1.A new system of quality control was brought in to overcome the defects in the firm’s products.

A) invested B) introduced C) installed D) insisted

答案及解析:B. 解题思路：借助画线短语核心词(bring)的基本含义—“带来/引起”，并借助与画线结构相直接相关的结构含义(质量控制系统被。。)判断B是答案。

Invest: vt.(常与in连用)投入(资金，精力，时间等)

e.g. Ive invested a lot of time and effort in this plan. (喻)

我已在这计划中投入了大量的时间和精力

insist: vi, vt(常与on, that连用)主张;坚持, 坚持要求(宾语从句跟虚拟语气结构)

2.Techniques to harness the energy of the sun are being developed.

A) convert B) store C) utilize D)receive

答案及解析: C. 解题思路：被选项是动词时关注所给句子中的空格后续结构，因此关注原句中的宾语：the energy of the sun(太阳能)。被选项中：convert通常用在convert…into…的结构中，而原句中没有这样的结构，所以排除A;而根据句意凭借常识store(储存)和 receive(接收)太阳能不是刚发展的新技术，所以也排除掉。答案为C。

补充：

convert: vt.(常与into连用)转变;变换; 兑换

e.g. That building has been converted into a school.

那座楼房改成学校了。

e.g. I want to convert some Hong Kong dollars into American dollars.

我想把一些港元换成美元

3. Hundreds of years ago cloves (丁香)were used to remedy headaches.

A) disrupt B) diagnose C) evaporate D) cure

答案及解析: D. 解题思路：备选答案均为动词，关注原句中的宾语headaches(头痛)。解题思路：在习惯搭配上，B和D都可带“疾病类”的词作宾语，但头痛不用diagnose (诊断)，却可cure (治疗)头痛，所以答案为D。另外diagnose 的用法是：diagnose… as...，如：The plastic surgeon diagnosed my illness as a rare bone disease./整形外科医生诊断出我的病是一种罕见的骨病。

4. Experts generally agree that diet has an important bearing on ones health.

A) result B) factor C) cause D) influence

influence n. (常与on连用)影响力;感化力; vt. 影响

e.g. Many a woman has had an influence upon her husband. 许多妇女对其丈夫有影响。

5. Mary was compelled to take in washing to help support her family.

A) pleaded B) appealed C) forced D) instructed

答案及解析: C. 解题思路：借助句意：Mary。。在家里帮别人洗衣服以帮助养家糊口。而C的含义最合适句意。被选项中：

补充：

appeal常用appeal to sb./sth.的结构，表示：“呼吁，恳求，吸引，引起兴趣”;to appeal for aid/求助;

plead是 “恳求，托词，以…作藉口，为…辩护;为…抗辩”，plead the rights of the unemployed /为失业者的权利据理力争;

instruct教;通常的用法是：instruct sb. in sth. 如：instruct a class in history /教授一个班的历史;(常与to inf连用)命令，如：instruct sb. to start early /命令某人早动身

6. They had a far better yield than any other farm miles around this year.

A) goods B) soil

C) climate D) harvest

答案及解析: D。在该句中yield 是用作名词(因为该词的前面有不定冠词a)，解题思路：抓住句子中与划线部分相关的结构或用词特点。能与不定冠词a搭配使用的被选项只有C和D(气候，倾向， 风气，如：a mild climate温和的气候)。再借助句子中其他特征词：farm，判断harvest“收成”是答案。

Yield: vt, vi出产, (常与to连用)放弃;投降;让步 n. 产量;收成

e.g. That tree yields fruits. 这种树结果。

e.g. The army yielded when it was attacked.
