　　答案：A

　　8．The book ________ forty maps，________ three of Great Britain.

　　A．contains；includes

　　B．is containing；including

　　C．includes；contains

　　D．contains；including

　　解析：contain意為“包含；容納”，側(cè)重內(nèi)容；include意為“包括”，側(cè)重組成部分；including為介詞“包括”。contain和include都不能用于進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)。書(shū)中含有40幅地圖，側(cè)重書(shū)的內(nèi)容，所以第一個(gè)空contains；第二個(gè)空應(yīng)用介詞including，后面接賓語(yǔ)，表示“包括”。

　　—________.

　　A．Do it please

　　B．Go ahead

　　C．It doesn’t matter

　　D．I don’t mind

　　答案：D

　　A．a(chǎn)ccessible

　　B．a(chǎn)dorable

　　C．a(chǎn)daptable

　　D．a(chǎn)cceptable

　　解析：句意：“在那個(gè)年齡父母把孩子丟下沒(méi)人照顧是社會(huì)上無(wú)法接受的。”本題考查詞義辨析，accessible“易達(dá)到的，易接近的”；adorable“值得崇拜的”；adaptable“可改編的，能適應(yīng)的”；acceptable“可接受的”，根據(jù)題意答案是D。
