【答案解析】
30.【答案】A。解析:考查让步状语从句。句意:尽管没有什么安排,许多病人还是坚持住院的时候戴手表。even though“即使,尽管”,引导让步状语从句;as if“好像”,后接从句要用虚拟语气;for“因为”,引导原因状语从句;since作“自从”讲时,引导时间状语从句;作“因为”讲时,引导原因状语从句。根据语境,even though最符合,故答案选A。
31.【答案】C。解析:考查定语从句。句意:正如我们所预料的那样,观众的人数已远超1000人。根据题干可知是考查非限定性定语从句。that不能引导非限定性定语从句,排除;who/whom所代替的先行词是表示人的名词或代词,题干是指观众的人数,指物,排除;as作关系代词,可引导非限定性定语从句,作“正如”解。故答案选C。
32.【答案】B。解析:考查动词时态语态。句意:自从3小时前爆炸发生以来,受灾地区似乎没有得到多少帮助。此处根据since即可判断用完成时态,且help与offer之间是动宾关系,需用被动形式。故答案选B。
