B) 根据上下文可判断此句句义：空姐迅速但是小声地告诉大家飞机驾 驶员昏了过去。四 个选项中announce, report是不及物动词，不符;inform是及物动词，意为“通知”，一般 可用在短语inform sb.

17、of sth.或inform sb. that.中，例如：Have you informed the m of your intended departure?你已经通知他们你要离开吗?We were informed that two prisoners had escaped from the prison.我们获知两名犯人从监狱中逃了出来。 4.

19、) 根据句义和语法线索可知选项B had to为正确答案。 12. D) 根据语义线索可以判断飞机在着陆的时候由于驾驶员不专业，引起 了 激烈的摇晃，故选项D为正确答案。Falteringly意为“支吾地，口吃地”，与题意不符。 13. D) 根据文章可知飞机在经过很长的滑行后才停下，故选项D为正确答 案。另外其他三项的词义在此处不符。 14. D) 根据上下文可推测当飞机着陆的时候，许多乘客的家人或有关人员 非常焦急地在飞 机外边等候，故outside为正确答案。Outdoors意为“室外”，用在此处意义明显不符。15. D) 根据词汇线索可知选项D为正确答案，意为congratulate

20、.on. 是固定搭配，例如：Tom congratulates me on my success in passing the test.汤姆祝 贺我通过了这次考试。3.

28、 2. C) 通过分析本句结构可知此空所在句是一个从句，作主句的原因状语 ，结合选项可知 此空需要动词的过去分词表示“确信、相信”的意思，故选项C为正确答案，因为“be conv inced that”意为“确信、相信”。 3. B) 主句中动词为insist时，一般宾语从句应该使用虚拟语气，并且一 般情况下省略should。 4. B) 此空前it的使用法在语法上叫“虚义”it，因此它无法和talk abo ut, mention搭 配使用。come to有几种意义分别为“归因是”，“结果是”;“谈到”，“想到”;“总 共”，“共达”等。Turn to意为“转向，指向”等。根据上下文可推断句

29、义为“当谈到计 算机的问题时，”，由此可见此空应选B come to。 5. A) 根据句义“许多学校在没有制定良好的教学计划前，就屈从了家长 们的压力购买了电脑。”可判断此空应使用介词without。 6. A) 根据上下文可知学校迫于家长的压力不得不购买了电脑，这使得老 师们处 于两难境地，即家长的压力和明智正确的教育方针，故此空选A。clever一般用来指人。 7.

B) 根据上下文可推断句义为：不是每个学校都能买得起电脑。故此空 选B。 13. D) 此空涉及yet的用法。首先可用排除法排除already, of course, i n addition， 因为他们要么意义不符，要么用法不符。Y

31、et既可作副词也可作连词。作副词时意为“还、 仍然、尚”，常用于否定句中，如 Much remain yet to be done. / He has not yet hear d the good news.有时意为“已经”，常用于疑问句中。作连词时意为“而，然而，可是” 。此空yet符合第一种用法。14. A) “agitate for”意为“鼓动，赞成”。 15. D) where用于此空引导非限定性的定语从句。4.
