41. Whether Thomas will close the deal still remains_____.
A.see B.to seen C.to be seen D.seeing
41.C【解析】“remain(to be)+形容词/名词”是一个句式,并且后面接形容词的形式更常见。remain to be seen意为“有待考虑”,最好记住。有时to be 被省略,直接跟过去分词,起形容词的作用,做remain 的表语。
42. By next year it_____necessary to double the production quota to keep up with market demands.
A.were B.will be C.has been D.being
42.B【解析】空格内应填入单数形式的谓语动词。这里不需要分辨主动语态和被动语态,只要考虑时态。时态在大部分情况下都是解题的提示。出现next year,所以选B
43. At the time this session ends, all the attendees should follow the signs _____ the exits on the right side of the conference room.
A.of B.to C.through D.for
43.B【解析】follow the signs 意为“根据指示牌”。表示地点转移的介词是B.C 和D 选项。意思是让大家根据指示牌到达出口,因此正确答案应为表示“到达(某处)”的to。
44. When customer service representatives speak to customers over the phone, they should always speak_____.
A.hardly B.clearly C.respectably D.respectively
44.B【解析】遇到副词,要考虑它和动词的搭配。speak clearly 意为“说得很明确”。hardly 用在be 动词和助动词的后面、一般动词的前面,所以出现在speak 的前面才对。respectably 意为“可敬地”如果是respectfully 则可以被选。
45. The familiarity factor is so important that two-thirds of the companies he invests in_____in the neighboring area.
A.locating B.being C.located D.are located
45.D【解析】本题的句子分析非常重要,空格内应填入谓语动词。主语是“三分之二的公司”,he invests in 是关系代词引导的定语从句。因此,排除A 选项和B 选项。locate 是及物动词,但是后面没有宾语,所以应填入被动语态。
46. The_____information concerning this project will be provided for your convenience.
A.specification B.specifically C.specific D.specify
46.C【解析】空格内应填入形容词,因为是在冠词和名词之间。在这样的结构中,空格里往往应填入形容词。
47. We can discuss it with the manager,_____not with the customer himself.
A.while B.and C.after D.yet
47.D【解析】and 和yet(=but)都是连接平行成分的连词。空格前后都各有一个“with+名词”(介词+名词),这就是解题的关键。第二个with 的前面省略了we can discuss it,因此在and 和yet 之中应当选择含有but 之意的yet。
48. Prospective employees must have a master's degree to be eligible_____the positions described below.
A.to B.for C.despite D.about
48.B【解析】把“be+形容词+介词”当作固定用法来记忆。“be eligible for+名词/to do”意为“有资格做某事”。
49. If our budget for office supplies_____,all new requests for them will have to be
approved a case-by-case basis.
A.is exhausting B.are exhausting
C.is exhausted D.will be exhausted
49.C【解析】空格内应填入动词的单数形式。以ex-开头的动词是及物动词。没有宾语则应使用被动语态,也就是选择C 或D 选项。最后,要掌握时间条件状语从句的用法。
50. The company is likely to be prosecuted because it has dumped environmentally hazardous materials_____.
A.illegal B.illegally C.illegality D.illegalizing
50.B【解析】当空格前是个完整句子时,空格内应填入副词。
