　　参考答案&解析：

　　1、C. at all.

　　[注释]at all全然，真地(常用于肯定句中)：If you do it at all, do it well.(你若真做，就得做好。)not...at all全不，毫不：He doesn't seem at all interested in my plane.(他似乎对我的计划毫无兴趣。)above all(=most important of all)最重要的。in all总计：We were fifteen in all.(我们总计15人。)after all毕竟，终究。

　　本题译文：他是否努力工作到并不重要，问题是他是否真正地做了。

　　2、B. pains.

　　[注释]take pains to do sth.下苦功夫做某事：I'm grateful because you have taken pains to show me how to do the work.

　　3、C. reset

　　[注释]the rest (of)剩余部分，其余。remain作“剩余物”(=what is left)解时常用复数形式，如：the remains of a meal(残羹剩饭)。（ALI]《新英汉辞典》认为也可以用单数，可作参考。）

　　4、D. restrictions.

　　[注释]restriction(可数名称)限制性规定：It is a club with rigid restrictions on its membership.

　　Limitation局限性，不足之处，不利之处(可数)：1)I know my limitations.(我了解我的不足之处。) 2)Every from of art has its limitations.(每种艺术形式都有其局限性。)

　　5、B. results.

　　[注释]result意为“由某种活动或某种原因所产生的结果”，如：obtain(=get, attain, gain win, secure)good results(取得好结果)，publish the results(公布成绩)。
