1.Nobody could ________ it when the bull broke into the shop and attacked two customers with its horns.The other just hurried away from it.
A.make B.help C.aid D.assist
答案 B [考查动词的用法。can/could(not)help it“ (不)能防止或避免某事物” 。此处相当于can/could(not)prevent or avoid sth,又如:Can I help it if people don't read the instructions?人们不看使用说明,我又有什么办法?]
2.The two presidents agree with each other on the whole,but much remains ________ at the following meeting.
A.discussing B.discussed
C.to discuss D.to be discussed
答案 D [remain 是连系动词,相当于be动词,该句的主语much与discuss存在着被动关系,且由后面的“at the following meeting”知道该动作是将要发生的,故选D。]
