第一节：单项填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)

　　从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

　　1．Eating too much fat and sugar can ________ heart disease and high blood pressure.

　　A．result from　　　　　　 B．attend to

　　C．devote to D．contribute to

　　解析：选D　句意：吃太多的脂肪和糖会引发心脏病和高血压。result from"产生，起因于"；attend to"照料，处理"；devote ... to"专心于"；contribute to"引发"。故D项符合句意。

　　2．The system has been designed to give students quick and easy________to the digital resources of the library.

　　A．access B．passage

　　C．way D．approach

　　解析：选A　句意：新设计的系统能够让学生便捷、容易地搜索到图书馆的电子资源。这里give ... access to ...是固定词组，表示"能得到，能进入"，所以选A。

　　3．He delayed ________ her the news, waiting for the right moment.

　　A．to tell B．telling

　　C．to have told D．having told

　　解析：选B　句意：他没有马上把消息告诉她，等待适当的时机再说。delay后接动名词而不跟不定式作宾语，可排除A、C两项；tell 并非发生在delay之前，可排除D项。

　　4．(天津高考)It was not until near the end of the letter ________ she mentioned her own plan.

　　A．that B．where

　　C．why D．when

　　解析：选A　句意：直到将近信的结尾她才提及了自己的计划。本题的题干为强调句型，被强调部分为not until near the end of the letter，故选A。

　　5．We don't have enough books for ________； some of you will have to share.

　　A．somebody B．anybody

　　C．everybody D．nobody

　　解析：选C　句意：我们没有足够的书给每一个人，你们中的一些人将不得不共用。根据后半句可知，此处应用everybody, everybody与not连用构成部分否定。
