　　1.The size of the audience, ( ) we had expected, was well over one thousand.

　　A. that

　　B. which

　　C. as

　　D. whom

　　【答案】C。观察题干可知空缺处所在的句子是非限制性定语从句，选项A排除。先行词是the size“规模”是物，选项BD排除。选项C中的as有引导从句限制先行词的功能，所以答案选C。

　　2.A joke which was funny to American people might seem ( ) to Chinese.

　　A. fence

　　B. defense

　　C. intense

　　D. offense

　　【答案】D。“一个笑话对于西方人搞笑，不一定对中国人就可能有点冒犯”。A项fence栅栏围墙。B项defense指的是防卫防护。C项指的是intense强烈的，紧张的。D项offense犯罪过错侵犯。所以答案选D。

　　3.In terms of viewpoints and attitudes, authors may not state ( ) that they are neutral, negative, positive or objective.

　　A. empirically

　　B. extravagantly

　　C. exceptionally

　　D. explicitly

　　【答案】D。“谈到态度，作者一般不能…提出自己中立还是消极或是积极”。A项：以经验为主地;B项：挥霍无度地;C项：异常特殊地;D项：明确地。根据句意可知补充“明确地提出”更合适，所以答案选D。
