1.—Why don't you do some shopping in the secondhand store?
—Well,the goods there are ________,but ________.
A.more expensive; worse
B.more expensive; not as bad
C.cheaper; good enough
D.cheaper; not as good
答案与解析:D 考查形容词的用法。由语境结合常识可知,和新货比起来,二手店里的货物价格便宜,但是质量不如新货好。很显现这是把两种店里的货从价格和质量方面进行了比较,后面省略比较状语。
2.He has a terrible toothache.So his mother has to________all his food for him.
A.cut out B.cut off
C.cut up D.cut away
答案与解析:C cut up 切碎。句意:因为他牙痛的要命,所以他母亲不得不为他将所有的食物切碎。cut out 切掉,停止;cut off 切断;cut away 切掉,砍掉,均不符合句意。
