【参考答案】

1.【答案】A

【解析】：考查定语从句引导词。句意：来Dearfield急诊室的病人中，大约有40%只是轻伤。由come和have两个动词推断，此句中含有一个从句。根据基本的语法常识可以判断，patients是整个句子的主语，have是谓语，injuries是宾语，因此"______ come to the Dearfield Emergency Room"是从句。又因为有先行词patients，所以这是一个定语从句。当先行词是人，并且引导词在从句中做主语时，应该选择who；当先行词是人，引导词在从句中做宾语时，应该选whom；当先行词是人或物，引导词在从句中表示"谁的"的意思时，选whose。在本题中，引导词在从句中做主语，所以选A。

2.【答案】B

【解析】：考查词义辨析。句意：这台机器看起来好像是一台又大又笨重的老式打字机。A. forceful 强有力的；B. clumsy 笨拙的，笨重的；C. intense 剧烈的，强烈的；D. tricky 狡猾的，机警的。句子中缺少的形容词是用来形容打字机的，ACD选项不能形容打字机，所以排除。clumsy与large和old-fashioned基调相吻合，故选B。

3.【答案】B

【解析】：考查限定词用法和主谓一致。句意：我确定还有协商的空间。首先，根据some修饰可数名词复数和不可数名词可知，detail应为复数形式，故排除A。place一般指比较具体的"地方，位置，地点"，不能指折扣这种比较抽象的空间，所以排除C。再根据题干从句中谓语动词is可知，空格处应填入名词单数或不可数名词，故排除D。综上，B正确。

4.【答案】C

【解析】：考查虚拟语气和倒装。句意：电线的直径越小，其电阻越大。本句为省略了if的虚拟语气，省略后需要倒装。本句可还原为：If the wire were of smaller diameter, its resistance would be increased. if虚拟语气中，be动词只能用were不能用was。故本题答案为C。

5.【答案】A

【解析】：考查形容词辨析。句意：这场持续了三个小时的演讲太乏味，以至于听众忍不住打起哈欠。tedious乏味的；bored无聊的（主语为人）；clumsy笨拙的；tired"疲倦的；厌倦的（主语为人）"。故答案为A。

6.【答案】D

【解析】：考查短语辨析。句意：根据《无线电通讯名录》的记载，目前有16376家获许可的无线电台正在广播。A. Due to 由于；B. Taken by 被……吸引；C. Required by 被……要求；D. According to 根据。只有D选项符合题意，故选D。

7.【答案】B

【解析】：考查动词时态。句意：科利博士拥有人类学的博士学位，并且在去年十月份他出了一本关于尼罗河三角洲的书。由句中的last October可以判断时态是过去式，所以选B。

8.【答案】B

【解析】：考查词性辨析。此处空格中的单词与and 后的chief executive 并列，故只能选B。foundation 虽为名词，但意为“建立”，不符合语境，故可排除。

9.【答案】C

【解析】：考查副词词义辨析。句意：周三晚上9:30到10:00之间电子邮件服务器会被暂时卸下，这样我们就能更新软件了。A. permanently 永久地；B. immediately 立刻，马上；C. temporarily 暂时地；D. successfully 成功地。根据题干中的时间段between 9:30 and 10:00 p.m可以推断，服务器是被暂时卸下而不是永久卸下，所以A选项不正确，B和D选项与题意不符，故选C。

10.【答案】B

【解析】：考查固定搭配。句意：不幸的是，纽约办公室在上三个季度都没能达到销售目标。本题考查fail与动词的搭配，fail to do 是固定用法，表示失败或未做成某事，故正确答案为B。
