简析:
1.此题中包含固定短语devote…to，其中to 为介词，后面应接定名
词。动词devote后接的宾语为all，all又为先行词，后又包含一个
定语从句:he could (do)。此题很容易误以为could后应接动词原形，
而易选为A。答案为D。
2.此题应该首先把句子结构分析清楚。句中Everything既作句子的主
语，又作先行词，后接定语从句(that) he had，而had been taken 是
过去完成时的被动态作句子的谓语。此题的意思为“在他返回家乡之
前，他所有的一切都被拿走了”。故选C。
3.此题中包含句型结构spend … (in) doing sth., 其中题中spent
的宾语为much time , much time作为先行词，后又接定语从句he could
(spend)。故选A。
4.题中difficulty为先行词，后接定语从句(that) I have ，实际上
14
构成一个固定句型:have difficulty (in) doing sth.。因为in 可以省略，
所以选B。
5.此题中也包含一个定语从句we spoke to，the person既作先行词，又作句
子的主语，要填入的应该是句子的谓语，根据句子的需要，应选过去时。本题中的
to为陷阱，实际上它属于定语从句中，而不影响主句的谓语动词。故D正确。
6.同上题一样，句中包含定语从句we referred to，所缺成份为句子的谓语，
又根据句中的tomorrow，故用将来时。选B。
7.同理，此句中的定语从句包含短语look forward to，虽然to 为介词，但
并不影响主句的谓语动词，只是一个陷阱而矣。又根据句中的soon，应用将来时，故选B。
8.同样，句中包含的定语从句we talked about中about虽为介词，但不影响主句的谓语，又根据后面的时间状语为last week，故应选C。 9.此句也包含定语从句whose songs we are fond of，其中of 虽为介词，但不影响主句的谓语动词，而句中时间状语为next week，故选C。
10.此题中由于Not only 置于句首，故用部分倒装结构。第一个has助动词，是句中谓语动词has been sold中has的提前。第二个has为实义动词，属于定语从句中，表示“有”的意思。本句的意思为:不但是她所有的珠宝，而且还有她的房子一起已经被卖掉作为她儿子的赌债了。答案为C。
11.此题为省略句。Lost in thought 相当于Because he was lost in
thought。短语be lost in 表状态，表示“陷入……”。故选C。 12.此题也为省略句。连词once后省略了主语the search，从句“once begun”相当于“once the search is begun”。答案为D。 13.此题也是一个省略回答，完整的回答是:Putting on weight made
the woman so upset。用动名词短语作主语。故选C。
14.此题选C，考查的是不定式做目的状语。此句是利用被动结构设置陷阱。转化为主动态是:(We) should make good use of time to learn
our lessons well。
15.此题实际上是考查强调句型it…that…，只是用一般疑问句形式增加了难度而矣。故选D。
15
16.本题考查的是倒装结构。正常语序为:Lost time will never come
back again。其中lost 为过去分词作定语，表示“失去了的时间”。故选C。
17.首先根据回答totally by chance可知，问句是问有关方式的问题，故第一空应填how;其次，问句是强调句型的一种特殊疑问句形式，强调的是方式状语how。故选B。
18.此题实际上考查的也是强调句型的特殊疑问句形式，强调的是疑问词what。而答案B不是疑问语序。故选A。
19.本题可以改为:This factory is _____ you visited the other day.
句中is 后面无表语，后面定语从句也没有先行词，故填入既做表语又做先行词的the one。所以答案为A。
20.此题考查的是强调句型中又包含主语从句的情况。What she heard wither ears是由what引导的主语从句。第二空中的that则为强调句型中的that。故答案为A。
21.此题为感叹句。句中有系动词sound，它后面应接形容词。该句可改
为:What the six blind men said sounded foolish. 故选B。 22本题仍考查的是强调句型。该句可还原为:The old man spent the
whole morning at home (in) repairing the old clock。故选B。 23.此题与第19题相比，19题中的visited 为及物动词，而本题中的stay为不及物动词，in your letter中的in 不可与stay 连用。此题可改为:This hotel is where you said we were to stay in your
letter. 实际上是由where 引导的表语从句，而不可看作由the one 作先行词的定语从句。答案为B。
24.此题是以插入语设置陷阱。you thought of 为插入语，不影响to take care of 作the way 的定语。答案为B。
