　　答案与解析

　　1.【答案】No matter how frequently performed

　　考查no matter how“无论如何”引导的状语从句。

　　2.【答案】they are apt to make trouble

　　①be apt to表示“易于做某事”，指人的机体或精神上的固有的或习惯的倾向等;②make trouble表示“惹麻烦”。

　　3.【答案】Much as I admire him as a writer

　　①让步状语从句：much as表示“尽管……”，as 引导的让步状语从句，其主要结构为：形容词/副词/名词 + as/though + 主语 + 谓语，much表示程度;②admire him as a writer译为“崇拜他是作家”。

　　4.【答案】while his mind was wandering

　　①while表示“却……”;②mind was wandering表示“胡思乱想”。

　　5.【答案】can we adapt(ourselves)to the society quickly after we graduate

　　本题考查对倒装句、adapt的用法以及after引导的时间状语从句的掌握。only引起的状语位于句首时，句子须部分倒装。本题中要将情态动词can提前。adapt作“适应”解时常用于adapt(oneself)to sth.的结构。

　　6.【答案】What he really hopes for

　　本题考查主语从句。例如：What matters to us is how to make our campus life meaningful and fruitful.对我们来说，重要的是如何让我们的校园生活有意义、有收获。

　　7.【答案】more mobile shops(should)be set up in the residential area

　　表示“建议、命令、要求、想法”的动词所接的主语从句通常用“(that)sb.(should)do”的虚拟形式。

　　8.【答案】needn’t have borrowed it from the bank

　　本题考查虚拟语气的用法，needn’t have done的结构是“本不必这样做而做了”的意思。

　　9.【答案】It is because she is too inexperienced

　　没有经验可以用一个形容词来翻译，即inexperienced。

　　10.【答案】will be doing/conducting the experiment

　　本题考查将来时态的用法，“做实验”既可用do experiment也可用conduct experiment。

　　11.【答案】However hard some people in the audience tried to upset him

　　表示为难，此处用upset，当然我们也可以用made sb.in a difficult position，或embarrass sb.。

　　12.【答案】whether/if robots will one day have vision as good as human vision

　　whether/if引导后置的主语从句

　　13.【答案】wondering about his real purpose

　　leave sb.doing 让继续处于某种状态;leave sb.to do sth.让某人干某事

　　14.【答案】followed my advice, you would not be in trouble now.

　　虚拟语气在if 引导的条件句中的用法。从句：if + 主语+ 动词的过去式(be 用were)+ …… 主句：主语+ would(should, could, might)+ 动词原形+ ……

　　15.【答案】of failure to fulfill its promise to improve urban traffic conditions/of failing to fulfill its promise to improve urban traffic conditions

　　本题考查对accuse的用法及短语fulfill one’s promise to…的掌握。Accuse“指责、控告”常用于accuse sb.of sth./doing sth.的结构，所以was accused of之后用failure和failing都可以。“实现……的承诺”用fulfill one’s promise to表示，to后接动词原形。
