一、单项填空
1.—We had_ _____ really dry December this year.
—I can’t remember______winter when it rained so little.
A.a;a B.a;/
C./;the D.the;a
解析:句意:“今年十二月可真干旱。”“我从不记得有下雨这么少的一个冬天。”在语境中考查冠词的用法。两个空都表示泛指“一个”,因此都用a。
答案:A
2.The manager of the company told all of us that very little ______ was made of the waste material in the past.
A.use B.smell
C.value D.matter
解析:考查名词辨析。make much/little use of是固定搭配,此处用了被动语态。句意:公司经理告诉我们大家,在过去很少有人利用废弃材料。
