25、室乱七八糟。今天你值日。对不起，我马上打扫。由语境可知，是由于自己的疏忽没有值日才使办公室一团糟，故这里应表示道歉之意。B项符合语境。答案：B2解析：考查代词辨析。句意为：你想去看那部电影吗？据说相当不错。我恐怕去不了。我今天心情不好。make it为常用口语表达，根据情景不同有不同的意思，在此意为“办到，做到”。答案：B3解析：考查冠词。语意为：Henry作为一个驾驶学员是失败的，因为他又一次没有通过驾驶考试。a failure表示“一个失败者”，此处failure表示“失败的人”，其前用不定冠词a；the driving test特指“驾驶考试”，第二空用定冠词the。答案：C4解析：考查
26、名词辨析。句意为：我确实想给你签证，但你知道我们的规定非常严格。真遗憾！但还是谢谢你。A项意为“习惯”；B项意为“海关，习俗”；C项意为“规章，规则，规定”；D项意为“目标，靶子”。根据语境可知，答案选C。答案：C5解析：考查非谓语动词。句意为：据说愚人节的传统开始于十六世纪。分析句子成分可知，主语The April Fools tradition与start之间是主谓关系，故排除B、C两项；又因start这一动作在谓语动词动作之前已经完成，故用不定式的完成式。答案：D6解析：考查介词。句意为：尽管事实上很多的驾驶员都受过培训，但是我们再怎么强调交通安全的重要性也不为过。根据句意可知应选B，表
27、示“尽管”。C项、D项都是连词，后只能跟句子；A项“幸亏，由于”，不符合句意。答案：B7解析：考查名词辨析。句意为：好的教育体系应该包括学生课堂所学知识的实际运用。A.应用，申请；B.职业，占领；C.联合；D.庆祝。根据句意可知，本句话强调知识要学以致用。答案：A8解析：考查句型。句意为：他突然想起来，他的父母现在应该到北京了。此句中的it作形式主语，后面的从句为真正的主语。注意句型It occurred to sb.that.某人(突然)想起/想到。答案：B9解析：考查名词性从句。句意为：成功的人总是很聪明。他们能发现别人容易忽略的东西。宾语从句“_others easily ignore”
28、缺少宾语，故选what。答案：A10解析：make a life习惯于新的生活方式、工作等，符合题意。make sense讲得通；明白；make progress取得进步；make ones way向前。答案：C11解析：考查短语意义。句意为：失败是成功之母，保持你的勇气，你一定会成功的。keep up保持，符合题意。keep off不提(某话题)，避免；keep out遮掩，避开；keep on继续。答案：C12解析：考查动词的时态和语态。句意为：在过去的几个星期里，中国北方的许多城市一直遭受着浓雾天气，给人们带来了极大的不便。由“In the past several weeks”可知，此
29、处应用现在完成进行时，表示从过去某一时间开始一直延续到现在，可能还要继续下去，且many cities与suffer之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故B项正确。答案：B13解析：句意为：布朗小姐很忙，是吗？是的，她很忙。到现在为止她又承担了更大的责任。take off起飞，腾飞，脱下；take out拿出，取出；take in吸收，领会，欺骗；take on承担，呈现出，雇佣。take on responsibility承担责任，符合语境。答案：D14解析：考查非谓语动词。句意为：当我回到家时，我看到门上别着一张纸条，上面写着“很遗憾没有见到你；晚会儿我会打电话给你。”note与read之间是逻辑上的
