单选题 【K10】
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】解析:既能充当介词for的宾语又可以被“冠词+形容词”(the grand)结构修饰的应为名词,故名词(A)和(B)为备选答案。根据上下文语义,此处意为“下个月餐厅盛大开业”,故与空格前的grand连用,构成“开业”之意的名词(B)opening(开业;开始)为正确答案。如选择名词(A)open(户外;公开),则句意不通顺。副词(C),动词或分词(D)都不能放在名词的位置。
单选题 【K11】
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】解析:根据上下文语义,此处意为“由有才华且______的音乐家组成”,四个选项都可成为备选答案。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。后句说到乐队可以演奏爵士、摇滚和其他风格的音乐,可知乐队是由多才多艺的音乐家们组成的。因此形容词(C)versatile(多才多艺的)为正确答案。(A)global意为“全球的”,(B)selective意为“选择性的”,(D)acceptable意为“可接受的,合意的”。
