考查情态动词。句意：根据协议，所有款项应在月底付清。shall用于法律，条款中表示必须要做的事。故选C项。

a 8-year-old boy

an 8-year-old boy

a 8-years old boy

an 8-years old boy

考查形容词和冠词。句意：看！那边有一个8岁的男孩。你认识他吗？空格处为复合形容词作定语，其基本构成形式是：数词+名词（单数）+形容词，并且要用连字符连接，排除C和D项；8发音以元音音素开头，需用不定冠词an修饰。故选B项。

Though ____ the dangers of smoking to their health, smokers still find it hard to give up smoking.

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

— Father, you promised!

—Well,____．But it was you who didn't keep your word first．

so was I 

so did I 

so I was 

so I did

考查部分倒装“So + be/情态动词/助动词 + 主语”与表强调的“So + 主语 + be/情态动词/助动词”区别。根据语境“you promised（你许诺过）”和答语“But it was …”可知爸爸回答“我的确许诺过”，且promised是过去时，所以表强调要用助动词did,故选D。句意：——爸爸，你许诺过。——好啦，我的确许诺过。但是是你先没有遵守诺言。

Only then_______ how much damage had been caused.

she realized

she had realized

had she realized

did she realize

“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．
