答案:

SectionⅠUseofEnglish

1、C[解析]

本题考查介词短语辨析和上下文语义。空格所在句中的notonly...butalso...并列结构表示“不仅……而且……”，其中notonly结构又由两个部分构成，一个是“他父母、朋友的参与”，后面的those是指示代词，指的是“女方父母、朋友的参与”，两部分之间也应是并列关系，四个选项中能引导并列关系的只有选项C中aswellas。

选项A中bywayof意为“通过……；经由……”，通常指做事的方式、方法；选项B中onbehalfof指“代表某人做某事”；选项D中withregardto意为“关于”，多用于句首。男方的亲友一般不会“通过”或“代表”女方的亲友，也不会专门针对他们做某事，代入空格后语义均不通顺，故皆可排除。2、D[解析]

本题考查动词短语辨析和上下文语义。分析句子结构可知，空格处需要填入一个动词短语，和can一起作句子的谓语。本句意为“年轻男子可以自己______合适的伴侣并让父母______商讨婚事，或者男方的父母也可能替他选好一个对象，在此过程中儿子几乎没有话语权。”由此可知前半句是说年轻男子可以有一定的自主权，自己“选定”合适的结婚对象。故正确答案是选项D中decideon。

选项A中adaptto“适应”、选项B中providefor“为……做准备；供养”和选项C中competewith“与……竞争”后接alikelyspouse(一个合适的伴侣)语义均不通顺，故皆可排除。3、C[解析]

本题考查动词辨析和上下文语义。根据句意“年轻男子可以自己选定合适的伴侣并让父母______商讨婚事”。四个选项中，最适合填入空格处的是表示“安排”的动词。故正确答案为选项C中arrange。

与商讨婚事搭配的动词一般就是“安排”。既然男子已经选定了合适的伴侣，本段主要讲的又是结婚的风俗文化，那么选项A中close“关闭”、选项B中renew“更新”和选项D中postpone“推迟”，后面若跟“商讨婚事”，则语义上无法顺畅衔接，因此三个选项皆可排除。4、B[解析]

本题考查副词短语辨析和上下文语义。空格位于句首，主要看前后两句之间的语义关系。前面一句说“男方的父母也可能替他选好一个对象，在此过程中儿子几乎没有话语权”，逗号后面的内容是“……女方可以拒绝父母为她选择的配偶”，两句之间没有明显的衔接关系，但因为前文一直在说男方主动提亲，这里说的是女方的表态，四个选项中只有选项B中Intheory“理论上”放进句中能说得通。

空格的前一句描述男方在选择配偶时可能存在的情况，后句描述女方可能的回应，前后之间不存在总结和举例的关系，故选项A中Aboveall和选项D中Forexample可排除。选项C中不能作插入语，也不能入选。5、C[解析]

本题考查连词辨析和逻辑关系。根据下文“______aspousehasbeenselected,eachfamilyinvestigatestheother...”可知，只有结婚对象选择好以后，父母才会去调查对方的家庭情况。空格需要填入的词用来引导时间状语，所以正确答案是选项C中After。

选项A中Although“尽管”，通常引导让步状语从句；选项B中Lest“以免，唯恐”，通常引导目的状语从句；选项D中Unless“除非，否则”，通常引导条件状语从句。从逻辑关系上看，这三项均不合适。6、A[解析]
