  参考答案及解析:

  1. 选A。hair 可用作可数或不可数名词,用作可数名词时,指一根一根的毛发或头发,如说 There’s a hair in my soup (我的汤里有根头发);用作不可数名词时,则是整体地指一个人的头发。

  2. 选B。需根据句意来分析。have no sense of direction 意为“没有方向感”。

  3. 选B。需根据句意来分析。attempt 在此表示“尝试”。

  4. 选B,由于上文说 didn’t have to work,所以下文相应的语境应是 did it by choice。类似地,下面一题应选D,也是因为choice与下文的have to do it 相呼应:

  Were you given a _____, or did you have to do it?

  A. job B. duty

  C. request D. choice

  5. 选 B。注意其后的 to the party 和 replied to it。

  6. 选C。value 指“价值”。

  7. 选C。make sense of 意为“明白”、“理解”。比较:make sense 意为“有意义”、“意思清楚”、“有道理”。如下面一题选D:

  What he told us about the situation simply doesn’t make any ______.

  A. use B. reason

  C. value D. sense

  8. 选B。miss one’s turn 电为“错过机会”,注意下文的 …have to wait for the next round 所表示的语境。

  9. 选D。it’s no wonder (+that从句)的意思是“难怪”,也可说成 No wonder (+that从句)。

  10. 选D。directions 的意思是“使用说明”,空格前的 refer to 意为“查看”、“参考”。

  11. 选D。room 为无生命名词,不用 room’s 这样的所有格形式,在此可直接用名词作定语。类似地,下面一题要选B,也是一样的道理(名词作定语通常用单数不用复数):

  The boy was very happy that his mother bought him a new pair of shoes at a ______ yesterday.

  A. shoes shop B. shoe shop C. shoes’s shop D. shoe’s

  12. 选C。在通常情况下,专有名词具有“独一无二”性,因此它通常没有复数形式,即不可数。但是,专有名词的独一无二性有时是相对的,随着范围的扩大,这种独一无二性便会受到破坏。如在一个星期(week)内,只有一个星期六(Saturday), 一个星期日(Sunday)等,但是在一个月中甚至一年中,便有多个星期六,多个星期日了。所以我们有时可以说:We have spent many happy Sundays there. 我们在那儿度过了许多个愉快的星期日。另外一点值得注意的是,与一般的名词单数变复数不同,以“辅音字母+y”结尾的专有名词,其直接加词尾-s,而不将y改为i。

  13. 选D。从常识来考虑,electricity 属于 energy,结合全句的语境,只有D最合适。同样地,下面一题从常识和语境来考虑也应选D:

  14. 选A。ins and outs 意为“细节”,dos and don’ts 意为“注意事项”,heads or tails 为掷钱币打赌时用语,意为“你赌正面还是赌反面”,p’s and q’s主要用于 mind one’s p’s and q’s,意为“留意自己的言行”。结合句意,选A最合适(from www.yygrammar.com)。

  15. 选C。从语法上看,news 不可选,因为它不可数;从意义上看,D不可选,因为选D意思不通;比较A和C,选C最合适,因为 start与下文的 a second 相吻合。
