答案与解析

1. C该题考查数词加名词构成的合成词的用法。three-hour中间需加连字符左前置定语，

journey可数需加不定冠词a。题意：用了很长时间才到那里。那是三个小时的旅程。

2. D 该题表示倍数的用法。表示倍数的句型：①倍数+比较级+than…②倍数+ 同级比较

（as/so+形容词/副词的原级（名词）+as…③倍数+the size(length, weight…) of…。

据此应选B。句意：据报道美国所消耗的能源是欧洲所消耗总和的两倍。

3.D 考查倍数的表达方式，在表达倍数时，倍数都应位于原级或比较级之前，因此D正确。

4.D 该题考查数词的用法。数词one-third要放在名词前面，而名词time后面有定语从句it

took me，故为特指，应当在他前面加定冠词the。因此，答案为D。题意：他做这件事用了我用时的三分之一。
