1. Few people do not complain about the tedium of their jobs
解析:本题考查对形容词few和动词短语complain about的掌握。few作形容词时意为很少的,少数的,用来修饰可数名词复数,表示少得几乎没有。complain about sth.意为抱怨某事。tedium沉闷,单调乏味,为不可数名词。
2. only to be told that she couldnt come by then
解析:本题考查对only+不定式结构的掌握。only+不定式结构相当于一个结果状语,意为结果却...,表示事情的发展令人不快或与预料相反。被告之...表明不定式要用被动式。that宾语从句作动词told的宾语,从句的时态应与主句一致。by then在此处指到将来的某个时候。
3. not so much a rise in birth rates as a fall in death rates或more a fall in death rates than a rise in birth rates
解析:本题考查对能够表达与其说是......,不如说是......的结构及含义的掌握。not so much...as...和more...than...都可以表示与其说是......,不如说是......。
4. rather than proclaims ones own
解析:本题考查对rather than的用法。rather than可以用来连接并列成分,表示而不是的含义。
5. what really made me decide to buy it
解析:本题考查对what引导的主语从句的掌握。根据句子结构,前半句是Although引导的让步状语从句,而主句中只有系表结构,缺少主语,故需要翻译的部分应该是一个主语从句。what和that都可以引导主语从句,但that只起引导作用,不在从句中充当成分,而what可以在从句中充当主语、宾语或表语,故本句只能使用what。
