40、nted on _ side of the street.（分数：2.00）A.bothB.eitherC.allD.neither解析：解析 该题是语法题，考查限定词的意义和用法。 很多学生会误选选项A，但是如果用选项A，该句子里的side应该是复数形式。either可以和end、side等两用，表示“两端/边都”。选项C中的all意思是“全都”，用于三者以上的情况。选项D中的neither表示“两者都不”，但因为主语The trees是特指，因此此处用neither不妥。因此，选项B为最佳答案。12._ is human nature that a great many people ar

44、福，更满意”，可以单独使用，也可以接其他形式，如：She is better off without him. 没有他，她生活得更幸福。又如：The weather was so bad wed have been better off staying at home. 天气不好，我们还不如待在家里舒服。因此，选项B为最佳答案。14.If talks for the new trade agreements take _, food industries in both countries will be seriously affected.（分数：2.00）A.much too longB

45、.too much longerC.too much longD.much long解析：解析 该题是语法题，考查程度副词的排序。 “耗时久”用take long，能修饰副词long的程度副词是too，能修饰too的程度副词是much，如：He has walked much too far today. 他今天走了太远的路。其他选项中的副词排列顺序是错误的。因此，选项A为最佳答案。15.What bad deeds would he not do!
