●答案與解析●

1. D。“想去”與“太忙”是轉折關系，用 but。

2. D。出發和到達是兩個先后發生的動作，用 and 連接作并列謂語。用A表示同時發生，不對；選項 C 指“到達”在“出發”之前發生，不可能；B 表示目的，不合情理。

3. D。while 用以表示對比或相反的情況，意為“而、卻”。

4. C。or 連接兩個一般疑問句，表示選擇，意為“還是”。

5. C。but 用在 Excuse me 或 I’m sorry 等后面，只起緩和語氣的作用，通常不必譯出。

6. C。or 表選擇，意為“或者”。

7. C。while(而、卻)表示轉折。句意為：令他們吃驚的是，一個孩子居然能解決這個難題，而他們自己卻不能。

8. D。but 表示轉折。句意為：我的名字叫羅勃特，但我的大多數朋友都簡稱我為鮑勃。

9. C。此題依然是考查“祈使句+and/then/or+陳述句”這一句型，只是祈使句部分是用一個名詞短語來表示的。

10. D。…was / were about to do sth…when… 是個常用句型，表示某人正要做某事，就在這時(突然)發生另外一件事。句意為：他正要告訴我這個秘密，這時，有人拍了拍他的肩膀。

11. D。cost quite a lot 和 save us money 在意義上有轉折關系，用 but。句意是“改變這個城市的面貌要花很多錢，但從長遠的觀點看這些變化可以為我們省錢。”in the long run 是“從長遠看、終究”之意。

12. D。“想去”與“出城去而不能參加宴會”是轉折關系，用 but。

13. A。when表示在某動作發生的過程中，突然發生另外一動作，通常譯為“這時(突然)”。
