Answer 1

36.B   

解析： 根據(jù)下文可知：人和昆蟲在這種情況下是很不相同的，而不是近似的，所以我們不能選擇其他選項。

37.C   

解析： 短語make every possible effort的意思是盡一切可能去做某事。是一個常用短語。

38.D   

解析： 此題考查動詞短語的搭配。give (one's)attention to注意; 關心；pay attention to注意, 重視, 傾聽；draw sb.’s attention to sth. 促使某人注意某事。根據(jù)意思應該選擇D項。

39.A    

解析：上文的show mercy on暗示我們此處應該是一個不幸的人，故選A。

40.C   

解析： 此題還是考查動詞辨異。pass by經(jīng)過, 掠過；leave out省去, 遺漏；set out出發(fā), 開始, 裝飾等；get up起床。

41.B   

解析： 根據(jù)后文知道蜂王是藏在車身的后面，蜂群是跟在他的車后，故選B。

42.D   

解析： 因為車后有嘈雜聲，所以他要下車檢查。

43.B   

解析： 中途停車，檢查沒有問題后他要繼續(xù)趕路。故而要選擇B項。

44.D   

解析： 隨著汽車的啟動，蜂群也要繼續(xù)追趕汽車，所以立刻又起。根據(jù)意思排除其他幾項。

45.B   

解析： 他聽到聲音迅速轉(zhuǎn)過頭來，看后面是怎么回事。

46.A   

解析： 等他轉(zhuǎn)過頭來，他才發(fā)現(xiàn)車后跟著一團“黑云”，那是黑壓壓的蜂群。

47.C   

解析： 有人告訴他，蜂群能始終繞著他的車在飛，而不離開，說明一定時有蜂王隱藏在他的車上。Nearby 更形象的描繪了蜂群繞車飛舞而不遠離的情形。

48.D   

解析： 當他知道這一切后，他開車飛奔想擺脫蜂群的糾纏，可想而知這是一個小時的艱難旅程。

49. A   

解析： 由后文暗示可知他找到了一家hotel.

50. D   

解析： it was not long before 這是一個固定句式，常譯為“沒過多久，就……..”

51. C   

解析： 沒有多久，一位剛才看見他進來的人“急忙”趕來告訴他關于他的車的事。

52. B   

解析： 那人告訴他：他的車已經(jīng)被蜂群團團圍住了。Crowded是擁擠的，不符合題意。

53. A   

解析： 有人給他出主意，“建議”他去找一個養(yǎng)蜂人。

54. A   

解析： 從上句中可以看出正確答案的。

55. C   

解析： 養(yǎng)蜂人得到了一個蜂王和它的蜂群，這自然是一個意想不到的收獲了！故我們應該選擇unexpected.較為合適。
