解题小贴士    

1. 【B】    

根据题干，此题肯定是要填入一个动词，选项sign意为“签名（于）”；assign意为“分配，委派”；resign意为“辞去，辞职”；design意为“设计”。那么结合上下文，考虑到题干中的被动态结构，正确答案为B，译文为：你被委派了保持最新记录的任务。    

2. 【C】    

分析题干，此空需填入一个动词才合理，所以，bride意为“新娘”，和Bible意为“圣经”就都被排除了。剩下的任务就是区别bribe和crib的词义，bribe意为“贿赂”，而crib意为“抄袭”，此单词为超纲单词，如不认识，可不用考虑。所以正确答案为C，译文为：直到我给了玛丽一杯冰淇淋作为贿赂，她才愿意做家庭作业。    

3. 【A】    

这一题的难点单词在于coarse，它看上去很像一个名字，但是不要被它迷惑了，其实它是一个形容词，意为“粗糙的”；选项A. course，同学们都知道它是“过程，经过，课程”的意思，但是不要忽略了它另外一个意思，那就是“一道菜”；curse意为“咒骂”，名词和动词同形，cruise意为“巡游”。正确答案为A，题目译文为：侍者上了第一道菜：韭菜和土豆汤。    

4. 【C】    

这一题的几个单词属于记忆难点。conscious“意为有意识的，有知觉的”；consciousness意为“意识，知觉”；conscience意为“良心，道德”；conscienceless意为“没良心的”。正确答案为C，题目译文为：他有着很强的社会公德，经常积极参加各种形式的反贫穷的运动。    

5. 【B】    

这一题要注意D选项delicate，它看上去像个动词，其实是个形容词，意为“精致的，精巧的”；dedicate是和delicate形似的词，意为“奉献，致力于”；design意为“设计，计划”。所以正确答案为B，题目译文为：我花费自己的一些时间和精力为贫穷的基督徒募集资金。
