39、dnt believe my lucknot only did I my photo taken with him, but he signed his name on my shirt!解析:考查非谓语动词。此处是非谓语动词短语作补语,make和被修饰的名词crew之间是逻辑上的主动关系,所以应用现在分词形式。考查名同。one of后该接可数名词的复数形式,表示“中的一个”。考查连词。逗号前后不是转折关系,而是因果或者顺承关系。考查代记。炉t意为“去取(或带来)”,是及物动词,其后应该接代词it,指代my camera。考查动词的时。根据时间状语by the timeI got back可知,此处应该用过去完成时。 考查副词。anywhere用于否定句时表示全部否定,符合语境. everywhere和否定词连用时表示部分否定,不符合语境。考査形容词。disappointing用来形容事物;disappointed用来形容人。 此处表示“我感到非常失望”。考查介词。walk out of a building意为“从一栋楼里走出来”。考查冠词。in the front of意为“在(内部)的前面”;in front of意为“在(外部)的前面”。 考査谓语动词。此处为部分倒装,为一般过去时,把助动词did提到主语之前时,谓语动词应该用原形。
