答案与解析:
1. Few people do not complain about the tedium of their jobs
本题考查对形容词few和动词短语complain about的掌握。few作形容词时意为很少的,少数的,用来修饰可数名词复数,表示少得几乎没有。complain (to sb.) about sth.意为(向某人)抱怨某事。tedium沉闷,单调乏味,为不可数名词。
2. only to be told that she couldnt come by then
本题考查对only+不定式结构的掌握。only+不定式结构相当于一个结果状语,意为结果却...,表示事情的发展令人不快或与预料相反。被告之...表明不定式要用被动式(to be told)。that宾语从句作动词told的宾语,从句的时态应与主句一致(couldnt)。by then在此处指到将来的某个时候。
