Question

______ I failed in English a third time, I had no doubt about my gift for foreign languages.

A．By the time

B．Until

C．After

D．Unless

Answer 1

B

試題分析：考查連詞辨析。A到…時為止；not…until直到…才；after在…后；unless除非，如果…不…；本題只是把until的句子提前到句首了。句意：直到我又一次英語考試不及格，我才懷疑我學習語言的能力。正常語序應該為：I had no doubt about my gift for foreign languages until I failed in English a third time.
點評：not…until…直到…才…在使用時要注意其中的not否定的形式可以用其它的一些方式表達出來。如hardly, no等等。
