A.she realized                 B.she had realized      C.had she realized          D.did she realize

解析  “only+介词短语/句子”这一结构置于句首时，整个主句必须倒装。此外，由then可确定用过去时态。

解析  句意为：（约翰）面对着一张 000美元的账单，接受了另一份工作做兼职。这个句子意思已表明，face的逻辑主语与主句主语应当一致，都是得到兼职工作的John。

12.(江西29)

her doctor’s help to end her life.

C.There being hope for cure                                   D.In the hope of cure

答案  B

解析  本题考查with结构（独立主格结构）。根据句意，显然其余三项不符合。

13.(江苏35)

                about wild plants that they decided to make a trip to Madagascar for further research.

 A.So curious the couple was                                   B.So curious were the couple

C.How curious the couple were                              D.The couple was such curious

答案  B

解析  句意为:这对夫妇对于野生植物是那样的好奇；以致于他们决定去马达加斯加进一步研究。此题考查主谓一致和倒装结构。主语是couple，所以谓语用复数形式；该句子用部分倒装，so修饰的形容词或副词提到句首。

14.(全国Ⅰ30)

 It wasn’t until nearly a month later                     I received the manager’s reply.

A.since                                B.when                               C.as                             D.that

答案  D

解析  考查强调句的用法。强调句型的构成是：It is/was+强调部分+that/who/whom+其他，不管强调什么成分，都可用that，在强调指人的“主语”时可用who，强调指人的“宾语”时可用whom。如果强调的是状语，只能用that。在这个句子中，所强调的是时间状语nearly a month later。

15.(上海29)

A.wasn’t there                B.was there               C.didn’t it                     D.did it

解析  考查反意疑问句。因为陈述部分是肯定形式，所以反意疑问部分用否定形式。

Never before                  in greater need of modern public transport than it is today.

A.has this city been         B.this city has been    C.was this city                     D.this city was

答案  A

解析  本题考查倒装语序。当含有否定意义的副词或连词放在句首时，句子通常用部分倒装。结合语境判断，本题应为完成时态，而C项为过去时态，不合适。

17.(天津4)

They have a good knowledge of English but little                 they know about German.

A.have                                  B.did                                   C.had                                  D.do

答案  D

解析  本题考查倒装语序。本题应该注意连词but后面是个否定副词little，根据语法理论，否定副词放在句首要用部分倒装，结合句子时态的运用，句子应该用一般现在时态，所以本题答案为D项。

18.(天津9)

It is what you do rather than what you say                  matters.

A.that                                   B.what                                C.which                              D.this

答案  A

解析  It is...that...引导强调句，对主语从句进行强调。

19.(辽宁35)

In the dark forests                  ，some large enough to hold several English towns.

A.stand many lakes         B.lie many lakes         C.many lakes lie            D.many lakes stand

答案  B

解析  本题干的前半部分的正常结构应为:Many lakes lie in the dark forests。而此处把地点状语提前，构成了倒装句。如选A项可改为In the dark forests stand many monuments，stand表“耸立，屹立”，不能修饰lake。B项中的lie表“躺；位于”。

20.(福建32)

 Only after my friend came                   .

A.did the computer repair                                     B.he repaired the computer

C.was the computer repaired                                 D.the computer was repaired

答案  C

解析  本题考查倒装句。“only+状语”放在句首时，句子要用倒装语序。句意为：直到我的朋友回来后，电脑才修好。很明显computer与repair之间是被动关系，所以谓语动词要用被动语态。
