Question

【题目】 When life gets hard and you want to give up, remember that life is full of ups and downs, and without the downs, the ups ________ nothing.

A. would mean B. would have meant

C. will mean D. had meant

Answer 1

【答案】A

【解析】考查虚拟语气。句意：当生活变得艰难你想放弃的时候，记住生活中充满了起起落落，如果没有了落起也就无任何意义。此题考查的是与现在事实相反的虚拟语气，without the downs=if there weren’t the downs，故用A适合。
