【解析】

1. C 很明顯他將贏得這場(chǎng)比賽。obvious 明顯的, 顯而易見的;likely 很可能的;possibile 可能的;clear 清楚的，清晰的。這里句子里說的不是一種可能性，而是他贏得比賽的跡象已經(jīng)很明顯了，所以選擇clear比較合適。

2. B 地球圍繞太陽轉(zhuǎn)。around周圍，四周的意思;選項(xiàng)中只有round意思與其相近，before在..之前;after在...之后;over在...之上

3. D 當(dāng)我不在的時(shí)候有人打來電話嗎?anyone表示人的時(shí)候和anybody同義。

4. D 花了很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間修補(bǔ)房子。mend修理, 修補(bǔ);repair修理, 修補(bǔ);build修建、塑造;destory 破壞、毀壞;design 設(shè)計(jì), 計(jì)劃

5. B 我不是很明白她在說什么。follow理解，明白;和understand同義;

6. A 我們?cè)僖矡o法容忍他的行為。tolerate 容忍、原諒;put up with 忍受;accept 是接受、認(rèn)可，同意;receive收到、接到。

7. D 大聲的噪音使人憤怒。irritating 使憤怒的;annoying 使憤怒的;hateful可恨的、討厭的;stimulating 刺激的;painful 疼痛的, 使痛苦的。

8. B eternal是永恒的, 沒完沒了的;long長(zhǎng)的、始終的;never-ending永不休止的、沒完沒了的;boring令人厭煩的;extensive 廣大的, 廣闊的。

9. A vague 含糊的,不清楚的;imprecise不嚴(yán)密的、不精確的;clear清楚，apparent明顯的，easy簡(jiǎn)單的。所以選A

10.C Lawful是law的形容詞，表示經(jīng)法律認(rèn)可的、合法的;legal 合法的，為正確答案。其它選項(xiàng)irresistible不可抵抗、不能壓制的;profitable 有利可圖的。

11.A 劃線詞motives的意思很單純，作名詞講是“動(dòng)機(jī)、目的”作形容詞是發(fā)動(dòng)的、運(yùn)動(dòng)的，但是職稱英語考試一般不會(huì)考到后者，所以只要記住第一個(gè)詞義足矣。這句話的意思很好理解“這些就是做這件事的動(dòng)機(jī)”相近詞就鎖定在A.B項(xiàng)，但是excuses更側(cè)重“理由、借口、托詞”的意思，A項(xiàng)reason除了有“原因、理由”的意思還有“動(dòng)機(jī)”之意。answers 答案，回答;replies 答復(fù)、報(bào)復(fù)。

12.C widen 是wide的動(dòng)詞，要記住很多的形容詞+en(n)就變成動(dòng)詞了，例如weak—weaken，worse-worsen，當(dāng)然也有些例外strong-strengthen,large—enlarge。所以這句話意思“這條河向西流時(shí)變得很寬了”extends“擴(kuò)充, 延伸, 伸展”;stretch“伸展, 伸長(zhǎng)”broaden“變寬, 擴(kuò)大, 加寬”注意這個(gè)詞的構(gòu)成原理和widen是一樣的.

13.C lure引誘的意思，既可作動(dòng)詞也可作名詞，這里接在of前面是名詞，error"錯(cuò)誤, 過失";puzzle"難題, 謎"也可作動(dòng)詞;attraction“吸引, 吸引力”符合題意，contradiction純粹是個(gè)迷惑詞“反駁, 矛盾”。

14.D immense“廣大的、無邊的”選項(xiàng)A、B、C都是很少、幾乎沒有的意思，所以可以全部排除。

15.B remedy 矯正, 修繕，maintain是保持的意思;preserve 保護(hù), 保持, 保存(側(cè)重食物的保存);protect保護(hù)的意思。只有B項(xiàng)improve含有修繕、改進(jìn)的意思。這里要注意其他三個(gè)詞的意思辨別。
