5.Frankly speaking, I’d rather you__________________(不采用任何措施)about it for the time being.
答案:
1. So far as I know/As far as I know
(本题考查固定用法so/as as sb knows, 据某人所知)
2. too old to enjoy a Christmas stocking
(本题考查too…to…的句型,表示“太…以至于不能…”,还考查enjoy一词的用法,enjoy sth 表示“享受某事带来的乐趣”)
3. They were hardly ever parted
(本题主要考查否定词hardly考试365意为“几乎从来没有”,由于它没有置于句首,句子用正常语序即可,be parted 意为“分开”)
4. play important roles
(本题考查“play a part/role in doing sth”结构,表示“起着…作用,饰演…的角色”)
5. not to do anything /not to take any action
("would rather ”的否定形式是would rather not to do ,would rather 没有人称和数的变化。“采取措施”可译为"do something”或"take some action”)
