23、（分数：2.00）A.little B.fewC.a littleD.a few解析：解析：本题空格处是说在功课上不努力。pains 复数形式表示“辛苦，努力”，是不可数名词，take pains 尽力，耐心：take little pains 不努力。因此正确答案为 A。11.This exquisite violin was with superb workmanship.(2004 年秋季电子科技大学考博试题)（分数：2.00）A.rather strangeB.pretty cheapC.utterly worthlessD.very lovely 解析：解析：本题中，exquisit

28、坚持，主张；mandate 强制执行，委托办理：speculate 思索，猜。句意是在他所写的有关生物技术的书中，里夫金认为“目前手边最重要的事是使新的科学和技术成为公众广为关注的问题。”所以正确答案是 B。16.A_refers to an animal that is born from its mothers body, not from an egg, and drinks its mothers milk as a baby.(2006 年清华大学考博试题)（分数：2.00）A.mammothB.penguinC.mosquitoD.mammal 解析：解析：mammoth 意为“大
