    B

    universities are facing serious pension deficits

    C

    universities in the UK are predicting an average surplus of 1. 6% for the end of the financial year, so no need to worry for the moment

    D

    many universities have cut the number of research projects


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    题目问的是：我们可以从文中得出什么？倒数第13段提到“The report also noted that staffing costs, following the 13％three-year pay deal agreed in 2006, had risen at a faster rate than universities’ grants.”说明人事费增长13％，比大学津贴涨幅快，也就是说大学津贴涨幅少于13％。故选A。

    单选题
    Emily: ______ ?　　Scott: Yes, it certainly is　　Emily: About time too –after all that rain we had.　　Scott: Yes, I know. That’s why we went away this year.

    B

    Is it suitable for you to go?

    C

    Is it a sunny day today?

    D

    Isn’t this weather fantastic?


    正确答案： D
    解析：
    根据Emily的第二句话，可知对话内容与天气有关，故排除A和B选项；根据Scott的第一次回答“是，当然是了”可推测出问话为反义疑问句，而不是询问今天的天气状况如何，故选择D项。

    No sooner we started out when

    B

    Hardly had we started out that

    C

    Scarcely had we started out that

    D

    Rarely had we started out when


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    句意：很少有我们一出发就下雨的时候。rarely很少地，当否定词或表示否定意义的词置于句首时，句子要部分倒装，即仅把助动词、情态动词或谓语动词的一部分置于主语之前。同时，hardly ... when ...；scarcely ... when ...也表示“一……就……”。故D正确。
