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。

All we need          a piece of advice on how we can improve our time management.

are

is

were

was

考查be动词和时态。句意：我们需要的只是一条关于如何改进时间管理的建议。分析句子可知，说明一般情况应该用一般现在时，这句话的主语是All we need, 所以为主语从句，当主语从句作主语时，谓语动词用单数，所以用is。故选B项。

They elected him          captain of the team for         second time.

the; a

a; the

a; a

/; a

考查冠词的用法。句意：他们再次选他当队长。职位，官衔前面不加冠词，a second time表示“又一次，再次”；the second time表示第二次（顺序）。故选D项。

---Shall we have a talk with her tonight?

---There is no        talking to her. She will never listen.

good

value

point

worth

考查名词词义辨析。句意：---我们今晚要和她谈谈吗？ ---和她谈话没有意义，她不会听。A.good 好处  ； B.value 价值；C.point要点；D.worth价值。根据句意可知可知，此处是固定表达There  is no point (in) doing sth 做某事没有意义。故选C项。

— 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。
