nBh+UT}
2. 【答案】A. valueless =)a24PDG
c4Ebre-Oa
【解析】本题测试词义搭配.valueless 无价值的。从上下文来看,支票不是真正的钱,因为支票本身是无价值的。invaluable 无法估价的,非常宝贵的。 1Cr&6 't

8. 【答案】B. stock \"l
z,bT
fdl.3~.C
【解析】本题测试词义搭配. keep a large stock of 备有大量…..的现货供应,故stock指商店供销售的现货。例如:1) This store has a large stock of shirts. (这商店有大量衬衫出售。) 2) The green grocery keeps a large stock of vegetables and fruits. (这家蔬菜水果店有大量的蔬菜水果供应。) a large store of sth. 指“ 大量储藏某物”,根据题意,此次是指商店。商店不是仓库,商店的现货是供出售的,故此处选store 不合题意。a number of 接可数名词复数,只指有若干某物,无供出售的含义。可见,如填number 虽不算错,但不是最佳答案。至于an amount of 后接单数形式的不可数名词,所以无论在逻辑意思上或语法结构上均不和题意。 Dqy`7?Kn
