答案
小题1:interviewed 小题2:and 小题3:neither /nor /or 小题4:whoever 小题5:with 小题6:succeeded 小题7:biggest 小题8:an 小题9:curiously 小题10:what |
解析
试题分析: 小题1:interviewed 这里应填谓语动词的过去时,HR manager: 人力资源部经理。 小题2:and “Do sth., and sb./sth. will…”是一个常见句型,例如:Use your head, and you’ll find a way. 小题3:neither /nor /or 若上句是否定句,则后一句常用neither或nor表示“也不,也没有”。 另外,在否定句中的并列连词不用and多用or。 小题4:whoever 在这里作主语引导主语从句,整句意思是“凡是不存在的人都不能拥有这份工作。” 小题5:with with no hope at all=" without" any hope: 不怀任何希望。 小题6:succeeded 此处缺少谓语动词。 小题7:biggest 这里应该用形容词的最高级形式,在one of the + 形容词+名词的结构里,形容词应是最高级形式,例如:She is one of the most diligent students in our class. 小题8:an an insurance broker:一个保险经纪人 小题9:curiously 这里应填副词作状语修饰动词replied。 小题10:what 引导宾语从句,在从句中作have been的表语。整个宾语从句用了虚拟语气,意思是:“要是你有email,那你又该成了什么样的人哪?” |
