1、Unit 3Back to the past.单项填空1He felt very sad that though he worked very _indeed,he was not able to jump _.Ahardly;high Bhard;highChardly;highly Dhard;highly答案B有些考生可能会认为动词后面应用副词修饰,而形容词后面加ly就成副词了,于是错选A、C或D。其实,hard和high都既可作形容词,也可作副词。hard作形容词时意为“坚硬的;难懂的”,作副词时,意为“努力地;猛烈地”;而hardly是副词,意为“几乎不”;high作形容词时,意为“
