1. A. slip B. puzzle C. loss D. failure

[答案]C

【精析】本題考查固定搭配。短語at a loss for words表示“茫然而語塞”。

2. A. what B. how C. when D. where

[答案]A

【精析】從后面的It‘s her brain可知，空格處應(yīng)填的詞能夠引導(dǎo)的是名詞性短語，選項中可以引導(dǎo)名詞性短語或從句的只有what.而how引導(dǎo)方式狀語從句;when引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句;where引導(dǎo)地點狀語從句。

3. A. hide B. set C. fix D. lie

[答案]D

【精析】本題考查固定搭配。選項中的 lie有“存在，在于”的意思，在表達(dá)“原因在于……”的時候經(jīng)常與in連用，構(gòu)成固定搭配。

4. A. have B. share C. divide D. store

5. A. in B. at C. with D. for

[答案]A

【精析】本題考查介詞的用法。選項中in多指“在某點上，就某一點來說”;at多指“在某一程度上”;with一般表示伴隨的狀態(tài);for表原因。這里顯然指的是“就男女大腦的大小、結(jié)構(gòu)和觀察力來說絕對不同”，

[答案] B

【精析】本題考查固定搭配。選項中in fact：實際上;in contrast：相反;in addition：此外;in consequence：因而，由于……的緣故。這里是把男女進(jìn)行比較，而且前后文所述情況相反，故選B項。

10. A. important B. mysterious C. special D. clear
