解析：介词短语of all games是表示“范围”的，在一定的范围内作比较，是用形容词的最高级。interesting是多音节的形容词，所以它的最高级是用the most interesting。

解析：本句是在语境中辨别形容词的用法，根据句意选sweet。 （ ）7. The blackboard ______ just now. Do you know who did it?

A. cleaned B. was cleaning C. has cleaned D. was cleaned 答案：D

解析：just now的意思是“刚才”，可以判断是过去时， blackboard不能执行后面的动作clean，所以用被动语态，表示主语是动作的承受者，故用一般过去时的被动语态。

（ ）8. We will not go home _____ it stops raining. A. after B. before C. until D. when 答案：C

解析：本句考查until的用法。until和not连用表示“直到...才做某事”的意思。

（ ）9.That house is not , so we have to buy it. A. enough big; enough money B. big enough；enough money

C. enough big; money enough D. much big; many money 答案：B

解析：本句考查enough的用法。enough作副词修饰形容词的时候，放在形容词的后面；enough作形容词修饰名词的时候，放在名词的前面。第一个空是用enough修饰形容词big，所以用big enough；第二个空用enough修饰后面的名词，所以用

enough money。

（ ）10. Can you tell me ____？

A. who the machine invented B. who the machine invented by

C. who was the machine invented by D. who the machine was invented by 答案：D

解析：本句为宾语从句，从句应用陈述句语序，又是被动语态。故选D.
