25、ea考查冠词。这里指“一家跨国公司”,而不是特指,因此用不定冠词。2hadhas考查时态。这里表达现在的结果,而过去完成时表达过去的过去,显然用在这里不合适。3meanmeans考查名词的单复数形式。mean意思是“意味着;意欲;打算”,而means单复数相同,意思是“办法”,这里表达“他尝试了各种可能的办法”。4去掉Because后的of考查连词。because of为介词短语,后面跟名词或v.ing,而because为连词,后面跟句子。5realreally考查副词。这里是really修饰形容词proud,而real为形容词,不可以修饰形容词。6givinggive考查非谓语动词。prom
26、ise to do sth.意思是“答应做某事”,to是不定式符号,后面跟动词原形。7untilwhen考查连词。promise为非延续性动词,因此在肯定句中不可以与until连用。这里表达“当暑假到来时”,因此用when。8notso考查语境。从I will be able to afford.可知,如果他给“我”钱,“我”就能去度假了,因此用so。9afford后加to考查动词用法。afford to do sth.为固定搭配,意思是“有能力去做某事”。10HowWhat考查感叹句的引导词。这里what修饰名词news,而how修饰形容词、副词。.书面表达(河北定兴模拟)假定你是李华,你校
