新概念英语第二册7课文笔记课后练习答案(2)
a. took off it b. it took off c. took off d. took it off
选 d
4个选择中只有d. took it off 最符合题目意思和语法,所以选d。
8. The detectives were ______ a valuable parcel of diamonds.
a. expecting b. waiting c. expecting for d. expecting to
选 a
b. waiting 是不及物动词,后面不能直接跟名词;c. expecting for 中expect是及物动词后面不能加for;d. expecting to 中expect后不能加to; 只有a. expecting最合语法。
9. The parcel was valuable. It was ______.
a. worth b. worthy c. precious d. value
选 c
本句需要选一个与前句中的valuable(宝贵的,珍贵的)意思相同的形容词做表语。a. worth可以做名词和形容词,意思是“价值”,“值得……的”,不是valuable的同义词;b. worthy 是形容词,意思是“有价值的”“值得的”常于of 或不定式连用,不能单独做表语,也不是valuable的同义词;d. value 是名词,不符合词性;只有c. precious 是形容词,意思是“宝贵的”,“珍贵的”,是valuable的同义词,可以做表语,所以选c。
10. The thieves wanted to ______ the diamonds.
a. rob b. steal c. take from d. take to
选 b
c. take from ,d. take to 都不符合语法;a. rob 和b. steal都有“窃取”的意思,但steal强调 “偷偷地或悄悄地趁人不注意时窃取”,而rob则强调“通过武力明目张胆地盗窃或抢劫”。Steal这一动作的执行者应该是thief(小偷),而rob的动作执行者却是robber(强盗)。因为本句的主语是the thieves,所以选b。
11. The detectives waited inside the main building. This was the ______ building.
a. most important b. smallest c. first d. greatest
选 a
本句是要解释前一句中的the main building(主楼),b. smallest(最小的);c. first(第一);d. greatest(最伟大的)这3个选择都不符合词义,只有a. most important(最重要的)意思与 the main意思最接近,所以应该选a。
12. Someone had filled the parcel with stones and sand. It was ______ stones and sand.
a. full with b. full of c. full by d. full in
选 b
本句如果选a. full with,c. full by,d. full in 都有语法错误,full 只能同of连用,表示“充满……的”, 因此选b. full of。
