7、用虚拟语气一样，它们所对应的名词的同位语从句和表语从句也要求使用虚拟语气，即：should+动词原形。故选A。解析：选A。上句询问“迟到的原因”，因此下句中的名词应是与“迟到”意义有关的名词，所以只能选择“延误”。3. recognizevt. 辨认出；承认；公认常用结构：recognize sb. 认出某人recognize ones voice听出某人的声音recognize . as . 认定；承认为recognize sb./sth. . to be .认为某人/某事物是recognize that .承认When he walked out of the station, I rec

12、ions under my direction重点短语5. more than one意为“不止一个”，虽然在意义上表示复数，但作主语或修饰主语时，谓语动词用单数，与many a(许多)用法一样；如果more修饰复数可数名词再跟than one作主语时，其谓语动词则要用复数。More than one member has protested against the proposal. 不止一个成员反对这个建议。More than one person has been concerned in this.这里面涉及的不仅是一个人。More persons than one have been

16、why提出的问题只能用because。在强调句型中，也只能用because。as用于解释做某事的原因，语气较弱，通常位于主句前。since表示的原因是指人们已知的事实，常意为“既然”。语气比because弱，但比as强。通常位于主句前，并常与as换用。for并列连词，连接并列分句，表示一种补充说明，是推测或判断的理由，语气较弱，不可位于主句前。有时可表示直接原因，相当于because。 高手过招单项填空 People crowded on the road and could not go forward the traffic accident some cars had made.（201

31、ting（1）解析：选C。插入语generally speaking意为“一般来说”是固定搭配，指常规。解析：选A。judging from为固定搭配，在这里judging不与the man形成逻辑上的主动或被动关系。wear, have on, dress都有“穿，戴”的意思，但搭配和意义不同。wear和have on都可以表示“穿着”的状态，然而have on没有进行时态；dress可以作及物和不及物动词，作不及物动词的意思是“穿衣”，作及物动词时宾语是人。(2）such上述一类的；诸如此类的联想拓展no such.as没有这样的such as例如such.as.像这样的such.that
