參考答案：

1. A. 分析：借助搭配"……地已經結束了……"直接判斷A(最終地)

2.B.分析：考察定語從句，從句需要主語，且該主語指代Captain James Cook，所以B合適。

3 D. 分析：考察否定副詞。借助搭配特點—空格后直接出現了名詞，所以D是答案(no否定名詞)

4. B. 分析：借助句子中的相關詞語museum(博物館)……display(陳列)直接猜測答案為B(展覽會)

5. D. 分析：借助上文時態(tài)—一般將來時，及與空格處的搭配結構—'"考古發(fā)現：澳大利亞博物館的寶藏"…包括……'直接判斷D為答案該題考點：上下文時態(tài)和定語從句。

6. A.分析：借助句子中出現的詞語：explorers (探險家)…Great South Land，判斷A(發(fā)現)是答案。

7. B.分析：該題考察插入語結構(插入語結構往往是對前面的名詞/代詞進行描述，或補充說明，該結構往往以定語(定語從句)，狀語(狀語從句)，或同位語的語法結構形式出現)

8. C.分析：空格前出現典型時間詞1824，空格后是句子，所以直接判斷when 可能是答案。 考察：定語從句結構。

12.A. 分析：直接借助搭配結構特點(v. + to 引導的不定式結構)判斷A是答案。

13.D.分析：借助上文句意和該句句意(不是所有的cook的尸體都在1779年被……海里)判斷D(埋葬)是答案。

14.A.分析：借助被選項的關系：suggestion和 proposal是近義詞，且用法接近，所以相互排除掉，比較A和D，判斷A((來自倫敦的)聲明)正確。
