答案解析
1.[a]【解析】考查固定搭配。 at the cost of “以……为代价”； at the disposal of“由……处置”; at the mercy of “任……摆布”；expenditure不与at搭配，expenditure of 表示“……的消费，支出”。据题意可知，应选a。
2.[b]【解析】动词词义辨析。heal 一般指伤口的愈合； cure指生病后的治愈； treat 指治疗，没有康复之意； recover 表示恢复健康时要与from搭配，故选b。
3.[d]【解析】名词词义辨析。abolition“废除”；restriction“限制，约束”； descent“下降，降落，堕落”； decline“下降，减少”。根据以上分析，应选d。
4.[d]【解析】副词词义辨析。restrictively “限制性地”； radically“根本地，彻底地”；inclusively“包含地，在内地”； exclusively“专门地，排他地”。根据句中的提示词， almost， fully可知他只关注掌握职业的技术和技巧，故选d。
5.[c]【解析】名词词义辨析。ring“圆圈，环状物”；terrace“阳台，露台”；arena“竞技场，舞台”；ground“场地，地面”。这里把人生比喻成一个竞技场，故选c。
