[重要点评]
1．答案选A。none是“没有任何人和物”，是回答how many 问句的；no one“没有人”
是回答who 问句的；nothing“没有任何东西”，是回答what问句的。
2．答案选B。“in/on/to + the+方位词+of+地点”结构中，in表示“在……境内”，on表示“接壤”，to表示“在……境外”。
3．答案选B。wish有“希望，想要”的意思。可接不定式作宾语或接复合宾语，而hope则不接复合宾语。句中you to come 是复合宾语。
4．答案选D。put on 是“穿上衣服”。wear是“穿着……衣服”，have 常与on 搭配，它们都以衣服名称作宾语；dress是“给……穿衣服”，常用“某人”作宾语。
5．答案选C。have sth done 词组是“让某事由别人做”的意思。have 用法较多，在这里用作使役动词。
6．答案选B。in the end 是“最后”的意思，可直接作状语；“by the end +of +时间/地点”表示“在……时间/地点的末端”。本题to the end与walk对应，表示“走到……尽头”。
7．答案选C。根据答语never，选择how often,表示动作或状态发生的频率；how soon 表示“多久以后”，一般用于对“in+一段时间”结构提问；How long 是“多久”，一般用for或 since引导的时间状语来回答；how much 表示“多少”，不用于回答时间。
8．答案选A。so 用于修饰形容词或副词，such用于修饰名词（词组）。本题中把beautiful从a beautiful song 词组中提前，用so修饰。
9．答案选C。 本题考查四个选项的用法区别。hear form=get a letter from,“收到某人来信”；hear of 和hear about是“听说”的意义，hear 是“听见”，如果用作“听说”，后面一般跟宾语从句。
10．答案选B。本题虽然没有否定词，但too…to 结构含有否定意义，仍然把该句视为否定句，nobody是否定的，不能再用。everybody 和somebody常用于肯定句中，所以只有anybody适合。
