Look , dark clouds are gathering. It is ________to rain.
A.possiblyB.probablyC.likelyD.perhaps
C

试题分析:probably,possibly,perhaps都是副词,均不能作表语。likely为形容词,可作表语,此题用的句型是be likely to…意为“有可能要……”。题意为“看,乌云密集,很有可能快要下雨了”。故正确答案为C。
温馨提醒:probably指“多半”,其可能性超过一半; perhaps和maybe指“或许”,其可能性大致为一半; possibly仅指“也许”“有可能”,其可能性低于一半。例如:
Probably he will succeed.他很可能会成功。
Perhaps〔maybe〕 he will succeed.他也许会成功。
He will possibly succeed.他有可能成功。
2.maybe比perhaps更口语化,且要用于句首; perhaps可用于句末、句中、句首; probably多用于句中。
3.maybe和possibly可用于礼貌的建议或请求,另三个词无此义。例如: Could you possibly lend me 1000 yuan ?你能借给我1000元钱吗?
点评:本题难度适中。同义词辨析主要从词义、色彩、用法三个方面来考虑。一、词义包括词义范围的大小,词义的侧重点,词义的轻重等。二、从色彩方面辨析包括感情色彩和文体色彩。三、从语法方面辨析包括语法的特性,适用对象,搭配关系等。
多年来,高考中对“实词”的考查,侧重于对同义词、近义词的辨析及其选择使用。
即学即练:Could you ______ take over the post?
A. possibly    B. probably   C. likely   D. perhaps
解析:A。句意:你能接任这个职位吗?
