When            to someone,I usually say, "Pleased to meet you."

introduce

introduced

introducing

am introduced

考查过去分词和省略。句意：当我被介绍给别人时，我通常会说：“很高兴认识你”。根据句子结构可知，本句是when引导的时间状语从句，原句when I am introduced to someone,这里当从句主语与主句主语一致时，并且从句的谓语动词有be这时从句的主语与be同时省略，所以空格处introduced。故选B项。

grade

glad

bad

land

考查语音。句意：下面哪个不包含这个发音[ae]? grade的发音是[greId]; glad的发音是[glaed]; bad的发音是[baed]; land的发音是[laend]。故选A项。

All we need          a piece of advice on how we can improve our time management.

are

is

were

was

考查be动词和时态。句意：我们需要的只是一条关于如何改进时间管理的建议。分析句子可知，说明一般情况应该用一般现在时，这句话的主语是All we need, 所以为主语从句，当主语从句作主语时，谓语动词用单数，所以用is。故选B项。

by; for

with; by

for; by

about; with

考查介词。句意：他因为孩子们的粗心惩罚他们赔偿损失。根据句意可知：“their carelessness"表示他们被惩罚的原因，需用介词for表原因。"making them pay for the damage"表示他们被惩罚的方式，需用介词by表方式。故选C项。
