A. in B. on C. at D. of

【答案】A

【解析】某一年前用in; on用于具体的某一天;at表示时刻，时间的某一点;of不用于时间前，因此答案为A。

17. People ________ the southwest of China were in great need of water a couple of months ago.

A. in B. at C. to D. on

18. — Dr. Jackson is not in his office at the moment.

— All right. I ________ him later.

A. will call B. have called C. call D will be calling

【答案】A

【解析】考查时态。句意：—杰克逊博士现在不在办公室。——好的，我待会儿再打给他。由时间状语later和情景可知，此处表示临时性的打算，应该使用will表示一般将来时。故选A。

19. The books on the desk, ________ covers are shiny, are prizes for us.

A. Which B. what C. whose D. that

【答案】C

【解析】本题含有一个非限制性定语从句 ________ covers are shiny, 缺一个关系代词.先行词是the books，与covers是所属关系，即是“书的封面”，说明所填关系代词在从句中充当定语，用来修饰covers，而定语从句的关系代词中唯有whose有此功能，故选C。

20. Please read the ________ on the bottle and take the right amount of medicine.

A. explanations B. instructions C. descriptions D. introductions

【答案】B。

【解析】考查名词词义辨析。句意：请阅读瓶子上的说明，并服用适量的药物。explanations解释;instructions说明;descriptions描述;introductions介绍。由“take the right amount of medicine”可知，应该按照瓶子上的说明服用适量的药物。所以instructions“说明”符合句意。故B选项正确。
