hí)連用，表示自過去的某個(gè)時(shí)間之后。由句意“這艘巡洋艦三十九年以來就一直沉于海底”可知，后面是具體的時(shí)間段，此處需要一個(gè)表示時(shí)間段的介詞，只有for符合要求，故答案為B項(xiàng)。In1942,theHMSEdinburghwassunkintheBarentsSea.Itwasonits(21)______backtoBritainwithninety-oneboxesofRussiangold.(22)______thirty-nineyearsitlaythere,toodeepfordiversto(23)______.Noonewasallowedtoexplodeit,either,sincethebodiesofsixtyofthecrewalsolayinthe(24)______.Then,in1981,anex-divercalledJessopdecidedtotryusingnewdivingtechniques.(25)______hecouldnotaffordtofinancethe(26)______whichwasgoingtocostfourmillionpounds,hehadtolookforpeoplewhowere(27)______totaketherisk.(28)______,theywerenotevensurethegoldwasgoingtobethere!FirstaScottishdivingcompany,thenaGermanshippingcompanyagreedtojoinintheretrieval(29)______.Notlongafterthat,Jessop(30)______afourthcompanytotakea(31)______.Sincethegoldwasthe(32)______oftheBritishandtheSovietgovernments,theybothhopedtomakea(33)______,too!Thebiggestproblemwashowtoget(34)______thegold.Fortunately,theywereabletoexaminetheEdinburgh’ssistership,theHMSBelfozt,to(35)______outtheexactlocationofthebombroom,(36)______thegoldwasstored.Theyknewitwastobeanextremelydifficultanddangerousundertaking.Toreachthegold,theywouldhavetocutalargesquare(37)______thebodyoftheship,gothroughtheemptyfueltankanddowntothebombroom.Aftertwenty-eightdives,they(38)______tofindthefirstbar.Everyoneworked(39)______theclock,helpingtocleanandstackthegold,(40)______astofinishthejobasquicklyaspossible.[單選題]3.______.A.findB.discoverC.diveD.reach正確答案：D參考解析：find找到；discover發(fā)現(xiàn)；dive潛水；reach到達(dá)。由上文可知，此處想要表達(dá)的是潛水員無法到達(dá)如此深的地方，toodeepfordiverstoreach意為“（沉船的位置）太深以至于潛水員無法到達(dá)”，故答案為D項(xiàng)。In1942,theHMSEdinburghwassunkintheBarentsSea.Itwasonits(21)______backtoBritainwithninety-oneboxesofRussiangold.(22)______thirty-nineyearsitlaythere,toodeepfordiversto(23)______.Noonewasallowedtoexplodeit,either,sincethebodiesofsixtyofthecrewalsolayinthe(24)______.Then,in1981,anex-divercalledJessopdecidedtotryusingnewdivingtechniques.(25)______hecouldnotaffordtofinancethe(26)______whichwasgoingtocostfourmillionpounds,hehadtolookforpeoplewhowere(27)______totaketherisk.(28)______,theywerenotevensurethegoldwasgoingtobethere!FirstaScottishdivingcompany,thenaGermanshippingcompanyagreedtojoinintheretrieval(29)______.Notlongafterthat,Jessop(30)______afourthcompanytotakea(31)______.Sincethegoldwasthe(32)______oftheBritishandtheSovietgovernments,theybothhopedtomakea(33)______,too!Thebiggestproblemwashowtoget(34)______thegold.Fortunately,theywereabletoexaminetheEdinburgh’ssistership,theHMSBelfozt,to(35)______outtheexactlocationofthebombroom,(36)______thegoldwasstored.Theyknewitwastobeanextremelydifficultanddangerousundertaking.Toreachthegold,theywouldhavetocutalargesquare(37)______thebodyoftheship,gothroughtheemptyfueltankanddowntothebombroom.Aftertwenty-eightdives,they(38)______tofindthefirstbar.Everyoneworked(39)______theclock,helpingtocleanandstackthegold,(40)______astofinishthejobasquicklyaspossible.[單選題]4.______.A.wreckB.ruinC.relicD.waste正確答案：A參考解析：wreck沉船，遇難船；ruin廢墟，遺跡；relic遺體，遺物；waste荒原，荒蕪之地。前文提到，英國皇家海軍“愛丁堡號”巡洋艦于1942年在巴倫支海沉沒，英國不允許用爆破的方法，由此可推斷出該句中六十具船員的尸骸所在的位置應(yīng)在沉船內(nèi)，故答案為選A項(xiàng)。In1942,theHMSEdinburghwassunkintheBarentsSea.Itwasonits(21)______backtoBritainwithninety-oneboxesofRussiangold.(22)______thirty-nineyearsitlaythere,toodeepfordiversto(23)______.Noonewasallowedtoexplodeit,either,sincethebodiesofsixtyofthecrewalsolayinthe(24)______.Then,in1981,anex-divercalledJessopdecidedtotryusingnewdivingtechniques.(25)______hecouldnotaffordtofinancethe(26)______whichwasgoingtocostfourmillionpounds,hehadtolookforpeoplewhowere(27)______totaketherisk.(28)______,theywerenotevensurethegoldwasgoingtobethere!FirstaScottishdivingcompany,thenaGermanshippingcompanyagreedtojoinintheretrieval(29)______.Notlongafterthat,Jessop(30)______afourthcompanytotakea(31)______.Sincethegoldwasthe(32)______oftheBritishandtheSovietgovernments,theybothhopedtomakea(33)______,too!Thebiggestproblemwashowtoget(34)______thegold.Fortunately,theywereabletoexaminetheEdinburgh’ssistership,theHMSBelfozt,to(35)______outtheexactlocationofthebombroom,(36)______thegoldwasstored.Theyknewitwastobeanextremelydifficultanddangerousundertaking.Toreachthegold,theywouldhavetocutalargesquare(37)______thebodyoftheship,gothroughtheemptyfueltankanddowntothebombroom.Aftertwenty-eightdives,they(38)______tofindthefirstbar.Everyoneworked(39)______theclock,helpingtocleanandstackthegold,(40)______astofinishthejobasquicklyaspossible.[單選題]5.______.A.AlthoughB.UnlessC.AsD.If正確答案：C參考解析：although盡管，雖然；unless除非；as由于，因?yàn)?；if如果。根據(jù)下文“他無法獨(dú)自承擔(dān)搜索所需的四百萬英鎊”“不得不尋找愿意承擔(dān)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的人”可知，前面無法承擔(dān)費(fèi)用是他不得不尋找愿意承擔(dān)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的人的原因，故這里需要表示原因的連接詞，故C項(xiàng)正確。In1942,theHMSEdinburghwassunkintheBarentsSea.Itwasonits(21)______backtoBritainwithninety-oneboxesofRussiangold.(22)______thirty-nineyearsitlaythere,toodeepfordiversto(23)______.Noonewasallowedtoexplodeit,either,sincethebodiesofsixtyofthecrewalsolayinthe(24)______.Then,in1981,anex-divercalledJesso
