问题补充:
(·高考天津卷)I had hoped to take a holiday this year but I wasn’t able to .
A. get away
B. drop in
C. check out
D. hold on
答案:
(答案→)A. get away
B. drop in
C. check out
D. hold on
解析:选A。本题四个选项都是常见动词词组。get away脱身,逃离;外出度假;drop in顺便拜访;check out检查,核实;hold on坚持。根据but可知后面的wasn’t able to与前面的had hoped to take a holiday构成转折关系,故get away符合题意。本题句意为“我本希望今年去度假,但是没能去成”。
