Evidence has been found through years of study that children’s early sleeping problems are _______ to continue when they grow up.
A.likelyB.possibleC.probableD.narrowly
A

试题分析:句意:经过多年的研究证据表明孩子们早期的睡眠问题很有可能当他们长大后仍会继续存在。sb/sth be likely to do sth某人或物很可能做某事,固定结构,故选A.
点评:possible表示客观上潜在的可能性,也许实际发生的可能性并不大。probable表示有几分根据的推测,比possible表示的可能性大。likely强调表面上看来有可能。作为表语时只有likely可以以人作为主语,并且有be likely to do sth 的固定句型,其余两个一般构成it is possible/probable that +从句的句型。
