1. After having gone far, George did not want to turn back.
[A] enough [B] much [C] such [D] that
1.
[分析] 空格处填入的词修饰副词far。that可以作程度副词,相当于so,意为“那样,那么”,如:I can’t walk that far.(我走不了那么远。)enough修饰形容词或副词时,一般放在被修饰的词后面,表示“足够”,如:She runs fast enough to catch the bus.(她跑得够快,能赶上汽车。)much一般修饰(起形容词作用的)过去分词或形容词和副词的比较级,意为“非常,更加,很”,如:much needed/faster(急需的/快得多),它不能修饰副词far。such是不定代词,只修饰名词,不能修饰副词,意为“这样的,那样的,类似的”,如:such a person(这样一个人)。因此,本题只能选[D]that。
[句意] 走了那么远后,乔治不想回去了。
2. The business of each day, selling goods or shipping them,went quite smoothly.
[A] it being [B] be it [C] was it [D] it was
2.
[分析] 根据句意, selling goods or shipping them含有让步含义,在语法功能上这一部分在句中作状语。Whether it (he) be … or …意为“不管(不论)是……还是……”,表示让步,为虚拟语气的一种表示方法,如:Whether she be right or wrong, she will have my support. (不管她是对是错,我都会支持她。)该结构的省略形式为be it(he) … or …,即省略连接词whether,将be移到句首,构成倒装结构,如:Be it raining or blowing, he never came late.(不管是刮风还是下雨,他从不迟到。)因此,[B]项正确,be it selling goods or shipping them意为“不管是售货还是运输”。
[句意] 每一天的买卖,不管是售货还是运输,都进行得很顺利 。
3. of the burden of ice, the balloon climbed up and drifted to the South.
[A] To be free [B] Freeing [C] To free [D] Freed
3.
[分析] free既可以作形容词,又可以作动词。作形容词时,free of sth.意为“不含(有害物)的,不受……伤害(或影响等的)”,如:free of artificial colors/doubt(不含人工色素/不怀疑)。四个选项中,[A]项中的free是形容词,用在be动词后作表语,但是不定式结构表将来,不符合句意,应排除。free作动词时,固定用法为free sb./sth. from/of sth.意为“解除,去除,清除”,如:These exercises help free the body of tension.(这些锻炼可使紧张的身体放松。)本句中的主语是the balloon,它是动词free的受动者,即“被解除(负担)”,因此作状语时需要用过去分词表被动,[D]项正确。整个分词结构相当于After the balloon was freed of the burden of ice。
[句意] 去掉冰的重负后,气球升向高空并向南飘去。
