1.C
(be) at/on the point of doing sth = be about to do sth 正要去做某事
其后经常接when引导的并列句（非时间状语从句）,意思是“某人正要做某事,就在这时...”.
2.C
look up 向上看/抬头看；（生意、某人的情况等） 好转/改善；拜访(某人)； 查找
此题考查它的“好转/改善”之意.
3.D
what he does为主语从句,其中does为该从句的谓语；
第二个也用助动词does,表示强调,且其后的动词用原形.因为主语what he does为单数,所以借助于助动词does来对谓语please进行强调.
再如：He does love you.就是 He loves you.的强调表示句型.
不过此题貌似A也勉强可以,因为以what引导的主语从句,可能表示单数概念,也可能表示复数概念.
此题没有绝对把握,sorry!
4.D
in spite of = despite,可都做介词,引导宾语the fact,排除B；
anyhow意思是“无论如何/不管怎样”,not at all不会这样去修饰形容词boring,排除AC.
somewhat = a little,意思是“一点点”,做程度副词,用于修饰形容词/副词表示程度.

A是拿起，开始从事，占据 B是上升，起义，叛变 C是仰望，查阅，...
