参考解析：

1.【答案】A. 本题考查结构应用。句意为:吃完午饭后，他们讨论案件。现在分词短语作状语时，其逻辑主语应与句中主语一致。句中只能是they在discuss，分词逻辑主语是 they，句子主语也应是they;所以选项C、D均不对;而前半句用的是现在分词的完成式，表示动作发生在谓语动词表示的动作之前。

2.【答案】A. 本题考查时态应用。句意为:当亨利一天辛苦工作之后回到家时，他的妻子正在睡觉。本句中when引导的时间状语从句中的动作与主句中的动作同时发生，此时主句应用进行时;时间状语中用的是一般过去时，主句应用过去进行时。

3.【答案】D. 本题考查固定结构的用法。it was not until…that…为固定用法，意为“直到……才……”，符合题意。

4.【答案】A. 本题考查不定代词。句意为:就在那些日子里的一天，开始看似不会有什么有趣的事发生，但后来，当你并不期待任何事会发生时，几乎所有事情都发生了。因为前面需填之词应与后面所提的not...anything语义一致。

5.【答案】D. 本题考查固定搭配。句意为:这位老妇人已经遭受空巢综合症很久了，所以她想找个可以跟她说话的人。Feel like(doing)something想要做某事，意欲，故排除A,C两项。talk做“与……说话、谈话、交谈”之意讲时，是不及物动词，常与to或with连用。

6.【答案】A. 本题考查结构应用。现在分词短语作状语时，其逻辑主语应与句中主语一致。分析句子结构可知，现在分词的逻辑主语为she，因此主句主语也是she。

7.【答案】D. 本题考查动词短语辨析。句意为:食用太多的脂肪会导致心脏病和高血压。attribute，表示认为某事物归属于某人或某事，或认为某事由某人或某事而引起或产生，其惯用搭配是attribute sth.to sb; attend to“专心，注意，照顾”;devote to“把……献给，把……专用于”;contribute to“捐献，提供，起作用”。

8.【答案】A. 本题考查虚拟语气的应用。当advice, opinion，proposal，suggestion等词后面接名词性从句时，从句谓语一般要使用虚拟语气，即(should)+动词原形。
