to

29.
of改为over。have
an
advantage
over
sb表示“对……有优势”。
30.
to改为in。in
one’s
direction表示“朝……方向”。
31.
on改为to。日本和中国隔海相望，因此这里应用to表示“在……方向上”，但不接壤。
32.
to改为with。agree
with可以与food,
climate等词连用表示“气候、食物适应某人”。
33.
in改为on。on
the
way在路上；in
the
way表示“妨碍，挡路”。
34.
with改为by。keep
in
touch
with
sb表示“和某人取得联系”；by
doing表示方式。
35.
in改为against。against这里表示“以……为背景；在……衬托下”。

in
on
sb表示“顺便走访某人”；drop
in
at

for改为by。句意：幸运的是，子弹勉强错过上尉，差了一英寸。by后接数字，表示相差。
38.
among改为between。between表示“两者之间”；among
“在……之间(三者及以上)”。“在课间播放怡人的音乐”应该是三者以上中两两之间仍然用between。
39.

sth.
of
sb.是固定搭配，表示“指望某人某事”。

【小题狂练三】在空白处填入一个适当的单词。
It
was
so
nice
an
afternoon
that
I
decided
to
go
for
a
little
walk
41
my
new
boots
—
the
ones
I
had
seen
advertised
on
TV
42
“the
world’s
best
boots”.
Well,
43
theory,
yes,
they
were
very
comfortable
boots
but
I
soon
found
that
in
fact
they
gave
me
blisters.
In
general
I
do
enjoy
walking,
but
at
that
moment
all
I
wanted
was
rest
and
refreshment,
in
other
words,
I
needed
to
sit
down,
have
a
drink
and
go
home
44
the
bus.
The
last
bus
home
was
in
half
an
hour
and
I
was
far
45
the
bus
stop
so
I
would
have
to
get
there
46
a
hurry.
At
last
I
got
to
the
bus
stop
just
in
time
47
a
drink
at
the
pub
before
the
bus
came.
I
limped
to
the
bus
stop
in
the
hope
48
getting
on.
But
I
was
out
of
luck
because
the
bus
was
full
up
—
not
even
standing
room!
I
knew
I
would
never
make
it
home
on
foot
and
I
was
49
the
point
of
returning
to
the
pub
to
drown
my
sorrows
when
another
bus
came
round
the
corner,
completely
empty.
I
got
on,
sat
by
myself
at
the
back
and
started
to
feel
50
peace
with
the
world
again
as
I
took
off
my
boots!
