43、我们对待失败的态度。matter重要,有关系,符合句意。apply申请,应用;stress加压力于,强调;function运作,起作用。23C 24【解析】选C。force “武力,势力”;power “动力,权力”;part “地区,角色”;effect “效果,作用,影响”,take effect “生效,起作用”。25 C 26 【解析】选D。 be devoted to “致力于”;be related to “与有联系”;be connected to “与相关联”;be addicted to “对上瘾”。由句意知D项正确。27【解析】选D考查情态动词的用法。此题出的其实比较怪异,
44、最合适的选项应该是should,但是选项里没有,所以只能按照给出的选项进行排除。can和could用于描述能力,在这里不合适。此题选择must,但是命题思路并不是很好,原因在于上文中提到的might很容易对应出may的选项,而这里用may似乎并没有任何问题。28【解析】选C。句意:每次我去拜访他,他都不在。the moment一就; any time任何时候;so far as就而言,到程度。29B 30【解析】选D。考查it 用法。it 是形式主语,而真正的主语是that引导的宾语从句。3134 DCDB35【答案】【解析】选A考查形容词的比较级。句意:我们会想出一个更好的方法让乘客很快上机
