Statements 1. 【原文】As far as I know, the Beachside hotel is one of the favorite hotels for many businesspeople, as it is always ready to offer the best conference facilities. 【预测】首先圈划专有名词Beachside Hotel，排除不必要的误解。B选项中有only这个语气绝对的词，一般来说，不是正确选项。C、D选项句式并列，主语相同应该密切关注。 【解析】答案为C。D是一个主语混淆项，hotel提供conference facility，而不是business people。 【注释】核心动词是be ready to offer(随时可以提供)，注意它的同义词是provide，反向动词是take。 2. 【原文】The department is very selective in recruiting its new staff members.
