We ________ each other the best luck in the examination.
- A.hoped
- B.expected
- C.wished
- D.wanted
hope to do...“希望干……”;hope that...从句不用虚拟语气;hope for sth.。
关于hope,有两点要注意,一是不能说hope sb to do sth.,二是不能说I don't hope so.。若要表达“不希望这样”,要用句型I hope not.。expect主要是指“盼望、预料”等意义。同时其否定的简短回答可以用I don't expect so或I expect not.两种形式。其后的宾语从句不用虚拟语气。expect sth.; expect to do...; expect sb. to do...; expect that....。wish的句型搭配更
多。尤其是wish sb.+adj.和wish sb+n.是其他几个词没有的搭配形式。同时,其后接宾语从句时常常用虚拟语气。wish to do...; wish sb.to do...; wish sb.+n.; wish sb.+adj.; wish that...。want表示“想要、需要”之意,是一个常用词。want to do...; want sb. to do...; want sth.。
