A:Your brother's explanation was confusing.B:I .
I did not understand what he said either. 本题有7个选项,给了7个空,对号入座。 题目是个陈述句,说的是“你兄弟的解释让人困惑”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。开头的主语I已经给出,接下来应该是接谓语动词部分。从what一词可以猜测,后面一定有一个what引导的从句,而从句里也一定会有另一套主谓结构。所以,先找出两套谓语:did not understand和said。再找出另一个主语he。 这样一来,就有两种搭配方式:I did not understand what he said yet.或者I said what he did not understand yet. 很明显,只有前者才符合语境。 所以,本题的正确答案是:I did not understand what he said either.
A:Who was finally selected to lead the project?B:I .
I have not heard who is going to be in charge.(did是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个疑问句,问的是“最终谁被选出来领导这个项目”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。开头的主语I已经给出,接下来应该是填谓语部分。注意到有who这个词,应该是个从句,那么从句里也会有一套主谓宾。很明显,is going是从句的谓语,不可能是主句的谓语,那么主句的谓语就只能是did not have或者have not heard。 所以,有两种可能:I did not have who is going...或者I have not heard who is going...。很明显,后面的搭配更顺畅。剩余的to be和in charge自然跟上。 所以,本题的正确答案是:I have not heard who is going to be in charge.(did是多余的)
A:Why did the client call this morning?B: when .
They want an update on when we expect to finish the project.(do是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个疑问句,问的是“今早客户为什么打电话来”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。开头的主语一定是they want,后面跟的有可能是an update, the project或者to finish三种可能。 但考虑到第三空后面有when引导的从句,所以排除to finish和the project两种可能,因为这两个填进去的花,第三个空没有任何词适合。因此前面只能是They want an update on when...。 when引导的从句的主语必然是we或者the project,谓语动词可能是do或者expect,无论哪一个,主语都只能是we,因为the project后面应该跟单数第三人称。这样一来,the project就必然是宾语。还剩下一个to finish,应该放到the project前面。 所以,有两种可能:when we do to finish the project或者when we expect to finish the project。根据句意,选择后者。 所以,本题的正确答案是:They want an update on when we expect to finish the project.(do是多余的)
A:Do you know what the outdoor club's destination is this weekend?B:I .
I have no idea where they are going.(what是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。注意到选项中出现了what和where两个关系词,猜测应该有一个是多余的。 题目是个疑问句,问的是“本周末这个户外俱乐部的目的地是哪”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。开头的主语I已经给出。从destination一词可以基本判断,what是多余的,后面应该会跟一个where引导的从句。 主语I后面应该跟一个谓语动词,只能是have,然后是宾语,只能是no idea,再接下来就是where从句。到目前为止,前半部分应该是I have no idea where...。 剩下的where从句应该和destination有关,里面的主谓宾只能是they are going。 所以,本题的正确答案是:I have no idea where they are going.(what是多余的)
A:Why were you late to Angelina's party?B: not .
I did not think it would start on time.(theirs是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个疑问句,问的是“Angelina的party你什么迟到了”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。既然问的是you,回答必然是I开头。而且第二个空后面有个not,所以第二个空必然要填度动词would或者did。 再之后是谓语动词,只能是think或者start。但题目问的是late to party的原因,所以这里的start的主语应该是party才对。所以前面可以判断的是I did not think...或者I would not think...。 剩余的内容应该是think后面的宾语从句,只不过省略了that这个连接词。从句里的主语必然是it,然后是助动词would或者did,然后是宾语start,最后是状语on time。 但如果不出现not,助动词did一般不会直接出现。也就是说,it did start on time的说法不常见,除非是表示强调。但这里看不出强调的语气,所以排除这种可能性。 所以,本题的正确答案是:I did not think it would start on time.(theirs是多余的)
A:Did the project manager ask about the report?B:Yes, wanted .
Yes, she wanted to know if we needed more time to finish.(did是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个疑问句,问的是“项目经理关于这个报告问了点啥”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。回答应该是以she开头。Wanted后面必然是名词或者to do形式。但既然是关于ask,应该是She wanted to know,后面跟一个if从句。 if从句后面的主语只能是we,谓语动词是did或者needed,宾语应该是more time。很明显,did more time搭配不当。所以,did是多余的。最后的to finish放到最后做补语。 所以,本题的正确答案是:Yes, she wanted to know if we needed more time to finish.(did是多余的)
A:What did Margot want to know about tomorrow's meeting?B: was .
She was curious about who needs to attend it.(does是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个疑问句,问的是“关于明天的会议,Margot想要知道点啥”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。回答应该是以she开头。谓语部分应该是关于want to know的改写,所以必然是was curious about,然后是who引导的从句。 who这个宾语从句里,谓语动词只能说needs,因为无论主语是who本身承担还是it承担,都是单数第三人称。Needs后面必然是to attend it,所以主语必然是who。 所以,本题的正确答案是:She was curious about who needs to attend it.(does是多余的)
A:I hear there are some problems with the new video software.B:Yes, and the manager quickly.
Yes, and the manager wants to know how we can resolve them quickly.(to是多余的) 本题有8个选项,给了7个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个陈述句,说的是“我听说新的视频软件还有些问题”,让我们填的也是个陈述句。回答是以the manager开头(已经给出)。谓语部分必然是wants或者can resolve。如果是can resolve,后面必然是them(代指some problems),这样一来,剩余的内容就没法填了。所以,前面的谓语动词只能是wants,后面必然是to know,再让后就是how引导的从句。 从句里的主干内容必然是we resolve them,然后把剩余的to, can适当选择,只能是how we can resolve them。因而,to是多余的。 所以,本题的正确答案是:Yes, and the manager wants to know how we can resolve them quickly.(to是多余的)
A:I've got my interview at the accounting firm tomorrow.B:Could you tell me ?
Could you tell me how you are feeling about it?(is是多余的) 本题有7个选项,给了6个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。 题目是个陈述句,说的是“我收到了明天去会计公司面试的通知”,让我们填的是个疑问句。很明显,could you tell me后面应该是跟一个从句,需要以how来引导。 how引导的从句里,主语可能是it is,也可能是you are,但无论是哪一个,后面都需要接feeling,那么从句意上理解,必然是how you are feeling,然后是about it。 所以,本题的正确答案是:Could you tell me how you are feeling about it?(is是多余的)
A:I didn't enjoy the story we had to read for homework.B:Can you tell me ?
Can you tell me what you did not like about it?(liked是多余的) 本题有7个选项,给了6个空,所以必然有一个单词是多余的。看到like和liked两个词有点重复,大致猜测二者之中应该有一个是多余的。 题目是个陈述句,说的是“我不喜欢我们作业要求读的那个故事”,让我们填的是个疑问句。很明显,can you tell me后面应该是跟一个从句,需要以what来引导。 what引导的从句里,主语只能是you,谓语动词。可能是liked,也可能是did not like。如果是前者liked,那么did not like这三个词就都是多余的了,所以排除。因而应该是what you did not like,最后加上about it. 所以,本题的正确答案是:Can you tell me what you did not like about it?(liked是多余的)
