答案详解

1.[C]【解析】动词不定式。选C项中动词不定式to follow表示“将要……，接下来……”；A项应该换为in the following lecture。句意：在下面的讲座中，他将给我们讲述现代英语的用法。

2.[C]【解析】连词用法。in case相当于for fear that，意为“以免，害怕……”，后面从句用虚拟语气。句意：老师们小声说话，以免打扰学生。

3.[D]【解析】动词词义辨析。flash across one's mind，表示“在脑中一闪”；flush意为“冲洗，脸红”；flicker意为“摇曳”；flare意为“闪烁，闪耀”。句意：我让这个问题困扰了一个多小时，没有结果。突然一个解决方法闪现在我的脑海里。

4.[D]【解析】as关系代词的用法。在句中是关系代词，引导非限定性定语从句，其先行词是整个主句。as既可置于主句前，插入主句中，又可置于主句后。句意：作者在他的一些传记中提到，他生长在农村。

5.[C]【解析】动词词义辨析。bite意为“咬，吮”；sip意为“啜饮，一小口地喝”；touch意为“触摸”。根据题意只有C项正确。句意：莱妮建议我呷一小口白兰地，这样有助于我减缓紧张。
