() 1. He is a person who likes to complain ______ his work ______ others.
A.to; on
B.to; about
C.about; to
D.about; on

C

首先分析“complain”的常见搭配，“complain about sth.”表示“抱怨某事”，“complain to sb.”表示“向某人抱怨”。本题中“his work”是抱怨的对象，即抱怨的事情，所以用“complain about”；“others”是抱怨的对象，即向他人抱怨，所以用“complain to”。A选项“to; on”，“on”不符合“complain”的搭配；B选项“to; about”顺序错误；D选项“about; on”中“on”不符合搭配。C选项“about; to”符合“complain about sth. to sb.”的结构。

( ) 2. you do, don't miss the play, for it's so hard for me to get the tickets.
A.Whatever
B.However
C.Whenever
D.Whether

A

首先分析句子结构和语境。句子表达的是“____你做什么，都不要错过这场演出，因为对我来说弄到票太难了”。这里需要一个词来引导让步状语从句，并在从句中作do的宾语。接下来逐一分析选项：A选项“Whatever”表示“无论什么”，可以引导让步状语从句并在从句中作宾语，符合语境；B选项“However”表示“无论怎样”，引导让步状语从句时在从句中作状语，不符合语境；C选项“Whenever”表示“无论何时”，引导让步状语从句时在从句中作时间状语，不符合语境；D选项“Whether”表示“是否”，通常引导宾语从句或主语从句，不引导让步状语从句，不符合语境。因此，正确答案是A。

() 3. I have no time this afternoon. Who will ______ this card ______ me?
A.post; to
B.post; for
C.past; to
D.past; for

B

第一空需动词，"past"为介词/副词，排除C、D；"post sth for sb"表示“为某人寄某物”，"post to"后接地点，此处“为我寄卡片”用"for"，选B。

() 4. —Didn't the robot have a rest?
—______, because it never gets tired.

A.No, it did
B.Yes, it did
C.No, it didn't
D.Yes, it didn't

C

该题考查对一般过去时疑问句的否定回答。问句“Didn't the robot have a rest?”是过去时的否定疑问句，意思是“机器人没有休息吗？”。答句后半部分“because it never gets tired.”（因为它从不疲倦）表明机器人确实没有休息，所以答句应为否定回答。对于“Didn't...?”的否定回答是“No, 主语 + didn't”。A选项“No, it did”和D选项“Yes, it didn't”前后矛盾；B选项“Yes, it did”是肯定回答，不符合语境；C选项“No, it didn't”符合否定回答的规范。
