单项选择
1.【答案】B【解析】考查介词在定语从句中的前置。temperature是which的先行词。根据习惯用法“at the temperature”选B项。句意:100 ℃是水沸腾的温度。
2.【答案】D【解析】考查介词。Across介词含有“from one side to another”的意思。另外back across指背宽。此题容易误选C,但是应该注意too...to句型中,to后接动词原形。句意:你觉得这条裙子是不是肩的位置太紧了?
3. 【答案】B【解析】考查介词。句意:没有激情,人们就不会拥有创造性思维所必须的动力和快乐。
4.【答案】D【解析】考查介词。句意:你可以换工作,可以搬家,但友谊是一辈子不变的。只有“for” 表示动作的持续。 “for life ”所以选 D项。
5.【答案】D【解析】考查介词。句意:父母很容易就对他们的孩子期望过高。本句很容易受思维定式的影响而误选B项,so as to表目的,与句意不符。本句可简化为It is easier for parents to raise their expectations of their children too high.
6.【解析】考查介词短语。in time意为“及时”,in case意为“万一,假使”;in need意为“需要”;in vain意为“徒劳,无济于事”。句意:—谢天谢地,你安全了!—我走回去,正好及时避开堵车。
7.【答案】D【解析】考查介词短语和过渡句。根据句意“他似乎给人们留下在巴黎玩得不开心的印象____(恰恰相反)他玩得很开心”可知前后有转折之意,故选D恰恰相反。A首先;B此外;C结果是。
8.【答案】C【解析】考查介词。off 意思是“离开……、隔着……”,表示与……隔着一定的距离。句意:Well宾馆坐落在一个安静的地方,远离主干道,在湖的尽头。
9.【答案】A【解析】考查介词。这句话的意思:协议的达成似乎是不可能的,因为大多数委员会成员都______它。显然这里填“反对”。故选A. against.
10.【答案】B【解析】考查介词。two dogs 所属于all animals ,故用介词of表示这种关系,句意:在我所养的动物中,这两条狗对人说的话最为敏感。
