24、客满了。reservation预订,与题意吻合。3B本题考查同位语从句引导词的选择。句意:“昨天迈克拒绝了耶鲁大学的录取,这是真的吗?”“是的,但是我不知道他为什么这样做;那是他最喜欢的大学之一。”idea后接同位语从句,表示某个想法的具体内容。根据thats one of his favorite universities(那是他最喜欢的大学之一)可知,“我”不知道他拒绝耶鲁大学的原因(why)所在,故B项正确。when指时间,根据yesterday可排除;that引导同位语从句时无意义且不可省略;how指方式。4B句意:那种新的经过改进的设备,无疑将会增加生产。speed up“使加速,促
