　　—Oh, sorry. I need to go to the bookshop________the bank on Saturday.

　　A．convenient; and

　　B．convenient; as well as

　　C．available; with

　　D．available; as well as

　　解析　考查形容詞及詞組的用法。convenient的主語不能為人，常用于it is convenient for/to sb.結構，先排除A和B兩項。根據答語意思“既要去書店又要去銀行”可知，第二空要用as well as。

　　答案　D

　　A. enough active still

　　B. enough still active

　　答案　C

　　5．—Did you wash your new suit in hot water?

　　—Of course not. I am not ________foolish.

　　A. very

　　B. that

　　C. very much

　　D. too

　　解析　that 在此用作副詞，不是代詞，用法相當于so。其余三者填入空格處語意不通。

　　答案　B

　　—I don’t know, but I’ve found________for ours to win.

　　A. probable; it unlikely

　　B. likely; it possible

　　答案　A

　　10. Fred is second to none in maths in our class, but believe it or not, he ________passed the last exam.

　　A. easily B. hardly

　　C. actually

　　D. successfully

　　解析　首先應弄清 second to none 的意思，照字面理解是“對誰都不是第二”，言外之意就是“第一”，或者說是“最好”。再聯系句中的 but 可知，選項 B 最恰當。

　　答案　B

　　11．(2011·四川成都市摸底)I can’t give you an answer right now. I’d like________more time to consider my decision.

　　A．still

　　B．fairly

　　C．quite

　　A．as twice

　　B．twice much

　　答案　D

　　—OK, but do you have________size in blue? This one’s a bit tight for me.

　　A. a big

　　B. a bigger

　　C. the big

　　D. the bigger

　　解析　從句意看，空格處應填比較級bigger，因此排除A和C。選項B與D的區別是，一個用了不定冠詞，一個用了定冠詞，兩者的區別是，不定冠詞表泛指，定冠詞表特指。

　　答案　B

　　14. If there were no examinations, we should have________at school.

　　A. the happiest time B. a more happier time

　　C. much happiest time

　　D. a much happier time

　　解析　由于是將有考試與沒有考試作比較，所以應用比較級，不用最高級，由此排除A和C。選項B的錯誤在于用了more happier這樣的雙重比較級(即more后不能再加比較級)。

　　答案　D

　　15．—Did you enjoy yourself at the party?

　　—Sorry to say I didn’t. It was________a meeting than a party.

　　A. more like

　　B. quite like

　　C. less like
