[单选题]Even if it ______ this afternoon, I will go there.

正确答案 ：C

rains

解析：解析：主句如果是一般将来时，状语从句一般用一般现在时。

[单选题]What is this report mainly about?

正确答案 ：A

Phone inquires about hotel bookings for the 2008 Olympic Games.

解析：解析：这是一个典型的大意理解题，其依据句就是文章的主题句，一般位于文章的开头。本文的主题句就是第一个句子“Beijing's top hotels are fielding scores of calls from foreigners and Chinese people eager to book rooms during the 2008 Olympic Games in the Chinese capital.”与A选项内容相符和。其他的选项内容并不是本文的主题，而只是细节信息或无关信息。

[单选题]At the foot of the mountain ______.

正确答案 ：A

stood a village

解析：解析：当句首状语是表示地点、处所的介词短语时，要引起全部倒装。D选项的错误在于其单词后没有加s。

[单选题]Which of the following statement is TRUE according to this passage?

正确答案 ：D

Not only foreigners but also native people wanted to book rooms for Games.

解析：解析：A和B选项与事实不符，属于错误答案；C选项也被否定，原因是文中说北京饭店并不接受提前这么长时间的预订，而只是记下预订人的姓名。D选项可以在文章中找到出处：“... the hotel had already received 50 to 60 such phone calls from would-be game-goers gambling on the result．Domestic callers have mainly come from the southern provinces of Guangdong and Fujian.”

[单选题]Which of the following objects was an important woodworking tool used by early American craftsmen?

正确答案 ：D

A chisel

解析：解析：应该在文章中找到每一个选项的单词在文中出现的地方，然后判断出其是否是工具还是木雕作品。只有D选项chisel一词与另一种工具knife作为并列关系同时出现，所以可以判定其为另外一种工具。其他选项代表的全是木雕作品。

[单选题]He was not as active as I had ______him to be.

正确答案 ：D

解析：解析：not as... as意为“和……不像”；recognize意为“认出”；inspect意为“检察，视察”；object是：反对(做某事)”；expect意为“期望，预期”。

[单选题]Wang (guest): That was a delicious dinner. Mrs. Willis (hostess): ______. Would you like to go to the living room now? It's more comfortable there.

正确答案 ：D

I'm glad you enjoyed it

解析：解析：客人对主人招待的饭菜有好评，主人一般会客气地说声“谢谢”或表示“很高兴受到好评”。A．Thank you．Don't mention it．后一部分不符合习惯，属于画蛇添足； B．You're welcome．一般用于回答别人的致谢；C．Not so delicious，I'm afraid．符合汉语习惯，在英语中则显得过于自谦。

[单选题]He was in a hurry and left things in a real ______.

正确答案 ：C

mess

解析：解析：in a mess意为“处于混乱之中”；mixture意为“混合，混合物”；mass意为“一块”；confusion意为“混乱，混淆”。

[单选题]According to the passage, the first settlers used wood for their utensils and tools because it was ______.

正确答案 ：C

available

解析：解析：注意题干上的信号词utensils and tools，以此为目标可以很容易地找到本题的依据句“Because of the lack of other materials，early settlers were forced to make tools and utensils out of wood.”选择C的原因在于当时十分缺乏其他材料而木材到处都有所以得到采用。available意思为“有，存在”。

[单选题]The passage suggests that the early shops for making tools were ______.

正确答案 ：A

not very sophisticated

解析：解析：本题的依据句是“At first，these articles were whittled with a knife，but when pioneer craftsmen set up their primitive shops most of them were fashioned on a lathe--a machine which holds an object and rotates it while it is being shaped by a tool.”在这里，A选项的not very sophisticated 意思为“并不复杂，是简单的”，对应原文中的primitive(原始的，简单的)。其他选项的内容属于无关信息。
