【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练(6.17)参考答案
1.B【句意】要是下雨,庄稼就有救了。
【解析】语法——虚拟语气的省略。由“在if从句中,如果出现“should、had、were”时,可以省略if,并且将should、had、were置于句首,即部分倒装。”可直接排除A和C项;再由“从句中的‘rain’是动词”可排除D项;因此正确答案是B项,表示对将来的虚拟语气。
2.D
【句意】在表面上,他们似乎否定某些广为接受的观点,然而,认为这些现象仅起因于偶然或误解而不予以考虑,这似乎是很难的。
【解析】词组辨析题。on the contrary“相反”;by and large“大体上,总的来说”;in other words“换句话说”;at face value“在表面价值上;在表面上”。由句中关键词“they seem to contradict certain widely held beliefs他们似乎否定某些广为接受的观点”与“yet it seems difficult to dismiss these phenomena然而不予考虑这些现象却似乎很难”的对应知“在表面上”符合语境,由此知D项正确。
