  • 29.A“need”在“has”后面作名词的表达是“haveaneedforsth.”,意思是“需要某物”,所以A项正确。30.C“gowrong”的意思是“出错,出问题”,这里的“go”作系动词。“leave”和“come”都是实义动词,形容词不能跟在其后作表语。因此C项正确。31.B对本题的三个选项进行分析可知,空格处所缺的词是关联词。“although”可以引导让步状语从句;“but”后面的句子应该与其前面的句子形成转折关系;“if”则是引导条件状语从句的。将这三个选项应用到原句发现A、C项会造成句子的逻辑不通。因此B项正确。32.B通过上下文看出空格所在句的语法结构是本题的解题关键。首先,空格处所缺的词作句子中“between”的宾语,因此选项“they”可以被排除。其次,由于“and”连接的并列结构,所以“(32)______thatlimpalong”与之前的“businessesthatboom”的句子结构是一样的,代表/表示“businesses”的词应该是空格处的单词。虽然“these”和“those”都是指示代词,指代提到的复数性名词,“those”指代将要提到的,而“these”一般指代前面提到过的。在本文章中,前面提到的蓬勃发展的“businesses”不是空格处的词需要指代的,而是将要提到的艰难前行的“businesses”才是指代的内容,所以要用“those”。因此B项正确。33.C固定短语“havesomethingtodowith”是本题考查的内容,意思是“与…有关”。“alot”,“little”,“nothing”等词可以替换该短语中的“something”一词,表示不同的意思:“havealottodowith”意思是“与…有很大关系”,“havelittletodowith”的意思是“与…几乎没有关系”,“havenothingtodowith”的意思是“与…没有任何关系”。因此C项正确。34.A情态动词的用法本题考查的内容。“can”意思是“能够”;“ought”必须与“to”连用,意思是“应该”;“shall”也表示“应该”,但要跟在“I”或“we”的后面。根据上下文的意思,应该选择表示“能够”而不是“应该”之意的词,所以A项正确。35.A关系代词的用法是本题考查的内容。这里figureout的宾语是空格处所缺的词与其后面的“motivatesthem”构成的从句,而且空格处的词在其引导的从句中充当主语。虽然that、which和what这三个选项都能引导宾语从句,但是当引导词既要作从句的主语而且不表示具体的意思时,就只能填what,因为“what”做引导词时意思与“thething(s)that”相同;that、which不能体现这个意思。因此A项正确。36.C“time-consuming”的意思是“费时的,耗时的”,因此C项正确。37.B根据空格后面的“whocomealong”这个定语从句中的谓语动词的形式可以判断,空格处的词应该是单数形式但意思表示的是复数概念的名词或可数名词的复数形式,所以可以排除“person”文章在这里谈论的是如何选人,“people”是个表复数概念的名词,但是其复数形式“peoples”的意思是“各民族”,所以应排除“peoples”。因此B项正确。38.A由于“or”连接两个并列的句子,所以前面的“tofillthejobquicklywithoneofthefirstfewpeoplewhocomealong”和后面的“…someonewhoisonlysufficient”句子结构应该一样,这里是与“to”构成不定式,修饰“temptation”,因此,动词原形应该是正确的形式。所以A项正确。39.B根据文章最后一段的第一句话可知,句子“youwanttostop…andgetbacktoyourbusiness”是表明这样做的原因,而非结果,所以可以排除“so”。“while”表示“而”,表示两个动作的对比。因此表示原因的B项正确。40.C根据上下文的意思可知,这里是停止面试而回去工作,“stopdoingsth.”的意思是“停止做某事”,所以C项正确。
