— Is it my age ________the boss minds?
—I’m afraid so. He will consider ________ necessary to have an experienced assistant.

which；it

that；it

which；that

that；that

考查强调句型和it的用法。第一空that与it is构成强调句型。第二空it是一个形式宾语，真正的宾语是不定式to have an experienced assistant，选B。

Wouldn’t it be         wonderful world if we lived in         harmony with nature?

a; /

the; /

a; the

the; the

考查冠词和短语。句意：如果我们与自然和谐相处，这不是一个美好的世界吗？第一个空中，world表示泛指，应用不定冠词且wonderful发音为以辅音音素开头的单词，故应用a;第二空短语in harmony with表示“与....和谐”，中间不加冠词。故选A项。

---It's burning hot today,isn't it?

---Yes,_____yesterday.

So was it

So it was

So it is

So is it

句意：“今天太热了，是不是？”“是呀，昨天也一样”。如果表示前面所说的肯定情况也适合于另一者，要用“so+助动词/情态动词/系动词+主语”。

The wise parents can tell whether their children are telling the truth         they listen to their excuses to wrong deeds.

the first time

every time

for the first time

for every time

考查时间状语从句。句意：每次听孩子对错误行为的辩解，聪明的父母都能分辨出他们是否在说真话。此处引导时间状语从句，表示“每一次” 应用every time。the first time表示“第一次”，与语境不符；for the first time作时间状语，不可引导从句；没有for every time 的表达方式。故选B项。

Lucy tried to help, but she was          as if she was  interfering, not helping.

dynamic

compulsory

scared

clumsy

考察形容词。句意：露西想要帮忙，但她笨手笨脚，好像在干涉别人，而不是在帮忙。A.dynamic动态的；B. compulsory 义务的；C.scared 害怕的；D.clumsy笨拙的。结合后文好像是在干涉别人，而不是在帮忙。可知露西笨手笨脚的。故选D项。

Writing out all the invitations by hand was more time-consuing than we             .

will except

are  excepting

except

had excepted

考查时态。句意：手工写下所有的邀请函要比我们预料的花去更多的时间。根据句意可知我们预料是在实际上写之前发生的，而本句中实际写花去的时间使用了过去时was，所以expect用过去完成时。故D项正确。

Last night I had just gone to bed          an odd delivery man knocked on the window of my house.

as

before

when

while

考查状语从句引导词。句意：昨天晚上，我刚刚上床睡觉突然觉得一个奇怪的送货员敲我房子的窗户。固定搭配had  done sth when表示某人刚做完某事突然.....故选C项。
