56. They would regret for ________ a vote to a man of vision.
A. not giving B. giving not C. having not given D. not to give
【答案】A.
【解析】非谓语动词。for为介词,其后应接动名词。regret for doing sth.意为“因做了某事而后悔”,其否定形式是在动名词之前加not,故选A。
57. It is no use ________ over spilt milk.
A. crying B. to cry C. cry D. cries
【答案】A.
【解析】非谓语动词。在“It is no use/good/help... + doing”结构中, It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动名词短语。It is no good/use doing sth.意为“做某事没有好处/用处”。故选A。
58. In the exam, the ________ you are, the ________ mistakes you will make.
A. carefully; little B. more careful; less
C. more carefully; fewest D. more careful; fewer
【答案】D.
【解析】比较级。“the +比较级…,the +比较级…”为固定用法,意为“越……,越……”。careful的比较级是more careful;mistake为可数名词,所以应用few来修饰,其比较级是fewer,故选D。
59. It seemed only seconds ________ the big fire broke out.
A. when B. till C. after D. before
【答案】D.
【解析】词义辨析。when:当……时;till:直到;after:在……之后;before:在……之前。根据句意“仅仅几秒钟大火就蔓延开了(爆发)”可知,选D。
60. When father was young, he ________ from morning till night.
