51. Our association, which has consistently presd for greater employment opportunities for the disabled, will publish ____ proposals in the near future.
A. their B. our C. his 空位 D. its
答案：D. 考查物主代词。逗号与逗号之间的是作为插入语，是association的定语从句，在此association作为一个整体概念出现，且其定语从句中也是用单数谓语动词has presd，后面对应的物主代词也应该是单数概念的，故选D。句意：我们的协会一直在敦促给残疾人更多的就业机会，并且讲在最近公布建议书。publish公布，proposal提议；建议，press for敦促； 迫切要求。
52. Had Judy been more careful on the maths exam, she ____ much better results now.
A. would be getting B. could have got
C. must get D. would get
答案：D.考查虚拟语气（错综时间虚拟语气）。从句部分是对过去的虚拟，省略了if，因此出现倒装，但主句部分出现了明显的时间标志词now，可见是对现在的虚拟，故应该是would/could/should/might do的形式，而get为瞬间动词，不用进行时，故选D。句意：如果朱迪数学考试时更认真一些，她现在成绩就会好多了。
53. Nine is to three _____ three is to one.
A. when B. that C. which D. what
答案：D。这是专四考试频考知识点了：A is to B what C is to D，由what引导的方式状语从句。句意：9相对于3等同于3相对于1。
54. Men differ from animals ____ they can think and speak.
A. for which B. for that C. in that 早上好 英文D. in which
降低英语答案：C。这也是专四考试频考的知识点之一：in that引导原因状语从句。for that不能引导从句，A和D都引导定语从句。句意：人之所以有别于动物在于他们能思考，会说话。
55. ____ he wanted to go out with his friends at the weekend, he had to stay behind to finish his assignment.
A. Much though B. Much as C. As much D. Though much
答案：B. 考查由much as引导的让步状语从句，意为“尽管”=although。而as much意为“同样地，这样地”。A和D不是固定搭配。句意：尽管他想周末和朋友出去，却不得不留下完成作业。
56. I enjoyed mylf so much ____ I visited my friends in Paris last year.
A. when B. which C. that D. where
答案：A. 考查时间状语从句。四个选项都可以引导定语从句，但这里没有后面从句修饰的先行词，故出现的不是定语从句。从两部分之间的关系来看，后面部分提到了时间段，因此填入when，成为时间状语从句。句意：去年我去巴黎拜访朋友时玩得非常开心。
57. Which of the following is INCORRECT?
A. All his lectures were boring.
B. Half his money was gone.
C. Her few friends are all fond of dancing.
D. He invited many his friends to the party.
答案:D. 本题是今年专四试卷中出现的新题型，对英语专业同学的语法知识提出了一个更高的要求。考查的是限定词位置的用法。英语中的限定词可分为前位限定词、中位限定词和后位限定词，一个名词前的限定词只能按照前位、中位、后位的顺序出现，其中两个前位或两个中位词不能同时出现在同一个名词前。many是后位限定词，而his是中位限定词，与限定词排序规则有悖，故D为答案。A选项中all是前位，his是中位，符合规则；B中half是前位，his是中位限定词；C中her是中位，few是后位限定词。
58. When you have finished with that book, don't forget to put it back on my desk, _____?firstaid
A. do you B. don't you C. will you D. won't you
答案：C. 考查的是反义疑问句。复合句的反义疑问句应反问主句部分，本句主句是否定祈使句don’t forget to…，故祈使部分用will you。句意：你读完那本书后，别忘了把它放回我的书桌上，好吗？
ets是什么意思
59. What does "He wily refud to spend his money" mean?
A. It was wi of him to refu to spend his money.
B. He refud to spend his money in a wi manner.
C. He was short of money and didn't want to buy anything.
D. He refud, in a wi manner, to spend his money.
答案：A. 本题属于“句意理解题”，也是伴随着57题，作为08专四的新题型，着实让考生出乎意料。本题关键在于分析句中的wily是修饰refud的，还是修饰refud to spend his money的，可以直接修饰refu的副词有很多，如firmly，flatly，gracefully，politely等，但是当refu后接动词不定式短语的时候，副词修饰的就是refu to do这个动宾结构了。
如：resolutely refu to answer坚决拒绝回答。可见题干中句子的含义是：他明智地拒绝花钱（这件事情），这表示他拒绝花钱这件事是很明智的，故选A。

60. They stood chatting together as easily and naturally as ____.
A. it could be B. could be C. it was D. was
答案：A. as…as one can表示“尽可能地”。A和B的区别就在于主语不同，B是they could be的省略形式，因为主句中出现的动词是stood，不是be动词，因此该选项中的动词与前面不符；it could be表示的意思是“在可能的情况下”，it指代前面提到的内容。句意：他们站在那儿尽可能地随意聊天。
61. The following are all correct respons to "Who told the news to the teacher?" EXCEPT
A. Jim did this. B. Jim did so. C. Jim did that. D. Jim did.
答案：A. 对Who told the news to the teacher的标准回答是Jim did，即Jim did it的省略句。
此外，还可以用其他代词指代问句中出现的内容，so和that都可以指代前文中提到的内容，而this通常用于指代下文内容。
62. Quality is ____ counts most.
A. which B. that C. what D. where
答案：C. 句中is后为表语从句，该从句中缺少主语，that引导名词性从句时不做成分，where为地点状语，which引导非限制性定语从句withdraw，故这里选what（做双重身份：表语从句引导词和表语从句中的主语）
63. In his plays Shakespeare _____ his characters live through their language.
A. would make B. had made C. made D. makes
答案：D. 本题考查一般现在时的用法。在书报的标题、球赛现场报导、小说著作等的情况介绍常用一般现在时。如：The Bible says love of money is the root of all evil.
64. The square itlf is five hundred yards wide, five times ____ the size of St. Peter's in
Rome.
A. / B. that of C. which is D. of
答案：A. 考查倍数表达法。本题考查的就是倍数表达法中较为常见的一种：倍数+the size/amount/length/width/depth/weight等抽象名词+of…：The earth is 49 times the size of the moon. 其他几种常见的倍数表达法有：倍数+as+adj/adv+as；倍数+adj/adv比较级+than；

A. You must leave immediately.英文关键词
B. You must be feeling rather tired.
C. You must be here by eight o'clock.
D. You must complete the reading assignment on time.
