Answer 2

upon与on在表示在...之上可以时可以通用（尤其在正式场合的英式英语中）
Once upon a time, there was a river ran through a small village.
on还可以表示日期：The PRC was founded on Oct.1st,1949.
以及相关性：Prof.Zhang gave a lecture on health.
above 和 over也都有...上的意思，但above是接触或不接触的，over泛指上方
There is a bridge over the river.
The water came above our knees.
We were flying above the clouds.
A captain in the navy ranks above a captain in the army.
水平有限，还有些区别建议多查字典（最好是英英字典）
选A 在1972年这一年的这段时间。

Answer 3

1.两个结构都对
2.realize是人做主语
come
true是梦想做主语
3.可以
4.语法上可以，意思上有点牵强
5.set
about:
开始,着手
1.
You
must
set
about
your
work
at
once.
你必须立即开始工作。
2.
Do
you
know
how
to
set
about
going
on
this
work?
你知道怎样着手进行这项工作吗？
6.lose
heart
固定搭配
失去信心
7.选B
8.A
B的意思是我们野餐的最高点，是山的最高点，我们只在一个地方野餐
9.这两个词都是形容词old的比较级，但词义和用法有所不同。
（一）older专指年龄的大小而言，既可用于一个家庭成员之间，又可用于非同一家庭成员之间；elder专用于同一个家庭成员之间的比较，有时用作转义，指职位、身份较高的人。例：
He
is
older
than
his
brother．
他比他的兄弟年长。
二）older只能用作形容词，常与than连用；elder
既可作形容词，又可作名词，它决不能和than连用（例句见上）。
（三）在美国，“哥哥”、“姐姐”有人用older
brother
和older
sister，而不用elder
brother（sister）。
下面是初学英语的人常犯的错误：
She
is
the
older
of
the
two．（错）
She
is
the
elder
of
the
two．（对）
这两个人中，她的年纪较大。
He
is
my
older．（错）
He
is
my
elder．（对）
他的年龄比我大。
请注意，elder只能用来指人，不能指物；older既可以指人的年纪，也可以指物的新旧。例如：
Mary
is
three
years
older
than
Betty．
This
is
the
oldest
temple
in
Hong
Kong．
Oldest和eldest的区别与older和elder的区别相同。
