参考答案
1. 【翻译】他把70%的业余时间花在阅读小说或杂志上。
[考点]固定用法
【精析】B as many as 和as few as 均修饰可数名词，而as much as 和as little as 均修饰不可数名词。由句中“70% of his spare time”可知，此处修饰的是不可数名词，且强调付出的时间多，所以应选B。
2. 【翻译】兄弟不一定是朋友，但朋友会一直待你如兄弟。
[考点]情态动词
【精析】C must:必须，想必，表示义务或猜测;should:应该，应当，表示义务或责任;may:可能，也许，表示可能性;would:将，将要，表示将来或意愿。根据句意，选C。
3. 【翻译】四是一打的三分之一。
[考点]词义辨析(数词)
【精析】D one-fifth:五分之一;one quarter:四分之一;one half:二分之一;one?third:三分之一。dozen 意为“一打，十二个”，所以四应是它的三分之一。故选D。
4. 【翻译】目前还不清楚是否有一天机器人的视力将和人类的一样好。
[考点]固定用法
【精析】B It is (not) known…为常用句式，意为“目前还不知道”，其中it 为形式主语，后面的从句才是真正的主语。故选B。
5. 【翻译】今天的电视报道上出现了银行将收取更高利息的新闻。
[考点]名词性从句
【精析】D 分析句子结构可知，此处为that 引导的同位语从句，作前面news 的同位语，解释其内容，that在从句中只起连接作用，无词义，但不能省略。故选D。
6. 【精析】C 句意：一想到母亲的病，他就觉得很不舒服。本题为固定搭配题。at the thought of意为“一想到……”。介词at与某些表示动作意义的名词连用可以表达“一……就”之意，如at the mention of“一提到”;at the sight of“一看到”;at the idea of“一想起”;at the news of“一闻讯”等。at the risk of“冒……的风险”;at the cost of“以……为代价”;at the point of“几乎要;用……逼着”。所以根据句意和词义，答案为C。
7. 【精析】C 句意：他将整个人生献给帮助残疾人的事业。本题考查动词devote的用法。词组devote… to…(献身于，致力于)中to为介词，后面接名词或者动名词。所以选项C为正确答案。
8. 【精析】C 句意：为赶上班里的其他同学我费了很大的劲。四个选项中come up against意为“遇到，遭到(困难、反对等)”;make up for意为“补偿，弥补”;keep up with表示“赶上，向……看齐;与……保持联系”;live up to意为“不愧为，不辜负”。故答案为C。
9. 【精析】D 句意：真理是经过验证的，因此任何事都不能想当然。本题考查动词短语的意思。四个选项中选项A意为“牢记在心”;选项B意为“考虑”;选项C意为“忍受”;选项D意为“想当然”。故答案为D。
10. 【精析】D 句意：所有赞成这项提议的请举手好吗?本题考查四个短语辨析。in relation to意为“和……相比”;in contrast to意为“与……形式对比，对照”;in excess of意为“超过”;in favor of意为“支持，赞成”。根据句意，答案为D。
