1.【答案】A。这题考查副词：第一空填well修饰worth，意为：“很值得”第二空填fast，修饰be asleep，意为：“很快睡着了”。
2.【答案】D。“so+adj. / adv.”位于句首时，其后用部分倒装;
3.【答案】B。否定词位于句首，部分倒装。
4.【答案】D。你搬到你的新家了吗?还没有，那里正在被装修。Flat和decorate之间的关系是被动，句子强调进行时，所以选择D。
5.【答案】D。语境中的时间信息：by next summer到明年夏天，提示该题应为将来时，故排除B、C。根据句意：怀特夫人自1985年成为教师，到明年夏天就将教书法家20年了。因此，只有将来完成进行时才能表示这个将来某时前一直进行的动作。故选择D。
6.【答案】D。On her next birthday表示时间是将来，结婚20年是一个从过去开始持续到未来的状态，使用将来完成时。
7.【答案】C。本题中的固定搭配more…than…与其说…还不如说….;句义：—难道你不认为Carl足够勇敢去进行翼装飞行?—在我看来，与其说他勇敢，还不如说他疯了。他本不应该冒着失去生命的危险去这样做的。故C正确。
8.【答案】A。受全球经济危机的影响，最近股票价格急剧下跌。A.锋利地，敏锐地，急剧地;B.绝对地;C狭窄地，勉强地;D.全体地，无一例外地。根据题干中“global financial crisis”可知，此处指股票下跌。
9.【答案】C。it is/has been+一段时间+since+一般过去时。
10.【答案】B。表示从过去发生持续到现在，现在仍在进行而且未来还可能延续下去的动作，用现在完成进行时。
11.【答案】C。固定搭配fail to do sth未能做某事;不定式的完成式to have done表示在谓语动作之前就完成的动作。句意：因为紧张也很焦虑，Jill没有在面试中给人留下好的印象。根据句义可知本句没有比赛已经完成的动作，就使用不定式的一般式。故C正确。
