Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything that is offered them and a child rarely dislikes food {{U}}(31) {{/U}} it is badly cooked. The way a meal is cooked and served is most important and an attractively served meal will often improve a child's appetite. Never ask a child{{U}} (32) {{/U}}he likes or dislikes a food and never discuss likes and dislikes in front of him or allow{{U}} (33) {{/U}} else to do so. If the father says he hates fat meat or the mother refuses vegetables, in the child's hearing he is{{U}} (34) {{/U}} to copy this procedure. Take it {{U}}(35) {{/U}} granted that he likes everything and he probably will. Nothing healthful should be omitted from the meal because of a supposed dislike. At meal times it is a good{{U}} (36) {{/U}}to give a child a small portion and let him come back for a second helping rather than give him as {{U}}(37) {{/U}} as he is likely to eat all at once. Do not talk too much to the child{{U}} (38) {{/U}} meal times, but let him get on with his food; and do not{{U}} (39) {{/U}}him to leave the table immediately after a meal or he will soon learn to swallow his food so he can hurry back to his toys. Under{{U}} (40) {{/U}}circumstances must a child be coaxed (哄骗) or forced to eat.
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[解析] unless意为“除非”，引导状语从句，相当于if not。根据上文，这里需要一个表示“排除”的连词以便和句中rarely构成双重否定。A、B、C项都不合题意。
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析] ask后的直接宾语是一个从句且其成分齐全，所以不能用what或which。根据句意，这是一个表示疑问意思的句子，谓语由or连接，而“whether…or…”常用来引出一个选择疑问句，表示“是……还是……”。
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析] 否定词never是关键，决定了此处应选anybody；而everybody，somebody均用于肯定句中；nobody则构成双重否定，不合句意。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[解析] possible和likely都表示“可能”的意思，但它们用法不同，分别为：sb.is likely do sth.或It is possible for sb.to do sth..A项表示“愿意的”，C项表示“被迫的，”均不符合句义。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[解析] “take it for granted that…”意为“视……为当然”，属于固定搭配。
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[解析] idea指“主意”，符合题意。point表示“要点，理由”，custam表示“习俗”， plan表示“计划”，都不合题意。
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析] 根据句子的意义与所给选项，这里需要选择一个表示食物量的词。食物是不可数名词，所以不能用D项many或C项few。A项much和B项little都可修饰不可数名词，A选项符合此句中“觉得好吃，会再要的，而不要一次给得太多”的意思。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[解析] 这里指在吃饭时不要和孩子说太多的话。四个选项中，on和by不能表示“在……期间”；over可表示“在……期间”，但一般不和time连用；during表示“在……期间”。
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析] agree意为“同意”，常与with连用，后面接sb.；allow意为“允许”；force意为“强迫”；persuade意为“劝说”。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[解析] 此主句是一个倒装句，所以前面的状语应表示否定，只能选择D项。“under no circumstance”意为“决不，在什么情况下也不能”。
