resign.

A.knows B.know C.have known D.am to know

思路解析：本题考查主谓一致。当主语后接 but结构时，谓语动词应与这些结构前的主语保持一致，所以选择A。

绿色通道：but/as well as/no less than/with/along with/together with/rather than/like/unlike/besides等连词在句子里是个介词，主语应该以前面的连词为主，所以主语应该是 but等连词前面的词。

例7 I saw his namein larger letters.

A.sign B.signing C.signed D.to sign

思路解析：本题考查宾语补足语的用法。谓语动词see后面可以接带有分词、不定式（不含to）的复合结构，宾补用现在分词，表示动作正在进行，接过去分词表示一个被动完成的动作，see后面接不定式时，不定式的to 要去掉。根据句意可知名字是被签的，所以选择C。

绿色通道：作为宾语复合结构的考查，下面的单词需要特殊的宾语复合结构:listen to,hear,let,have,make,see,look at,watch,observe,notice。即两"听"、三"让"、五个"看"。

例8 The two drivers could do nothing but ________ the truck.

A.take turns to drive B.drive by turns

C.to take turn to drive D.to drive by turn

思路解析：此题考查两个语言点can do nothing but do sth.和take turns to do sth.的用法。前者意思是"只能做某事"，后者意思是"轮流做某事"，都是固定搭配，故选择A。

黑色陷阱：容易误选C或B项。在固定句形can do nothing but do sth.中，如果动词是除do以外的其他动词的时候，前面要有不定式符号to。

绿色通道：在多个语言知识放在一起考查中，全面考虑备选项的准确性的同时，要注意表达形式的多样性，如果题干改成The two dirvers could do nothing but the truck .就可以选择B。

例9 -Go for a picnic this weekend，OK？

-________.I love getting close to nature.

A.I couldn't agree more B.I'm afraid not

C.I believe not D.I don't think so

思路解析：本题考查交际用语的表达形式和副词比较等级的否定形式表示最高级，同时表达肯定，意为"没有比......更......；没有像......一样的"。I couldn't agree more.是表示同意对方意见的答语，意思是"没有比这更使我同意的了"。其他三个选项都表示否定，与 I love getting close to nature矛盾。故选择A。
