[答案]A

【精析】"Do you think you will get a pay rise next year?"的意思是：“你认为明年你会加工资吗?”选项A意为“我希望这样”，符合题意。选项B“恐怕是这样的”，选项C“我深信不会这样”，选项D“我希望不是这样”都不符合表达习惯及语境。

Nina: I______ she ______ until tomorrow.

A. think; isn't coming

B. thought; wasn't coming

C. didn't think; was coming

D. didn't think; is coming

[答案]B

【精析】"Your beloved teacher has arrived here, Nina."的意思是：“你喜欢的老师已经到这里了，尼娜。”选项B意为“我原以为她明天才到”，此时必须用过去式"thought"，而不是"think"。

Nora: How long has this bookshop been in business?

Michel: ______1982.

A. After

B. In

C. From

D. Since

[答案]D

【精析】"How long has this bookshop been in business?"意思是：“这个书店开了多久?”只有since+某时间点可以做完成时态的时间状语，故选项D符合题意。选项A(在……之后)，选项B(在……里面)以及选项C(从哪里来)都与题意不符。
