这题应该是C,但是有点搞不清,我问过别人,以下是回答:
问:---------
58. I found myself ________ to the spot where the experiment was being performed whenever I had some time to spare.
A) draws B) drawing C) drawn D) drew
D is correct.
I think Option C would be correct. Why do we have to choose D?
And why he was close to the spot when he was free, it implies he would go up there in spite of oneself when he got free time?
Could you help me, thanks in advance.
答1----------
Re: I found myself drew to
I don't think that D is correct. It must be an error; the correct answer, as you suggest, is C.
To be drawn to something is to be compelled to do it or to want to go towards it; he found that he wanted to be there, so he went there when he had a chance
答2------------
Re: I found myself drew to
To be drawn to the spot.
Drew is the past participle of draw. You can draw yourself to the spot; you can have drew yourself to the spot (nobody uses this); you were drawn to the spot (by an imaginary force).
To me the distinction is clear. What do others think?
答3-----------
Re: I found myself drew to
But "drew" has to be a past particple of "draw". In this context we can clearly say: "The Rolling Stones drew a large audience". The alternative sort of construct would be "A large audience was drawn to the Rolling Stones".
61. President Banda’s background as a doctor has given him ________ into the medical problem that face the country.
A) a view B) a vision C) an insight D) a sight
C:Banda总统曾今是位医生的背景让他了解到了国家当前面临的医疗问题.
view==观点或者是视图 vision==脑中浮现的一种景象 sight==你眼睛看到的一定范围里的东西 insight字典里写着是:The capacity to discern the true nature of a situation; penetration.看到某种情况真实本质的能力.所以我觉得应该是insight.
