答案与解析:
1.d
尽管教授本人很守时，但对学生听课迟到已经很习惯了。本题测试固定词组搭配。本题主语为“be used to+名词或动名词”结构，表 示“很习惯于……”。故d项正确。students’放在being前作逻辑主语。
2.a 这个疯子被关进墙上装上衬垫的病房以免伤了他自己。本题测试“lest”用法。用lest连接的句子谓语部分用should加原形动词，should可省略，故a正确。
3.d
如果自来水像某些人想象的那么危险，那么我们中更多的人将得病。比较级的修饰词用法。a lot修饰比较级时应置前，故选d。
4.b
汽车中途毫无缘由地抛锚了。本题测试动词短语辨析。四个词组的意思分别为：a.broke off折断，突然停止讲；b.broke down抛锚，坏了；c.broke up拆散，驱散(人群)；d.broke out(瘟疫，疾病，战争等)爆发。
5.b
这些新来者发现，要在这个新国家完全适应这种气候以永久安家是不可能的。本题测试动词短语的习惯搭配。“adapt eneself to”构成固定词组，表示“ 使某人适应(新的环境，气候，国土等)”，符合句意。
6.a
简从来不敢想象有机会被很快送往国外。本题测试名词性短语作介词宾语。因句中“dream of”的“of”为介词，所以 “there is a chance”应使用动名词结构，故a正确。
7.d
单亲家庭的孩子经常承担一些义务，而这些义务原本由他的父亲或母亲 履行的。本题测试动词短语辨异。四个选项的意思分别为：a.take off“拿去，取消，脱(衣，帽等)，(飞机等)起飞，离开”；b.take after“(面貌，性格)像，模仿”；c.take in“接受，领会，理解，欺骗”；d.take on“呈现，雇佣，承担”。
8.c
我倒希望你暂时先别就此事发表意见。本题测试“would rather”的用法。句中的“would rather”要求从句中使用过去式，故c正确。
9.a
考虑到所有问题，原来的旅游将不得不取消。本题测试分词的独立结构。因为句中空格后没有宾语，consider为及物动词，可先排除c，d两项。b项为动词原形，只能用在虚拟句中。a项为过去分词，构成独立结构，正确。
10.d
在帮助我们发现和纠正错误的过程中，批评与自我批评是非常必要的。本题测试复合介词。空格后为主谓结构的句子，且成分齐全，由各选择项观之，应为介词带宾语从句结构，连词为that,由此判定d项正确。由that引导的介词宾语只能in,but,except, besides等少数介词连用。
