1. A。either指两者中的“任一”;each指两者或两者以上中的“每一”;one用来替代“a / an +单数可数名词”;it替代“the +单数名词”。
2. C。从I really don’t mind.可知,tea和coffee两者中任何一种都行。指两者中“任一”,用either;“都”,用both;“都不”,用neither。指两者以上的“任一”,用any;“都”,用all;“都不”,用none。
3. B。由I’m afraid 可知,Monday和Tuesday两天都不可以。
4. C。三者中的任一,用any。
5. B。依据语境,指“你喜欢的任何一天”,所以选any。one day指过去或以后的“某一天”;some day指以后的“某一天”;another day指“另一天、改日”。
6. C。关键字是all和but。
7. C。此处的all=the only thing“惟一的事”。有时all=everything:All / Everything I have belongs to you.
8. A。another后一般只能接单数可数名词,但可跟“数词或few +复数名词”,another two weeks = a further two weeks = two other / more weeks。在1995和2000年的NMET中都考过another的这种使用方法。
9. A。考试知识点同8题。another $15就是another 15 dollars。
10. C。some…others…一些…另一些…;the other指两者中的“另一个”:some other后需要接名词;没these others如此的说法。
11. C。句意为:Sarah读过美国作家的很多故事,目前她想读一些别的国家的作家的作品。
12. D。wheat是不可数名词,前三个答案只能指代可数名词,而the rest既可指代可数名词也可指代不可数名词。
13. A。句意为:新的规章规范奏效吗?奏效,几乎没什么书失窃了。none后要加of才对。
14. A。由于not…everything构成部分否定,与前一分句意思相符;而not…anything=nothing,与前一分句意思矛盾;something一般不需要于否定句。
15. C。that=the one=the pleasure。而those=the ones=the pleasures与其后的修饰语不符。除此之外,that还可替代不可数名词,而one, the one, those则不能。如The weather here is better than that in Beijing.
16. B。尽管后面有肯定语从句修饰,但仍须用one,由于one是an unforgettable moment的同位语,能替代“a / an +名词”的只能是one。又如Cook was a strict but good captain, one who took good care of the sailors on his ship.
17. C。替代“a / an +名词”用one。此处one= a break。
18. D。it替代“the+名词”,指前面提到的同一事物,此处指the Parkers所买的那座新房屋;one一般只指相同种类事物。此题若去掉but,就用which。
19. A。反身代词作宾语、表语时,须与主语一致;作主语或宾语的同位语时,须与主语或宾语一致。此处,作主语they的同位语,所以用themselves。
20. D。此句是Why do you ask me to go and join…?之省略。另外,me还可在简略回答中或感叹疑问句中作主语。如:
—Who wants a ride on my bike? —Me! / Not me!
—I like swimming. —Me too.
—You can tell him. —Me tell him? Not likely!
21. A。blame是及物动词,排除副词when和how。该受责备的是打碎玻璃的人,故用who。
22. A。指上文提到的事一般用that,指下文将要叙述的事用this。it指时间。
