44.Bvery修饰名词时表示强调，不表示数量。Far表示数量大大超过，花费了更多的钱。

45.B解析：句意理解题。seeingtheelephantsplayfootball和(seeing)amonkeyplaytheviolin并列作enjoy的宾语，应选or，表示“或……”。

46.B

55.A11．答案为A。她帮助那个老人上车。比较四个选项，只有into“到……里”，完整表达“进入车内”的含义。on“在……上”；in“在……里”；to“朝……”。

56.C解析：表示二者的“都”或“任何一位”用neither或either。排除选项B和D。谓语动词已经否定，选项C是正确的。句意为：“你看见杰克和约翰了吗?他们两个我都没看见。”

57.D解析：此种语境，用完成时态最贴切。

58.B
