答案與解析：
1.our communication would not have been so efficient and convenient
虛擬語氣的用法，but for 要不是，假若沒有 ，在句子開頭引導(dǎo)虛擬語氣。需要注意的'是，除了but for以外，能夠表示虛擬條件的詞和短語還包括：but that、without、otherwise、or等。
2.nothing is more helpful than humor/ a sense of humor
more than 比 多 ;幽默感sense of humor
3.but he refused to make further explanation(注意時(shí)態(tài))
拒絕做某事：refuse to do;進(jìn)一步make further explanation
4.while animal behavior depends mainly upon their instinct
本題句型考點(diǎn)為while在分句中間做轉(zhuǎn)折連詞的用法，詞匯考點(diǎn)則為behavior, depend on/upon, instinct等基礎(chǔ)詞匯的基本用法。此外，根據(jù)前半句得出，behavior在這里用單數(shù)表示行為概念。
