30. I hope you don’t mind me asking, _______ where did you buy those shoes? (2004全國卷III)

A. so                                                     B. and

C. yet                                                    D. but

【答案】D。

【考點】考查并列連詞的用法。

【解析】當用于I’m sorry, Excuse me, I hope you don’t mind…等表達后，客氣地提出詢問或請求時，英語習慣上用but來引出句子。又如：I’m awfully sorry, but we’ve forgotten to reserve you a table. 實在抱歉，我們忘記為您預定餐桌了。Excuse me, but I have an urgent matter to attend to. 對不起，我有急事需要處理。

31. Reading is an experience quite different from watching TV; there are pictures _______ in your mind instead of before your eyes.

A. to form                                             B. form

C. forming                                           D. having formed

【答案】C。

【考點】考查非謂語動詞的用法。

【解析】因為form作不及物動詞，意為“出現、產生”之意，pictures與form是主動關系，用現在分詞作定語。又如：thunder clouds forming in the distance遠處出現的雷雨云。

32. —I would never come to this restaurant again. The food is terrible!

—_______. (2004全國卷III)

A. Nor am I                                          B. Neither would I

C. Same with me                                D. So do I

【答案】B。

【考點】考查交際口語的用法。

【解析】表示甲不做某事，乙也同樣也不做某事，英語用“neither / nor +特殊詞+主語”，“特殊詞”用與前句中的情態動詞、助動詞或be相同，或根據前句的時態，用do, does, did。因前句中有would，后句應重復would，所以選B。

C. twice much as                               D. twice as much

【答案】D。

【考點】考查倍數的表示法。

【解析】根據energy后的as可知，此題是考查“倍數+as+形容詞原級(+名詞)as”結構，即答案選D。句意為：據報道，美國使用的能源是整個歐洲的兩倍。又如：Peter’s jacket looked just the same as Jack’s, but it cost twice as much as his. 彼得的外套看起來和杰克的一樣，但是卻比他的貴了兩倍。
