【答案与解析】
1. B。it can’t be worse 在此相当于 It’s the worst thing I ever knew。
2. 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。
3. A。We couldn’t have picked a worst day 与 It is the worst day we’ve picked 同义。
4. A。a better 为 a better one 之省略。注意，a better one （一个更好的）是与前文“我知道这不是一个很适合的词”相呼应的。
5. 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。
6. 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。
7. 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）。
8. A。由关键词 No 可知，此处的意思是“不可能比这更差的（worse）了”。
9. C。more 不可修饰比较级，排除 B 和 D。greater...than others 表示的是最高级意义， 故后面用最高级。
10. D。只有表示实际距离的远，才可用 farther（此时也可用 further），否则就用 further。further education 进修； late 迟的；later 后来；lately＝recently 近来；latest 最新的。
11. C。still／even／much less 更不用说，更何况。
12. D。“the＋比较级，the＋比较级”意为“越……就越……”。
13. C。两者比较用比较级，表示“比……”；同级比较用 as...as 或 not as／so...as。句意为“那家商店的电脑将比这家商店的便宜，但不如这家商店的好。”
14. D。no better than ＝as badly as，意为“一样不好”。
15. A。此题考查比较级的用法。Mary 是想知道她比以往称起来重了多少，故用比较级。“how much＋比较级”意为“比以前（重、高、远……）多少”。
16. A。本题关键是对not in the least 的理解，它的意思是“一点也不好”，故可知道天气很糟糕。not 与比较级连用，事实上相当于一个最高级的用法。后句的意思是：一年之中再也碰不到比这更糟糕的天气了。
17. A。根据 How stupid！I fear there’s no hope for him 可知说话人对 Jim 新工作表现的评价是负面的，故选 A。no better than 表示“与……一样的不好，与……一样的差”之意。句意是：他做新工作与以前工作一样差。他太笨了，我担心他没什么希望了。
18. A。I’ve never seen a finer one 的实际意思是 This is the finest one I’ve ever seen。
19. C。因为 more than 与形容词连用，意为“非常”。
20. B。从 Yes 可知，说话者对中国运动员的表现是持肯定态度的。couldn’t...better 指好得不能再好，就是最好的意思。注意：这种 can 的否定式与比较级连用在听力里面也时常出现。（编辑 周贞雄）
