参考答案：
C 【知识点】考查虚拟语气的用法。
句意：如果强风继续的话，部分高速将仍然被暂时关闭。根据主句的“would +动词原形”结构判断，前面是从句，虚拟语气中当if条件状语从句含有should、had和were时可将if省略，将它们中的任何一个提到从句句首。故选C。
【举一反三】省略if的条件句
在书面语中，非真实条件句中有were, had, should时，可以省略if，而把were, had, should放在
从句主语前，从句用倒装结构。如：
Were it necessary, I might go without delay.如果需要的话，我可以立即去。（= If it were necessary......）
Had you taken my advice, you wouldn't have failed in the exam.你要是听了我的建议，就不会考试不及格了。（= If you had taken my advice......）
Should I have time, I would call on her.要是有时间，我就去看她。（= If I should have time......）

C.to deal with
D.to be dealt with
参考答案：
C
句意:公司里的许多员工说,对付Eric是不可能的。他确实很难对付。hard, difficult, easy, impossible等形容词作表语时,其后的不定式如果与主语之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,通常用不定式的主动形式,故选to deal with。

【详解】考查同位语从句。句意：Stephen Hawking最大的成就是在20世纪70年代预测宇宙黑洞能够发出能量，而传统观点认为任何事物都无法逃避重力。句中that引导同位语从句解释名词prediction的内容，that在句中不充当任何成分，只是一个引导词。故D项正确。
【点睛】本题考查了同位语从句，当同位语部分是个句子的时候，就是同位语从句，这种用法比较"固定"：
一、在复合句中用作同位语的从句叫同位语从句。它一般跟在某些名词后面，用以说明该名词表示的具体内容。
I heard the news that our team had won.我听到了我们队获胜的消息。
二、可以跟同位语从句的名词通常有news，idea，fact，promise，question，doubt，thought，hope，message，suggestion，words（消息），possibility, decision等（一般的“抽象”名词都可用）。
I’ve come from Mr. wang with a message that he won’t be able to see you this afternoon．我从王先生那里来，他让我告诉你他今天下午不能来看你了。
三、英语中引导同位语从句的词通常有连词that，whether，连接代词what，who。连接副词how, when, where等。（注：if不能引导同位语从句。）
He must answer the question whether he agrees with it or not.
他必须回答他是否同意这样一个问题。
注：that在同位语从句中不充当任何成分，只是引导词而已。
