A．The city is now ten times its original size.

B．I wish I had two times his strength.

正确答案：B

解析：在“主语+谓语+倍数+the size(amount，length．．．)+of．．”结构中，名词一般是表示尺寸、数量、长度、价格等的可数名词，而B中的“力气”是不可数抽象名词，不能用于这个结构，所以本题选B。 知识模块：语法与词汇

5． He was _______ to tell the truth even to his closest friend.

A．too much of a coward

B．too much the coward

C．a coward enough

D．enough of coward

正确答案：A

解析：too…to结构表示“太……而不能”；much of a+名词，意为“称得上……的”，“具有……属性的”，此结构通常用于否定含义。两者合起来即“太具有(胆小鬼的)特性了，而不敢……”。 知识模块：语法与词汇

6． The Clarks haven’t decided yet which hotel_______.

A．to stay

B．is to stay

Simon’s disappearance作表语sure的补足语。因此选A。 知识模块：语法与词汇

正确答案：D

解析：A中for the sake of your friends意为“为你朋友着想”，是主句的目的；B中as well as意为“和你一样”，表示比较；C中for an his efforts意为“尽管他非常努力”，表示让步，所以都不是正确答案。只有D项“由于过量阅读，她的眼睛都红了。”正确。 知识模块：语法与词汇

11． _______, he is ready to accept suggestions from different sources.

A．Instead of his contributions

B．For all his notable contributions

C．His making notable contributions

D．However his notable contributions

正确答案：B

解析：题干后半部分为结构完整的句子，因此空格部分最可能填入状语。B项是介词短语，for all“尽管，虽然”表示让步，后接名词短语或that从句，B项符合句意，故正确。A项instead of介词短语用在句首作状语时，一般表示“不是……而是……”，不合句意；C项是动名词短语，不能作状语；D项however可以用来引导让步性状语从句，但不能直接跟名词或动名词，如在本句中应为however notable his contributions(are)。 知识模块：语法与词汇

12． Which of the following sentences expresses WILLINGNESS?

A．By now she will be eating dinner.

B．I shall never do that again.

解析：will可以用于描述将要发生的动作，也可以表示主语的“意愿、决心或承诺”，A项的will be doing表示按照安排将要发生的事情，D项中的will表示意愿，D为正确答案。shall在疑问句中用于征求对方意见，主要用于第一人称，意为“……好吗?”；shall用于陈述句中，表示说话者的允诺、告诫、命令等，主要用于第二、第三人称，有时用于第一人称，表示决心，选项B表示决心，选项C表示许诺，注意此处表示的是说话人的许诺。 知识模块：语法与词汇
