1073B期試題解答，看你答對了幾題？

1. The car ＿ is economical but also feels good to drive.

(A) might as well (B) not only (C) no sooner (D) rather than

ANS: B

NOTE: not only ~ but also~  不只…而且…

2.Neither Peter nor his girlfriend ＿ aware of the car accident when they walked out of the restaurant.

(A) was (B) were (C) is (D) are

ANS: A

NOTE: neither ~ nor ~ 連接主詞時，動詞由最靠近的主詞決定單複數，所以his girlfriend決定動詞was。

3.The seminar was canceled ＿ the invitations were not printed in time.

(A) despite (B) although (C) however (D) because

ANS: D

NOTE: 空格要填「因果關係」的連接詞because；despite是介係詞，只接名詞片語；however是副詞。

4.To facilitate our efficiency, management has purchased more than 50 desktop computers, ＿are to be installed in the accounting section.

(A) many of which (B) for many (C) many of them (D) but some

ANS: A

NOTE: 關代which不但有代名詞的功能，可以代替先行詞computers，還有連接詞的功能，可以連接兩個句子。(C)修改成and many of them就正確了。

5.Don’t use any words＿meanings you don’t know well.

(A) that (B) whose (C) in which (D) on which

ANS: B

NOTE: 關代whose是所有格的概念，表「~的」。

6.If we had not ＿large funds for infrastructure projects, this development would not be so rapid now.

(A) allocating (B) allocative (C) allocated (D) allocation

ANS: C

NOTE: 空格要填「分配」的動詞，配合前面的had形成過去完成式。

(A) have been (B) will be (C) are (D) were

ANS: (A)

NOTE: decade (noun) 10年、tournament (noun) 錦標賽；「for + 一段時間」「現在完成式」的線索；動詞wait時常搭配「現在完成進行式」，表示一直在等待。

8.Miami Dolphins coach, Adam Gase, _____ a new policy last week that mandates players stand for the national anthem.

(A) implementing (B) has implemented (C) implements (D) implemented

ANS: (D)

NOTE: mandate (verb) 要求、implement (verb) 執行；主要子句的last week是「過去簡單式」的時間線索
