Part I

1.B【分析】Duality（二重性）指语言表达有着双层构造的这个特点，最底层构造是顶层构造的构成成份。且各层都是有本身的组成标准。A为创造力，C为任意性，D为挪动性。

2.B【分析】Saussure（索绪尔）将讲话者的语言表达能力和言语的真实状况或语料库区别为言语和语言。chomsky关键科学研究转化成应用语言学，而Gilman和Brown全是社会发展批评家。

3.B【分析】Sociolinguistics（社会语言学）包含言语的社会价值和语言表达用户的时代特点，它科学研究语言表达组合的特点、他们的功用特点、发言者的基本特征及其这三者怎样在语言团队中不断地相互影响和转变。A为心理语言学，C为人们应用语言学，D为电子计算机应用语言学。

4.D【分析】smog是由smoke的上半部分和fog的下半一部分混和在一起组成的，brunch是由breakfast和lunch混和在一起组成的，这类构词法叫blending（混拼词）。abbreviation指简称词，acronym指首字母缩写词，back—formation指逆构词法。都不符句意。

5.A【分析】bead从初的含意“祷告”变化为“佛珠”，到之后的“水滴、刚珠”，词意已有别于初的含意，归属于meaning shift（词意迁移）。而B指词意扩张，C指词意变小，D指借词，都不符句意。

6.A【分析】题中考察复合句中的地址状语从句。本句的意思是：但凡有气体的地区，就会有O2。这儿wherever表明不管什么地方的含意，别的选择项都不符逻辑性。

7.D【分析】本句的意思是：加工厂昼夜不停地工作中，直至把订的货品赶出去才行。at times“有时候”；to the minute“正好，一分不低”：day by day“一天天”；around the clock“昼夜不停地”。

8.C【分析】本句的意思是：在这个企业工作中了十年之后，他总算获取了单位领导的岗位。achieve“造就”；approach“贴近”；attain“（一般 指经过不懈奋斗）得到，做到”；acquire“学得，取到”。故选C。

9.A【分析】题中考察虚拟语气。本句的意思是：如果我们明日沒有考試得话，大家便去参加音乐会了。这里If正确引导的从句中是对今后的客观事实反过来。固定不动的句法结构架构是if再加上were to do方式，因而仅有A项为标准答案。

10.D【分析】此题考察的是主语从句，A项是一个表语从句，是一个主系表的构造；B项是一个同位语从句，that正确引导的同位语从句补充说明先行词的內容；C项是一个宾语从句，that正确引导的宾语从句作谓语动词said的宾语；仅有D项是一个主语从句。it是一个形式主语，真真正正的谓语是后边的that从句一部分。

11.C【分析】本句的意思是：假定你觉得的是确实，也有别的的要素必须考虑到。这儿9rantedthat是一个固定搭配，表明“假设，即便”，what必须作said的宾语。B和D二项不符英语的语法，先清除，A项应该是supposing，因此也有误。

12.B【分析】题中考察专有名词分析。scarcity“欠缺，不够”；rarity“怪事，佳品，奇物，稀缺”（注重稀缺，少见）；invalidity“失效”：variety“转变，多元性”。

13.A【分析】本句的意思是：让生物学家开心的是，她们的勤奋提升了我们的节约水资源的（ ）。awareness“观念”；commitment“服务承诺”；agreement“合同书，允许”；response“回复”。依据句意，仅有A项符合逻辑性。因而标准答案为A。

14.C【分析】Chronology能够拆分为2个粘着词素，为chron.和-ology，因而回答为C。

15.B【分析】本句的意思是：从她的言谈举止看来，她有一个严苛的（ ）。growth“发展，生长发育”；upbringing“家教老师，修养”；development“发展趋势”；cultivate“塑造”。依据词义，标准答案应是B。行为举止反映一个人的修养。

16.B【分析】题中是与以往客观事实反过来的虚拟语气，假如省去if，语句要倒装句，倒装句时要将助动词提早，因而标准答案为B。

17.D【分析】题中是一个强调句型——“it was…that…”构造，因而标准答案为D。

18.C【分析】依据句意，你能睡在平台的沙发上，你还可以去附近的旅馆。可以表述这类挑选关联的连词只有是or。因而标准答案为C。

19.C【分析】本句的意思是：希望你暂且不必对这个问题做任何的评价。在would/had rather正确引导的宾语从句中，从句要用过去式表明对如今或未来状况的虚似，用过去完成时表明对以往状况的虚似。题中中表达对如今状况的虚似，故用过去式。

20.C【分析】本句的意思是：这一条河是那一条河的三倍长。普遍的倍数表达法有：倍率 比较级 than;倍率 the size/weight/height/length of;倍率 as lon9/old/high/heavy… as等。C项表述恰当。
