Now we could not do anything but _______ for him here.

A.waited            B.waiting            C.to wait            D.wait

 

【答案】

D

【解析】

试题分析:在do nothing/anything/everything +but/except/other than(除了)这三个词前面有行为动词do的任何形式时那么三者后面跟动词不定式时其前的to 省略。如果谓语动词不是“do nothing,anything,everything”,那么but/except/other than所跟的不定式则仍须带to。

考点:考查动词不定式的用法。

点评:本题难度适中。命题者在于考查学生容易出错点,考生一看空格前是介词就用动词的动名词形式,因此需要考生记住一些特例,这也是命题人经常出题的地方。

即学即练:He did nothing ______.

A. worked    B. work ing    C. to work   D. work

解析:D 句意:除了工作他什么都不干。

A
It was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bicycle.As Christmas drew nearer,her desire for a bicycle seemed to fade,or so we thought.We bought the latest rages,Baby-Sitter’s Club dolls,and a doll house.Then,much to our surprise。on December 23rd,she said that she“really wanted a bike more than anything else”.
It was just too late,what with all the details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying last-minute gifts,to take the time to select the“right bike”for our little girl.So here we were---Christmas Eve around 9:00 P.M,with Almie and her six-year-old brother,Dylan,nested snug in their beds.Now we could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child.“What if I make a little bicycle out of clay(a kind of earth)and write a note that she could trade the clay model in for a real bike?” her dad asked.“This is an expensive item and she is‘such a big girl’,and it would be much better for her to pick it out.”So he spent the next four hours painstakingly working with clay to make a tiny bike.
On Christmas morning,we were excited for Almie to open the little heart-shaped package with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note.Finally,she opened it and read the note aloud.“Does this mean that I trade in this bike that Daddy made me for a real one?”Beaming,I said,“Yes.”Almie had tears in her eyes when she replied.“I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me.I’d rather keep this than get a real bike.”At that moment,we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet!

C.The girl never lost her desire for a bike.
D.The parents paid little attention to the daughter’s desire for a bike.
43..Why did Dad make the clay bicycle?
A.Because he wanted to buy a real one,but he had no money.

根据文章,从下框A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项,选择中有一项为多余。

A.A careful analysis biologically
B.What is global warming?
C.Solution to the terrifying result
D.Greater danger of extinction
E.Many shocking things were found.
F.A shocking report
 
【小题1】
The earth is getting warmer. People burn coal, oil and gas and this produces carbon dioxide, methane(沼气)and nitrous oxide. These gases, called “greenhouse gases”, prevent the heat of the sun from leaving the earth’s upper atmosphere and this makes the earth warmer
【小题2】
A few weeks ago a group of scientists produced a report about global warming and the natural world. They wanted to find out if global warming was dangerous for plants and animals. According to what they found, the scientists say that during the next 50 years about 25% of land animals and plants will become extinct. More than a million plant and animal species will be extinct by 2050.
【小题3】
More than 10% of all plants and animals will become extinct. It is too late to save many plants and animals because of the greenhouse gases that are already in the atmosphere. But the scientists say if we control greenhouse gases now, we could save many more plant and animals from extinction.
【小题4】
The scientists studied some regions of the world with a very rich biology. These were Europe, Australia, Central and South America, and South Africa. Their studies showed that species living in mountainous areas had a better chance of survival because they could move uphill, to get cooler. In flat areas, such as deserts, plants and animals would have to move a very long distance to get cooler, so they are in grater danger of extinction.
【小题5】
The scientists found that half of the 24 species of butterflies they studied in Australia would soon become extinct. 60% of the species in the Kruger National Park in South Africa would also die out, and more than 100% of the 300 South Africa plant species they studied would also become extinct. One of the plants in danger of extinction is the national flower of South Africa, the King Protea. They studied 163 tree species in the Cerrado region of Brazil and found that 70 would become extinct. Many of the plants and trees that live in the region live nowhere else in the world. In Mexico, they studied 1,870 species and found that more than 30% of these were in danger of extinction.
