答案及解析
1. 【翻譯】私人轎車(的增多)使交通問題比以前更加嚴(yán)重了。
[考點]比較級
【精析】B 在比較狀語從句中,比較級常和than搭配使用;bad的比較級形式為worse,且比較級前一般不加the。
2. 【翻譯】吃水不忘挖井人。
[考點]詞義辨析
【精析】D 選項中的四個詞均為指示代詞,this和these指較近的人或物,that和those指較遠(yuǎn)的人或物。this和that指代單數(shù)名詞或不可數(shù)名詞,these和those指代復(fù)數(shù)名詞。由定語從句who dug it可知,先行詞只能用表示復(fù)數(shù)意義的指代較遠(yuǎn)的人的those。
3. 【翻譯】盡管很久以來美國以移民國家著稱,但是種族歧視仍然存在。
[考點]詞義辨析
【精析】B radical:激進的;racial:種族的;crucial:至關(guān)重要的;diplomatic:外交的。根據(jù)句意可知,選B。
4. 【翻譯】你的作文里似乎有一些錯誤。
[考點]主謂一致
【精析】D“There+動詞+to be+主語+…”是there be結(jié)構(gòu)的變體,能用于這種句型的動詞有:seem, appear, begin, come, continue, happen, start等。而且在there be結(jié)構(gòu)中,be動詞的單復(fù)數(shù)形式與緊跟其后的主語相一致,所以由主語some mistakes可知,選項D為正確答案。
5. 【翻譯】想創(chuàng)業(yè)的人必須先有一些資金。
[考點]詞義辨析
【精析】D currency:通貨,貨幣;income:收入;wealth:財產(chǎn),財富;capital:資本,資金。根據(jù)句意可知,選D。
