题目内容
Coffee is ready. How nice it ________! Would you like some?
- A.feels
- B.smells
- C.sounds
- D.looks
上面几个连系动词都是表示存在状态的，不是表示变化的连系动词。虽然他们的后面都接形容词，但它们所表示的意义不同。feel意为“感觉到……”；sound“听起来似乎……”；look“看起来……”；smell“闻起来，嗅到……”。此句前面说“咖啡已煮好了。”后句强调“煮好的咖啡散发出来的气味使人闻起来很香”。依题意选择smells最贴切。
---Yummy! The coffee is good.

| A．good | B．better | C．best | D．the best |
