【预测精解】

1. D。句中tired and hungry= and he was tired and hungry

2. B。the impossible指“不可能的事”，又如，the unexpected出乎意料的事；possible在句中作the impossible的补足语。

3. A。口语中that / this=so(如此、这么)。

4. C。sound是系动词，后接形容词作表语。friendly, lovely等虽以ly结尾，但却是形容词。

5. D。形容词的排序：描绘+形状+物质材料+名词

6. A。由关键词No可知，不可能比这更差的(worse)了。

7. A。hope后接名词须用for；句意是：在一年中的这个时候不可能有比这更好的天气了。

8. C。more不可修饰比较级，排除B和D。greater…than others是最高级意义，后面也用最高级。

9. B。population不与many, few等搭配，而要与large, small连用，常识告诉我们杭州人口比上海少得多，因此用small。

10. D。只有表示实际距离的远，才可用farther(此时也可用further)，否则就用further。further education进修。late迟的；later后来；lately=recently近来；latest最新的。

11. A。“没去看”是因为影片不太(less)有趣(interesting)。far在less前加强语气。

12. C。still / even / much less更不用说、更何况。

13. D。“至少和我昨天煮的一样味道好。”not+比较级+than表示前者不如后者；no+比较级+than表示前者和后者一样不…。no worse than=as good as。请比较：(1) Tom’s not taller than John.=Tom’s not as tall as John. (2) Tom’s no taller than John.=Neither Tom nor John is tall.=Tom’s as short as John.

14. D。more…than…(与其说…倒不如说…)表示对同一人或物的不同方面的取舍，不管形容词是几个音节，一律用more。

15. D。倍数的表达：four times as big as=four times bigger than=four times the size of。

16. D。“the+比较级，the+比较级”意为“越…就越…”。

17. D。common sense常识。general(总的、普遍的)，normal(正常的、正常状态), ordinary(普通的), common(常见的、共同的)。

18. B。I feel strongly that…=I firmly believe that…我坚信…；directly直接，马上；hardly刚刚，几乎不；badly不好，非常。

19. B。still仍然、还；even甚至、连；still和even都可修饰比较级，表示“更”。yet在疑问句中意为“已(经)”，在否定句中意为“还(没有)”，在肯定句中意为“到目前为止”；already(已经)一般只用于肯定句，若用于疑问句，则含有惊讶之意。

20. C。merely=only, simply仅、只不过；particularly=especially尤其、特别地；gently温柔地、轻轻地。

21. C。在no, nobody, none, nothing, never之前，只用almost(实际上、简直)。mostly多半。

22. D。是因“感到激动(excited)”而流泪，而不是“令人激动的(exciting)”泪水。

23. D。therefore=for that reason因此；howerer然而、无论多么；besides而且、还有。

24. C。though(虽然如此、然而)作副词，常位于句末；indeed的确、确实；anyway=anyhow无论如何、不管怎样。

25. B。alone(独自、独立)可作形容词和副词，在句中可作表语或状语；若位于名词或代词后，意为“仅仅、只有(=only)”。lonely(寂寞的)只作形容词，可作表语或定语。句意是：我虽孑然一身，但从不感到寂寞。

26. A。句中more than=not only不只是。此外，它还有“多于(=over)”“非常(=very, extremely)”等意。又如He was more than pleased.他十二分高兴。
