Question

【题目】Tom was not listening carefully, so he ________ to hear what the teacher said.

A.beganB.succeededC.failedD.came

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：Tom刚才没认真听，因此他没有听到老师说什么。

考查动词辨析。began开始；succeeded成功；failed失败；came来到。根据“Tom was not listening carefully…”可知Tom刚才没认真听，因此他没听到老师说什么。fail to do sth.表示“没能做某事”。故选C。
