39、其拼写。与“私立学校”对应的美国英语是 private school，与其对应的英国英语是 public school。19.All the planets in solar system EXCEPT _ got their names from Greco-Roman mythology.（分数：1.00）A.Earth B.MarsC.JupiterD.Pluto解析：考点 本题主要考查对科技术语的了解。 天文学中太阳系中行星的英文分别是 Mercury(水星)，Venus(金星)，Earth(地球)，Mars(火星)，Jupiter(木星)，Saturn(土星)，Uranus(天王星)

43、s.，Miss，Ms 等。英语中还有一些不大常用的头衔，例如：president，prime minister，governor，mayor，doctor，judge，lawyer，professor 等。在英语中，uncle 和 aunt常与被称呼者的名字一起使用，如 Uncle Tom，但像 Teacher Jones在英语中是不恰当的称呼。23.Janet Merrill Hobart is your colleague who is married. You can call her _.（分数：1.00）A.Janet B.Miss HobartC.HobartD.Mrs. Hoba

44、rt 解析：考点 本题主要考查英语文化中有关姓名的称呼语。 在英语中，头衔用在姓的前面。在正式场合要用头衔加上姓。在非正式场合，讲英语的人喜欢直呼其名。Mrs.指已婚妇女；Miss 指未婚妇女。因此，A、D 两项符合题意。24.“To go to the lavatory“ may be _.（分数：1.00）A.to wash one“s hands B.to powder one“s nose C.to fresh up D.to relieve oneself 解析：考点 本题主要考查对英语委婉语的了解。 英语中有许多表示“厕所(lavatory)”的委婉语，如：washroom，bat
