解答 1~15 DBCDD BBDAB ADCBC
1.D 考查动词. 本句的意思是"街道的两旁排列着很多各种各样的商店",build的意思是"建造,修建",design的意思是"设计",intend意思是"打算",line是"沿…排列"的意思.
2.B考查形容词. varied是"变化多端"的意思,various为"各种各样的",sorted意为"分类的",mixed-up意为"困惑的,迷惘的,不适应社会的".根据句子里的look at all sorts of merchandise:clothing,furniture,hardware,groceries可知,商店是各种各样的.
3.C 考查介词短语. 本句的意思是"除了各种各样的商店销售各种各样的商品之外,有些商店还提供服务",apart from意为"除此之外",后必须接名词或动名词,however是连词"然而"的意思,in addition可单独使用,意为"除此之外",as well用在句末.
4.D 考查名词. medical care意为"医疗护理".food是"食物",cosmetic是"化妆品",service是"服务",根据上题意思,service一词放在这里最合适.
5.D 考查副词. 本句的意思是"在五十年代,情况发生了变化",有转折的意思.suddenly和abruptly都是"突然"的意思,contrarily指"相反地",but是"但是"的意思,表转折.
6.B 考查动词短语. take place只有主动语态,故可排除C,而begin to后应接动词不定式,只有take place"发生"可用.
7.B 考查短语. be available to sb.为固定搭配,意为"对某人来说可用的,可得到的",本句意为"顾客可用的停车场地",故选B.
8.D 考查介词.根据句意可知"商人们开始对城市界限以外的开阔地感兴趣",out of表示"…的外面"而outside指"超过某一个界限,范围等".
9.A考查动词.通过句子里的small new stores推测"购物中心是从聚集一些小的店铺开始的",只有started as有此意.
10.B 考查介词短语.根据句意可知"远离拥挤的市中心",out of指"在…之外",away from表示距离,"远离",next to指"靠近,下一个",near是"近"的意思.
11.A考查动词.attract和句子主语customer之间是被动关系,为"被…所吸引",surprise意为"使…惊奇",delight意为"使…喜悦",enjoy意为"欣赏,喜爱".
12.D 考查名词. 本句意为"顾客从市区被吸引到城市以外的商业中心",只有downtown"市区"符合此意.
13.C 考查名词. 根据本句句意"这些购物中心越来越大的名气反过来导致了更大,设备更好的商店的建成".distinction声望;fame卓越,好名声;popularity名气很大,知名度很高;liking喜爱,喜好.故选C.
14.B考查短介词语. 根据上题解释,in turn应为"依次"的意思,引申为"反过来".
15.C考查名词. 这里convenience与providing组成短语"提供方便,便利",符合上下文义.本句意为"商业街被变成了带有长椅、喷泉及户外娱乐的风景优美的公园".
