A.单句填空 1.To warm himself, the sailor sat in front of the fire rubbing one bare foot against________. 答案 the other [句意:为了让自己暖和,那位水手坐在火堆前面,用一只脚摩擦另外一只脚。表示两者之间的“一个……另一个……”要用one...the other...。] 2.The traffic on the main street has a longer green signal than ________ on the small ones. 答案 that [句意:主街道上的绿色信号灯的时长要比小道上的长。用that代替特指的不可数名词“the traffic”,以免与前文重复。] 3.The meeting will be held in September, but________ knows the date for sure. 答案 nobody [句意:会议要在九月召开,但是没有人知道确切日期。该句由but连接的两个并列分句构成。第一个分句说会议将要在九月召开,而转折词but意味着两个分句意思相反,故用否定词nobody。] 4.A smile costs________, but gives much. 答案 nothing/little [句意:微笑不会损失什么,但是却能给予很多。根据题干中的but可推知设空处应为表示否定的代词,故答案为nothing或little。] 5.She'd lived in London and Manchester, but she liked________and moved to Cambridge. 答案 neither [句意:她在伦敦和曼彻斯特居住过,但是她不喜欢这两座城市,然后搬到剑桥了。由表示转折的连词but可知该空应该表示否定意思,题干中两个名词(London, Manchester)此处表示“两者都不”,故答案为neither。] |
