Question

Robert failed to seek a job for his poor education, though he is _______ to get one to support his family.

A．wanting

B．looking forward

C．fighting

D．dying

Answer 1

D

試題分析：句意：羅伯特因為沒有受到良好的教育而沒有找到工作，盡管他渴望得到一份工作來養(yǎng)家。Fight斗爭；want當(dāng)想要講時，不能用進(jìn)行時；look forward to+doing盼望做某事；be dying to do渴望做某事。
點評：本題難度適中。動詞短語是高考常考的內(nèi)容，需要考生平時的積累。不僅熟記它們的意義還要掌握它們的用法及區(qū)別。這里考生容易誤選B。
即學(xué)即練: I'm _______ to hearing from you soon.
A. wanting        B. looking forward    C. fighting         D. dying
解析：B。句意：望早日回信。
