参考答案
1.答案：D
to make matters worse是固定用法，在本题中充当插入语。
2.答案：C
本题考查冠词的用法。前一个空over the telephone表示“通过电话”;by letter表示“通过写信”，by表示方式后直接接一个名词。
3.答案：A
本题考查状语从句的用法。考生一上来不能为“，”所迷惑，立刻选择了D项which。这里where引导一个状语从句。
4.答案：C
本题是对副词的考查。关键是理解情景对话的含义。整道题的意思是：“你今天看上去气色不好。怎么了?”“我感冒了，但是不严重。”所以C项符合题意。
5.答案：B
本题考查形容词的次序排列。考生解题的关键是掌握所修饰的名词前必须紧接质地或性质的词，故排除C、D。few与后面的词关系更为密切，所以放在short前面。

参考答案
6.正确答案为B
因为collection (收藏品，收集物) 是可数名词，此处为单数，又不是特指，所以用不定冠词;books是名词复数表示种类，而非特指，所以不用冠词。又如：a fine collection of paintings精美的绘画收藏品。
7.正确答案为B
word (话、话语) 是可数名词，without saying a word意为“没说一句话”;虽然silence (沉默)是不可数名词，但此处是特指前面提到的那种沉默，所以用the。
8. 正确答案为A
因为school, college, university, hospital, prison, church, table, bed名词等指其用途时，不用冠词。leave college意为“大学毕业”。又因为表示职业或身份的单数名词前通常要用不定冠词，所以选A。
9. 正确答案为C
price前加定冠词表特指。句意为“如果你买10个以上，他们会从那个价钱中减掉20便士”。
10. 正确答案为B
因为division后有介词短语between…and…的限制，这是特指的，所以要用the。又因为concern作“所关切的事”皆是可数名词，所以前面要用冠词。
