Answers：34 THE 35 TAKE 36 OUR 37 THROUGH
38 ARE 39 LOOK 40 PLACE 41 YEARS
42 FOR 43 THAT 44 CORRECT 45 OF
详细解释：00 waste是及物动词，后面直接跟上名词，of多余。
34 on offer是固定结构，类似的有on sale / on exhibition等。
35 介词后要用V- ing形式， 用for短语表示目的， 动词take多余。
36 这里是是“国际性会议”，并不是指谁的，所以our是干扰词。
37 这是一个强调句，强调主语,如果用了through后面的 has的主语就是介词短语through the improvement了。所以，through是多余的。对于强调句，解决的方法就是去掉It is …that后看句子主干是否完整正确。
38 这一题应该联系下一行，删除are后是用过去分词作后置定语。
39 这里要用like，表示举例说明，look是多余的，可以根据句意判断出。
40 place没有必要，与前面的主语they也不一致。
41 not long ago是固定结构，years是多余的。
42 as far as是一个连词词组，而for是介词，后面接的是句子,应该去掉for。
43 句子没有“既然”的意思，用了that造成句子意思有悖于原文。
44 这一行没有错误。
45 这里of是多余的，应该去掉，用the same day做状语。当然，如果是四六级的题目，我们也可以把of改为in，用介词短语作状语。但BEC中没有这种改法。

34 to be very strong , and I have to say I found that the selection procedure really
35 hard.” she says. “I don’t think I had any of chance of winning. When I heard my
36 name , my legs were so weak I could only hardly stand up .”she laughs. So

38 and very different from individuals ? The final decision was reached after

Answers： 34 THAT 35 OF 36 ONLY 37 SO
38 FROM 39 OF 40 HOW 41 CORRECT
42 OUT 43 UP 44 WILL 45 BE
详细解释：00 seem不能用于seem sb. to be 结构。代词me是多余的。
34 混用了find用于宾语从句和复合结构的句型，that是多余的。
35 any后面直接跟上名词，当后面含有定冠词，形容词性物主代词或人称代词宾格的时候要加上of，如：any of the / their products , any of them .
36 only和hardly不可以同时使用,根据句意，应该删除only。
37 含有”极端”意义的词不与so连用。
38 当表示两个事物相比较的时候，我们会用different from，在这里并没有比较，所以不用加上from。
39 在the skills she uses in her job helped her how to perform well中she uses in her job是一个定语从句，省略了that或which，去掉从句后the skills helped her how to perform well.是一个句子，所以believe后不可以加上of。
40 考察help sb. to do sth.结构.how跟well不可以同时使用,因为well回答了how
41 这一行没有错误。
42 try to do 试图/努力做某事。
43 close up是“倒闭”的意思，而文中“关闭，关门”的意思，即“暂停营业”。
44 时间,条件,让步状语从句用一般现在时表将来.
45 be动词后的动词要用现在分词或过去分词，不可接动词原形，所以，句子中的be是多余的，在这里用动词原形即可。
