[3答案]
21.D 该题考查冠词的用法。out of habit＝by habit是固定短语，意为“出于习惯，潜意识地”。for pleasure意为“为享乐，为消遣”，也是固定短语。
22.B wooden作定语，意为“用木头(块)制成的”，wood作定语，意为“就木头本身制成的”。从该题题干可看出，在木头上雕刻各种花样，应为wood carving。
23.C intend sb for sth意为“打算让某人做某事”。
24.C
25.D 该题考查分词短语作状语的用法。“把年青人比作太阳”，应为词组compare A to B，又句子的主语Mao Ze-dong与compare一词存在主谓关系，故要用Comparing。
26.B 该题考查独立结构。its owner与seated之间存在逻辑上的被动关系，而不存在主语与实际谓语动词之间的关系。A选项的干扰性很大。若选A项，且在seated之前加was，则为非限制性定语从句。
27.B 该题考查时态的用法。从题干for some time可知，选项部分时态应为完成时，与前部分对应，应为现在完成进行时。
28.C When it comes to...是一固定句型，意为“当谈到……时”。
29.B result in意为“导致，造成”，符合该题的语境。take over有“接管”之意，hold on为“继续，持续，坚持,不挂断”之意。
30.D demand可接to do sth，但不能接sb to do sth。该处为被动，故为to be told。
31.C 题意强调在所有的座位当中寻找，结果一个座位也没有找到，故只能用none，而不能选neither。
32.C 该题考查定语从句在强调句中混合运用时连词的辨析。
第一空所选that为强调句之连词，第二空所选that为定语从句之关系代词。
33.D course在此意为“(一)道(菜)”，“(一)盘(菜)”。
34.D 该题考查短语的用法。throw sth over...意为“把东西从…地方扔出去”。over有“越过”之意。
35.B 该题考查句子结构。学生易犯思维定势的错误而选C，其实who finished是定语从句，该处缺谓语动词。
