　　答案：

　　11. B。adopt 采取，采用;acquire 获得，取得;accumulate 积累，积攒;assemble 聚集，集合，装配。获得某种技能用acquire the skill表达，故答案为B。

　　12. A。起诉 accuse 常跟介词of;charge 起诉，指控常跟介词for搭配;scold 斥责，责骂，常跟介词for;curse诅咒，咒骂。从句意和横先后的介词of可以判断出此题选A。

　　13. C。本题考查固定搭配，find fault with sb. 找某人的茬儿。故答案为C。

　　14. A。insight 洞察力;imagination 想象力;fancy 想像力，幻想;outlook 观点，前景。provide insight into sth. 看透……，深入剖析……。故答案为A。

　　15. D。expose揭露，使暴露;exhaust耗尽，使衰竭;exhibit陈列，展览;exploit利用，开拓，开采，开发。故答案为D。

　　16. A。set back推迟，延缓;set off 出发，解脱;set out出发;set aside留出，拨出，拒绝。雨水推迟了收成，故选set back。

　　17. D。regulate 管理，调整，控制;halt 停止，中止;interrupt 打扰，打断;combat战斗，打斗。故答案为D。

　　18. A。固定搭配，have access to可以到达，可以使用。其它几个词均无此搭配。故答案为A。

　　19. B。ensure 保证，确保;guarantee 保证，担保;assume 假定，设想，承担;confirm 确定，批准。ensure和guarantee 都有"保证"的意思，前者指"使某行为或某件事的结果得以保证，即确保某事发生"，后者更强调"对人的行为及履行义务、义务等承担责任的保证;对事物、商品等无质量;性能等方面的欺诈行为做出保证"。故答案为B。

　　20. A。skim 略

　　读，略过;observe 观察，遵守;overlook 俯瞰，远眺，忽略;glance 扫视，匆匆一看。没有时间逐字阅读，只能是略读了，故答案为A。

　　21. D。当时间状语时by + 将来时间点时，主句时态用将来完成时。

　　22. A。本题考查定语从句，句中定语从句没有先行词，当先行词选择all时，引导词只能使用that。all that = what，故答案为A。

　　23. D。in that 由于、因为;so long as 只要;in case 如果，万一;for fear that 以免，唯恐。分析句意可知选D。

　　24. D。要做出这个题目，需要判断lose和Anna之间的关系，是主谓还是动宾。分析可知应为被迷失，所以选用过去分词。be lost of the world 对周围的事毫无感觉。

　　25. B。此题目考察非谓语动词，逗号前是一个完整的句子，主谓宾齐全，因此逗号后面不能再出现谓语，排除A项there be的非谓形式可以是there being，也可以是there to be，前者表示 已经有，后者表示将有。从句子时态可以看出，应选择being。

　　26. D。本题考核连词的用法。本句主句为 it，代替后面的主语从句。根据句意，空白处应填入一个能引导主语从句作为实义主语的连词，因此正确答案为D。全句意为：你和你室友的要求完全相同，这是怎么回事?How is/was it that从句?是一个固定句型，表示……是怎么回事?

　　27. A。本题考查特殊句式。根据句子含义，用到了让步状语从句，as引导让步状语从句时，要用部分倒装，将表语或状语提前。

　　28. C。be relevant to 形容词短语，表示与……有关。故答案为C。

　　29. B。even though 尽管，表转折;as though 似乎;even as 当，恰恰在…的时候;now that 既然，由于。分析句意可知，正确答案为as though。

　　30. A。lest的意思是唯恐，以免，免得。它是连词。所连接的状语从句里常用should或原形动词，lest should 表示"以免;生怕;唯恐"。
