Atoo many Btoo much Cmuch too Dfar too解析：句意：“今天晚上能和我一块看电影吗？”“我乐意去，但是我要做这么多功课。”考查“have much work to do”结构，too作为副词修饰much，故答案是B。答案：B2I didnt go to the party yesterday because my car broke down.You_mine.I wasnt using it.Aought to borrow Bwould have borrowedChad better borrow Dcould have borrowed解析：句意：“我昨天没去参加聚会，因为我的车坏了。”“你可以借我的，我没有用车。”这是一种虚拟用法，“could have done”本可而没有，故答案是D。答案：D3My God，Im getting late

Ddescription解析：event意为“事件”；story意为“故事、传说”；adventure意为“冒险”；description意为“描述”。根据全文可知，关于雪人这件事是一个故事或传说。答案：B2A.centuries Btoo long Csome time Dmany years解析：从下文中的“Climbers in the 1920s”可知，关于雪人的故事已有许多年(many years)，不可能是其他选项。答案：D3A.heard from Bcared for Cknew of Dread about解析：know of意为“听说”，其他选项不符合文章意思。答案：C4A.even Bhardly Ccertainly Dprobably解析：even在此用来加强语气，表示甚至有人抓到过雪人。答案：A5A.as Bthough Cwhen Duntil解析：though引导让步状语从句，表示尽管目前还没有证据证明这一问题。答案：B6A.developed Bchanged Coccurred Dcontinued解析：根据文章意思，雪人的故事应当是还在继续流传。答案：D7A.entirely Bnaturally Cclearly Dsimply解析：simply在此处作“仅仅、简单的”讲，此句意为“这不只是猴子或熊的脚印”。答案：D8.A.found Bdeclared Cfelt Ddoubted解析：根据前文中believed一词我们可知，Eric Shipton没有什么证据，只能是感觉到(feel)。答案：C9A.exist Bescape Cdisappear Dreturn解析：本题考查动词词义。exist意为“存在”；escape意为“逃脱”；return意为“归还，回来”。根据上下文很容易确定答案。答案：A10A.clearer Bmore Cpossible Drare解析：从文中的意思来看，后来人们只是发现“更多的(more)脚印。”答案：B11A.huge Brecent Cordinary Dfrightening解析：由“nothing more than”来暗示“脚印”也不过是普通动物的行迹而已。答案：C12A.strange Blarge Cdeep Drough解析：结合上下文的意思，雪地里的足迹经过融化再冻会变“大”(large)。答案：B13A.In the end BTherefore CAfter all DHowever解析：however此处表示转折，因为下文写的是一名俄罗斯科学家所持的不同观点。答案：D14A.imagined Breal Cspecial Dfamiliar解析：后文讲到一名俄罗斯科学家认为雪人是与史前人类相联系，由此可见这位科学家认为雪人是“真的”(real)。答案：B15A.so Bbesides Cagain Dinstead解析：上文提到的没有证据证明这种情况又出现了，故用again。答案：C16A.rightly Bactually Cnormally Dparticularly解析：actually此处指“事实上”，这位俄罗斯科学家的观点仍然没有得到事实证明。答案：B17A.lightly Bjokingly Cseriously Dproperly解析：联系上下文可知，大部分人都不相信雪人的故事了，只是少数人“认真”(seriously)对待雪人的传说，take sth.seriously意为“认真对待某事”。答案：C18A.succeed in Binsist on Cdepend on Djoin in解析：本题考查动词词组的意思。succeed in doing sth.意为“成功做某事”，符合句意。答案：A19A.decision Bsituation Csubject Dproblem解析：根据文意，应为面临的“难题”(problem)。答案：D20A.zoo Bmountain Cmuseum Dlaboratory解析：从文章的意思看，雪人如果是“人”就应当住旅馆；如果是“动物”，就应该进“动物园”(zoo)。答案：A111
