makeeveryoneintheroomburstoutlaughing.A.soasto

B.suchastoC.sothat

D.suchthat参考答案：B考查形容词。因为suchthat，sothat后只能接从句。而这题在be动词后应是表语such这里做表语asto加上后面的部分是修饰such的，表示程度。句意：他如此幽默，全屋的人都被他逗乐了。故选B。【名师点睛】做本题时，要抓住横线后动词make是动词原型，而非句子，故可以排除C、D两项；soasto“为的是；是为了；以便”的意思，与其后的动词原形一起作目的状语，用来强调目的，故也可以排除。suchasto的用法再举一例：Hismannerwassuchastooffendnearlyeveryonehemet．他的举止几乎冒犯了所有他认识的人。12.

B.off

C.into D.to

参考答案：C。解析：本题考查动词与介词的搭配。“sinkintosth”意思是“渗入，陷入，沉入；投入……”等意思，“sinkintoachair”意思是“（一屁股）坐到椅子上”。其它搭配均不恰当。sinkinto…是一个非常有用的搭配，可与很多名词连用，表示多种意思，如sinkintoone’smind（教训等）铭记在某人心中，sinkintothesea沉入海中，sinkintoadeepsleep沉睡。
