1.【解析】选B。考查冠词。一个iPad用an表示数量；a birthday present指一份生日礼物，故用a。
2.【解析】选C。考查代词。all指三者或三者以上的全部的人或事物，意思是“全都”；either表示（两个中）任何一个；both两个都；neither两个都不。根据下文in case the trip is boring可知，两本书都带着，以免旅行途中无聊。
3.【解析】选D。考查从属连词。该句中主句缺少work with的宾语somebody，而从句缺少主语somebody。whom（宾格） 和who（主格）在名词性从句中只能充当从句的成分，如果选who，则主句仍然缺少宾语；whoever（主格）和whomever（宾格）引导名词性从句时具有双重成分，相当于anyone who；该句中从句缺少主语，因此只能用主格whoever。
4. 【解析】选D。考查非谓语动词。该句从句中缺少条件状语，从句的主语exercise与carry out之间是被动关系，所以要用过去分词；A项虽然表示被动，但是作状语时往往表示正在进行。也可以将该题看作是省略句，省略了it (proper amounts of exercise) is。
5.【解析】选C。考查情态动词。should表示推测，意为“按道理应该”，语气比must弱。句意：——医生，我儿子会不会很快好起来？——要是他吃了这些药片应该会（很快好起来）。
【方法技巧】should表示推测
should表示推测时，常可表示在一段时间内可能发生的事或某人的期望。一般句末有时间状语或有语境暗示。所表示的猜测发生的可能性很大，但没有must的语气强。must意思是“肯定，一定”；而should表示的是推测，意思是“按道理说应该会”“想必会”，既突出了把握性，又留下了“万一”的余地。再如：
—I wonder if I can board the plane with this return ticket.
—There _______ be no problem. Your ticket is valid until the end of this month.
A. must B. shall C. should D. might
【解析】选C。句意：——不知我用这张往返票能不能上飞机。——应该没问题。你的票有效期至这个月底。
6.【解析】选B。考查从属连词。根据从句“我乐意帮忙”和主句“没有空闲的时间”之间的逻辑关系可以看出，该两句是转折关系。because因为，引导原因状语从句；while正当……的时候，引导时间状语从句，但也可以引导让步状语从句，意思是“虽然”；when当……的时候，引导时间状语从句；since自……以来；既然，引导时间状语从句和原因状语从句。
7.【解析】选D。考查动词时态。根据对话内容可知说话者一方想打电话，无奈有位女士也在打电话。for the last twenty minutes说明该女士二十分钟前开始打电话，现在仍然在打，而且有可能还要继续打下去，故用现在完成进行时。
8.【解析】选B。考查状语从句。此句句意：——看，墙上潮湿的地方涂料开始脱落了。——对，我们最好改天找人重刷一遍。where引导地点状语从句，意思是“在……那个地方”。
9.【解析】选A。考查动词短语辨析。句意：她得到了这份工作，因为她懂得多种语言方面的有利条件使她胜过了其他的人。have the advantage of 有……的有利条件；have the advantage over 比……处于有利地位，胜于，优于。
10.【解析】选C。考查形容词辨析。根据后面的原因“有适合你的职位的时候你就会被调离的”可知，前面的意思是“你在这儿的工作是暂时的”。permanent永久的，永恒的；compulsory义务的, 必修的；temporary暂时的，临时的；fundamental基本的, 根本的。
