参考答案及解析:
16.答案:D。
动词suggest后的宾语从句应用虚拟式(should)come。
17.答案:D。
A man’s vigor lessens:人的精力衰退。life,effort,temper(脾气,怒气)与lessen不搭配。
18.答案:D。
was cut down more than one third:减少了三分之一以上。不能选C,drop off是“下降,减少”,不及物。return to作“返回到”。reach for为“伸出手去取”。
19.答案:A。
took advantage of the fine weather:趁着天气好。profit为“利益;利润”。interest为“兴趣;利益”。take charge of中“掌管,负责”。
20.答案:B。
what he has done是“他所做的事”的意思。what引出一宾语从句,又是do的宾语。
