Awork BwriteCsmile Dread答案與解析：B根據(jù)空后的and have been on the bestsellers list for the last two months可知，在過(guò)去的兩個(gè)月一直在暢銷書榜單上，因此，他在辭去律師工作后便開始寫作(write)。故選B項(xiàng)。18.

She brings us a lot of fun and happiness._答案：fort前加afort表示“舒適；舒服；安慰”講時(shí)為不可數(shù)名詞，作“令人安慰的人或事”講時(shí)為可數(shù)名詞，即此處為“抽象名詞具體化”的用法。2Occupying with various research projects all day, he was tired out._答案：OccupyingOccupied(be) occupied with . “忙著做；忙于某事物”，形容詞短語(yǔ)在句中作狀語(yǔ)。3Since he arrived in Beijing, he has adjusted to eat the northern food gradually._答案：eateating該詞組中的to為介詞，故后接名詞或動(dòng)名詞。adjust to (doing) sth. “適應(yīng)(做)某事”。4The question that many students are puzzled about is how improve their oral English._答案：how后加to“特殊疑問(wèn)詞to do不定式短語(yǔ)”在該句中作表語(yǔ)。5Charlie chaplin is acknowledged of one of the most outstanding edians in the history of cinema._答案：第一個(gè)ofasbe acknowledged as . “被公認(rèn)為/被認(rèn)為是”。
