　　答案与解析:

　　1.adapt oneself to life/ living in different cultures

　　本题考查对常用搭配adapt oneself to的掌握。adapt to意为适应，在主语不明确的情况下，adapt后通常用反身代词oneself泛指所有人。To在这里是介词，后须接名词life in different cultures或动名词living in different cultures.

　　2.nothing is more attractive to me than reading/to me, nothing is more attractive than reading

　　本题考查对比较结构及固定搭配的掌握。Attractive有吸引力的比较级形式为more attractive, 对有吸引力用be attractive to sb来表示.

　　3.nothing is would have had a chance to survive/would have a chance of survival

　　本题考查对虚拟语气的掌握。表示与过去事实相反的虚拟句中，从句谓语要用had+过去分词形式，主句谓语要用would have+过去分词形式。有机会活下来可以用have a chance to survive /have a chance of survival来表示.

　　4.might feel lonely when they are far from home/when they are traveling

　　本题考查对might表推测用法的掌握。Lonely强调主观上感到考试大孤独和寂寞，常用句中作表语或定语.

　　5.at a speed/rate of 12 million per year/at an annual speed /rate of 12 million

　　本题考查对短语at a speed/rate of的掌握。Million在表示确切数目时其后不能加S.
