2.In the dark forests ________, some large enough to hold several English towns.
A.stand many lakes B.lie many lakes
C.many lakes lie D.many lakes stand
解析:
stand意为“矗立着”,lie意为“存在”,在森林中有湖。不用stand因而排除A、D两项。B答案是倒装句。英语中为了强调而将表示地点的介词短语放在句首,主谓语采用完全倒装形式。又如:
On the top of the building flies a red flag. 楼顶上飘扬着一面红旗。
答案:B
3.—Tom is never late for work. Why is he absent today?
—Something ________ to him.

should have done意为“本该做某事,但是没有做”;could have done意为“可能做某事”;must have done意为“一定做了某事”,对过去发生事情的肯定推测。句意为:
—汤姆从不迟到,今天怎么没来?
—他肯定发生了什么事情。
