解析:
1. C。前面提到football, basketball 和 baseball 三种体育活动,此句指每项活动都有自己的季节。every不能作主语,both、each、all均能作句子的主语,但只有each表示单数意义。
2. D。millions of 后接可数名词复数,其余选项不可与名词复数连用。
3. B。由where(= in the cities)引导定语从句,从句意为:这些职业球队所在的城市。
4. A。follow 意为“注视、注意、倾听”,此处指多数城市里的人们带着兴趣和热情观看球赛。
5. A。well-known 意为“出名的”,句意为:篮球闻名于全世界。
6. D。play 意为“进行…比赛”。此句意为:在冬天的几个月里,美国职业球赛在室内进行,表示现阶段的情况。选A时态不符,选C主谓数不一致。
7. B。one 泛指某个人。
8. C。上下文均提到American。
9. B。此处宜用现在完成时,表示从过去到现在一直称篮球为国民消遣活动。
10. A。根据四个选项,只有nearly(几乎)可用于句中,表示几乎每个晚上。
11. C。weekend 前面用介词on。
12. D。此句意为:季节开始(begins)于四月,结束(finishes)于十月。这是由and并列两个谓语动词,形式上用一致。
13. D。此处宜用现在完成时表示从过去到现在足球都是十分流行的职业体育活动。
14. A。在秋季,可用in the fall或during the fall。
15. B。be different from 意为“与…不同”。
16. D。非限制性定语从句应由which(= football)引导,不用that。
17. B。篮球和足球都需要体力(strength)和技能(skills)。
18. C。由下文可知:职业运动员所得薪水很高,故选well paid。
19. A。make 意为“获得、挣得”。
20. B。pay 意为“工资”,普通用词。wage 意为“工资”指发给从事体力劳动者的工钱。salary 意为“薪金”,指发给做比较重要工作的、具有较高技术或从事脑力劳动的人员的工资,如公司职员、秘书、教师官员等,总统(president)属官员,故要选salary。
