　　D．/; the

　　答案：B　考查冠詞。第一空考查“the＋adj.”表示一類人；第二空本來出現可數名詞的復數直接表示類別種類來泛指，但由于后面有of結構來作后置定語，所以在fruits前要加上the，表示社會發展的特定的成果。

　　7．________ smooth and soft, this kind of cloth made of silk ________ well.

　　A．Felt; sells

　　B．Feeling; is sold

　　C．Felt; is sold

　　D．Feeling; sells

　　答案：D　考查非謂語動詞和主動表被動。第一空考查非謂語動詞作狀語，cloth與feel構成邏輯上的主謂關系，所以選feeling形式；第二空考查主動表被動，某些可以和well，easily，smoothly等副詞連用的不及物動詞如read，write，wash，clean，draw，burn，cook，sell，lock，open，shut，且主語是非生命的名詞或代詞，用主動結構表被動意思，再如：The pen writes smoothly.這支鋼筆很好用。

　　A．to reach; to be entered

　　B．to be reached; to enter

　　C．to reach; to enter

　　D．to be reached; to be entered

　　答案：C　考查不定式作定語。句型：主語＋be＋形容詞＋to do，此結構中，不定式和主語有邏輯上的動賓關系，不定式用主動而不用被動形式。

　　12．The new comers found it impossible to ________ themselves to the climate to make permanent homes in the new country.

　　A．suit

　　B．adapt

　　C．regulate

　　D．relate

　　答案：B　考查詞義辨析。句意：這些新來者發現，在這個國家要適應這兒的氣候并永久定居下來是不可能的。adapt (oneself) to sth.“適應某物”，符合句意。suit“適合某人”；regulate“(用法律)管制；控制(機器、設備)；調節”；relate... to... “把……同……聯系在一起”。

　　13．Your plan is much better than your classmate's ________.

　　A．in the way

　　B．by the way

　　C．in many ways

　　D．in this way

　　答案：C　句意：你的計劃在很多方面要比你同學的好很多。in many ways“在很多方面”；in the way“擋道，礙事”；by the way“順便說”；in this way“按照這種方法”。結合語境，C項為正確答案。

　　14．While Mr. Yang was examining the composition his son had finished________the possible spelling mistakes in it; the mistakes he got used to________him a lot.

　　A．to correct; annoying

　　B．correcting; annoyed

　　C．to correct; annoyed

　　D．correcting; annoying

　　答案：C　這是一道典型的陷阱題。第一空中his son had finished是the composition的定語，可以不予考慮，意為“他兒子寫完的作文”，第一空就該用不定式表示目的，“檢查是為了改正可能出現的拼寫錯誤”，在第二空中出題老師又設置了一個陷阱，he got used to其實又是后置定語，中間省略了that，所以整個句子缺少謂語動詞，只能選擇過去式annoyed。

　　15．He is never absent________school________.

　　A．from; despite of his serious illness

　　B．of; though seriously ill

　　C．from; despite his serious illness

　　D．of; except when he is ill

　　答案：C　be absent from“缺席，不在”。句意：即使生了重病，他也從沒有缺過課。despite是介詞，后面不能再用其他介詞，相當于in spite of。
