A. merely B. mostly C. rarely D. nearly 答案: A
考点:考查副词词义辨析 解析:这道题可能会让一部分同学郁闷一小下。形近词的辨析历来是备受考试青睐的一种考法。乍一眼看上去,这四个词都是以ly结尾,又都是6个字母组成,实在难以辨识。此时的考生,需要冷静下来。分析这里的每 个副词分别是由哪个形容词变化而来,而其形容词的含义实际上和其副词的含义相差无几。“most”(大部分),所以“mostly”(大部分地,通常地); “near”(临近)“nearly”(几乎)= almost; rare(稀有的)“rarely”(很少地,几乎不);“mere”(仅仅,只 不过)“merely”(仅仅,只不过)。全句意思“我并没有责 怪任何人,我只是说类似这种错误是可以避免的”。

句意:我们只有100美元,他怎么也不够买一台新电脑的。
解析:考查副词用法。nowhere near是固定短语,意思是“差得远;远不及”,相当于一个形容词,enough做副词用,修饰形容词或副词时,应该放在被修饰词的后面。
