A. satisfying B. satisfied C. satisfaction D. satisfy
答案为C。
[解析]句中from是介词,后接名词。译文:他所做的事离满意还差得远。satisfactory是形容词,意思是“令人满意的”;satisfied是过去分词,可作为形容词使用,意思是“感到满意的”;satisfy是动词,意思是“使……满意”。
例4、As we joined the big crowd I got_________ from my friends.
A. separated B. spared C. lost D. missed

例5、We didn't plan our art exhibition like that but it_________ very well.
A. worked out B. tried out C. went on D. carried on
答案为A。
[解析]先排除B和D,因为try out(实验),carry on(实行)与exhibition之间是被动关系;而go on虽有“进行,进展”之意,但这里强调的是计划和结果的关系,work out=turn out"(最后)显得"。译文:我们没有那样计划我们的艺术展览,但结果却很好。此题应为一表结果的短语。
例6、-Do you think the Stars will beat the Bulls?
-Yes. They have better players, so I ________them to win.

答案为C。
[解析]expect“期望”,此处意思是“我希望他们赢”。hope虽然有“希望”的意思,但后面不接动词不定式作宾补。want的意思是“想”,表示个人的欲望;prefer的意思是“宁愿;更喜欢”,常构成prefer to do sth.; prefer doing sth. to doing sth.; prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.等短语。I prefer them to win.的意思是“我宁愿他们赢。”
例7、Nick is looking for another job because he feels that nothing he does ________ his boss.
A. serves B. satisfies C. promises D. supports

例9、His mother had thought it would be good for his character to ________ from home and earn some money on his own.
A. run away B. take away C. keep away D. get away
答案为D。
[解析]on one's own“独立地”;run away from“逃跑”;take way“拿走”。get away from home的意思是“离开家”。译文:他母亲原本认为他离开家自己赚钱对锻炼他的性格有好处。
例10、-Mummy, can I put the peaches in the cupboard?
-No,dear. They don't ________ well. Put them in the fridge instead.
A. keep B. fit C. get D. last
答案为A。
[解析]根据句子中两个表示地点的名词cupboard 和fridge 可以看出,是要把peaches保存好,所以要选keep“保存”。fit的意思是“安装”;get的意思是“得到;获得”;last的意思是“持续”,后常接表示时间的词,如:last two hours持续了两小时等。
