　　答案：　B

　　2．解析：　考查动词短语辨析。live up to符合；put up with忍受；keep up with赶上，保持，及时了解；look up to尊敬，敬仰。句意为：我经常上网以便及时了解国内外最新消息。

　　答案：　C

　　3．解析：　这是it作形式宾语的一种特殊用法。少数动词如like，love，enjoy，hate，appreciate等后接宾语从句，必须先由it担任形式宾语，再接从句。

　　答案：　D

　　4．解析：　由语境可知，不到20%为女性，也就是说大部分为男性，所以选A。in the majority为固定搭配，意为：占多数，过半数。

　　5．解析：　考查名词性从句。下句意为：问题是我们该如何帮他避免犯同样的错误。根据语意可知，应用how引导该表语从句。

　　答案：　A

　　6．解析：　考查主语从句。句意为：他突然想起他把钥匙落在办公室里了。It occurred to sb.that...表示“某人想起……”。it 在句中作形式主语，真正的主语是 that 引导的从句。

　　答案：　D

　　7．解析：　句意为：遗憾的是，研究表明81%的教师对他们的薪水不满意。A项“总结”，B项“建议，暗示，使认为”，C项“推断，暗示”，D项“显示，表明，象征，暗示，指出”。

　　13．解析：　考查动词的时态和语态。根据句中的hit和became可知，此处应用一般过去时，且injure与people之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用被动语态。

　　答案：　A

　　14．解析：　考查非谓语动词。“be said/reported/considered/believed＋动词不定式”表示“据说/报道/认为/相信……”。另外，根据句意可知，poison这一动作发生在is said之前，故空处用不定式的完成时，选C。

　　答案：　C
