53、動汽車低碳環(huán)保；(2)電動汽車也存在很多問題，如價格昂貴，需要長時間充電等；(3)“我”的建議。答案:vocabulary & structure1、c解析 句意：極地探險家身體必須足夠強壯以忍受那兒的惡劣氣候和其他各種各樣的困難。詞義辨析題。選項a意為“粗暴的，粗略的”；選項b意為“鈍的，呆滯的”；選項c意為“堅強的，強壯的”；選項d意為“死板的，不易改變的(常用作貶義詞)”。所以答案為c。2、d解析 句意：自1945年以來所了解的人體內(nèi)化學(xué)變化比之前整個人類歷史所了解的都多。詞義辨析題。因為指示代詞that通常前指，即指代前面的時間1945年，而this通常后指。故答案為d。3、c解析 句

54、意：她是個幾乎沒有任何財產(chǎn)的窮婦人。詞義辨析題。owner意為“所有者”；interest意為“興趣，愛好”；possessions(復(fù)數(shù))意為“所有物，占有物，財產(chǎn)”；wealth(不可數(shù))意為“財富，財產(chǎn)，資源”。所以根據(jù)句中few可知，此處需要可數(shù)名詞，所以答案為c。4、c 解析 句意：委員會成員定期在每周六和周日早上碰面。詞義辨析題。選項a表示“反復(fù)地”；選項b意為“不斷地，連續(xù)發(fā)生地”；選項c意為“經(jīng)常地，定期地”；選項d意為“持續(xù)地，不間斷地”。由every一詞可知，本句強調(diào)“定期碰面”的意思。所以本題答案為c。5、a解析 句意：我和瑪麗打網(wǎng)球，但被她打敗了。詞義辨析題。所給的四個

55、選項均可表示“打，打擊”，但使用的語境不同。選項a意為“(不斷地)打，打敗，戰(zhàn)勝”；選項b意為“擊中，遭到，經(jīng)歷”；選項c的常用義項有“打，擊；襲擊；給以深刻的印象，罷工等”；選項d意為“(尤指用武器)攻擊，進(jìn)攻(某人)，抨擊”。根據(jù)題干所提供的信息，可以判斷選項a應(yīng)為正確答案。6、d解析 句意：當(dāng)他的妻子不相信他的話的時候，他努力地使她相信他是誠實的。詞義辨析題。選項a意為“阻止”；選項b意為“證明”；選項c意為“指控”；選項d意為“使相信”，常與介詞of連用。所以答案為d。7、d解析 句意：他在事故中受傷如此嚴(yán)重，所以不得不被送往醫(yī)院治療。本題考查so位于句首時的語法現(xiàn)象。當(dāng)so以及所修飾的成分位于句首時需用倒裝句，同時本句中空處表示“受傷”，因此應(yīng)用被動結(jié)構(gòu)，所以答案為d。8、b解析 句意：她不喜歡她的工作，可是她卻缺乏勇氣去尋找另外的工作。詞義辨析題。選項a意為“受到強烈的驚嚇而感到恐懼的”；選項b意為“缺乏勇氣而膽怯”；選項c意為“由于不安而感到憂慮”；選項d意為“害怕的，受驚的”。根據(jù)題意，答案為b。9、b解析 句意：我們沒有人清楚地知道其他人想要做什么。本
