题目解答
答案
(2)考查动词短语。根据句意"该公司试图推出一款使用炼乳而非奶粉的改良牛奶巧克力棒,但其效果并不比以前的产品好。"可知要填的词为动词短语"fare no better并不比……好",根据前面句子的时态,可知描述过去的事情,所以用一般过去时态,故填fared no better。
(3)考查动词短语。根据句意"为了健康,我们应该减少摄入营养价值低的高热量和高脂肪食物。"可知要填的词为"cut down on削减",前面有情态动词,所以用动词原形,故填cut down on。
(4)考查动词短语。根据句意"废水和大气中不断增加的二氧化碳水平是对人类生命构成威胁的两大环境挑战。"可知要填的词为"pose a threat对……构成威胁",描述事实,所以用一般现在时态,主语that代指的先行词为名词复数,所以谓语为动词原形,故填pose a threat。
(5)考查动词短语。根据句意"最近的油价上涨与供需变化无关,而是市场不确定性的结果。"可知要填的词为动词短语"bear no links to没有链接到",前面有不定式符号to,所以用动词原形,故填bear no links to。
(6)考查动词短语。根据句意"大多数专家一致认为,进行实验的成本必须与研究可能为社会带来的潜在利益相权衡。"可知要填的词为动词短语"weigh …against权衡",和主语之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态,前面有情态动词,所以be动词为原形,故填be weighed against。
(7)考查动词短语。根据句意"为了节约自然资源和尽量减少废物处理,每个人都有必要养成回收利用的习惯。"可知要填的词为动词短语"economize on减少",前面有in order to,所以用动词原形,故填economize on。
(8)考查介词短语。根据句意"许多钓鱼电子邮件试图欺骗你,威胁说如果不立即更新,你的帐户将处于危险之中。"可知要填的词为介词短语"be in jeopardy处于危险之中",前面有will,所以be动词为原形,故填be in jeopardy。
