21. I have no dreams ____ to have a happy life.
A. rather than B. more than C. other than D. less than
other than 的意思是除了而rather than的意思是而不是
22. —Ms Lin looks rather a kind lady. —But in fact she is cold and hard on us. You ____believe it!
A. shouldn’t B. wouldn’t C. mustn’t D.needn’t
本题主要考查情态动词的意义和用法。选项A表示建议；选项B表示推测；选项C表示禁止；选项D表示需求。根据句子的意思，本题正确答案为B。
23. I’d try even if I may fail ___ __ sit there worrying in time of trouble.
A. rather than B. other than C. more than D. less than
A 考查than短语。rather than ：而不是。
24. He ran as fast as he could _____ to catch the bus.
A. hope B. to hope C. hoping D. hoped
此题的最佳答案不是B，而是C，其中的现在分词短语hoping to catch the bus用做伴随状语，即一边跑一边希望能赶上汽车。但是，如果选B，将to hope to catch the bus视为目的状语行不行呢？不行。因为“他拼命地跑”目的是“为了赶上公共汽车”，而不是“为了希望赶上公共汽车”，换句话说，将“希望”作为“目的”不妥。因为同样的原因，下面一题也应选hoping：He studied as hard as he could _____ to enter a good college.
A. hope B. to hope C. hoping D. hoped
25. He had a lot of friends, none of _____ could lend him any money.
A. whom B. them C. which D. who
此题选A，none of whom could ... 为非限制性定语从句
对比：He had a lot of friends, but none of _____ could lend him any money.
A. whom B. them C. which D. who
此题选B，由于句中有并列连词 but，整个句子为并列句，因此选them
He wrote a lot of novels, none of _____ translated into a foreign language.
A. them B. which C . it D. what
同学们看了上面一题的分析后，也许会毫不犹豫地认为此题应选 B，理由是none前没有并列连词 and 或 but，但这次又错了。此题的最佳选项应是A，注意此句与上面一句有着本质的不同，即此句的 translated 不是谓语，而是一个非谓语动词（过去分词），所以逗号后面其实不是一个完整的句子，而是一个独立结构。假若在 translated 前加一个助动词 was，则此题应选(which)，构成一个非限制性定语从句。所以做这类题要特别小心，千万不要想当然，更不要受思维定势的影响。
26. I met several people there, two of _____were foreigners.
A. whom B. them C. who D. which
此题选A，two of whom were foreigners 为非限制性定语从句
对比：I met several people there, two of _____ being foreigners.
A. whom B. them C. who D. which
题选B，two of them being foreigners 不是一个完整的句子，因为句子没有谓语，而只有非谓语动词 being
27. She may have missed the train, in _____ case she won't arrive for another hour.
A. whose B. that C. which D. what
此题容易误选 A，因为不少同学认为在定语从句中能用做定语的关系代词的只有 whose。其实除 whose 可用做定语外，which 也可用做定语，只是含义上有差别：在此情况下，whose 的意思相当于one's，而 which 的意思则相当于 that 或 this。比较： (1) This is Mary, whose ［= and her］ father we met last week.
(2) Call again at 11, by which time ［= and by that time］ the meeting should be over.
注：若27题中的逗号前如果有连词 and，则可选 B(that)。
28. According to the rules, students must not _____ their books during examinations.
A. read B. watch C. notice D. look at
此题容易误选A，因为许多同学牢牢地记住了：看书看报用read，看电视用watch，看电影用see，看比赛用watch，看黑板用look at，等等。以上说法并没有错，但问题是，以上句子有其特殊性。一般说来，汉语的“看书”至少有两层意思，一是指阅读性地看书，即看书＝读书，此时通常用动词read；另一种看书则不是指阅读性地看书，而只是大概地翻一翻或看一看，比如看看书的封面、定价、内容提要等，或者回答问题时看看书的某些章节或字句以及考试时偷看书本等等，此时通常都不宜用动词read，而应根据情况选用其他动词(如look at)。又如：Let me have a look at the book.让我看看或翻翻这本书。
Please answer my questions without looking at your books.请不看书回答我的问题。
29. _____ with a good education can apply for the job.
A. Who B. Whoever C. Anyone D. Who ever
此题题选C，介词短语with a good education为修饰anyone的定语
30. _____ seen smoking here will be fined. A. Who B. Whoever C. Anyone D. Who ever
题选C，过去分词短语seen smoking here为修饰anyone的定语(可视为anyone who is seen smoking here之省略)
