22.The boy could earn a little money by (deliver) ______ newspapers.
正确答案:delivering
解析:所填之词跟在介词by的后面,因此只能用动名词或名词形式。

23.We had a road accident last weekend, but we were (luck)______ to escape injury.

24.The old man told us that most of the buildings there (damage)______ in the earthquake.

26.He demanded that we (take) ______ up the matter at the meeting.
正确答案:(should)take
解析:本题测试的是虚拟语气的用法。
在英语中,order,suggest,propose 等动词后所跟的宾语从句,其谓语动词需用“(should)=+动词原形”的虚拟语气结构。
27.Last-minute studying is not so ______ (effect) as working hard from day to day.
正确答案:effective
解析:本题考查词形的转换。

)C选项pay your telephone bill automatically是have your telephone bill paid automatically的同义转述。
由此可知选项C正确。
33.The payment with an AT&T BusinessDirect account can be made online with______.
A.a passport
B.a credit card
C.a driving license
D.a traveller’s check
正确答案:B
解析:细节题。
由题干The payment…can be made online with…定位于第一段第二句“You can make payments online with a bank account or use one of the following credit cards…”(您可以通过银行账户或下列任意一款信用卡在线支付……)由此可知选项B(一张信用卡)为正确答案。
A选项a passport(护照),C选项a driving license(驾照),D选项a traveler’s check(旅行支票)在原文中均未提及,因此不选。
34.If you have several registered accounts for payment, the first link that you should click is______.

)可以推断出C选项select the payment method first(首先选择支付方式)是正确选项。
A选项register your online account number(注册在线账号),B选项open several registered accounts(开启几个注册账户),D选项apply for a new credit card(申请一张新信用卡)在原文中均未提及,因而被排除。
36.The passage is mainly about______.
A.how to pay phone bills by AT&T BusinessDirect
B.how to open an AT&T BusinessDirect account
C.how to make use of online bank services
D.how to start a small online business
正确答案:C
解析:主旨题。
文章开头举例介绍了在线支付的便捷,之后介绍了通过银行账户和信用卡在线支付的步骤,最后介绍了在线支付的时间。
因此C(如何使用在线银行服务)为正确选项。
选项A(如何通过AT&T直接买卖账户支付电话账单)是片面的,因而不选;选项B(如何开启AT&T直接买卖账户)和选项D(如何开始小规模在线业务)在文章中没有提及,因而不选。

It’s a nice, comfortable hotel, near the city centre. It’s faster to travel by train, but it’s very expensive so we shall go by bus. The bus takes eleven hours but it’s a luxury one with a toilet and video on board. The cost of the trip, including travel, hotel, all meals and entry tickets, is £270. We think this is a good price. If you want to join us on the Scotland trip, please go to see Lawrence in the Reception Office. Hurry! Don’t leave it too late!
