Question

（江蘇省海安市2009學年度高三摸底，27）---Your sister nearly _______ all her spare time to her study during the three years.

----That’s right， or she ________ the first place in her school in the College Entrance Examination.

A. devoted; wouldn’t have taken                B. spent; wouldn’t have taken

C. had devoted; hadn’t taken                          D. had spent; couldn’t take

Answer 1

A

解析:

devote … to 為固定搭配，因此第一個空應從AC選。Or 翻譯成“否則，要不然”，相當于otherwise，引起句子運用虛擬語氣，主句用 would have done。
