  41. A.of B.on C.by D.for

  答案:A

  42.A.stay B.last C.exist D.survive

  答案:B

  解析:本题考查动词的词义辨析。stay意为“逗留,停留”;last意为“持续原来的状态”;exist意为“存在”;survive意为“幸存”。根据句意应该是说橡胶经久耐用,故选B。

  43.A.by turns B.by return C.in turn D.in return

  答案:C

  解析:本题考查介词词组辨析。by turn意为“轮流,交替地”;by return意为“返回,反馈”;in turn意为“反过来”,常放在句子中间,表示转折;in return意为“作为回报”。根据上下文可知,树根和寒冷的天气不会使橡胶开裂,但成本要比水泥块高三倍,反过来,能减少因路面不平而引起的滑倒的投诉。

  44.A.for B.with C.to D.against

  答案:D

  解析:本题考查短语的词义辨析。make for意为“导致,有助于,朝着…前进”;make with意为“产生,提供”;没有make to的搭配,常见的搭配是make sb.do sth.;make complaints against是个固定搭配短语,意为“控告,对…进行投诉”。根据句意,和make前面的complaints不难判断选D。

  45.A.furnish B.offer C.give D.refer

  答案:B

  解析:本题考查动词的词义辨析。furnish意为“提供某种有特殊用途的东西”,常用短语为furnish sth.to sb./furnish sb.sth.;offer意为“给别人东西,让别人来选择要不要”;give有“直接给予”的意思;refer常搭配介词to,意为“提到”。根据句意可知,橡胶人行道提供了一种回收利用废弃轮胎的方法。

  46.A.thrown B.throwing C.threw D.throws

  47.A.doing B.done C.did D.do

  答案:D

  解析:本题考查语法结构。本句是个省略句,前文提到restrict,后文为了避免重复,使用动词do来代替restrict tree roots。由于句子是一般现在时,而且concrete squares是复数,所以选D。

  48.A.add B.added C.adding D.adds

  答案:C

  解析:本题考查语法结构。文章中的主语是rubber sidewalks,谓语has been引导着三个并列的结构相同的分句,前面的grind和后面的bake都用的-ing形式。因此选C项adding。

  49.A.available B.accessible C.advisable D.achievable

  答案:A

  解析:本题考查形容词的词义辨析。available意为“可得到的,可利用的”;atcces-sible意为“可靠近的,可到达的”;advisable意为“合适的,可实施的”;achievable意为“可完成的,可实现的”。根据句意,故选A。

  50.A.zone B.location C.position D.Neighborhood

  答案:D

  解析:本题考查名词的词义辨析。zone意为“有特色的地区、地带”;location意为“某物设置的地点、方向”;position多指物体相对于其他物体所处的位置或立场;neigh-borhood指邻居或街坊四邻。根据句意应该是说在一处居民住宅区,故选D。
