B. The

C.A

D /

【答案】B

【解析】她去了一所欧洲的大学学习艺术.这所大学真了不起。根据语境a European university(一所欧洲的大学)可知，后句的university(大学)是第一句提到的 a European university，是特指这所大学，故应填The，所以答案为B。

53. Had Paul received six more votes in the last election, he ________ our chairman now.

A. must have been

B. would have been

C. were

D. would be

【答案】D

【解析】这道题目是一个混合虚拟语气的句子。条件句省略了if，把助词had提前到主语前面，表示对过去情况的假设，而主句中now表明了对现在情况的假设，所以应选would(should, could, might)+动词原形这种表达形式。四个选项中只有(D)是正确表达形式，故为正确答案。

54. We must find out ________ Karl is coming, so we can book a room for him.

A. when

B. how

C. where

D. why

【答案】A

【解析】考查宾语从语的引导词。句意：我们必须查明。根据后面的内容可知，“卡尔要来，我们可以为他订一个房间”，可知，只有知道他什么时来了，才能给他订房间，故选A项。

55. ________ his father works!

A. How careful

B. How carefully

C. What

D. What careful

【答案】B

【解析】考查感叹句。How后紧跟形容词副词，what后跟形容词加名词。并且副词修饰实意动词work，所以选B。

56. The ________ on his face suggested that he was extremely angry.

A. impression

B. sight

C. appearance

D. expression

57.I guess we’ve already talked about this before but I’ll ask you again just ________.

A.by nature

C.in case

D.by chance

【答案】C

【解析】本题考查介词短语。分析四个选项的意思by nature 天生地;in return作为回报，作为交换;in case 万一，以防;by chance偶然地。根据句意我想我之前已经跟你谈论过这件事，但是以防万一，我再问你一次。故选C。

58. ________ the English examination I would have gone to the concert last Sunday.

A. In spite of

B. But for

C. Because of

D. As for

【答案】B

【解析】假设的情况有时不是用一个条件句表示，而是隐含在一个由介词如but for要不是、but that要不是、without如果没有, 由连词but要不是、副词otherwise否则的话、等表示的上下文中。本句主句表示对过去情况的假设，但事实上由于英语考试而没有去成，即若不是因为英语考试，我本可以去听音乐会，所以应选But for为正确答案。故选 B。

59. She doesn’t talk much, ________?

A. is he

B. doesn’t she

C. did she

D. does she

【答案】D

【解析】本题考查反意疑问句。在反意疑问句中，前肯定，后否定;前否定，后肯定。由于前半句中是否定形式doesn’t，故后面的附加问句部分为肯定形式，前面的句子中出现了does，所以后面的反意疑问句还应该用does，所以应该是does;故选D。

60. Just as I got to the school gate, I realized I ________ my book in the cafe.

A. have left

B. had left

C. would leave

D. was leaving

【答案】B

【解析】句子的谓语动词realized 用的是过去式，说明“意识到”的动作是过去。而把书落在咖啡馆应该在此动作之前，即”过去的过去”，应该用过去完成时。A项是现在完成时;C项是过去将来时;D项是过去进行时，用排除法做此题，排除A、C和D项，故选B。
