答案

小题1:interviewed  

小题2:and   

小题3:neither /nor /or 

小题4:whoever   

小题5:with

小题6:succeeded 

小题7:biggest   

小题8:an    

小题9:curiously   

小题10:what 

题目分析:

小题1:interviewed 这里应填谓语动词的过去时,HR manager: 人力资源部经理。 

小题2:and  “Do sth., and sb./sth. will…”是一个常见句型,例如:Use your head, and you’ll find a way.

小题3:neither /nor /or 若上句是否定句,则后一句常用neither或nor表示“也不,也没有”。 另外,在否定句中的并列连词不用and多用or。

小题4:whoever 在这里作主语引导主语从句,整句意思是“凡是不存在的人都不能拥有这份工作。” 

小题5:with  with no hope at all=" without" any hope: 不怀任何希望。

小题6:succeeded 此处缺少谓语动词。

小题7:biggest 这里应该用形容词的最高级形式,在one of the + 形容词+名词的结构里,形容词应是最高级形式,例如:She is one of the most diligent students in our class.

小题8:an  an insurance broker:一个保险经纪人

小题9:curiously 这里应填副词作状语修饰动词replied。

小题10:what 引导宾语从句,在从句中作have been的表语。整个宾语从句用了虚拟语气,意思是:“要是你有email,那你又该成了什么样的人哪?”
