1.—The town is so beautiful!I just love it.
—Me too.The character of the town is well________. (2013·江苏,23)
A.qualified B.preserved
C.decorated D.simplified

2.Everyone in the village is very friendly.It doesn’t matter ________ you have lived there for a short or a long time. (2012·湖南,26)
A.why B.how C.whether D.when
答案 C
解析 此处it为形式主语,真正的主语是matter后的从句。根据从句中的结构词or就很容易断定:whether...or...。句意为:村里的每个人都很友好。你居住在那里是很短一段时间还是很长一段时间,都没有关系。
3.It doesn’t matter ________ you pay by cash or credit card in this store.(2012·山东,25)
A.how B.whether
C.what D.why
答案 B
解析 句意为:在这家商店里,无论你用现金支付还是用信用卡支付都无关紧要。由It doesn’t matter“没关系”可知后面的意思应该是“无论(不管)……还是……”,又根据题干中的关键词or就很容易确定选B项,构成固定搭配whether...or...。how如何;what什么;why为什么,均不符合题意。
4.Please call my secretary to arrange a meeting this afternoon,or________it is convenient to you. (2011·江西,29)
A.whenever B.however
C.whichever D.wherever
答案 A
解析 句意为:请打电话让我的秘书安排一个会议,在今天下午或是任何你方便的时候。whenever无论何时;however无论如何;whichever无论哪一个;wherever无论何地。此处or连接的是和this afternoon并列的两个时间状语(从句),故只有A项正确。

—________We won the match 4 0. (2011·陕西,18)
A.Guess what B.So what
C.No wonder. D.No doubt.
答案 A
解析 句意为:——杰克,你看起来情绪高涨。——你猜怎么着?我们以4比0赢了比赛。Guess what?你猜怎么着?这是要告诉别人某件事之前常用的口语,说话者并无意要对方真的去猜,听者也不会真的去动脑筋猜,而只是表示说话者的一种语气。So what?那又如何;No wonder.难怪;No doubt.毫无疑问。根据语境,A项最合适。
6.What’s the________,in your opinion,of helping him if he doesn’t make an effort to help himself? (2011·江西,31)
A.sympathy B.theme
C.object D.point

7.One third of the country________covered with trees and the majority of the citizens________black people. (2011·湖南,26)
A.is;are B.is;is
C.are;are D.are;is
答案 A
解析 句意为:这个国家的森林覆盖面积占国土面积的三分之一,并且大多数市民都是黑人。“分数/百分数+名词”作主语时,其谓语动词的单复数取决于名词的形式;“the majority of+名词”作主语时,其谓语动词的单复数也取决于名词的形式。故本题选A项。
8.Lucy has a great sense of humor and always keeps her colleagues ________ with her stories. (2010·上海,33)
A.amused B.amusing
C.to amuse D.to be amused
答案 A
解析 考查keep+sb./sth.+done。根据句意可知,her colleagues与它后面的动词amuse构成被动关系,故选A。
