难题解析：
1. 一个从句作主语，谓语用单数第三人称，加-s。

四、单项选择
1. C。assist sb. in doing sth./help sb.（to）do sth. 帮助某人做某事
2. B。在句子中表示目的用in order to和so as to都可以，avoid与句子的主语是主动关系，因此用不定式的一般式主动形式作目的状语。句意：你应该经常去看望你的老祖母，以免她感觉受忽视。
3. A。考查短语：accuse sb. of sth （指责某人做某事）和defend against（保卫......免受伤
害）。
4. B。cover 表示“涉及，覆盖，报道”。
5. C。concentrate… on 表示“使……集中于”。句意：作为高中生，你应该把精力放在如何掌握学习技能上。
6. D。approved表示“批准，通过”。admit 意思是“容许（进入）”，不合题意。
7. C。in case 表示“以防，万一”； even if 即使；if only 如果......就好了；so that 以便于，以致于。句意：他把照相机准备好，以防他看到可以拍成一张好照片的题材（而来不及准备）。
8. B。defend sb. from 表示“保护某人免受......”，相当于protect sb. from。
9. A。be eager to do 表示“急切地要做某事”。 desperate 不顾一切的；urgent 急迫的；
earnest 郑重其事的，非常认真的。
10. A。guilty 是形容词，在这里作found的主语补足语，即find sb. guilty 发现某人有罪；（be）guilty of murder 表示“犯有谋杀罪”。crime 名词，意思是“罪行”；accuse 动词，意思是“指控”；charge 是及物动词，意思是“指控，收费”，与主语之间是被动关系，动词的-ing形式不合题意。句意：今天在中心法庭上，一个23岁的女子被发现犯有谋杀罪。
11. B。与后句中的“by accident”对应，选deliberately (故意地)。unusually 不寻常地；sceptically 怀疑地；appropriately 适当的。句意：我认为她是有意伤害我的感情，而不是像她声称的那样是偶然的。
12. B。acquired 是形容词，意思是“习得的，养成的，后天的”，acquired taste 意为“后天的/学来的爱好”。inquire 询问。
13. C。edition 意为“版次，版本”；符合题意。section 部分；part 部分，局部；editorial 社论，编辑的。
14. B。根据句意“滚烫的盘子容易损伤餐桌的......”可知，应选polish (光泽)，此时polish是不可数名词，表示属性，不用冠词；而cover（覆盖物）是可数名词，用于此处要加the。
15. B。deadline 最后期限。句意：为了在经理设定的最后期限前完成，我们日日夜夜地忙着这个工程。
16. A。be delighted at 因为某事而高兴；delightful 表示人或事物的性质，意为“令人愉悦的”；horrified （感到）恐怖的；horrible 可怕的。
17. D。 注意介词搭配。concentrate one’s attention on 把注意力集中于；pay attention to 注意。
18. B。注意介词搭配：be content with 对......感到满足；be proud of 对......感到骄傲；be eager for 渴望；be anxious about 对......感到担忧。
19. C。 assist sb. in doing sth. 帮助某人做某事；provide 提供，常用provide sb. with sth；supply 供应，常用supply sb. with sth；support 维持，养活。
20. B。protect 保护；inquire 打听，询问；acquire 获得。句意：宣传单告知顾客夏末大减价的事。
21. B。考查accuse sb. of sth. 表示“控告某人某事”； blame sb. on sth. 表示“责备某人某事”；charge sb. for sth. “控告某人某事”；scold sb. for sth. “因为某事而批评某人”。注意不同的介词搭配。
22. B。she后要接宾语从句的谓语，排除C；她要被带到医院，排除A、D。be taken前省略了should。句意：那位母亲要求立刻带她去医院去看她的儿子。
23. D。approve of 赞成......；agree to/on 同意某事；admit of 容许有...；prove 证明。
24. C。句意是所有的礼物必须立刻寄出去，为的是圣诞节前按时收到。因为“礼物”是“被收到”的，要用to do sth.的被动式。
25. B。句意：为了提前完成任务， 我们正全力以赴。ahead of time 提前，指在预定时间之前；in advance 预先，表示“事成之前”； go ahead 前进，用于口语时表示“去做你想做的事吧”；get ahead意为“进步, 获得成功”，是谓语形式，因为句子已有谓语“are now all going out”，排除。

四、单项选择
1. C。assist sb. in doing sth./help sb.（to）do sth. 帮助某人做某事
2. B。在句子中表示目的用in order to和so as to都可以，avoid与句子的主语是主动关系，因此用不定式的一般式主动形式作目的状语。句意：你应该经常去看望你的老祖母，以免她感觉受忽视。
3. A。考查短语：accuse sb. of sth （指责某人做某事）和defend against（保卫......免受伤
害）。
4. B。cover 表示“涉及，覆盖，报道”。

9. A。be eager to do 表示“急切地要做某事”。 desperate 不顾一切的；urgent 急迫的；
earnest 郑重其事的，非常认真的。
10. A。guilty 是形容词，在这里作found的主语补足语，即find sb. guilty 发现某人有罪；（be）guilty of murder 表示“犯有谋杀罪”。crime 名词，意思是“罪行”；accuse 动词，意思是“指控”；charge 是及物动词，意思是“指控，收费”，与主语之间是被动关系，动词的-ing形式不合题意。句意：今天在中心法庭上，一个23岁的女子被发现犯有谋杀罪。
11. B。与后句中的“by accident”对应，选deliberately (故意地)。unusually 不寻常地；sceptically 怀疑地；appropriately 适当的。句意：我认为她是有意伤害我的感情，而不是像她声称的那样是偶然的。
12. B。acquired 是形容词，意思是“习得的，养成的，后天的”，acquired taste 意为“后天的/学来的爱好”。inquire 询问。
13. C。edition 意为“版次，版本”；符合题意。section 部分；part 部分，局部；editorial 社论，编辑的。
14. B。根据句意“滚烫的盘子容易损伤餐桌的......”可知，应选polish (光泽)，此时polish是不可数名词，表示属性，不用冠词；而cover（覆盖物）是可数名词，用于此处要加the。
15. B。deadline 最后期限。句意：为了在经理设定的最后期限前完成，我们日日夜夜地忙着这个工程。
16. A。be delighted at 因为某事而高兴；delightful 表示人或事物的性质，意为“令人愉悦的”；horrified （感到）恐怖的；horrible 可怕的。
17. D。 注意介词搭配。concentrate one’s attention on 把注意力集中于；pay attention to 注意。
18. B。注意介词搭配：be content with 对......感到满足；be proud of 对......感到骄傲；be eager for 渴望；be anxious about 对......感到担忧。
19. C。 assist sb. in doing sth. 帮助某人做某事；provide 提供，常用provide sb. with sth；supply 供应，常用supply sb. with sth；support 维持，养活。
20. B。protect 保护；inquire 打听，询问；acquire 获得。句意：宣传单告知顾客夏末大减价的事。
21. B。考查accuse sb. of sth. 表示“控告某人某事”； blame sb. on sth. 表示“责备某人某事”；charge sb. for sth. “控告某人某事”；scold sb. for sth. “因为某事而批评某人”。注意不同的介词搭配。
22. B。she后要接宾语从句的谓语，排除C；她要被带到医院，排除A、D。be taken前省略了should。句意：那位母亲要求立刻带她去医院去看她的儿子。
23. D。approve of 赞成......；agree to/on 同意某事；admit of 容许有...；prove 证明。
24. C。句意是所有的礼物必须立刻寄出去，为的是圣诞节前按时收到。因为“礼物”是“被收到”的，要用to do sth.的被动式。
25. B。句意：为了提前完成任务， 我们正全力以赴。ahead of time 提前，指在预定时间之前；in advance 预先，表示“事成之前”； go ahead 前进，用于口语时表示“去做你想做的事吧”；get ahead意为“进步, 获得成功”，是谓语形式，因为句子已有谓语“are now all going out”，排除。
