參考答案：C略15.Little_____whatyousaid.Iwishyouhadrepeatedit.A.didunderstand

B.IunderstoodC.Ididunderstand

D.haveIunderstood參考答案：Alittle意為“一點兒”通常用來表示否定的意思，在本題當中，little用于句首則該句話要進行部分倒裝，也就是半倒裝，需要將陳述語序改為疑問語序，BC選項排除，由于該題后半部分“Iwishyouhadrepeatedit.”是對于過去的虛擬，故本題中的動作是發(fā)生在過去，故該句話為一般過去時，故本題選擇A選項。16.Heiseasytosatisfy.Evenasmallsuccesswillgivehimasenseof_______.A.responsibility

B.achievement

C.humour
