考博英语每日一练(12.22)参考答案
1.C
【句意】由于长时间不下雨,田野都干涸了。
【解析】语法结构——独立主格表原因。由句中关键词“for a long time长时间”的对应知空格处应该使用完成时态,故可以直接排除不是完成时态的B项“Having no rain”和D项“There being no rain”;再由这里两个句子之间存在因果关系知空格处只能使用独立主格来表示原因,由此知属于独立主格的C项“There having been no rain”正确。
2.A
【句意】他穿着短裤和短袖汗衫,露出肌肉发达的腿、胳膊和强壮的脖子,而这些掩饰了他灰白的头发。
【解析】动词词义辨析。belie“掩饰;证明……是虚假的”;deny(其动词过去式为denied)“否认;拒绝给予”;rely(其动词过去式为relied)“依赖;信任”;believe“认为;相信”。由句中关键词“well-muscled legs and arms and a strong neck肌肉发达的腿、胳膊和强壮的脖子”与“grizzled hair灰白的头发”的对应知“掩饰”符合,故A项正确。
