　　Answer to Question 1

　　In English it is idiomatic usage to credit someone with having done something. Hence, only choice B, the best answer, is idiomatic. The verb credited would have to be changed to regarded for choices A or D to be idiomatic, to believed for choice C to be idiomatic, and to given credit for choice E to be idiomatic.

　　Answer to Question 2

　　Choice D, the best answer, uses the preposition than to compare two clearly specified and grammatically parallel terms, the cars the manufacturers hope to develop and those at present on the road. In A, the phrase more gasoline-efficient ... than presently on the road does not identify the second term of the comparison. In B, the misuse of modifying phrases produces an ambiguous and awkward statement: even more gasoline-efficient cars could refer either to more cars that are efficient or to cars that are more efficient. Choices B, C, and E all use research for [verb] where the idiom requires research to [verb]. In addition, C awkwardly separates even from more, and C and E again fail to indicate the second term of the comparison.

　　Answer to Question 3

　　Choices A, B, and C use have ... saw where have ... seen is required. Choices A, B, and E awkwardly separate the relative clause beginning whose arms and legs ... from monkeys, the noun it modifies. Choices A and E also confusingly use the present tense hang and the present perfect have hung, respectively; neither verb conveys clearly that, at the time the monkeys were spotted sleeping, their arms and legs were hanging in the manner described. Choice D, the best answer, not only forms a correct and clear sentence by supplying the present perfect verb have ... seen, but also solves the problem of the whose ... clause by using the appropriately placed adverbial phrase with arms and legs hanging... to modify sleeping.#p#分页标题#e#

　　Answer to Question 4

　　Choice E, the best answer, states that although the canoe could transport cargo of considerable weight, it was light: a canoe . . . which could carry . . . yet was . . . light.... Here, the conjunction yet is appropriately and correctly used to link two verb phrases. Choices A and B do not use yet with a verb parallel to could carry and thus fail to express this contrast. Furthermore, both place adjectival constructions after baggage, illogically stating that the eight hundred pounds of baggage, rather than the canoe, was light. Choice C supplies yet but ungrammatically uses the participle being where was is required. Similarly, D omits the necessary verb after and; and here again, the use of and rather than yet fails to express the contrast.

　　Answer to Question 5

　　Choice B, the best answer, correctly uses the construction between x and y to describe the conflict between two opposing groups. Choices A and C each use the ungrammatical between x with y. Choices D and E incorrectly use the preposition among in place of between: among is used to describe the relationship of more than two elements, as in "the tension among residents"; between is generally used to describe the relationship of two entities. Choice E also repeats the with error.
