2. The bus moved slowly in the thick fog. We arrived at our ______almost two hours later.
A.designation
B.destiny
C.destination
D.dignity
正确答案:C
解析:本题考查名词辨析。空前的arrived at提示,本空应填表示“地点”的名词,故答案为destination“目的地”。designation意为“指派,指定;命名”。destiny意为“命运”。dignity意为“尊严”。句意为:公共汽车在浓雾中缓慢地移动,我们几乎两个小时之后才到达目的地。
3. It is imperative that students ______their term papers on time.
A.handing in
B.handed in
C.hand in
D.would hand in
正确答案:C

4. Ms. Ono rarely gives interviews becau she believes the news media have______her and treated her badly.
A.publicized
B.misreprented
C.eulogized
D.acclaimed
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查动词辨析。根据“小野女士很少接受采访,因为她认为新闻媒体对她不好”推断,新闻媒体对她报道不实,四个选项中只有misreprented(误述,对……做不准确的叙述,歪曲)符合语义,故为答案。publicize意为“宣传,宣扬,推广”;eulogize意为“歌颂,赞美”;acclaim意为“称赞,赞扬”。
5. He came into the manager’s office______ that he was dismisd.
A.only to be told
B.being told
C.in order to be told
D.telling
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查非谓语动词。动词不定式用来表示结果,尤其是表示不曾料想或不希望发生的动作时,可在前加only。分析句子可知,他走进经理办公室后,应该是被告知,故用动词不定式的被动式,所以答案为[A]项。
6. In the ______of the hurricane, many people’s homes were destroyed.
A.result
B.aftermath
C.conquence
D.upshot
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查名词的词义辨析。result意为“结果,效果”,为普通用词,含义广泛,侧重
因某种原因所产生的最终结果,而不是眼前的结果。aftermath意为“后果,余波”,尤指灾难或不幸事件的后果,符合空后的hurricane…homes were destroyed的语义,故为答案。conquence意为“结果,后果”,多指某一事件引起的必然或自然的结果,不强调直接的因果关系,而侧重事件发展的逻辑关系。upshot意为“最终结果,结局”,是一种决定性结果。
7. His family was subjected to a (n) ______attack by the gang.
A.tedious
B.hideous
C.evil
D.notorious
正确答案:B
解析:本题考查形容词的词义辨析。tedious意为“乏味的,单调的,冗长的”。hideous意为
“(事件、经历或行动)极可恶的,非常痛苦的,令人难以忍受的”,符合空后attack by the gang(匪帮的袭击)的语义,故为答案。evil意为“邪恶的,坏的”。notorious意为“声名狼藉的;臭名昭著的”。句意为:他的家人遭到了匪帮的恐怖袭击。
8. By the end of the 19th century Arthur Rackham was devoting most of his time to book______, though he also drew for magazine.
A.illustration
B.designation
C.restoration
D.identification
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查名词词义辨析。根据空后的drew for magazine推断,Arthur Rackham(亚瑟.拉克姆)是位画家,空格所填名词应与图画有关,book illustration意为“图书插图;书
籍插图”,故答案为[A]项。designation意为“名称,称号”。restoration意为“(旧建筑、家居的)修复,整修;(法律、税收、整体的)重新采用,恢复”。identification意为“身份证明;鉴定,验明,认出”。

B.a, /, a
C.the, the, the
