答案以及解析
一、
1.答案:D
解析:考查连词用法。句意: 有些人直到失去健康才知道它的重要性。not...until直到……才。故选D。
2.答案:D
解析:句意: 我想拥有一辆车, 那么我就能开自己的车去上班了。反身代词myself意为"我自己", 不能作定语, 故排除选项A和B; one可用作定语, 但前面不能再加物主代词, 故排除选项C; own可用作动词, 意为"拥有", 也可用作形容词"自己的", 用在形容词性物主代词my的后面, 表示"我自己的"。故选D。
3.答案:C
解析:考查动词的用法辨析。borrow意为"借入, 借进", 常和介词from连用, 意为"从……借来"; lend意为 "借给, 借出", 常和介词to连用, 意为"把某物借给某人"。 句意: —你为什么不向你的朋友借一些钱呢 —但是我在这里除了你之外不认识任何人。根据句意判断是向别人借来一些钱, 故用"borrow...from..."。故选C。
4.答案:D
解析:考查固定短语的辨析。句意: 虽然Frank 16岁就离开学校, 但他还是成为了一名成功的作家。ever since 意为"从……以后一直"; in fact意为"事实上, 实际上"; after all意为"毕竟"; even though意为"即使, 尽管"。故选D。
5.答案:A
