29、 someone else.（分数：2.00）A.share B.to shareC.sharingD.to have shared解析：根据 Id rather have 应选择 share 构成平行结构。因此 A 项为正确答案。2.Peter, who had been driving all day, suggested_ at the next town.（分数：2.00）A.to stopB.stopping C.stopD.having stopped解析：根据“suggest +doing”这一用法，可先排除 A、C 两项，D 项为完成式，说明该动作发生在谓语动作之前，根据句意显
30、然不对。因此 B 项为正确答案。3._she realized it was too late to go home.（分数：2.00）A.No sooner it grew dark thanB.Hardly did it grow dark thatC.Scarcely had it grown dark thanD.It was not until dark that 解析：A 项不正确，No sooner than 为固定搭配，但句子须倒装。B、C 两项不正确，Hardly 和 Scarcely 须和 when 搭配。因此 D 项为正确答案。4.I hope all the preca

32、 pace with解析：C 项“put up with 忍受，容忍”符合题意，如：I cant put up with your hypocrisy any more(我再也不能容忍你的虚伪态度了)。A 项 go in for 意为“从事于，酷爱，参加”，B 项 hold on to 意为“抓住不放，坚持”，D 项 keep pace with 意为“跟上，和齐步前进”，都与题意不符。因此 C 项为正确答案。6.As Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, I have directed that all measures_ for our defen

34、式表示发生在过去的事情。因此 C 项为正确答案。8.Operations which left patients_ and in need of long periods of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable.（分数：2.00）A.exhausted B.abandonedC.injuredD.deserted解析：本题空格处是说使病人极度疲劳并需要长时间的恢复期。A 项 exhausted 意为“极度疲劳，耗尽的”符合题意。其他三项中，B 项 abandoned 意为“被废弃的，被抛弃的”，C 项 in
35、jured 意为“受伤的”，D 项 deserted 意为“被抛弃的，无人光顾的”，都与题意不符。因此 A 项为正确答案。9._his sister, Jack is quiet and does not easily make friends with others.（分数：2.00）A.DislikeB.Unlike C.AlikeD.Liking解析：本题空格处是说杰克不像他的姐姐。B 项 Unlike (介词)意为“不像，和不同”符合题意。其他三项中，A 项 Dislike 意为“不喜欢；厌恶”，C 项 Alike 意为“相似的，相像的”，D 项 Liking 意为“爱好”，都与题意不

40、都是想在同类中提高地位或者愿意使网站被人们经常浏览的公司)”。可知，资助搜索引擎的公司的目的就是让自己的网站被上网者多多浏览，D 项正符合这个含义。13.What is worth noting from the example of Athens County is that_.（分数：2.00）A.greater efforts should be made to improve peoples living standards B.70 percent of the people there have been employed for two yearsC.40 percent of
41、the population no longer relies on welfareD.the living standards of most people are going down解析：最主要的依据应该是第三小段内容。14._ is the most popular activity online.（分数：2.00）A.Sending pages of informationB.Sending E-mail C.Surfing the netD.Selling the top spot解析：什么是网上最受欢迎的活动呢?从文章第二段最后一句“search requests rank as
