nearby

1 went to the shop____to buy a pen.
A. near hereB. nearby
C. nearest D. near
Parse answer B.Sentence meaning: I went to a nearby store to buy a pen. Nearby (adj.) is postfixed when modifying nouns; near (adj.) is near, close, and is placed before nouns when modifying nouns. Near is used as a preposition or adverb and cannot be used together with the adverb here.Therefore, only B is suitable for the meaning of the question.

nearly almost
nearly almost
Nearly focuses on the insufficient part, and is generally used to modify words with positive meanings. After very, pretty, not, only nearly can be used. almost emphasizes that {1 point is close, and can be used in conjunction with words such as no, none, never, nothing, etc. for negative sentences; when used to modify words expressing affirmative meaning, it can be used interchangeably with nearly.

It is not___so easy as you think.
A. nearlyB. almostC. mostD. very
Parse answer A.Sentence meaning: It is not as easy as you think at all. not nearly+ by no means or far from, as "not at all", "far less than", "never".

necessary, necessary, z. (Often,, a 7.) Necessary crystal

unnecessary/necessarily required/need requires/needful necessary/demand requirements, requirements/require requires/required required/requirement needs things
In clauses in which it is the subject of the form, when necessary is the predicative, the real subject cannot use a gerund.When necessary is used as a predicate, if a clause is used as the real subject, the predicate verb of the clause should be added with the original form of the verb.Example: lt is necessary that he finish his work on time.He must finish his work on time.

neednecessary, need, need, must
The fence needs___but we can't do it until the coming fall.
A. to mend B. being mended
C. mended D. to be mended
Parse answer D.Sentence meaning: This question examines the usage of the verb need. When need is a substantive verb and its subject is a thing, the active form followed by the gerund expresses the passive form or directly uses the passive form of the infinitive.Therefore, the question should be chosen D.

When need is used as a modal verb, it can only be used in interrogative sentences, negative sentences and conditional adverbial clauses. In affirmative sentences, need can only be used as a substantive verb, followed by an infinitive with to.Example: She needs to learn English.She needs to learn English. Oneed is used as a modal verb in interrogative sentences, and must should be used for an affirmative answer.Example: "Need I be off at once?" "Yes, youmust." "Do I have to leave right away? ~Yes." 0 In negative sentences, the past time can be represented by the negative form of need + the perfect form of the verb, Here "needn't have+past participle" means doing something unnecessary.Example: You needn't have told them that.You could have not told them. When need means "to need", it is a substantive verb, often followed by a gerund as an object, and the active form is used to express the passive meaning, and the passive form of the infinitive can also be used to replace the active form of the gerund.The modal verb need has no past tense form, so it generally does not express past time.But there is no such restriction in the object clause.

neither neither (both) neither

neither neither

Can you eome on Monday or Tuesday?

I'm afraid,___day is possible.
A. either B. neither C. some D. any
The analytical answer is B.The basic key words of this topic are Monday or Tuesday and I'm afraid.The former gives a certain range, while the latter expresses "no".Therefore, the correct answer to this question should be B.

Both teams were in hard training;____was willing to lose the game.
A. either B. neither C. another D. the other
The analytical answer is B.The information word for this question is in the first half sentence, Both teams.When referring to these two teams again, because it is a negative sentence, use neither to mean "neither".

When neither is used as an adjective, it should modify a singular noun. If it is used as a subject, use a singular verb.Example: I have two good friends, but neither of them is here now. I have two friends, but neither of them is here now. Neither is used as a pronoun, followed by of+limited words+plural nouns or personal pronouns us, you, them, and if used as a subject, use singular as a predicate verb.Similarly, if neither is the subject alone, the predicate verb should also be singular. Neither is used as an adverb, which means "nor". It is often placed at the beginning of a sentence, and the subject and predicate must be inverted. Neither can be replaced by nor, or noteither (not inverted). The coordinating conjunction neitheror means "...and... both No", when it is used as the subject, its predicate verb is generally determined according to the adjacent subjects.

I finally got the job I dreamed about. Never in all my life___so happy.
A. did I feel B. I felt C. I had felt D. had I felt
The analytical answer is D. Negative adverbs such as never, not, and seldom start with negative adverbs, and the sentence must be reversed, so B and C are excluded, and because the predicate verb in the previous sentence is in the past tense, D should be selected to indicate the action before that.

news news, news

news is an uncountable noun, and when it is used as the subject in a sentence, the predicate verb is in singular form.Such as: No news is good news.No news is good news. Onews cannot be modified with a(n) or one in front of it, and piece should be used to express the quantity.To say "a piece of news" should say a piece of news, and "two pieces of news" should say two pieces of news.

newspaper newspaper (common language)

When we come to the week, month, and year immediately following the week, month, and year in front, we use next without the.Example: Will you be at the party next Tuesday?Are you going to the party next Tuesday? Prepositions such as on, in, and at cannot be used with next in these time-expressing words.When talking about a period of time from now, the next can be said.Example: I'm going to be very busy the next week.I'm going to be busy for a whole week from today.

nice nice; pleasant

Can I get you a cup of tea?

___.
A. That's very nice of you B. With pleasure

As I know, there is____car in this neighborhood.
A. no such B. no a
C. not such D. no such a
The analytical answer is A. no= not a or not any.So options B and D are repeated a.Therefore excluded.Option C is incorrect, because car is a countable noun, and an article must be added before the singular countable noun.

Not more than and no more than are both followed by numerals, but their meanings are different. no more than is equivalent to only, which means "just" and "just"; not more than is equivalent to at most.It means "at most, not more than". The former emphasizes less, while the latter explains the facts.

nobody nobody; nobody

No body went to the exhibition, ____?

A. did they B. didn't they
C. did he D. is that no
Parse answer A.Sentence meaning: Didn't go to see the exhibition, did you?Examine the formation of interrogative sentences.In the first half of the sentence, nobody is a negative word, so the second half of the sentence should use an affirmative form, with negative pronouns as the subject, and they are generally used as the pronoun in the second half of the sentence; options B, C, and D do not match the meaning of the first half of the sentence.

noon noon
at noon at noon

Noon means that 10 noon is a point in time, so instead of saying in (during) the noon, it is customary to say only at noon, and there is no article before noon.Example: (×) In summer it is very hot in the noon. (√)In summer it is very hot at noon.It is hot at noon in summer.

Not a single song____at yesterday's party.
A. she sang B. sang she
C. did she sing D. she did sing
The parsed answer is C. When the negative word Not is placed at the beginning of the sentence, the following sentence must be inverted, and it is half-inverted, which is completed by means of auxiliary verbs, so items A, B, and D can be excluded.

The negative forms of non-predicate verbs are all preceded by not not to negate all, every+noun, everyone, both and other words, it is a partial negation. any, anyone, anything, and anvwhere are used after not to express all negations. almost can modify no, none, nothing and other words, but not not, "almost not" is not not almost, should use hardly, scarcely. Always not means "not always", but "not always, sometimes not". Not a little = much means "many", similarly, not a few = quite a few means "many". If not only is used at the beginning of a sentence, the first clause should be reversed; but if the subject of the sentence not only but also is connected, there is no need to reverse it, and the predicate verb depends on the adjacent subject. no longer and not_ any longer both mean "no longer, no longer", and can be interchanged, but pay attention to the position in the sentence. no longer is located before the substantive verb, after auxiliary verbs such as be; not needs to be placed after the auxiliary verb, and any longer is placed

at the end of the sentence. Not_ or and not...and in these two structures are negative predicates, or and and are coordinating conjunctions, usually connecting two coordinating objects, predicatives, attributives, adverbials, etc.The difference is: notor is a complete negation, and the whole structure is equivalent to neither, which means "neither/have...nor have...".And notand is a partial negation, which means "not...all, not...and".
