We played well, but I felt the team were            by one member, who didn’t try his best on the court.

let down

turned down

picked up

cheered up

考查动词短语辨析。句意：我们打得很好，但我觉得有一个队员在场上没有尽最大努力，让整个球队失望了。A. let down 使失望，放下；B. turned down 拒绝，调小；C. picked up捡起，接；D. cheered up使兴奋，振奋。结合句意可知，“有一个队员在场上没有尽最大努力”，所以“我们”感到失望。故选A项。

          no bus,we had to walk home.

There was

There being

Because there being

It being

考查独立主格结构。句意：没有车，我不得不走路回家。根据句意，表示“存在”，要用there be 句型；分析句子可知，设空处应用非谓语动词，there be只有主动形式，故用现在分词；因为非谓语动词有自己独立的的主语no bus,所以此处是独立主格结构。故选B项。

He punished the children          their carelessness         making them pay for the damage.

by; for

with; by

for; by

about; with

考查介词。句意：他因为孩子们的粗心惩罚他们赔偿损失。根据句意可知：“their carelessness"表示他们被惩罚的原因，需用介词for表原因。"making them pay for the damage"表示他们被惩罚的方式，需用介词by表方式。故选C项。

---I think you are different now.

---Of course，times have changed and________.

so have I

so I have

neither have I

neither I have

肯定的陈述句后，跟so+主语+谓语，表示强调：确实…，其主语与前陈述句的主语相同；肯定的陈述句后，跟so+谓语+主语，表示…也…，其主语与前陈述句的主语不同．根据times have changed，可知对另一个"我"说时代也已经变了，用倒装句，本句是现在完成时，含有助动词have，主语为I，在这里还用助动词have完成，故选A．

---Have you moved into        new office?

---No, the building is under          construction.

a; the

the; /

/; the

/; /

考查冠词。--你搬到新办公室了吗？--没有，大楼正在建设中。new office 谈话的双方都知道，所以是特指，需要用定冠词the,第二句under construction 指“正在建设中”，是固定搭配。故选B项。
