30.D.本題考查虛擬語氣的用法。but for+名詞/代詞，「要不是因為…」，提出與事實相反的假設，相當於一個條件狀語從句，所在句子常用虛擬語氣。其他的結構都不用虛擬語氣。從主句「we should have reached our destination」可判斷，該句使用了虛擬語氣，所以選D.句意為：要不是下霧，我們就到達目的地了。

41.C.本題考查動詞辨析。rescue sb.from sth.「從…當中援救…」，固定搭配；regain「收回，恢復」；recoverfrom…「從…當中恢復」；reserve「保存，保留，預定」。句意為：他們從著火的大樓裡援救這個孩子的所有努力全都白費了。
42.C.本題考查形容詞辨析。overall「全部的，全面的」；joint「共同的，聯合的」；intensive「強烈的」；decisive「決定性的」。從詞義上來看，應選0verall.句意為：這本書總的目的是幫助彌補研究和教學之間的差距，尤其是研究員和教師之間的差距。
43.C.本題考查形容詞辨析。unique「惟一的，獨特的，獨一無二的」（強調與眾不同）；excep—tional「例外的，不尋常的」（強調非凡的，優異的）；strange「陌生的，奇怪的，奇異的」（強調奇怪）；rare「稀罕的，傑出的」（強調稀有）。所以unique最合適。句意為：太空梭的獨特之處在於它像火箭一樣起飛而像飛機那樣降落。
44.D.本題考查介詞的用法。against常用來表示「機會，機率」的百分比，to常常表示比分中的「幾比幾」。句意為：在海王星上發現生命的機率是百萬分之一。
45.B.本題考查句子結構以及worth和worthwhile的區別。it在本句中是形式賓語，worth—while是賓語補足語。worth一般不單獨使用，往往構成「worth+錢」或「worth doing」的結構中，表示「值…錢」或「某事值得被做」，因此在本句中不合適。worthy在"worthy to do"或"woahy of sth./doing sth."的結構中表示「值得做的」，做定語修飾名詞時表示「可敬的，相稱的」，所以也不符合題意。只有worthwhile「值得做的，值得出力的」在語法和含義上都符合。句意為：他們覺得為可能遇到的最壞情況做準備不值得。
