“only＋状语”位于句首，整个句子用不完全倒装．此外，由then可确定用过去时态．

考查名词词义辨析。句意：一些人认为是一个缺点，而其他许多人则认为这是一个优点。A.duty责任；B.drawback缺点； C. failure 失败；D. faith信念。根据空后plus“优点”可知，空处需用drawback“缺点”与之对应。故选B项。

did the computer repair

he repaired the computer

was the computer repaired

the computer was repaired

句意：直到我的朋友来了之后电脑才被修理。放于句首的only修饰时间状语从句after my friend came，主句应进行部分倒装，将助动词was提到主语前面，故选C项。

考查构词法。本题中考查了复合形容词的构词法，“使用副词+过去分词” 构成新的形容词，如“newly-discovered”最新发现的；本句中“poorly-paid报酬极少的”。句意：尽管这是一份报酬极少的工作，但他仍然花了很多时间和精力做它。故选C项。

So difficult __________ it to work out the problem that I decided to ask Tom for advice.

 I did find 

did I find

 I have found  

have I found

句子使用的基本句式为so…that…结构。按英语语法，当该结构的so…置于句首时，其后的句子(主句)要用倒装语序，如：So loudly did he speak that even people in the next room could hear him. 他讲话声音那么大，隔壁屋里的人都听得见。

While crossing

Cross

这题考查时间状语从句的省略式，当主从句的主语一样时，可以省略从句的主语和be动词，这题的while crossing就省略了you are，句意是：当你过马路时，别忘了两边看看。选C。
