Ⅳ.单项填空
1. 解析:选A。It couldn? ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t be better意为“再好不过了”,是对别人邀请的回答;Of course you can表达生硬,不符合交际用语习惯;If you like是对别人请求的回答;It?s up to you意为“随便”。根据句意,选A。

3. 解析:选D。mixed views ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )意为“各种各样的观点”,从后面的because not everybody is in favour of it in the survey我们可以得出答案。
4. 解析:选D。means是单复数形式相同 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的名词,从空前的every可知,means在这里表示单数,同时它与try之间呈被动关系,因此用被动语态。
5. 解析:选C。考查短语辨析。te ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )am up with与……合作;catch up with赶上;put up with忍受; keep up with跟得上。根据句意可知,选C。
6. 解析:选B。what引导的是名词性从句,而这里需要的是boy后的定语从句,因此用whom。
7. 解析:选A。in that为固定短语,相当于because,意为“因为”。而其他选项引导的是定语从句且句意也不符合。
8. 解析:选C。will在这里是情态动词,意为“肯;能”,表达事物的特征。
9. 解析:选D。从空后的Here you are可知,说话人同意给别人看她的照片。by all means意为“行;可以”。
10. 解析:选A。there is no possibility that ...为固定句型,意为“没有可能……”。

I had a brand new $20 bill. I was so 44 because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on 45 seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line. 46 I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I 47 I had not actually handed any money to the cashier.
