91.______successfulcandidatesarenotalwaysthebesteducated;theyarethebestdivainedinthetechniqueofworkingunderduress.參考答案：82.it→them代詞誤用。結(jié)合上下文不難判斷出，此處的代詞應(yīng)指代前面的“examinations”，指“許多事情都要通過考試才能解決”。83.on介詞誤用。根據(jù)上下文可知，此處要表達的意思是“那些事情都不重要”，count單獨使用時表示“重要，有意義，有價值”。counton意為“依靠，指望”。故此處應(yīng)刪掉介詞on。84.you→him代詞誤用。此處的代詞應(yīng)與前半句話中的his和he保持代詞的前后一致性，故應(yīng)將you改為o介詞誤用。enter在此作及物動詞，相當(dāng)于“comeorgointo”，原句中的介詞into是多余的，故應(yīng)刪掉。86.embarked∧→on詞匯錯誤。embark單獨使用時表示“乘船，登機”，而embarkon意為“從事，著手，開始做”。結(jié)合句意可知，此處應(yīng)加上介詞on。87.nothing→anything根據(jù)上下文可以推測出，作者在此要表達的意思是“考試絕對實現(xiàn)不了這一點”。nothingbut意為“只不過，僅僅”，而anythingbut意為“根本不，絕對不”。因此，應(yīng)將nothing改為anything。88.∧restrict→to語法錯誤。根據(jù)前半句中的“motiveastudenttoreadwidely”可知，restricthisreading和read

widely是并列結(jié)構(gòu)，因此應(yīng)在restrict前加上介詞to使其完整。句子大意為“考試并沒有促使學(xué)生們的廣泛閱讀，反而限制了他們的閱讀范圍”。89.off→of介詞誤用。本題考查的是deprive與介詞的搭配，depriveof意為“剝奪，失去”，故應(yīng)將off改為of。90.reducing→reduced詞匯錯誤。bereducedto意為“陷入某種不好的狀況，淪落到”，為固定搭配。因此，應(yīng)將reducing改為reduced。91.√[問答題]13.TherearefiveIQTestQuestionsinthispart.Writeyouranswersontheanswersheet.ChristmasDayisonFriday.ThreedaysaftertomorrowisChristmasDay.Whichofthefollowingstatementsmustbedivue?A.TodayisSunday.B.ThedaybeforeyesterdaywasSaturday.C.TomorrowisWednesday.D.YesterdaywasMonday.參考答案：B.參考解析：圣誕節(jié)是星期五，從明天起三天后是圣誕節(jié)，可知今天是周一，那么前天便是周六了。所以B項正確。[問答題]14.IfFRTZZisthecodeforESSAY,whatisthecodeforPAPER?參考答案：QZQDS參考解析：由ESSAY的代碼是FRTZZ可知對應(yīng)原則：ESSAY中的各字母分別與字母表中“后一個字母、前一個字母、后一個字母、前一個字母、后一個字母”相對應(yīng)得到FRTZZ。依此推得PAPER的代碼為QZQDS。[問答題]15.Whatnumbershouldreplacethequestionmark?參考答案：2參考解析：根據(jù)觀察可知，4+8+9=2×10+1，3+4+5=1×10+2，所以，8＋7＋8=？×10+3，從而得出？為2。[問答題]16.OnlyoneotherwordcanbemadefromallthelettersofINSATIBLE.Whatisit?參考答案：BANALITIES.參考解析：banality平庸，陳腐[問答題]17.Youarecompetinginaraceandovertaketherunnerinsecondplace.Whatpositionareyouinnow?參考答案：Second.參考解析：overtaketherunnerinsecondplace追上了居第二的選手，因此你現(xiàn)在就是第二。[問答題]18.I(10marks)ReadtheinformalnotethatJohnElliottsenttohisProductionDirector,MartinGilmourPleaserewritetheletterasaformalmemoofabout100wordsontheanswersheet.Theinformationinthenotemustbeincludedandclearlyclarified.參考答案：[問答題]19.II(20marks)Writeaboutthefollowingtopic.Whenpeopletietheknot,theyusuallygetsomenecessitiesindifferentages.Nowadays,withtheincreasinglysoaringhousingprice,doyoustillthinkpurchasinganapartmentisnecessaryformarriage?Writeyourarticleinabout160wordsinanappropriatestyleontheanswersheet,givingreasonsforyouranswer,andincludinganyrelevantexamplesfromyourownknowledgeorexperience.參考答案：PurchasinganApartmentisNecessaryforMarriageWhenpeopletietheknot,theyusuallygetsomenecessitiesindifferentages.Nowadays,thoughhousingpriceissoaring,Istillthinkthatpurchasinganapartmentisnecessaryformarriage.Ontheonehand,homeisveryimportantforeveryone.Formymoney,ahousewhichisrentedcan’tbecalledhomeinourChinesetraditionalconcepts.What’smore,homecanbringusthesenseofsecurityandmostofussearchitinmarriage.Sotosomeextent,purchasinganapartmentcanfulfillourneedinthisaspect.Ontheoth
