9.答案：B

解析：试题分析:句意:--不要开这么快!当我们穿过隧道的时候我们必须慢下来。四个选项均为穿过的意思,都是介词。past是从旁边路过;through是从中间的空间穿过;across是从表面穿过;over是从上空穿过。隧道是一个闭合的空间,所以要用through。故选B。

10.答案：B

解析：考查"特殊疑问词+动词不定式"的结构。句意：—吴老师已经推荐了许多本书。你已经决定先看哪一本了吗？—是的，《小王子》。上句的"manybooks"提示用which和动词不定式连用，意为"读哪一本"；which作动词read的宾语。故选B。

14.答案：C

解析：考查非谓语动词辨析。taketimetodosth花费时间做某事，是固定短语，为不定式短语作目的状语。

15.答案：C

5.答案：D
