________ two exams to worry about, I have to work really hard this weekend.
A. With B. Besides C. As for D. Because of
該題考查介詞用法。該題題意:由于有兩次考試讓我操心,我本周末必須用功學(xué)習(xí)。Besides (除了……還)及As for(至于,關(guān)于)皆不符合題意要求,應(yīng)排除。D項(xiàng)為短語介詞,其后須接名詞、代詞或動(dòng)名詞,在此,句法結(jié)構(gòu)有誤,也不可選。選擇A項(xiàng)可構(gòu)成"with+復(fù)合賓語”結(jié)構(gòu)。答案:A
14. Listen to me young man---remember the day when we left you in charge? (p22) 聽我說年輕人——還記得我們托付你掌管家務(wù)的那一天嗎?
remember…? 相當(dāng)于Do you still remember…? 注意讀時(shí)句尾用升調(diào),表示疑問語氣。when在此引導(dǎo)定語從句,修飾表示時(shí)間的名詞day,when在定語從句中作時(shí)間狀語,也可換為on which。

Note: leave也可用于leave sb.to do結(jié)構(gòu),表示“讓某人處理某事”,即to do形式表達(dá)的是主語有意識(shí)的目的。而用doing作賓補(bǔ)時(shí),doing形式表達(dá)的不一定是主語要達(dá)到的目的。

①I thought you were in Beijing.
②I didn't know you were coming.
a person與an adult為同位關(guān)系。from whom…為介詞from提前的定語從句,修飾先行詞person。
