【答案】1-5 DCBAB
【解析】
1. 句意：——对不起我刚才正在走神呢。你刚才说了什么?——你上课的时候总是走神。
考查动词时态。第一个空用过去进行时，意思是在对方说话的时候，我正在走神，说明是进行时，其结构是be doing的形式，因为说话是在刚才，用过去式，主语是my mind，be动词用was；第二个空是一般过去式，就是问对方，刚才说了什么，助动词用did, 其结构是疑问词+did+主语+动词原形？故选D。
2. 本题考查连词的使用和区别。本题的含义为马丁和他的朋友们不能吃完点购的所有食物，因此他们把剩余的带走。So表示所以的含义，表示结果引导结果状语从句，与本题的含义相符；而for表示目的为了或表示原因因为的含义；or表示结果否则的含义，as表示作为或当……时候的含义，后三者与本题的含义不符，故本题选C。
3.句意：我和他都没有比较过这台电脑的价格，所以我们都决定在购买之前多了解一些情况。
考查连词辨析和主谓一致。not only…but also…不但……而且……；both…and…两者都；either…or…或者……或者……；neither... nor...既不……也不……。neither...nor...连接两个主语时，谓语动词遵循就近原则，第一处排除AD；分析前后语意，没有比较价格，所以二人都决定要多了解一下，用both…and…两者都。故选B。
4. 句意：这些天，很多人都在努力工作，以获得足够的钱来维持他们的生活。
考查enough的位置以及副词辨析。hard努力；hardly几乎不。根据“working…”可知，第一个空表示“努力工作”，排除C和D选项。enough修饰副词时，应放在副词的后面。money是名词，enough修饰名词时，是放在名词的前面，故选A。
5. 句意：——好吧。我接受。但我告诉你，这是我最后一次承担这种工作了。——来吧，伙计！别那么严肃。考查动词短语。take off起飞，脱下；take on承担，接受，强调承担；take out拿出；take up开始从事，强调开始；分析句子结构可知，后面跟的宾语是工作，结合选项可知，能和工作搭配的是承担工作或开始从事工作；根据“...it is the last time...”可知，以前做过这种工作，而不是才开始从事这种工作。故选B。

Dragons are not real animals, but they look like a combination(结合体) of many animals, such as snakes, fish, and deer. They have two horns and a long mustache(胡子). With fantastic power, they fly in the sky or swim in the sea. They can make rain, too. The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and good luck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.
We are proud to call ourselves the “descendants(传人) of the dragons”. In China, “excellent” people are often called “dragons”. A number of Chinese sayings and idioms talk about dragons, for example, “Hoping one's child will become a dragon”, which means hoping one's child will be successful.
It is said that people born in the Year of the Dragon have certain characters. They are creative, confident, brave and quick­tempered. There are some famous “dragons” who have done excellent things, like the great man Deng Xiaoping who was born on August 22nd in 1904, the famous businessman Li Jiacheng and the movie star Zhao Wei. They are all successful.
There are also some traditional festivals in China, such as the Dragon Head­Raising Day and the Dragon Boat Festival. We have different kinds of activities to celebrate them. These two festivals come every year, but the year of the Dragon comes every twelve years.
