单选题 【K10】
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】解析:根据语义“您持续的______对我们公司十分重要”,所有选项都可作为备选答案。作答时不能仅根据空格所在句进行选择,而应对邻近的上下文进行把握。前句中提到“感谢您更新网络连接功能”,因此可推知收信人再次使用了该公司的网络服务。故名词(D)patronage(光顾)为正确答案。(A)patience意为“忍耐”,(B)success意为“成功”,(C)observation意为“观察;遵守”。
单选题 【K11】
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】解析:因为空格与逗号一起处于句首连接副词的位置,故根据前句和空格所在句的语义关系,应选择连接副词(A)、(B)、(C)、(D)中的一个。在前句中请求对方填写问卷调查,空格所在句则要求邮寄调查问卷,故表示时间顺序的(A)Then(然后)为正确答案。(B)However意为“然而”,(C)Meanwhile意为“同时,在这期间”,(D)Otherwise意为“否则”,语义皆不通顺。
单选题 【K12】
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】解析:根据上下文语义,此处意为“感谢您填写调查问卷,为表谢意,您将有机会获得一台新型台式电脑。”故(D)In appreciation of(感谢……)为正确答案。(A)In charge of意为“负责……”,(B)On behalf of意为“代表……”,(C)By means of意为“把……作为手段,借助于……”。
