Daniel has undertaken to keep the secret, so he won’t tell anyone even though ______.

asked to keep

to be asked

to ask

asked to

考查省略和过去分词。句意：丹尼尔答应保守这个秘密，所以即使问他也不会告诉任何人。此处是even though引导的让步状语从句，从句主语和主句主语都是he，和ask之间是被动关系，相同的主语和be动词可以省略，所以这里是过去分词作状语，且ask sb. to do sth.可以省略与前面相同的部分，只留下动词不定式符号to。故选D。

must

need

can

would

考查情态动词辨析。句意：你不需要知道作者的名字就能找到一本书。你可以按书名找到这本书。A.must必须，一定；B.need 需要；C. can可能；可能；D.would愿意。根据句意可知，此处表示一种客观的可能性，应使用情态动词can。故选C项。

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。

aware of

are aware of

be aware of

考查状语从句的省略：句意：虽然很多经常吸烟的人已经意识到抽烟对他们健康造成了很严重的后果，但是他们仍然发现很难戒烟。Though引导的让步状语从句是省略句，完整的句子是：though smokers are aware of the dangers of smoking to their health。当主从句的主语一致的时候，可以省略从句的主语和be动词，选B

serious

考查形容词词义辨析。句意：根据约翰逊教授的说法，如果我们不想读这本书，就不必读，因为它是可选择的。A. worthwhile值得的； B. necessary 必要的；C. optional 可选择的；D. serious 严肃的，认真的。根据“  we don't have to read the book if we don't want to”可知，这本书读不读都可以，由此可知它是“可选择的”。故选C项。

She reading

She reads

To read
