解析: burn意为“燃烧”,词形变化为burn→burnt→burnt或burn→burned→burned。本题中的get burnt用主动表示被动含义,句意为:木头如果离火太近就会燃烧起来的。故选B。 |
提示:
|
启示: get作连系动词,意为“变为,变得,成为”,常接形容词等,如:get married (to sb.) (与某人) 结婚。注意:get与过去分词连用,与被动结构相似,一般看作系表结构,但有时这种结构有被动含义,即形式主动,实为被动。 |

Henry was a carpenter(木匠)of our village. Once I asked him to make a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I arrived home that evening, Henry was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for his work.. My wife said to me, quietly,“That’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said loudly, "It's a beautiful table,dear,isn't it?" "I won't decide about that until I see that bill.” I said.
Henry laughed and gave me his bill for the work. It said:
BILL
One dining table June 10,1995
Cost of wood 17.00
Paint(油漆) 1.50
Work,8 hours(1 an hour) 8.00
Total(总计) 36.50
When I was looking at the bill,Henry said,"It’s been a fine day,hasn’t it?” “ Quite sunny.” "Yes,”I said. "I’m glad it is only the 10th of June.” "Me too,” said Henry, "You wait--it'll be a bit hotter by the end of the month.” "Yes. Hotter--and more expensive. Dining tables will be 20 more expensive on June 30th,won't they,Henry?”
Henry looked hard at me for half a minute. There was a little smile in his two blue eyes. I gave his bill back to him. "If it isn't too much trouble,Henry,”I said,"Please add it up again. You can forget the date.”
I paid him 26. 50 and he was happy to get it.
