2021高考英語一輪復習Unit 20-Unit 20
a.means b.to mean c.meaning d.meant提示:現在分詞短語作定語，等于定語從句which means。答案:c(2)—why haven’t you bought any butter?—i ________ to but i forgot about it.a.liked b.wished c.meant d.expected提示: 本題考查根據語境和句意使用動詞的能力。答語中to后省略了buy，依據but判斷答語兩句為轉折關系，所以后文說“忘了”,前文一定是說“打算買”。能表達此意的只有c項，mean to do意為“有……的意圖;打算”。答案:c2.regret講: v. & n.對……惋惜；遺憾；抱歉；后悔；遺憾；失望例：he regretted having been careless.=i regret that he had been careless.他對于自己的粗心大意感到懊悔。i regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you employment.我遺憾地通知你，我們不能雇用你。much to my regret,i must leave you now.我很遺憾地告訴你，我現在要離開了。we heard with regret that you were not successful in our plan.聽到你的計劃不能順利進行，我們覺得很可惜。鏈接·提示 (1)regret to do對要做的某事感到遺憾 (2)regret doing對做過的事遺憾、后悔 (3)i regret(to say)that...我很遺憾……；很抱歉…… (4)it is to be regretted that...使人遺憾的是……；真可惜……練：—you were brave enough to raise objections at the meeting.—well,now i regret ________ that.a.to do b.to be doing c.to doing d.having done提示:從上文“you were brave”的時態看，他已做過。故選d。答案:d3.inspire講:inspire v.鼓舞；激勵；引發；賦予……靈感主要用法有inspire sb./inspire sb.to sth./inspire sb.to do sth./inspire sth.in sb./inspire sb.with sth.。例：we were inspired by his speech.我們為他的演說所激勵。his noble example inspired the rest of us to greater efforts.他那高尚的榜樣激發我們大家更加努力。his friend’s words inspired him to try again.他朋友的話使他振奮起來再試一次。the lake district scenery inspired wordsworth to write his greatest poetry.
