Answer 1

答案：
解析：
　　1．由于暴风雪，火车晚点了。 　　2．暴风雪造成的晚点让人着实烦恼。 　　Q1．B　句1中，due to用作状语，引导原因状语从句，也可以将其提到句首：Due to the snow storm the train was delayed．句2中due to引导的是定语，修饰the delay。显然，它的位置是不能挪到前面去的。 　　3．我喜欢去餐馆吃饭，但另一方面，我还得尽量地攒钱。 　　4．一方面我欣赏他的天赋，但另一方面，我不信任他的判断。 　　Q2．B　习语on the one hand… on the other(hand)…表达一个事物的两个方面，而且这两个方面常常是冲突的。这个结构也可以只保留on the other(hand)，就像句3。 　　5．我以前是个坐办公室的白领，每天工作开始的时候都会喝杯咖啡。 　　Q3．A　在句5中would意思是“过去常常会做某事”，表示过去常发生的习惯性动作。显然，A选项中的would也是这样的用法：我住在郊区的时候，常常会在晴朗的日子去钓鱼。B项中的would是will的过去式，表示过去将来时态。 　　6．是父亲造就了今天这个成功的我。 　　Q4．A　这是强调句型。若强调主语，从句中的谓语动词要与这个被强调的主语一致。 　　7．不想惹麻烦，他离开了。 　　Q5．ABCD　rather than可以接名词、代词、形容词、介词短语以及动词，还可以接名词性从句。
