[2]答案
21.b 该题考查交际用语。get on well表“相处很好”或“进展很好”，常与介词with搭配，故排除c；how do you do是第一次见面时的问候语；虽然how are you?的回答也可用fine，但题干中强调在学校的学习现状，故选b。
22.b 题干意思为“mary对george的评价不高，但没有哪一种评价要比george对mary的评价更坏”。选项处应为george对mary的评价，为his (opinion)。
23.a stay up表“不睡觉”。
24.c 从by短语可知该处选项部分应为被动结构，所写(科学)小说将被发表，故为不定式的被动式。
25.a average此处表“一般水平”，即“既不好，也不坏，没有什么特别引人入胜之处”。usual表“通常”，normal表“正常，没有出问题”，common表“共同，共有”，这三个词都不符合此处的语境。
26.c help oneself表“自用，自取”，即无需别人服侍。
27.c 该题考查定语从句之中的时态，从题意“十年之前没有人能够想像他们将会有这么大的市场份额”可知该处时态应为过去将来时，c项中的were to have表将来时，故答案为c。
28.c 该题考查冠词的用法。in the position of表“处于某一位置”，parent之后未加“-s”，故用a。
29.d 该题考查反意疑问句中尾句部分的助动词用法，must be结构中的中心词应为be，且he must be in the lab相当于i think he is in the lab，故其尾句部分为isn't he。
30.d 平衡被打破，会产生许多预料不到的影响，“导致，产生”为result in。lie n意为“在于”；call in意为“召，请进来”；take in有“吸收”之意。
31.b unless＝if...not。
32.d 由it's not been decided yet可知。
33.d 该题考查时态。表语从句中的主句用进行时态，从句由when引导表“突然发生意料不到的变化”。
34.c so...that引导的结果状语从句。
35.a 该题考查强调句中被强调部分之间的连接词用法辨析。
由句意“是他的演唱方式而不是他的歌声给我印象深刻”可知a为正确选项；as well as，together with两项虽然结构上也对，但不符合题意not exactly so。
