2. D根据句意和动词后的介词 to ,排除选项 A 和 C,而 arrange 表示"安排,整理",意思与作 者要表达的"说服人们改变他们的生活习惯"不符,所以 persuade 为正确答案。

3. A 联系上下文,可知这里提出的是一个解决问题的方法,approach 表示"方法,途径",符合句意,为正确答案。manner 表示"方式,风俗",custom 表示"制定的,风俗",style 表示"风

格,样式",均不符合句意。

4. B 根据句意,这里是说要"增加停车收费",increase 表示"增加",符合句意,为正确答案。 enlarge 表示"扩大,增大",grow 表示"发展",develop 表示"发展,开发,生长",均不符合句意。

5. C 根据句意,对那些违章的人的要加强收款,bringin 表示"作为……的收益",为正确答案。 carry down 表示"搬下,结账,把……传下来",put off 表示"推迟,脱掉",take away 表示"带 走,取走",均不符合句意。

9. A fixed to ...表示"固定在……上",文中是说"固定在汽车的挡风玻璃上",所以选 A。其他三项都不符合句意。

10. C 根据句意,要求表达另一种处理这个问题的方法,deal with problem 表示"处理问题", 为正确答案。.

11. A 联系上下文,作者后边提到"城市中心",再根据句意,可得出前面说"郊区",只有

outskirt 是正确答案。

12. D final 表示"最后的",根据句子可知这里表示旅程的最后一段,为正确答案。late 表示"晚的,最近的",不符合句意; end 不可用在名词前作修饰;complete 表示"完整的",也不符合句意。

13. B"the most important thing"为惯用语,表示"最重要的事是……",根据句意,作者要表达

14. C pass on 表"传递,继续",throw away 表示"扔掉,丢弃",leave out 表示"遗漏,省去",give up 表示"放弃"。根据句意,舍弃汽车的舒适,give up 最为恰当,所以选 C。
