25、有。答案:B11解析:考查固定结构。the比较级.,the比较级.表示“越越”;hard的比较级为harder,more不能修饰比较级,故选A。答案:A12解析:考查名词辨析。target目标;commitment承诺;consensus共识(后接about/on sth.);coincidence巧合。句意为:经过讨论,与会专家们最终就如何有效解决这一问题达成了共识。答案:C13解析:考查介词短语辨析。in short简而言之;in return作为回报;in doubt不确定的;in turn反过来。句意为:人类的知识来源于实践,反过来又为实践服务。答案:D14解析:考查时态。进行时有“暂
