A．/；the　　　　　　　 B．/；a C．the；the D．the；a 解析：the public表示“公众”；第二个空是不定冠词表示泛指的用法，a cure表示“(解决问题的)措施”。句意：公众关心的是政府能否找到解决此次金融危机的措施。 答案：D 2．She believed herself to be innocent；she went into the police station with her head highly______. A．raising B．raised C．risen D．to raise 解析：动词raise与其逻辑主语之间是被动关系，因此用过去分词表示被动。句意：因为她相信她自己是清白的，因此，她昂首挺胸地走进了警察局。 答案：B 3．He is only too ready to help others，seldom，______，refusing them when they turn to him. A．if never B．if ever C．if not D．if any 解析：本题考查考生在语境中灵活运用短语辨析用法的能力。此处seldom，if ever是一个短语，是“从不，决不”的意思。 答案：B 4．Andrea isn’t lazy；she’s just ______.She needs to work smarter，not harder.

A．There being B．Being C．Having D．There was 解析：考查非谓语动词作原因状语。there being表示“有”；而being表示“是”。此题中表示存在关系，不选用have。 答案：A 6．We have time and again ______ our position on Taiwan issue！Whatever happens，we won’t change it! A．explained B．clarified C．introduced D．concluded 解析：考查动词辨析。句意：我们已经反复阐明我们对台湾问题的立场！无论发生什么，我们决不改变！clarify one’s position“阐明立场，阐明观点”；explain“解释”；introduce“介绍”；conclude“总结”。 答案：B 7．Edison must have been very clever，______ he?

A．partly B．merely C．equally D．nearly 解析：考查副词词义辨析。equally此处表示“同样地”。句意：被称作春城的昆明因它那怡人的气候，不论在春天还是在冬天都是同样地吸引人。 答案：C 10．—Was it in front of the museum ______ you were visiting it inside? —Sure.But when I went out of the museum，my car was gone. A．that B．where C．which D．while 解析：句中的it代表car。如果看作强调句，那么答句和问句句意不符。while引导的是时间状语从句。问句句意：你在博物馆内参观时车就停放在博物馆门前吗？此题易错看作强调句，错选A项。 答案：D 11．—It has been nationwidely requir
