答案:for 句意:——最近杰克不集中精力学习。——是的,这可能是他上次考试得分低的原因。account for...“解释,是……的原因”符合句意。
3.The realization of the Chinese dream won't affect dreams of other countries. ________ the contrary, it helps them realize their own dreams.

5.(2014·大纲改编)Exactly ________ the potato was introduced into Europe is uncertain, but it was probably around 1565.
答案:When 本题考查名词性从句的引导词。句意:马铃薯是在什么时候被引进到欧洲的不确定,但是可能是在1565年左右。分析结构可知,此处是主语从句的引导词。根据but并列句中的关键词 around 1565可以知道,此处表示“时间”,故要用when引导主语从句。
6.The professor thought that the idea the young engineer brought ________ was worth considering.
答案:up 句意:教授认为那位年轻的工程师提出的想法值得考虑。分析句子结构可知,“the young engineer ________”是定语从句,修饰先行词the idea,且根据句意可知,bring up“提出”符合句意。

答案:ahead 句意:——我们明天做什么?——尚不清楚会议是否会按计划举行。go ahead进行,符合句意。
8.(2014·浙江改编)“Every time you eat a sweet, drink green tea.” This is ________ my mother used to tell me.
答案:what 本题考查名词性从句的引导词。句意:“每次你吃甜东西,喝点绿茶。”这是过去妈妈经常对我说的话。分析结构可知,此处考查的是表语从句的引导词。从句缺少tell的一个宾语,用what引导。
9.There is much chance ________ Bill will recover from his injury in time for the race.
答案:that There is much chance that...为常用句型,意为“很有可能……”。that引导的从句说明chance的内容,等同于同位语从句。
10.I found Jane ________(seat) at the desk, ________(do) her homework carefully.
答案:seated;doing 句意:我发现简坐在桌旁认真地做作业。seat为及物动词,用法为be seated或seat oneself,所以Jane后可接seated或sitting作宾补;doing her homework carefully是现在分词短语作伴随状语。
