三、单项填空
1. B。句意:我们应该早点去电影院,否则就没有票剩下了。根据句意选B。However 然而Otherwise 否则,不然;Besides 而且,此外;Instead 代替,反而。
2. C。come up是不及物动词短语,意思是“被提出”,符合题意。come across 偶然遇到;come on 用来安慰、鼓励、催促等场合。句意:会上提出了许多问题,这使情况更糟。
3.C。unless在此引导条件状语从句,意为“如果不”,从句通常用一般现在时;make sure后面的宾语从句通常用一般现在时,故选C。
4.A。题干中,“许多人选择坐公交车而不是开私家车”和“油价持续上升”之间是因果关系,故选A。as a result 结果;by the way 顺便说一声;in other words 换句话说;at the same time 与此同时。

7.A。句意:当天破晓时,我们发现自己躺在沙滩上。find sb. doing 发现某人正在做……,lie和宾语ourselves是主动关系,而且正在进行,所以用动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。

9.D。句意:因为生活在沿海的村庄,他们完全摆脱了所有污染。be free from “免于,摆脱,不受……影响”。
10.A。join sb. in sth./ doing sth. 和某人一起做某事,符合此题题意。attend后多接会议、上课、讲演、仪式等;take part in 多指参加较大的活动,并在其中起一定作用;join in 多指较小型的活动,如球赛等。而join后面直接加人。
