詳解：
35. C。it’s a matter of…為英語慣用表達，其意為“是一個……問題”，又如：Of course this must have priority—it’s a matter of life and death. 當然這一點必須優(yōu)先考慮——這是成敗的關鍵。
36. D。be of the same mind為習語，意為“意見一致”，如：We’re all of the same mind—opposed to the proposal. 我們想法一樣，都反對這項提議。
37. B。living expenses意為“生活開支”“生活開銷”。
38. D。指在一周七天中進行選擇，故用choice。
39. 本題意為：為了拯救一些即將被遺忘的人類語言，我校學生舉行了一場“拯救我們的________”的討論。其中的隱含信息為To save some of the human languages，據此可判斷引號內的內容為Save Our Voices。Voice意為“聲音”，因為語言與聲音密不可分，故答案選D。
40. A。What’s the sense of…是英語中的慣用句式，其意為“……有什么意義”，如：What’s the sense of doing that? 為什么要做那件事呢？ How long must this go on? What’s the sense of this? 這種局勢要繼續(xù)多久呢? 它有什么意義呢?
41. B。make a promise為固定搭配，意為“許諾”，如：It’s easy to make a promise. 許愿是容易的。 He made a promise that he would pay back within a week. 他答應在一周之內會償還。
42. A。比較：atmosphere意為“氣氛”；state意為“狀態(tài)”；situation意為“狀況，處境”；phenomenon意為“現(xiàn)象”。根據句子語境，顯然只有A最合適。
43. A。問句的意思是：我們出去散散步好嗎？由于其中沒有指明具體的時間，根據語境，它暗示的應該是“現(xiàn)在”。所以，答語中的this一詞指的應該是時間，而不是地點、機會或情況等。故答案選A。
44. B。bargain用作名詞時可以表示表示經過討價還價后成交的商品或便宜貨，如：Such bargain offers can’t be repeated. 這么便宜的價錢不會再有了。He has an eye for a bargain. 他識便宜貨。
45. A。根據空格后的like coal, gas and oil可知，此題應填fuels，因為coal, gas, oil均屬于fuel。
