28、not until dark,故第一个空用that构成强调句型;第二个空用what引导宾语从句,并且what在从句中作主语。答案:A13解析:set forth意为“启程”;set up意为“建立”;set foot on意为“到达”;set off意为“动身;使爆炸”。句意为“第一个到达南极洲大陆的人”。答案:C14解析:句意为:狄更斯的父亲从监狱出来后他才有机会去上学。此处not until从句置于句首,后面的主句用部分倒装。答案:D15解析:考查动词辨析。句意为:如果你不重视老师的建议,迟早会后悔的。用value表示“重视”。其他动词的含义不符合语意。答案:C.阅读理解语篇解读本文是一篇
