Answer 1

【答案】

【1】used to

【2】both

【3】so that

【4】on sale

【5】managed

【解析】

【1】句意：杰伊习惯于下课后玩电脑游戏，但现在他宁愿复习功课。used to do意为“过去常常…”，要和另一个短语区分开，be used to doing sth.表示习惯于做某事或习惯于某事，to是介词，这里不是这个搭配，故填 used to。

【2】句意：我父亲和他的兄弟在国外学习，两者都现在在同一家公司工作。句中提到了两个人“我爸爸”和“我爸爸的兄弟”，表示两个都，两者都，用both即可，故填both。

【3】句意：我们的英语老师大声说话以至于最后一排的学生可以清楚地听到她的声音。这里so that引导目的状语从句，表示“以便,为了”，故填 so that。

【4】句意：据说新模型下个月将会销售。be on sale是正在销售 ，这里是说下个月模型就出售了，故填on sale。

【5】句意：该计划帮助穷人恢复了正常生活。太好了，我不知道他们究竟是怎么做成的。Manage有“做成（某事）; 应付（某事）”的意思，这里是在疑问对方是怎么做到的，这件事发生在过去，用一般过去时，故填managed。
