The law           equal rights for men and women.

permits

confirms

persevers

guarantees

考查动词辨析。句意：这个法律确保了男女权利平等。A.permit允许；B.confirm证实，证明；C.persever坚持；D.guarantee保证，担保。分析句意可知，空格处为动词做谓语，其主语为the law,为单数则谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。又因the law作用是保证公平。故选D项。

made

had 

kept

graded

考查动词辨析。句意：老师对我在这学期在学习上取得的进步非常满意，寄给我一本英汉词典。分析可知hat I had        in my study this term 应是之前名词the progress的定语从句，先行词在从句中属于固定结构make progress“取得进步”的宾语。故选A项。

used to

used to be

used to do

was used to

考查词组和省略式，used to do“过去常常’,be used to do “被用来做”，句意是：--你现在是志愿者吗？--不但我过去是，去年我为市运动会工作。可以排除D项，因为这是省略句，完整的是I used to be a volunteer。英语中如果不定式的部分是重复上文可以省略to后面的内容，但是如果to后面是be动词或助动词have，就不省略。选B。
