Answer key 10
1.(D) the trip 是一段时间，也是一条路程，可用 on 或 along。 2.(B) owing to 类似 because of，表示因果关系。A和D都要加上 to 才能当短语 用，C的 viewing 不能当介系词用，只有 considering 可以这样使用。 3.(C) 用 at the sound 表示“听到声音那一刻，马上就冲出来”。 4.(B) a right to 表示“对于某事的权利”，是常用短语。 5.(C) 表示长宽（面积）的“ × ”读为 by。 6.(B) through 表示头尾包括在内，故一周中只有 Sunday 不开。 7.(B) 这是双重所有格，以 a home of his own 的方式来同时表示 a home 和 his own home。 8.(D) “以……之单价出售”，应用 at。 9.(A) 每周计算应用 by the week。 10.(C) 空格前的 to 是 close to 的一部分，应当介系词看待，因而要接动名词作宾 语。 11.(A) with prices so high 是以介系词短语方式来减化副词从句 be cause prices are so high。答案 C 的后面应改为 because of high prices 方可。答案B 和D都是从属连接词，可是后面的从句缺了动词。 12.(B） 本句中 the sun 指阳光，是立体的范围，故用in。 13.(B) on a cup of coffee…表示“只靠一杯咖啡……（来维持体力)”。 14.(B) becoming to one 表示“很适合某人（穿戴)”。 15.(A) 因为下文说 blurred (模糊)，故选 out of focus (没对好焦距)。 16.(B) 下文说观众哄堂大笑，前面则是“场合严肃”，故要表示“相反”的关系（ A 或 B )。而A的 although 是从属连接词，不能连接名词短语 the seriousness， 故用介系词的B。 17.(D) “除了”可手提，还可提供高品质音响。这个“除了”是“除了这还有那” 的意思，应用 besides。C的 beside 是“在…旁边”，A的 aside 是副词，B 的 far from 则是“决非……”。 18.(A) except for表示“除了……以外”，表示“这个不算”。 19.(D) regardless of 是“不顾，不管”。 20.(C) on behalf of 是“代表”。
