【华慧考博】考博英语每日一练（7.12）参考答案
1.B【句意】除低温之外，短的生长期及大雪也会妨碍高海拔地方树的生长。
【解析】语法结构——主谓语结构。及物动词prevent“妨碍；阻止”充当谓语，题干中需填入一个名词做prevent的宾语，由此知B项“the growth of trees树的生长”正确。
2.D
【句意】与广为流传的看法相反的是，如果没有人在周围踩蟑螂的话，它们就不会统治世界。
【解析】词组辨析题。in view of“考虑到；由于”；thanks to“由于，幸亏”；in case of“如果，万一”；contrary to“与……相反”。由句中关键词“widespread belief广为流传的看法”与后半句的句意的对应知“与……相反”符合语境，故D项正确。
