A. in

B. for

【答案】B。考察介詞短語(yǔ)。“在接下來(lái)的兩周內(nèi)，陳先生在公司的主要角色是…合適的人選來(lái)接替邵先生在本月底離職的職位”。look for：尋找；Look in：順便看望；look over： 檢查；look from：從某處看。根據(jù)句意可知補(bǔ)充“尋找”更合適，故正確答案是選項(xiàng)B。

【答案】A。“經(jīng)過(guò)長(zhǎng)期艱苦的罷工，工廠的工人將從下周一…上班”。A選項(xiàng)starting on：開始；B選項(xiàng)afterwards：后來(lái)、然后；C選項(xiàng)instead：代替；D選項(xiàng)outside：外面的。根據(jù)句意可知應(yīng)該是“下周一開始上班”，故選擇starting on，正確答案是選項(xiàng)A。

3.The advertisements printed in this magazine do not (    ) imply endorsement by the management.

A. highly

B. barely

C. gradually

D. necessarily

【答案】D。觀察選項(xiàng)可知是選填副詞，選項(xiàng)之間只是詞意的差別。根據(jù)句意“印在這本雜志上的廣告不…受經(jīng)營(yíng)者認(rèn)可”，A選項(xiàng)highly：非常、高度地；B選項(xiàng)barely：僅僅、幾乎不；C選項(xiàng)gradually：逐步地、漸漸地；D選項(xiàng)necessarily：必然地、必定。根據(jù)句意可知填入“不一定”更合適，故正確答案是選項(xiàng)D。

【答案】B。on one’s own：獨(dú)立地，是固定搭配，所以空格處應(yīng)填入修飾名詞own的物主代詞。故正確答案是選項(xiàng)B。

5.The hard work put in during his younger years made him become (    ) sound in his later years.

A. finance

【答案】D。觀察題干可知空格處應(yīng)該填入副詞，修飾become的表語(yǔ)sound（殷實(shí)的），只有D項(xiàng)是副詞，故正確答案是選項(xiàng)D。
