　　参考答案&解析：

　　1、A. crossed.

　　[注释]cross one's mind 想起：1)A sudden thought crossed my mind. 2)It never crossed my mind that he might refuse the request. (我从来没有想到他可能会拒绝这个请求。)

　　如用pass则应加through, 例如：When Jane did not come home by midnight, many terrible fears passed through Mother's mind. (=Mother thought of many things that might have happened to Jane.)

　　occur的用法如下：1)That view of the case did not occur to me before. (对这个案件的那种看法以前我没有想到过。)2)It occurred to her that she might adopt a homeless child.(她想到，她可以收养一个无家可归的孩子。)

　　关于“想起”的以上三种表达法考生务必弄懂熟记。这些词组和句形不仅在词汇测试中经常遇到，而且在短文写作时也可以使用。

　　2、D. on the side.

　　[注释]on the side(=in addition to a main thing) 额外;作为兼职：1)He ordered a hamburger with onions and French fries on the side. (=He ordered a hamburger with onions and French fries extra.) 2)He does some house-keeping work on the side.(他帮人家做些家务活作为兼职。)

　　on the rise(作表语)在上升;on the spot 现场;on the decline (做表语)在下降：The population in the country is on the decline. (这个国家的人口在下降。)

　　3、B. went under.

　　[注释]go under 破产，失败。fall through 也有“失败”之意，但多半指计划、想法等“落空”。

　　4、A. exclude.

　　[注释]exclude 排除。extinguish扑灭;eliminate消除。impose 把......强加给：Don't impose your wishes on us.(不要把你的意思强加给我们。)

　　5、D. embarrassed.　　[注释]be embarrassed 感到窘迫。
