Profits reached ￡l 15 million before tax, compared with ￡l 16.3 million last year. Much of our success in the last six months can be (21) to the fact that all our major construction projects remained on schedule. Particularly pleasing was the early (22)of a major building contract in Canada.

Negotiations with a potential buyer began in February and are now at a critical (27).However, we feel that we are not as yet in a (28) to comment on what the outcome is likely to be.

In June, we made a successful (29) for the Renishaw Construction Company of Hong Kong SAR, in order to give us greater (30) to markets in South East Asia.

文章是一篇報告，介紹了公司某段時間的發(fā)展狀況，總體的勢頭是良好的，積極向上。

19和20題需要在一起考慮，從整體上把握句子的意思。in line with與....一致;on track ：doing or saying things that are likely to be successful or correct步入正軌;on target(射擊)準。20空選詞關(guān)鍵要將空格前面的those for the corresponding和前面的for this first half對應，這里空格填入的詞要能和this first half相匹配，表示時間段，時期，所以是period。因為是半年，所以不選season。整個句子的意思是這半年的營業(yè)利潤(operating profit)實際上是與去年同期相一致的。

21題，attribute to，表原因，聯(lián)系整個句子不難做出選擇。designate是委任、指派

22題，意思是完成了一個主要的建筑合同，從一個pleasing可以看出感情基調(diào)，A和B肯定不選，不是終止也不是結(jié)束，finalise最后定下來，定案。

23題，大部分股東都支持、贊同董事會的決定，選support，如果是agree的話后面需要with。

24題，董事會的決定是賣掉公司虧損的工程部。A、B首先排除，做完形填空最忌諱的是把漢語思維和漢語含義帶入英文語境中，有的時候?qū)幙蛇x自己從來沒有見過的用法，也不要從漢語意思出發(fā)強塞一個英文單詞進去。sector是(尤指一國經(jīng)濟的)部門、行業(yè)，division是(一個機構(gòu)的)部門。

25和26題，句子的意思是公司將通過把資源集中在建筑活動的擴張上來獲得大部分的收益。25題的A和C容易排除，關(guān)鍵是看gain還是earn。earn是通過努力掙到一筆錢(to receive a particular amount of money for the work that you do)，gain是獲得或者實現(xiàn)什么(to obtain or achieve something you want or need)，因為是公司的戰(zhàn)略，所以用gain更合適一些。

27題，at a critical stage，在一個關(guān)鍵的階段。

28題，in a position to do sth.能夠做某事。固定搭配

29題，成功招標，bid

30題，give us greater access to markets給我們更大的市場準入

31題，growth strategy，增長策略，追求我們的增長策略。

32題，探索更多的商業(yè)機會。inquire詢問;deliberate仔細考慮，深思熟慮;

33題，為我們開放新的市場。provide后需要加with
