Answer 1

1.These are ____ from other presses . They are having a meeting in one of the ___ office .
A. editor-in-chiefs , editor's-in-chief B. editors-in-chief , editors-in-chief's
C. editors-in-chief's , editor's-in-chief's D. editor-in-chief's , editors-in-chief
答：选B。合成名词的复数其s就加在主要的名词上。又如passers-by
第二空是将one of the editors-in-chief 作为一个名词，意为编辑之一，加上's后表示名词的所有格。
评：这样的名词所有格很少见，见过someone else's 别的什么人的， 这还是第一次见到。总觉得抄错了似的。经搜索，没错。但我还是认为第二句不好。因为one of后一般都是跟可数名词的复数形式的。感觉改为... in the office of one of the editors-in-chief为好。
2. 从cousin的英语解释：the child of one'suncle or aunt可知，答案就为C。
不仅答案给错了，题干中的问句也蛮幼稚的可笑的! 谁是老表？我看答案就是“朱元璋”！
3. A. by hand 手工制作 就象交通方式：by bus, by car，并不是具体的车，不是具体的手，前面不用冠词。

Answer 2

1. B. editor-in-chief 主编，复数是 editors-in-chief, 要把核心名词变为复数，另外如 passers-by
2. cousin n. 堂兄弟姐妹；表兄弟姐妹
cousin ['kʌzən] n. the child of your aunt or uncle
原题中文意思：cousin 是谁？cousin 是什么人？堂/表兄弟姐妹是谁？
A 项意思：叔叔、舅舅、阿姨、婶婶、姑妈等人的儿子
C 项意思：叔叔、舅舅、阿姨、婶婶、姑妈等人的小孩（儿子女儿均可）
你应当看出来了，第2题应当选 C.
3. A. by hand 手工制作
