选择题
—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．hadn’t devoted; hadn’t taken
D．hadn’t spent; couldn’t take
答案
答案：A
第一空考查devote和spend的区别，由后面介词to可知是devote，而且这句话是事实，所以用过去时，第二空是虚拟语气，因为这里or相当于Your sister nearly hadn’t devoted all her spare time to her study during the three years.所以主句用wouldn’t have taken这种虚拟形式。选A。
