4、Christ. A. in favour ofB. in place ofC. in honour ofD. at memory of1. D dozen意为“一打,十二个”,与数词连用时要用单数形式;与of连用时要用复数形式。dozens of为固定短语,意为“若干,许许多多”。2. A 此处honour作动词,意为“给予光荣”。句意为“总统的来访使他们感到光荣”。3. C 此题题干中的空前有数词two修饰,dozen不能加-s,其后也不能加of,故选C。4. B score,dozen等与数词或many,several连用时,score不加-s;afford“买得起”,故选B。5. D refuse“拒绝”;deny“否定”;lose“丢失”;ignore“忽视”。由对话语境可知,他没有理我就走了过去,因此只有D项符合句意。6. B 第一个空填the,特指大家都知道的那位总统;第二个空格honour前用不定冠词an,指“一种荣耀”。7. C in honour of the birth of Jesus Christ意为“为了纪念耶稣基督诞生”。
