答案與解析
1.【答案】A
本題考查固定搭配。本句意為他們的業(yè)余生活要由陌生人來照料。in the hands of是固定搭配,表示“由……控制或照料”。
2.【答案】B
分析句子語法結(jié)構(gòu),grown children過去分詞作定語,意為長大的孩子,過去分詞做定語表示完成或被動。
3.【答案】C
regular 定期的、有規(guī)律的;normal 正常的;constant 經(jīng)常的;lasting 持續(xù)的。根據(jù)上下文,該句的意思是:他們沒有定期來看望的人。所以選C。
4.【答案】A
根據(jù)前面的myth(神話)說明這個故事是imaginary 不真實(shí)的、虛構(gòu)的;而imaginable 可想象的;imaginative 富于想象力的;imagery肖像,故選A。
5.【答案】A
分析句子語法成分。the care做先行詞,被that引導(dǎo)定語從句所修飾,其余三個詞不能引導(dǎo)定語從句。
6.【答案】B
根據(jù)上下文,此處的意思是“研究美國家庭是如何改變的”,how引導(dǎo)賓語從句,表示“如何、怎么樣”。
