请看:They weren’t a particularly good team, but they refused to give in and _________ defeat.A. accept B. accepted C. accepting D. to have accepted
容易误选B,误认为 accepted ,误认为与谓语 refused 并列。其实,最佳答案为A,动词 accept 与 give 并列。请看类例:
(1) Mother told Jim to watch the milk until it boiled and then _________ off the gas.A. turn t 304.5pt">B. turning C. turned D. having turned答案为A,turn off the gas 与 watch the milk until it boiled 并列。 (2)He just does what he pleases and never _________ about anyone else. A. think B. thinks C. thinking D. thought答案选B,thinks 与前面的 does 为并列谓语,同用一般现在时。(3)I don’t know whether to stay in teaching or _________ another job. A. trying getting B. to try to get C. trying to get D. try get答案选B,to stay in teaching 与to try to get another job 为两个并列的选择成分,故同用不定式。另外比较:try to do sth=设法做某事,try doing sth=做某事看看有何效果。
