1.B

【句意】他们用力擦洗地板直到木料变白。

【解析】动词词义辨析。sweep（其过去式为swept）“打扫；席卷；挥动，舞动（手、臂等）”；scrub（其过去式为scrubbed）“用力擦洗；使净化”；dust（其过去式为dusted）“把（粉末）撒于；拂去灰尘”；tidy（其过去式为tidied）“整理；收拾；弄整齐”。由关键词“until the timber had turned white直到木料变白”知“用力擦洗”符合，由此知B项正确。




2.C

【句意】私人电脑对普通人来说不再是遥不可及的，现在它们是可容易获得的。

【解析】副词词义辨析。promptly“敏捷地；迅速地”；instantly“立即地”；readily“容易地；乐意地”；quickly“迅速地”。由句中关键词“are no longer something beyond the ordinary people对普通人来说不再是遥不可及的”与“available可获得的”的对应知“容易地”符合语境，故C项正确。
