1.近年來越來越多的人開始加入各種健身俱樂部或健身中心。

2.人們健身的目的有哪些。

3.你的看法

參考答案

1.CC句意：我們沒有及時(shí)完成工作，既然你在那兒，你本可以幫助我們的。情態(tài)動詞題。該題考查的是情態(tài)動詞后面跟完成式的用法。couldhavedone表示本來能做而實(shí)際沒有做，有時(shí)用來提出委婉的批評或表示后悔；而musthavedone則表示對過去發(fā)生的事情進(jìn)行肯定的推測，意為一定，肯定。因此，根據(jù)句意應(yīng)該選擇C

2.B為了避免上下班高峰期，你早上不得不早點(diǎn)出發(fā)。

［考點(diǎn)］詞義辨析

【精析】Bsetaside:留出,不顧;setout:出發(fā),開始；setup:建立,開業(yè)；setin:開始,到來。根據(jù)句意可知，選B

4.A池塘被污染之前你常常在那兒游泳，不是嗎？

［考點(diǎn)］反意疑問句

【精析】Ausedtodosth.意為過去常常做某事，其反意疑問句部分應(yīng)借助于did。根據(jù)前肯定后否定的原則，反意疑問句應(yīng)用否定形式。故選A

7.A這些字非常小，你最好戴上眼鏡。

［考點(diǎn)］詞義辨析

35.Iprefertocommunicatewithmycustomersvia/throughemailratherthanbytelephone
