三、精典名题导解
题1 （NMET 2001）
The home improvements have taken what little there is _________my spare time.
A.from B.in C.of D.at
分析：C。该题考查介词用法。由于受in one’s spare time短语的影响，此题易误选B。此题的最佳答案是C。of在此表示“……中的部分/全部”，与名词little连用，little of my spare time意思是“仅有的业余时间”。该句为一个含有感叹式宾语从句的主从复合句，连接代词what连同所修饰的在从句中作主语的名词little提到从句之首。“a little of + 不可数名词”表示肯定，意为“一点，少许”；little前无冠词，表示否定，意为“少到几乎没有”。
题2 (上海 2000)
what he said just now _________me of that American professor.]
A.mentioned B.informed C.remind D.memorized
分析：C。句中需要的动词应该用于“v. + sb. + of sth.”结构中，A、D不能用于此结构。sb. inform sb.of sth.某人通知（报告）某人某事，不合句意。
题3 （NMET 1999）
Your performance in the driving test didn’t reach the required standard
—__________,you failed.
A.in the end B.after all
C.in other words D.at the same time
分析：C。本题考查介词短语作为连接性附加状语的用法。从题干看，选项之后是对前面所说内容的解释，in other words表示“换句话说、也就是说”，故为最佳答案。
题4 （NMET 1999）
John may phone tonight. I don’t want to go out__________he phones.
A.as long as B.in order that
C.in case D.so that
分析：C。in case 引导条件状语从句，意为“万一，若，以防”，其引出的从句常用陈述语气。
题5 （上海 2000春）
I shall stay in the hotel all day _________ there is news of the missing child.
A.in case B.no matter C.in any case D.ever since
分析：A。in case 作连词引导条件状语从句，意为“万一，以防。”
题6 （NMET 2000）
I don’t think I’ll need any money but I’ll bring some _________.
A.at last B.in case C.once again D.in time
分析：B。in case可以位于句尾，相当于一个副词词组。
题7 （NMET 2001）
It is generally believed that teaching is _______it is a science.
A.an art much as B.much an art as
C.as an art much D.as much an art as
分析：D。该题考查语序。题干是一个含有主语从句的主从复合句，it作形式主语，that引导的主语从句置于句子后部。在这个主语从句中，又含有一个as…as引导的比较状语从句，表示相同程度的比较。第一个as是副词，修饰形容词或副词，强调程度。当某些副词如so, as, too, how等用来修饰名词前的形容词时，不定冠词放在该形容词之后，名词之前。后一个连词as引导比较状语从句。答案为D。
题8 （NMET 2001）
The warmth of ________ sweater will of course be determined by the sort of_________wool used.
A.the ;the B.the ;不填 C.不填；the D.不填；不填
分析：B。该题考查冠词用法。第一空应填定冠词the, 定冠词用在单数可数名词前表不类属这一概念而不表示特指。第二空应不填冠词，物质名词在用来表示一般概念时，通常不加冠词，B为最佳选项。

Mark Shuttleworth is just 28 years old. He is about to feel out of this world. On April 22, Shuttleworth, who is a South African Internet millionaire, will set off for a dream trip to the International Space Station(ISS).
Taking a Russian Soyuz rocket, Shuttleworth will become the world’s second“space tourist”. Last April, wealthy Californian businessman Dennis Tito, who was 60, paid Russia US$20 million for an eight – day trip to ISS.
By the time he leaves for ISS,Shuttleworth will have had about eight months of full – time training.
“The training includes weightlessness and centrifuge(离心分离机)training, as well as learning how to use communications and control systems,”he said. Shuttleworth hates being called a tourist. He said he will take responsibility(责任)for radio and life support systems in the capsule(太空舱). He will carry out three experiments in space for South Africa. And he hopes to educate young people about space.
Shuttleworth will be met by astronauts at the Space Station. Among them is American Daniel Bursch. Living in space for more than a month now ,Bursch already misses some of the simple pleasures of Earth. In space he cannot, for example, enjoy taking a breath of fresh air on a winter morning.
“My family is probably the number one thing I miss —— like the children coming into my room and waking me up,”Bursch said last month in a space – to – ground interview. Bursch, who is the father of four children,landed at the station last December along with two co - workers. They will be on duty there for five and a half months.
“We have a mixture of Russian and US food. It’s excellent,”Bursch said.“But of course it would be nice to have a hotdog and a beer!”

The conflict(冲突)between India and Pakistan goes back more than 50 year.
In 1947,an old country ruled by the British was split(分裂),creating two new states – India and Pakistan ,and various regions in it held votes to decide whether they wanted to a part of India or of Pakistan. The results came in and the new borders were drawn up. But the transition(过渡，转变)had problems, the most serious of which were in Kashmir.
When the deadline for the vote passed, Kashmir had failed to choose whether it wanted to he part of India or Pakistan, therefore leaving the issue(争议、问题)unsettled.
Apart from the territorial dispute(领土争端)，there are other problems, religion,for example,that makes the situation in Kashmir even more complicated(复杂).
India and Pakistan have fought three wars since gaining independence,and in the last 10 years,fighting in Kashmir has claimed(夺去)the lives of between 30,000 and 60,000 people.
The recent tensions between them started in December 2001,when India’s Parliament building in New Delhi was attacked. India insisted that the attack was staged by Pakistan while Pakistan refused to admit this.
The unsteady situation in South Asia caught the attention of the world mainly because of the threat (威胁) of a nuclear war. Both countries are among only a handful of nuclear powers in the world(the others are the United States, Russia, China , Britain, and France). India and Pakistan shocked the world by testing nuclear weapons within weeks of each other in May 1998. It is believed that now India has about 100 to 150 nuclear warheads (弹头) and Pakistan 25 to 50.
The international community has been concerned(关切) with the tensions in this area. During a recent meeting aimed at better cooperation in the fight against terrorism (恐怖主义)，the European Union and 10 Asian nations including China, Japan and South Korea urged the two nations to take every necessary step to keep the peace.
