If it is good, you cannot keep it _ long; it bad; you cannot get rid of it _early.A. too; very B. so; so C. too; too D. very; too答: 答案: A弄清so, very, too作副词用在意义上的区别, 是正确答题的关键:so-to such a (great) degree强调达到某种程度, “如此” “这么, 那么(以致)”的意思;ve

26、意义.再看看句子所表达的意义, 这里用have broken down更恰当.35 turn out后面可接adv. 例如:Everything turned out well. turn out 后面还可接adj. 例如:The boy turned out successful after all.请问老师这两种说法不矛盾吗? 什么时候接adv什么时候接adj?答: 这两种说法不矛盾. 前句中副词well修饰动词短语turn out (here “turn out” means “come out”); 后句中turn out是 “结果(是)、原来（是）、证明（是）”, 作这个意义讲时,
