高考英語單元知識點復習Unit 10
a.attended b.accepted c.received d.enjoyed
提示:本題通過語境考查動詞辨析。橫線后面的it起著關鍵性的作用,代替的應該是party,而不能是復數名詞invitations,所以使用attend,表示“參加晚會”。
答案:a
2.let down
講:該短語為及物動詞短語,主要義項有“不支持;使失望;(使)略勝一籌;美中不足;放下;放長;降低”。
例:i’m afraid she let us down badly.
很遺憾,她讓我們大失所望。
this machine won’t let you down.
你盡管放心,這臺機器不會出毛病。

a.let out b.took care

提示:本題考查短語動詞的辨析。從句子的意思分析,此處應該表示“偶然(accidently)透露出”,所以使用let out。
答案:a
句型
“介詞+which+動詞不定式”作定語
講:請觀察下面教材原句:
...and she had only $1.87 with which to buy jim a present.
……她只有一美元87美分用來給吉姆買禮物。
本句型為“介詞+which+動詞不定式”作定語,相當于介詞+關系代詞which引導的定語從句。本句可以改為:she had only $1.87 with which she could buy jim a present.
例:she had no time left in which to pack her things.
