Ⅰ.单项填空
1.(2015·苏南五校高三联考)We don't think the experiment is ________ failure. At least we have gained ________ experience for future success.
A.the;a B.a;/
C.a;an D.the;the
【解析】 此处failure 表示“失败的事”,因此其前面用不定冠词a,为抽象名词具体化的用法;experience 表示“经验”时为不可数名词,此处表示泛指意义,所以第二空不用冠词。
【答案】 B
2.Mrs Black is ________ a neighbor to us.She also takes good care of our children when we are away.
A.no more than B.rather than
C.less than D.more than
【解析】 句意:Black夫人不仅仅是我们的邻居。在我们不在家时,她经常帮我们照顾我们的孩子。no more than 不多于;rather than 而不是;less than 少于;more than+n.不仅仅是。
【答案】 D
