Answer 1

DBACD CAABC ADBBA CCADC
1.此句中指出的是:中国人该找到的空间。显然用room, 而不是其它实物体名词。
2.journey和trip只作名词,travel和tour既可作名词,又可作动词; travel正式的通常概念上的旅行,最后一定要返回出发地;tour侧重到多处观光,强调路线曲折。
3.根据句意,中国人是首次登北极,故用first。
4.选项A、 B和D不合句意;announce多强调宣布公众所关心的社会问题。
5.短语a while ago方才, 刚才。
6.hold back阻止, 抑制; 其它搭配均不合句意。
7.which引导非限制性定语从句,关系代词which在从句中作主语。
8.根据句意,此处该用介词during。其它为连词,不合句意。
9.作几个常用词的用法比较:rise(太阳、水、气等的)升起;raise(人为的)升起;lift举起;carry携带。
10.众所周知的时刻,known as polar day作定语,修饰a time。
11.版图与扩展之间存有主谓关系,故用spreading。
12. work out设计出, 做出;pick out 挑选; keep out 使在外; carry out贯彻, 执行。本句句意为:中国在实施着许多研究,目的是想了解更多的北方气候和环境的变化。故选D。
13.根据第12题句意,可知。
14.such as表示列举, for example =" for" instance举例说明,such that如此。
15.have something to do with 与......有关。
16.选项A、D不合句意;B为不及物动词;故选C。
17.in greater depth意为在更深层处,greater强调与此之前的含蓄比较。
18.include强调包含有,而contain表示内容,不用进行时,including为介词。
19.of与抽象名词连用相当于该名词的形容词,即of great support =" very" supportable。
20.为which was established的省略形式。
