18、y from2.put up3.are going up4.A number of5.so far6.Nothing can change his mind.1.Bthe way后面的定语从句缺少宾语，因此使用that，which或省略不用。2Bas far as I know就我所知，固定句型。as long as只要；和一样长；as well as与一样好；也，又；as often as与一样经常。3Cprefer to do.rather than do.宁愿而不愿，故选C。同义词组还有：would rather do.than do.，would do.rather than do.，
19、prefer doing.to doing.。4Dget back恢复。5CWould you like to do.为固定句型。6B句意为：经过这么多年在影视圈内艰苦的工作，她终于成功了。make it在此句中表示“成功”。mean it也是一个习语，意为“当真”。7Bget away from sp.离开某地。8Cthe number of修饰名词作主语时，谓语动词用单数；而a number of修饰名词作主语时，谓语动词用复数。故本题选C项。9D受思维定势的影响，易误选A项。关系代词或副词的选择要看它在从句中充当的成分，about后缺少宾语，且它引导的句子作定语从句，只有which符合条
20、件。10Bthe unemployed同the young，the old等一样，表示类别，意为“失业者”，谓语动词用复数。.1.A人们现在考虑生活究竟是什么。因为物质上的追求开始使大量的人陷入困惑之中，给他们带来了烦恼。2Deat up ones life消耗掉某人的生活。3D根据“.or energy for family or hobbies.”可知应选time。4A根据下文人们选择downshifting作为一种生活方式，显然这里应填other，表示人们开始转向其他的生活方式。5B根据“.downshifting is one of them.”以及下文中“One couple who
21、 downshifted are Daniel and Liz.”可得出答案。6Cused to do sth.过去常常做某事。7Bwould do表示过去常发生的动作。8DDaniel和Liz夫妇每天都要去上班，而把孩子留给保姆照看，故用leaving。9A由于路途遥远，当然是乘飞机去，可知选fly。10Cbut表示转折。11B根据最后一段中的“.looking after the animals.”可知选farm。12Dmake a decision作决定。13B根据but知应用worth“值得的”。14Bthink twice仔细地、慎重地考虑。15B根据常识，在downshift之前，虽然忙忙碌碌，但他们各自有自己的休假时间，现在居住在乡村，当然就没有假期了。16C孩子们有父母陪伴，当然比以前更快乐了。17ALiz在谈她过去的工作：即使再艰苦，时间再长，但她还是很喜欢的。18D从忙碌的工作到隐居在乡村，再加上又不是真正在乡村长大的，要适应乡村生活当然是“慢慢地、逐步地”了。19C虽然适应乡村生活还需要时间，但有一件事情Liz的确很喜爱，即能够更多地和孩子们在一起。20Dthe same表示做同样的事情，即“downshift”。
