1. The machine needs a complete ____ since it has been in use for over ten years.答案说空格处用mending,但是renovating不是有“修缮”的意思吗,这样不是更恰当?
2. The movement of the moon conveniently provided the unit of month, which was _____ from one new moon to the next. 空格处答案是reckoned,如果填measured合适吗?
3. The mayor is a woman with great _____ and therefore deserves our political and financial support. 空格处答案是integrity,如果用intention,表示“很好的想法或愿望”可不可以?
4. She felt suitably humble just as she _____ when he had first taken a good look at her himself, hair waved and golden, nails red and pointed. 空格处答案为had,为什么不用had felt?
2.可以看一下英文的解释
measure: find the size, length, volume, etc of sth by comparing it with a standard unit
reckon:find out ( the quantity, number, cost, etc) by using numbers
在这个题目里,one new moon to the next更符合那个quantity或者是number,所以用reckoned更合适
