winner.A.value

B.worthy

C.worth

D.worthwhile參考答案：B【詳解】考查形容詞。句意：她在比賽中的出色表現(xiàn)證明她是個當之無愧的勝利者。worth是一個只能作表語的形容詞，意思為“值……的。worthy可作表語，也可作定語。作定語時意思為“有價值的”、“值得尊敬的”、“應受到賞識的”worthwhile與worthy一樣，既可作表語，又可作定語。表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花時間、金錢或努力去做，一般做“值得的”。本句中缺少定語，所以C選項錯誤。D選項能做定語，但是意思不符合句意。故B選項正確?！军c睛】worth、worthy、worthwhile的用法區(qū)別這三個詞都是形容詞，都有“值得的”的意思，但用法或搭配關系不同。1.worth是一個只能作表語的形容詞，意思為“值……的”、“相當于……的價值的”、“有……價值的”、“值得……的”。由于它類似介詞，須在后面接名詞、或主動形式的動名詞作賓語。例如：2.worthy可作表語，也可作定語。作定語時意思為“有價值的”、“值得尊敬的”、“應受到賞識的”；用作表語時意思為“值得……的”、“應得到……的”，其后接ofsth.，也可以后接todosth.，例如：3.worthwhile與worthy一樣，既可作表語，又可作定語。表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花時間、金錢或努力去做，一般做“值得的”、“值得做的”、“有意義的”解。用作表語時，可接動名詞或動詞不定式。本句中worthy“應受到賞識的”作winner的定語，故B選項正確。5.Everywinterholiday,Iwillgobacktomyhometownandstaywithmygrandparents,whereIdon'teven________checkingemailoranythingelse.A.mind

B.hasbeenraining,letupC.hasrained,letout

D.hasbeenraining,letout參考答案：B考查時態(tài)和動詞短語辨析。句意：整個上午一直在下雨，我們不知道什么時候雨會停。由句意可知，rain這個動作一直持續(xù)到現(xiàn)在，并且還會持續(xù)下去，故第一個空要用現(xiàn)在完成進行時態(tài)。letup意為“停止，減弱”，letout意為“發(fā)出（聲音），將（衣服）放大”。故B選項正確。23.Shakespeareisconsideredasthegreatestwriterofworldliterature.______theplays,hehaswrittensomepoems.
