参考答案及详解

1. A) 根据句义“现在那些东西(指以上提到的 打字机、地球仪、百科全书)显得太落后了”可知，本空正确答案为A items

2. C) 通过分析本句结构可知此空所在句是一个从句，作主句的原因状语 ，结合选项可知 此空需要动词的过去分词表示“确信、相信”的意思，故选项C为正确答案，因为“be conv inced that”意为“确信、相信”。

3. B) 主句中动词为insist时，一般宾语从句应该使用虚拟语气，并且一 般情况下省略should。

4. B) 此空前it的使用法在语法上叫“虚义”it，因此它无法和talk abo ut, mention搭 配使用。come to有几种意义分别为“归因是”，“结果是”;“谈到”，“想到”;“总 共”，“共达”等。Turn to意为“转向，指向”等。根据上下文可推断句义为“当谈到计 算机的问题时，…”，由此可见此空应选B come to。

5. A) 根据句义“许多学校在没有制定良好的教学计划前，就屈从了家长 们的压力购买了电脑。”可判断此空应使用介词without。

6. A) 根据上下文可知学校迫于家长的压力不得不购买了电脑，这使得老 师们处 于两难境地，即家长的压力和明智正确的教育方针，故此空选A。clever一般用来指人。

7. A) agree on意为“同意”某某观点。Agree with后接人。

8. D) that用于此空引导定语从句。

9. C) 此句句义为“很多钱被用来购买电脑教学资料，但是研究表明用纸 和笔教学能达到 同样的教学效果。”可知，此空词应使此句构成比较结构，而选项A和B都没有此功能，选项 D意义不符，故选项C为正确答案，just as well原为固定搭配，意为“幸亏，幸而”，但在 此处是省略了第二个as的比较结构。

10. C) 根据句意“潜在的危险”可知此空正确答案为选项C。

11. C) adapt to意为“适应”。Devote …to意为“奉献，献身于”意义 不符。

12. B) 根据上下文可推断句义为：不是每个学校都能买得起电脑。故此空 选B。

13. D) 此空涉及yet的用法。首先可用排除法排除already, of course, i n addition， 因为他们要么意义不符，要么用法不符。Yet既可作副词也可作连词。作副词时意为“还、 仍然、尚”，常用于否定句中，如 Much remain yet to be done. / He has not yet hear d the good news.有时意为“已经”，常用于疑问句中。作连词时意为“而，然而，可是” 。此空yet符合第1种用法。

14. A) “agitate for”意为“鼓动，赞成”。

15. D) where用于此空引导非限定性的定语从句。
