31. __________ me to your mother when you are in London.

• A. Tell
• B. Remind
• C. Remember
• D. Greet

Explanation: “Remember me to your mother” is a fixed expression meaning “give my regards to your mother.” “Remind me to” would require an action that the speaker must be reminded to perform.

32. The boy I was about to meet _________ play a very important role in my life.

• A. is going to
• B. might have
• C. would get to
• D. has had to

Explanation: “Would get to play” expresses a future opportunity viewed from a past point: the boy was expected to have an important role later. The other options do not form a suitable meaning with “play a very important role.”

33. I would really ____________if you could help me out.

• A. respect
• B. value
• C. appreciate
• D. regard

Explanation: Appreciate is the natural verb in the polite expression “I would really appreciate it if you could help.” Respect, value and regard do not normally fit this request without an object.

34. She has only ________friends.

• A. fewer
• B. less
• C. more
• D. a few

Explanation: A few means some, and “only a few friends” is the natural expression. “Fewer” requires a comparative context, while “less” is normally used with uncountable nouns.

35. The flight stewardess the passenger _____________.

• A. when to start travelling
• B. where to land the plane
• C. how to fasten the seat belt
• D. how to judge the altitude of the plane

Explanation: A flight stewardess normally explains how to fasten a seat belt, an instruction passengers need before take-off. The other options concern flying or navigation, which are not the stewardess’s usual task.

36. ________you leave now, you will be late.

• A. Until
• B. Till
• C. Unless
• D. Although

Explanation: “Unless” means “if not,” so the sentence means that failure to leave now will result in lateness. “Until” and “till” express time, not this condition.

37. _________the rain forests is very important, if we do not want the flora and fauna found there to become extinct.

• A. Reserving
• B. Destroying
• C. Preserving
• D. Maintaining

Explanation: Preserving rain forests means protecting them from destruction, which helps prevent their plants and animals from becoming extinct. “Destroying” has the opposite meaning, and “reserving” is not suitable here.

38. I assume ______________with me.

• A. every one agreeing
• B. that every one agrees
• C. every one to agree
• D. that every one to agree

Explanation: “Assume” can be followed by a that-clause, and “every one” takes the singular verb “agrees.” The infinitive construction after “assume” is not grammatical here.

39. Ocean currents play a _______role in setting long-term climate_________.

• A. vital ... date
• B. important ... variations
• C. major ... patterns
• D. unusual ... changes

Explanation: Ocean currents strongly influence the distribution of heat and therefore help establish long-term climate patterns. Major is less precise here because vital describes their essential role, while patterns naturally completes the climate phrase.
