参考答案与解析

11. How can I concentrate if you _________ continually ______

me with silly questions?

A. have… interrupted

B. are… interrupted

C. had… interrupting

D. were… interrupting

选A。 虽然我觉得更应该说you are continually interrupting

me with silly questions。不过这里用现在完成时表示的是一个动作发生过成为过去经历,有可能多次发生,也就是打断一次、两次、三次等等不断重复到现在。

A. It may take a long time to find a solution to the problem.

13. She is a better speaker than _____ in the class.

A. any boy

B. the other boys

C. other any girl

选A。 主语是she,女的,所以不能选B。C的正确说法是any other girl。

14. Nobody heard him sing, ______?

A. did one

B. did he

C. didn’t they

D. did they

选B。根据专四语法出题依据的书《新编英语语法教程》(章振邦)317页,nobody这种附加疑问句,书面语里用he。口语里偶见they。实际上,现代英语里为了避免有语言歧视(为什么只有he,没有she),很多人都避免只用he,而多改为they。

15. I can’t put up with ________. -

欢迎下载 3 A. that friend of you

B. that friend of yours

C. the friend of you

D. the friend of yours

选B。根据专四语法出题依据的书《新编英语语法教程》(章振邦)57-58页,这种双重属格结构所修饰的名词可带a, any,

some等表示非确定特指的限定词,但通常不带定冠词。比如a daughter of Mrs. Green’s, any/some daughters of Mrs/

Green’s。

D. for mention

选B。deserve后面接动名词表示被动含义。要么就说deserve

to be mentioned。

18. The audience ______ excited on seeing _______ favorite

star glide onto the stage.

A. were…their

B. were…its

C. was…their

D. was…one’s

选A。虽然audience这个集合名词和class, team等一样属于可单可复,但用代词回指时要保持数的一致性。所以 C错了,要用its。

decision.

A. Hadn’t it been for

B. Had it not been for

C. Had it been for

D. Had not it been for

21. The Attorney General ordered a federal autopsy of Brown’s

body, seeking to ___ the family and community there would be

a thorough investigation into his death.

A. ensure B. insure C. assure D. ascertain

选C。assure somebody that/ assure somebody of something指to tell someone that something will definitely happen or is

definitely true so that they are less worried,也可以用reassure。Ensure是make sure的意思,后面不能接somebody。Ascertain是find out

public church rally那部分。出题人把姓名去掉,稍加修改。

23. The Foreign Secretary tried to ______ doubts about his

handling of the crisis.

A. dispel B. expel C. repel D. quell

选A。dispel指to remove fears, doubts, and false ideas, usually

by proving them wrong or unnecessary。Expel比喻义指to force

someone to leave a school, organization, or country。Repel指People or things that repel you make you feel strongly that you

do not want to be near, see, or think about them。Quell一般指to end a situation in which people are behaving violently or

protesting, especially by using force。但是《朗文当代英语词典》、《柯林斯》、《剑桥高阶》等字典里收录或者列出了quell

panic/fear/doubts。出题者这里不够严谨。

between people。
