C. the thief being caught

選C。這句話的意思是:新證據(jù)的發(fā)現(xiàn)使得小偷束手就擒。to是介詞,后面接了動名詞的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu),the thief是動名詞的邏輯主語。

C. couldn’t have gone
D. mightn’t have gone
選A。本題考查“情態(tài)動詞+have done ”結(jié)構(gòu)的用。mustn’t have gone 是錯誤的表達,couldn’t have gone 和mightn’t have gone 雖然也有“本不應(yīng)該做卻做了”含義,但其語氣遠shouldn’t have gone 弱,且它們主要用來表示對過去是否發(fā)生某一行為進行推測。
7.______you don’t like him is none of my business.
A. What B. Who C. That D. Whether
選C。本句的謂語動詞是is,前面是一個主語從句; “you don’t like him”是一個意思完整的句子,從句不需要任何有詞義的連詞引導(dǎo),that只起連接作用,無詞義,所以選C。

A. a; 不填;the B. a; the; the
C. a; a; the D. the; 不填;不填
選A。as a rule(通常地)是固定詞組;在度量名詞前,表示付工資、賣、租等方式時,用the, 如paid by the hour (day, moth, piece…), sold by the yard (dozen, ton…),比較by weight (按重量)。
