【解析】本题考查come短语辨析。come up动词短语，无被动语态，意为“走近；上来；发芽；流行；发生；被提出；上升”。come up with意为“(针对问题等)提出，想出，提供”，其主语是人。

D．for; since
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查考查because, because of, as, since 辨析。分析空后的句子成分，依据句意可知，应选B项because 是连词，引导原因状语从句，而because of 是复合介词，后面接名词或者代词等。because/as/since/for because表示直接原因，语气最强。回答why提出的问题只能用because。在强调句型中，也只能用because。 as用于解释做某事的原因，语气较弱，通常位于主句前。 since表示的原因是指人们已知的事实，常意为“既然”。语气比because弱，但比as强。通常位于主句前，并常与as换用。 for并列连词，连接并列分句，表示一种补充说明，是推测或判断的理由，语气较弱，不可位于主句前。有时可表示直接原因，相当于because。

A． to persuade B．trying to persuade
C． persuadingD．try to persuade
B
【解析】本题考查非谓语动词。It’s no use doing sth.为固定用法，表示“做某事没用/只是白费力气”，由此可以排除A和D；persuade sb. to do sth.意为“说服某人做某事”，强调劝说成功。如果劝说不一定成功，可用词组try to persuade sb. to do sth. 根据句意“劝说他戒烟是没用的”可知不一定成功，故答案为B项。

trees every year and the number of them
increasing.
A．plant; is

－Class Three
A．Which team do you think will win

C．Do you think will which team win
D．Which team will you think win

16．After ________ series of unsuccessful attempts, he has finally passed
________driving test．
A．/;theB． a; theC． the; aD． /;a
【解析】本题考查冠词。a series of是固定短语，意为“一系列；一连串”，所以第一空用不定冠词a；第二空用定冠词the，特指驾驶考试。句意：经过连续几次的失败，他最终通过了驾驶考试。

A. have run out
B. are running out
C. have been run out
