解析
本题考查对短语含义的理解以及在具体语境语境中的运用。解题的关键在于分析句子的意思，然后判断各个选项的短语是否能使句子通顺且表意合理。
- 句子 “The completion of the building ( ) May.” 的意思是“这座建筑的完工（ ）五月”，这里需要一个合适的表达应该是说明完工时间与五月的关系。
- 选项A “was scheduled for” 意思是“被安排在……时间点”，“The completion of the building was scheduled for May.” 表示“这座建筑的完工被安排在五月”，语义通顺合理。
- 选项B “refresh my memory” 意为“唤起我的记忆”，与句子语境不符。
- 选项C “would give anything/the world” 表述不完整且不符合句子逻辑。
- 选项D “related to” 是“与……有关”，不能准确表达完工和五月的时间安排关系。
- 选项E “choke back” 是“忍住，抑制”，与句子意思无关。
- 选项F “frowned on” 是“不赞成，反对”，不符合句子语境。
- 选项G “make a point of” 是“强调，表明”，不能用于描述完工时间。
- 选项H “settled into” 是“适应，习惯于”，迁入”，与句子表达的完工时间不相关。
- 选项I “make the most of” 是“充分利用”，不符合句子并非表达利用五月的意思。
- 选项J “let alone” 是“更不用说”，不符合句子逻辑。
- 选项K “in his own right” 是“凭借自身的能力，本身”，与句子内容无关。
- 选项L “took pains to” 是“费尽苦心”，不能用于描述完工时间。
- 选项M “fit in with” 是“与……相适应，与……一致””，不符合句子语境。
- 选项N “on his part” 是“就他而言”，与句子表达的完工时间的意思不相符。
