—My cousin would like to risk _____ the weight-loss pills rather than _____ in a gym.
—Really? She must be mad.

A.to take; work out.B.to take; working out.
C.taking; working out.D.taking; work out.

D

解析试题分析:risk doing sth 冒险做某事 rather than而不…:在语法上要连接相同的成分,故与risk是并列的谓语,故选D。句意:我堂妹宁愿冒险吃减肥药也不愿在体育馆做锻炼。
考点:考察动词的搭配及rather than的用法
点评:rather than 经常用在\"平行结构\"里,即连接两个对等成分。如:I decided to write rather than telephone. 我决定写信而不打电话。英语中的固定短语,意思和用法各不相同,应多积累多记忆。

We left the camp the next day at 7 o’clock in the morning.We went north.However, around 10:00 a.m.our car got stuck in the sand! We spent about three hours trying to pull out the car without any progress.Finally, we decided to walk.As it was hard for an old man or a young boy to walk more than 40km in the desert, I decided to get help myself.I took a bottle of water with me and started to walk south alone.I knew the way well, but it was a long way in the sand.I walked more than four hours without stopping.When I felt so tired and thirsty, I stopped to rest.I drank all the water and slept for around two hours.

When I got up, it was dark.I continued to walk south.I was worried about my uncle and cousin.Suddenly, I met a Bedouin man who was riding his camel.He took me to his house.When I had had enough rest, I asked him to take me to the road where I found a car.It took me to the city to get help.I had one day to get back to my uncle and cousin.When I got back to them, they were so happy because I had gotten help and they were able to see me again.
