  答案与题解:

  1. B 根据上下文,这里应选择比较级,所以排除D,再根据句意,为更为人所熟知,因而better是正确答案。

  2. D 根据句意,词组搭配 at the top of ,表示在顶部最为合适。Height 意为高度,summit 意为最高点,peak 意为顶峰,所以选 D。

  3. C 根据句意,从卧室的角度看去,from 最为恰当。

  4. A 固定搭配 be famous for 意为以而著名,文中要表达的是伦敦塔以乌鸦而著名,因而 for 为正确答案。

  5. D 根据句意,David 是被提供了这样一个职位,所以 offered 最为恰当award 表示授予,applied 表示应用 ,presented 表示给予,呈现,均不符合句意。

  6. C 根据上下文,很容易理解 David 是这么迷恋这种黑鸟,因而毫不犹豫地接受了这个职位,所以 hesitation 为正确答案。

  7. A be aware of 表示意识到,有这样一命警觉。其他三项均不符合句意。

  8. B 固定搭配 maintain a tradition ,保持一个传统,maintain 最为恰当。hold 表示抓住,survive 表示存活,幸存,last 表示维持。

  9. B 固定搭配 make sure,意为确保,在文中表达的是确保这种状况不会发生,因而选 B。

  10. A 根据句意,David 每天大约用四个小时来护理乌鸦,表达出对乌鸦的爱护之情,devote 献身于,专用于最为恰当。spend 后需加动词 ing 形式。pass 表示经过, provide 表示提供,均不符合句意。

  11. D 这是一个定语从句,根据句意,David 已经爱上了它们,而他正居住在它们旁边是理想的,所以 fact 是正确答案。

  12. C keep an eye on 为固定搭配,意为注意,关注,所以选 C。

  13. C 根据句意,作者要表达的意思是起初,David 的妻子 Mo 并不感兴趣,因为只有词组 at first 表示起初,开始时符合句意。

  14. B be keen on 为固定搭配,表示对感兴趣,对热衷,interest 后面配介词 in ,fond后应配介词 of ,因此正确答案是 B。

  15. B 根据句意,作者表达的感情非常强烈,过去的那些都环绕在身边,所以 all 为最佳答案。
