B 句意：随着公司业务的扩大，经理正在考虑雇用更多
9、的职员。take on雇用；接受，与语境相符。2. A 句意：无论什么季节，这位律师除了套装外，很少穿其他衣服。whatever引导让步状语从句时，如果上下文意思清楚，可以省略已经清楚的部分。本句中whatever the season后省略了is。3. B 句意：对他来说，戏剧表演只是一种谋生的方法。the stage在本句中的意思是“戏剧表演，舞台艺术”；第二空泛指一种谋生的方法。4. D 句意：我将去外地出差。你介意帮我照顾一下猫吗？一点也不介意。我愿意（照顾你的猫）。选项D与语境相符。5. A as if引导的状语从句采用省略形式，完整表达为: as if she was expect
10、ing a visit from someone.。expectfrom是固定搭配，意思是“期待，盼望”。句意：这位女士站在客厅里，好像期待着某个人的来访。6. A 句意：周五前你能完成这份报告吗？我不能保证，但我会尽我最大的努力。guarantee担保，保证，与语境相符。7. A 句意：詹姆斯把杂志从小桌上拿开给电视腾出地方。make room for为腾出地方。8. C 句意：他每次来看我，都给我带一份精美的礼物。every time是名词短语用作连词，引导时间状语从句。every time“每次”；by the time“到为止”；next time“下一次”，虽然可以引导一个时间状语从
11、句，但语意不通；at times“有时，间或”，不可作连词。故选C。9. C 考查分词形容词。一般-ing形式的分词形容词意思是“令人的”；-ed形式的分词形容词意思是“（人）感到的”。根据题意可知，第一空修饰news，意思是“令人惊奇的消息”，故用amazing；第二空修饰voice, a surprised voice意为“感到惊奇的声音”，此处指“他”因为这个消息而感到惊奇，故用surprised。句意：他用惊奇的声音告诉我这个令人惊奇的消息。10. C 句意：汤姆，不要取笑那个可怜的小女孩，规矩些。你忘记学校的规定了吗？make fun of取笑；behave oneself表现良好，
12、守规矩。11. B such在句中为限定词，当它与数词或不定代词any, some, all, no等连用时，常置于它们之后，但与不定冠词连用时，则置于不定冠词之前。12. A 考查非谓语动词。过去分词短语called Expedition Robinson修饰名词reality TV show，表示被动含义，与语境相符。13. C 句意：我不知道既然他拥有一个大公司，是镇上最富的人，他为什么还是不高兴。就像谚语所说：幸福并不在于财富和金子，幸福的感觉存在于人的灵魂深处。A项意为：只有一个人能让你快乐，那个人就是你自己。B项意为：拥有许多兴趣的人活得不仅最长久，而且最快乐。D项意为：要想幸福，
13、一个人必须爱自己以及他人。14. B 句意：他希望去国外，但是他父母已经决定除非他从银行借钱，否则不支持他。由句意可知应用现在完成时，表示事情在过去的某个时间已经发生，且持续到现在。15. B 考查情态动词。句意：村民们都很感谢他，没有他的帮助，通向这个村庄的路不可能修成。could have done可用于表示推断已经完成或过去发生的事情，与语境相符。完形填空。Education from My FatherMy memories of my father are slim because he was so sick in the last years of his life.But th
