【答案与解析】

1. 选B，由于是两个房间，即是两者比较，故宜用比较级，因此排除C和D;又由于两句之间没有连词，故不宜选A。注：若在空格前加上and 一词，则要选A。

2. 选B。此题关键是要理解 Not at all 的意思。根据上文语境，Not at all 为 I am not satisfied at all with his answer 之省略，即表示“我对他的回答一点也不满意”，既然如此，他的回答当然会是 It couldn’t have been worse(不可能更糟)。

3. 选 C，句意为“我的算术比琼差，但我的历史比她强”。注意句中的转折连词 but 及其后的 better。

4. 选A，we couldn’t have picked a worst day 的实际意思是 it is the worst day we’ve picked。

5. 选A，a better 为 a better one 之省略。另外，a better one(一个更好的)是与其前文“我知道这不是一个很适合的词”相呼应的。

6. 选A。根据空格后的than，排除B和D;根据语境，排除C。

7. 选D。more 后不能比较级，故排除A;quite 除用于quite better外，不用于修饰比较，故排除B;very 不用修饰比较级，故排除C。

8. 选A。若选B或C均不合事实;若选D，不合语法，因为few 后要接可数名词的复数形式。

9. 选B。从句意看，空格处应填比较级bigger，因此排除A和C。选项B与D的区别是，一个用了不定冠词，一个用了定冠词，两者的区别是，不定冠词表泛指，定冠词表特指。

10. 选D。由于是将有考试与没有考试作比较，所以应用比较级，不用最高级，由此排除A和C。选项B的错误在于用了more happier这样的双重比较级(即more后不能再加比较级)。

11. 选B。修饰as…as的副词应置于该结构之前。
