【答案解析】

1.【答案】A。解析：考查不定代词辨析。句意：标准英语的发音和表达方式不能显示说话者的背景。no one = nobody表示“没人”，两者均只能指人，不能指物;用作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数。如：No one / Nobody knows precisely how many people are still living in the camp.(没有人确切知道还有多少人仍住在露营地)，句中的the way of pronunciation and expression of standard English为物，故排除B、D。nothing表示“什么东西/事情也没有”，用来指物;用作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数。如：Nothing is difficult if you work hard.(如果你努力的话，没有什么是困难的)，结合语境，nothing符合。neither...nor...为固定搭配，表示“两者都不”，句中的“pronunciation”和“expression”之间用and连接，故排除C。综合以上分析，正确答案为A。

2.【答案】A。解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：——Fed在电话中告诉你关于我的事情了吗?——什么也没说，他只是说期待收到你的来信。expect to do sth.期望做某事，为固定用法，且“收到你的来信”这一动作还未发生，所以应该用expect to hear from you，故选A。

3.【答案】B。解析：考查短语辨析。句意：杰克竭尽全力在举重决赛中获胜了。in spite of 表示“尽管”，相当于despite，其后接名词或动名词，例如：In spite of / Despite mounting public discontent, the government is determined to push the bill through.(虽然公众的不满愈来愈强烈，政府还是执意要通过议案)。by means of通过，依靠;regardless of不管，不顾;in terms of在……方面，从……角度看，根据……来说。根据句意，杰克“通过自己的努力”在举重决赛中获胜了。
