Ⅱ.21. D 句意:雨伞是什么时候发明的？此处主语表示一类事物，用定冠词the;“发明”原来不存在的东西用invent，故选D。
22. D 句意:两年前我就有这个MP3了。时间状语since two years ago表示的是一个时间段，故该句应该使用现在完成时。have为延续性动词，buy为非延续性动词，故选D。
23. D 句意:你结婚多久了？由助动词have可知该句为现在完成时，又因为got married为非延续性动词短语，不可与how long连用，故选D项。
24. C hear of听说，由助动词have可知用hear的过去分词形式，构成现在完成时。故选C。
25. A 句意:请不要放弃尝试，你最终一定会成功的。give up doing sth. 表示“放弃做某事”。
26. B 由句中的often和on Sundays可判断本句是一般现在时，故排除C、D两项；句子的主语是Lucy, 是第三人称单数, 所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。
27. C 句意:“他们最终解决所有问题了吗？”“是的，他们解决了。” in the end最后，终于。
28. A 句意:几天前这只狗死了，我对它的死感到很难过。died为die的过去式，death为名词。
29. B devote...to...中to是介词，接动词时应用v.-ing形式；care for照顾，关心。
30. A 先行词为物，且关系词在定语从句中作主语，故用which引导定语从句。
31. C 主句的时态用一般现在时，才能和that从句的时态保持一致。It is said...意为“据说……”，符合句意。
32. C 本题考查seem to be/do...“好像……；似乎……”的用法。look后不能跟不定式，因此排除B、D两项；又因为it为单数，故选C。句意:“你想要试一试吗？”“是的，很想试一试。它好像很令人兴奋。”
33. C 先行词是人，并且关系代词在定语从句中作主语，故用who引导定语从句。
34. B 含情态动词的被动语态的结构为“情态动词+be+动词的过去分词”，故本题选B。
35. C enough修饰形容词或副词时，要位于形容词或副词之后，可排除A、B；又因为作表语应用形容词，故选C。
Ⅲ. 36. B 主句中he said为过去时，宾语从句中也用过去时态，所以gave正确。
37. A “one of+形容词最高级+复数名词”为固定用法，表示“……之一”。故此题用the most famous。
38. C 根据下文意思，他想要一个女孩成为他的妻子。
39. D because引导原因状语从句。
40. D quickly很快地。
41. C look at看；look over检查；look for寻找；look after照顾。由题意可知选C。
42. A as为“作为”之意。
43. C to read“去读”，与the books意思相符，女孩子们努力去找那些书读。
44. B 书在很短时间内被售光了，应用一般过去时的被动语态。
45. A himself他自己，反身代词作Somerset Maugham的同位语。此句意思为:“那就是Somerset Maugham本人！他是多聪明的人啊！”
Ⅳ.46. C 由第一段第一句“The famous scientist and thinker，Charles Darwin，was born on February 12, 1809 in England.”可知Darwin 出生在英国，故选C。
47. A 由第一段第三句可知他是个孩子时喜欢读科学方面的书。故选A。
