参考解析：

1.【答案】D. 本题考查动词辨析。本句意为“当他意识到自己是受到蒙蔽才签这份合同时，就威胁说要诉诸法律来终止这份协议”。而elicited“引出”;excited“激动;唤起”;deduced“推断”;induced“引诱”。

2.【答案】D. 本题考查结构应用。当动词不定式作主语时，常用it作为形式主语放在句首代替真正的主语，结构为itis+形容词(forsb)to do sth.o

3.【答案】C. 本题考查词义辨析。本句意为“该书是关于这些基本信念和价值观是如何影响美国人生活的重要方面的。”所以，画线单词sides在此意为“方面”。fashions“流行，风尚”;frontiers“国境，边境”;facets“面，方面”;formats“格式”。

4.【答案】A. 本题考查词义辨析。本句意为“有些孩子对其遇到的所有新事物都表现出令人难以置信的好奇心”。incredible“令人难以置信的”;infectious“传染的”;incompatible“不兼容的”:inaccessible“不能到达的”。

5.【答案】A. 本题考查动词的辨析。句意为:隽语通常被描述为简练、巧妙表达的机智诙谐的思想。descry“看见，望见”。describe“描述”，describe sth as sth“叫做，称做” discard“丢弃，抛弃”，deserve“应受，值得”，disconcert“使惊惶，使仓皇失措”。

6.【答案】A. 本题考查连词的用法。句意为“人类比动物高级，因为他们可以用语言作为交流工具”。根据句意可知，本句缺少的是一个表示原因的连词。在四个选项中，只有从属连词in that表示“由于，因为”。

7.【答案】A. 本题考查动词的时态。新疆航空公司只服务中国的东南部乘客和客户。本句是在陈述一般事实，所以使用一般现在时态;主语“The Xinjiang Airlines”是一个航空公司的名称，是单数，所以谓语动词应用动词的第三人称单数。

8.【答案】D. 本题考查both…and…的用法。句意为:资深参议员在过去的三个任期内在与对手的斗争中，既经历了成功的甜头，也历经了失败的痛苦。分析句子结构可知，此句缺少谓语动词，所以排除A、B两项:根据时间状语in the past three terms可知，此句应用现在完成时。
