryoudidnttellanyonewhatIsaid.你最好別告訴任何人我所說(shuō)的話。Idratheryoucamewithme.你還是和我一起來(lái)吧。Bexcept和exceptfor都是介詞，后面接短語(yǔ)。而exceptthat和exceptwhen后面接賓語(yǔ)從句。that在從句中只起連接作用。而when在從句中做狀語(yǔ)。如：

26、Sheknewnothingabouthisjourneyexceptthathewaslikelytobeawayforthreemonths.關(guān)于他們的旅行她不清楚，只知道他大概要離開(kāi)三個(gè)月。（that在賓語(yǔ)從句中只起連接作用）Hewasamanoffinecharacterinallpointsexceptthathewasrathertimid.他在各方面都很好，除了有點(diǎn)膽小。而本句要選擇exceptwhen，因?yàn)閣hen在從句中做狀語(yǔ)。C“l(fā)ookinto”的意思是“調(diào)查”，本句的意思是“我保證一到那就調(diào)查這件事情”?！發(fā)ookfor”：尋找。Willyouhelpmelookfor

27、mygloves?你能幫我尋找我的手套嗎？lookin:朝里面看。IlookedinmypurseanddiscoveredIdonlygotaf-ipvoeundnote.我朝錢包里一看，發(fā)現(xiàn)只有一張五英鎊的鈔票。lookafter:照顧、照看。Hehaslookedafterhiselderlyparentsformanyyears.他照料年邁的父母已經(jīng)多年了。Dmakeout有“辨認(rèn)出、聽(tīng)出”的意思。又如：Itwasdifficulttomakeoutwhatwassaidovertheloudspeakerinthesquare.很難聽(tīng)清楚廣場(chǎng)上的擴(kuò)音喇叭里在說(shuō)什么。makefor:走

28、向，朝前進(jìn)。Itslate,wedbettermakeforhome.時(shí)間不早了，我們最好趕快回家。Makeforthebeach!向海灘前進(jìn)！makesure:設(shè)法保證。Hewentroundmakingsurethatallthewindowswereclosed.他巡視了一遍，看看所有的窗戶是否都已關(guān)上。makeover:翻新、改造。Thehousehasbeenmadeoverintoaschool.房屋已經(jīng)改成一所學(xué)校。Humannaturecantbemadeoversoeasily.人性并非那么容易改變的。B這句話的意思是：我到處找食用油，但是一點(diǎn)也沒(méi)有找到.注意little一點(diǎn)

29、，一些；雖然也用于修飾不可數(shù)名詞，但是表達(dá)否定含義.它前面有一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折詞but，說(shuō)明后句與前句的關(guān)系，結(jié)果應(yīng)該是與找油的目的相反的含義，找了，但是沒(méi)有找到所以用B.15.B繁重的工作之后他感到很累，就躺到床上睡了現(xiàn)在分詞形式做伴隨狀語(yǔ)16.Abyfar強(qiáng)調(diào)比較級(jí)或最高級(jí)，在強(qiáng)調(diào)比較級(jí)時(shí)，比較級(jí)前也要用the.17.Dfeellikedoingsth.意為想做某事18.A你將很快適應(yīng)這里的氣候，然后氣溫的變化就不會(huì)影響你了.注意：beusedtosth/doingsth和getusedtosth./dointsth.都表示習(xí)慣于14.A我們剛坐下就發(fā)現(xiàn)是該走的時(shí)間了句子倒裝這種形式會(huì)經(jīng)常考到nos

30、oonerthan固定結(jié)構(gòu)，引起19.Bexceptfor除“了外”，前后不屬于同一性質(zhì)，常用來(lái)表示可惜或者美中不足的語(yǔ)氣，例如，本題前半部分講到的是你的寫作發(fā)好，而后半部分講到一些拼寫錯(cuò)誤，前后顯然不屬于同一性質(zhì)；except是除了之外，前后屬于同一性質(zhì)；besides,inadditionto都指除了，還有20.D正確.新思想往往要到若干年后才能被完全接受新思想是被接受的，所以要用被動(dòng)形式，故D選項(xiàng)21C我哥哥在加利福尼亞度假，我真希望她在這兒，這樣他就能幫我修我的車了。Wish后面用虛擬語(yǔ)氣，與現(xiàn)在事實(shí)相反，用一般過(guò)去式。22.B應(yīng)改為：going，介詞后面的動(dòng)詞用其ing形式，為伴隨情

31、況。23.C應(yīng)把not去掉。因?yàn)閔ardly這個(gè)單詞本身就含有否定的意義。24.A應(yīng)改為：whatever.不管一個(gè)人的社會(huì)角色是什么，記著努力工作和為人民服務(wù)都是應(yīng)該的。25D在美國(guó)，男女關(guān)系非常處得非常近甚至于長(zhǎng)期居住在一起，但是也無(wú)意考慮結(jié)婚。這里marry是及物動(dòng)詞，后面沒(méi)有接賓語(yǔ).故D改為：tobemarried.26.A這些學(xué)生希望被提供工作機(jī)會(huì)，應(yīng)該用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。故A項(xiàng)應(yīng)改為tobeoffered.27.C應(yīng)改為：getsused.28.B這句話是說(shuō)：不止一次地，我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己盡管提前已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備了但到時(shí)個(gè)還是懷疑自己的決定。這里doubt不能用原形，應(yīng)改為doubting.形式：foundsbdoing29.Bcriticizesbfor(doing)s
