高考訓(xùn)練營(yíng):每日高頻詞匯10道題(29)
1. She once again went through her composition carefully to _____ all spelling mistakes from it.

[答案]D. eliminate.
[注釋]eliminate(=get rid of, do away with)消除,排除,淘汰:

2. When the little child caught sight of the young woman _____ in white he started brawling immediately.
A. dressed B. wearing C. worn D. putting on
[答案]A. dressed.
[注釋]be dressed in 穿這.....衣服。Wear意為“穿著”是及物動(dòng)詞,語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)上與本題不符。Put on穿上,強(qiáng)調(diào)的動(dòng)作。
3. Some areas, _____ their severe weather conditions, are hardly populated.
A. due to B. but for C. in spite of relation to
[答案]A. due to.
[注釋]due to由于。有些語(yǔ)言專(zhuān)家認(rèn)為due to引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ),在句中只能作表語(yǔ),如:
1)His absence was due to the storm.
2)The delay was due to heavy traffic.
3)This accident was due to his carelessness.
但現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)里due to引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ)可以作狀語(yǔ)用,如:
1)He failed due to carelessness.
2)Due to heavy traffic, he was late for an hour or so.

Be relative to與.....有關(guān)的:
This is not relative to the accident.(這和這次事故無(wú)關(guān)。)
本題意指courses(課程)是否與needs(需要)掛得上鉤,而不是一般得有點(diǎn)關(guān)系,故應(yīng)選geared.

7. We suddenly saw the bus about to leave and had to run _____ to catch it.
