Keys and notes:
1. D in time of danger作“临危时，遇险时”解。
2. C learn…by heart“背诵，熟记”解
3. B 成千上万的说法是tens of thousands of。
4. B explain表示向某人解释某事有两种表达方式。（1）explain sth. to sb.（2）explain to sb. sth.一定要注意介词to的用法。
5. B common指常见的，usual常指习惯性的，此句的意思是这种鸟如此常见以致于到处都能见到。
6. D prevent表示阻止；care表示介意；defend表示保护、防卫；protect表示使不受侵犯、保护，也可指防御风雨、寒冷、疾病等。我们有时带墨镜是为了保护眼睛不受太阳光的侵害。
7. C ill为形容词，常作表语表示有病的，有时可作定语，表示不良的。而sick作形容词，既可用作定语，也可作表语，此时表示生病的。另外，sick作表语时，还可表示恶心的、想吐的，后面接of常表示厌烦的、讨厌的，因此C为最佳答案。此句的意思是打架事件发生之后一个星期，两名警察仍病得很重，且都厌倦了躺在床上。
8. B a great deal of修饰不可数名词的，a great deal相当于不可数名词。
9. C be made in…造于某地；be made from…由……制成（看不出原材料）
10. C “no doubt”说明后面是一个肯定信息，故用that引导一个同位语从句。

12. A go against意为“违背”。
13. D in one’s opinion中的opinion用单数。
14. A a large number of修饰可数名词，plenty of二者均可修饰。B项the number作“……数量”解；C项a lot后缺of，D项many a修饰单数名词，均有错。
15. C have no luck意为“运气不佳”。
16. D 该句主语是money，（collected…是过去分词短语作定语），故谓语选spend的被动语态形式，表示“钱花在……上”。
17. B doubt用于否定句，其后接that从句。
18. D keep up是“保持下去，不使低落”之意。
19. A词组protect from意为“保护……免受……”。

21. A本题考查的是普遍性的原理，用一般现在时。
22. A词组Play an important part意为“起重要作用”，everyday解释为“日常的”，every day意思是“每天”，不能作定语。
