1. 【解析】would rather (=had rather)意为“宁愿,更喜欢”。它接从句时,通常不用连接词that,从句中的谓语动词要用虚拟语气形式,即用一般过去时表示现在或将来的愿望;用过去完成时表示过去的愿望。如:I would rather you paid the money yourself now.(现在)(我宁愿现在你自己去付钱。)I would rather she hadn’t done that.(过去)(我宁愿她没那样做。)因此,题句中[A]应改为went。[B]can’t bear意为“不能忍受”,后面可接名词、动名词或不定式(接不定式与动名词时区别不大),如:She couldn’t bear the thought of losing him.(她不敢想失去他的情况。)[C]your being是带逻辑主语的动名词,作介词of的宾语。[D]such修饰不可数名词weather,不能加冠词a。
2. 【解析】一般来讲形容词修饰名词,表示名词的属性;副词修饰动词和形容词,说明其程度、方式等,本句中psychological是形容词,因此不能再修饰另外一个形容词able,[B]应改为副词psychologically。形容词essential后接从句时,谓语动词要用“(should)+原形”的虚拟语气形式,因此[A]正确。[C]brought about是过去分词短语,作impact(影响)的后置定语。[D]planned是过去分词,作economy的前置定语。
3. 【解析】 dislike可接动名词或不定式作宾语,区别在于:动名词表示一般和抽象的意义;不定式表示具体某次、某个行为或动作。如:I dislike getting up early in the morning.(我讨厌早起。)I dislike to mention it, but you own me some money.(你还欠我一些钱,我本不想提这事。)本句中论述的是一般的情况,因此[A]to allow应改为动名词allowing。[B]构成固定搭配allow sb. to do sth.的一部分。[C]all为限定词,修饰important matters。[D]tightly为副词,修饰动词keep。
4. 【解析】[C]you与前面的a person指代不一致,a person泛指“一个人”,可以用第三人称单数he来替代,因此[C]应改为he。[A]项does是谓语,其主语是each cigarette,单复数一致。[B]some在肯定句中修饰不可数名词harm。[D]its是cigarette的所有格形式,修饰effect。
5.【解析】than用作连词时,要与形容词或副词的比较级连用,因此[B]应改为are more likely或are much more likely。[A]on the whole为固定短语,意为“总的来说”。[C]干扰性较大,很多考生认为are是多余的,应省略。其实整个句子原来是ambitious students are more likely to succeed in their studies than those with little ambition are(likely to succeed),比较对象是主从句的两个主语,从句的表语省略时,从句要采用倒装结构,即,将助动词are前置。[D]with(little ambition)是介词短语,修饰those(students)。
