Answer 1

大部分并不是语法问题.........
1. Nearly two thousand years 【have passed】 ______ theChinese first invented the compass.
A. when B. before C. since D. after
句子时态为现在完成，时间状语用since+过去的某个时间，整句意思为：自从罗盘发明（到现在）已经有两千多年了。A是“...当” 你自己看看通吗？？

3. ______ leisure was generally considered a waste of time
A. Not until recently
B. Not recently
C. Until recently
D.Recently until
我选的是b ，答案是c
直到近期（当今社会），休闲被认为是浪费时间。这个看意思就行，不用解释语法
4. ______that this region was so rich in natural resources.

A. Little he knew
B. Little he did know
C. Little did he know
D. Little he had known
我选的是b ，答案是c
这是程度副词提前引起的部分倒装
5. After a meal in a restaurant, one asks the waiter for the ______.
A. pay B. bill C. charge D. note
我选的是c ，答案是b
这是纯词汇题，不是语法题。吃晚饭付账，要的是“账单”，charge名词意是“费用”，你吃完了饭，还问人家要钱？？太霸气了不是？
6. If you are walking away from a clock tower, you will hear the ticking of the clock fade to a point ______ it cannot be heard.
A. which B. what C. where D. how
我选的是a ，答案是c
定语从句内部的主语it指代的是the ticking of the clock ，显然从句内部缺少介词at the point的地点状语
8. For the whole period of two months, there ______ no rain in this area. Now the crops are dead.
A. is
B. was
C. has been
D. have been
我选的是d ，答案是c
这个我晕死了，时态都判断对了，主语是全否的no rain，当然是单数概念啊，就算rain本身也是不可数的单数概念啊
11. The ______ and more educated people in the East have, to a great extent, taken up the table manners and customs of the West.
A. rich B. richer C. poor D. poorer
我选的是a ，答案是b
更富有，更有教养，这是两个并列的，地位平等的定语啊，and连接，要一致，要平等！！
12. ______ suggestions you make, he will turn a deaf ear tothem.
A. What
B. Which
C.Whatever
D.However
我选的是d ，答案是c
C是无论什么，D是无论如何
无论你提【什么】建议，他都充耳不闻。能换成“如何”？
这也不是语法题.............
13. Mr. Johnson, together with his wife and two daughters,____to arrive on the evening flight.
A. are going B. are C. will D. is
我选的是a ，答案是d
真正的主语只有Mr.Johnson 一个人啊
14. The meeting is for the ______ purpose of discussing how to prevent crime.
A.detailed
B.specific
C.limited
D.sophisticated
我选的是a ，答案是b
还是词汇意思题，与语法无关，这次会议的（）目的是讨论如何防止犯罪。自己拿汉语试试...
“详细”的目的？？语文老师都不会同意吧？
17. By trading, both countries get good products from abroad for ______they would cost if made at home.
A. less than
B. more than
C. little than
D. fewer than
我选的是b ，答案是a
这也不是语法，句意没搞懂，贸易双方都获得了比自产要“（更）便宜”的货物。肯定是买比做便宜，才会去买啊....
18. He was ______ by the army because of his poor eye-sight.
A.rejected
B.stopped
C.declined
D.prevented
我选的是d ，答案是a
词汇辨析题，由于视力问题，他被军队“拒绝”
24. These shops normally ______ in old antique (古董)items, not in modern ones.
A. major B. pull C. specialize D. get
我选的是b ，答案是c
这些商店“主营”古董... pull in 是啥？“吸引”？？？
25. Physics is the equivalent of ______ used to be called natural philosophy.
A. that B. all C. which D. what
我选的是c ，答案是d
这是介词of的宾语从句，不是定语从句
26. The government uses opinion polls to learn what people think about many social ______.
A. issues
B.subjects
C.questions
D.objects
我选的是b ，答案是a
政府通过民意调查来了解民众对很多社会（）的看法。
“要点、问题”还是“话题、科目”更好？
不过这个还算错得不怎么离谱......
27. Her father ______ nothing in her education that might
make her the most accomplished (有造诣的)
woman of the age.
A.omitted
B thought
C.paid
D.thanked
我选的是b ，答案是a
句意，语法两方面都有问题，在教育方面，她的父亲没有（）任何能让她出类拔萃的东西。
A是忽略，B是考虑
你要选，他爹什么都不想？是亲爹吗？再说了，think不能直接跟代词宾语啊
28. Many difficulties have ______ as a result of the exchange over to a new type of fuel.
A. existed B. raised C. arisen D.aroused
词汇辨析题，C 出现，D 引起
困难“出现”，还是困难“引起”？

Answer 2

1.since引导从句的时候，通常主句用现在完成时，从句用一般过去时，这道题在时态上符合这个规律，而且句意是：自从中国人发明了指南针之后已经过了将近两千年了
3.首先not是否定词，否定词放在句首，句子要进行倒装，所以不能选AB,其次B在句子里翻译不通。
这里的until recently就是个表示时间的状语，放在这句话的末尾可能更好理解：leisure was generally considered a waste of time until recently.
4.little 算否定词，放句首要半倒装，就是把助动词或be动词提前
5.charge是零钱，bill是账单。吃完饭后应该买单
6。定语从句中经常考point做先行词，where做关系副词引导定语从句的。
这句话中从句部分it can not be heard 不缺成分，所以不能选关系代词，要选关系副词
8.there be 句型谓语动词的单复数由后面的名词决定，这句话里rain是单数的，所以用has
11,。and 连接的是两个并列的部分，后面用的是more，前面蒙也得蒙richer。
中间的to a great extent “从很大程度上来说”是插入语，不是句子主要成分可以盖住不看。
12.不管你提什么建议，他都会充耳不闻的。 这里的“什么”不是好的坏的这样的，而是指建议的内容，所以用whatever,不用however
13.together后面是插入语，在两个逗号之间，不算句子主要成分，所以，主语就是Mr.Johnson
另外be to do 也表将来
14.specific 特定的，明确的 是说这个会议有着明确的目的，是要讨论怎样预防犯罪的。
detailed 是详细的
17.通过贸易往来，双方都能买到国外的好的产品，比在国内制作花的钱要少。
18.由于视力不好，他被军队拒绝了。 reject拒绝 prevent 预防
24.specialize 专门从事 pull 拉
25.of是介词，后面应该接宾语，所以这是个宾语从句，which不能引导宾语从句，what可以。
26.issue 问题，报刊的期号，发行物 subject 主题，课题 政府想要了解的应该是社会问题
27.omit 省略，遗漏 他的爸爸没有遗漏任何对她有造诣的教育上的东西。
28.arise-arose-arisen 出现，引起，及物不及物都有， arouse 引起，只有及物
句子中空的位置后面没有宾语，所以是不及物用法，只能选arise ，译为“问题产生了”

Answer 3

1.have passed表示本句的时态是现在完成时，四个选项中只有 since 可以接一般过去时做现在完成时的时间状语。
3.根据句意理解：知道现在空闲渐渐被理解为浪费时间。
4.little是否定意义的词，否定意义的词位于句首，动词要倒装。使用助动词+主语
5.bill指的是账单，charge 指的是小费。吃完饭后，人们应该向服务员要账单。
6.这是一个定语从句，point是一个名词，表示雨滴集中的地点所以应该使用where引导。
8.rain 是不可数名词，所以应该用 has +动词的过去分词。
11.and连接的词语前后形式要一致。可以理解为越富有、越有文化的文化的人。
12.根据句意，无论你做什么提议，他都充耳不闻。Whatever是无论什么的意思；however是然而的意思
13.主谓一致原则，主语其实是Mr Johnson,所以用is
14.specific的意思是具体的，details是名词，细节
17.根据句意理解，less than是少于的意思；没有little than这个词组
18.根据句意：他因为视力不好而被军队拒绝了。Stop 的意思是停止
24.根据句意：这些店主要经营古董，而不是现代商品。
25.what引导的是宾语从句，不是定语从句。
26.句意理解：政府通过民意点擦很了解人们对于社会问题的看法。Issue是问题的意思；subject是学科、主题的意思。
27.句意理解：她的爸爸从未忽略任何一个令她取得集大成就的事情。Omit是忽略的的意思，thought是想的意思。
28.出现问题：应该是arisen，但是，aroused是唤醒的意思。这可能是因为单词意思不理解而造成的。

我觉得做题的时候，不要过快地选择，多斟酌一下答案，这样会令准确率更高。
