这题应该是C,但是有点搞不清,我问过别人,以下是回答:
问:---------
58. I found myself ________ to the spot where the experiment was being performed whenever I had some time to spare.
A) draws B) drawing C) drawn D) drew
D is correct.
I think Option C would be correct. Why do we have to choose D?
And why he was close to the spot when he was free, it implies he would go up there in spite of oneself when he got free time?
Could you help me, thanks in advance.
答1----------
Re: I found myself drew to
I don't think that D is correct. It must be an error; the correct answer, as you suggest, is C.
To be drawn to something is to be compelled to do it or to want to go towards it; he found that he wanted to be there, so he went there when he had a chance
答2------------
Re: I found myself drew to
To be drawn to the spot.
Drew is the past participle of draw. You can draw yourself to the spot; you can have drew yourself to the spot (nobody uses this); you were drawn to the spot (by an imaginary force).
To me the distinction is clear. What do others think?
答3-----------
Re: I found myself drew to
But "drew" has to be a past particple of "draw". In this context we can clearly say: "The Rolling Stones drew a large audience". The alternative sort of construct would be "A large audience was drawn to the Rolling Stones".
61. President Banda’s background as a doctor has given him ________ into the medical problem that face the country.
A) a view B) a vision C) an insight D) a sight
C:Banda总统曾今是位医生的背景让他了解到了国家当前面临的医疗问题.
view==观点或者是视图 vision==脑中浮现的一种景象 sight==你眼睛看到的一定范围里的东西 insight字典里写着是:The capacity to discern the true nature of a situation; penetration.看到某种情况真实本质的能力.所以我觉得应该是insight.

事实上，此题摘自NCE第三册的课后练习，原文第一段：
Lesson 9 Flying cats 飞猫
Q: How do cats try to protect themselves when falling from great heights?
Cats never fail to fascinate human beings. They can be friendly and affectionate
towards humans, but they lead mysterious lives of their own as well. they never
become submissive like dogs and horses. As a result, humans have learned to
respect feline independence. Most cats remain suspicious of humans all their
lives. One of the things that fascinaes us most about cats is the popular belief
that they have nine lives. Apparently, there is a good deal of truth in this
idea. A cat’s ability to survive falls is based on fact.
Recently the New York Animal medical Centre made a study of 132 cas over a
period of five months. All these cats had one experience in common: they had
fallen off high buildings, yet only eight of them died from shock or injuries.
Of course, New York is the ideal place for such an interesting study, because
there is no shortage of tall buildings. There are plenty of high-rise
windowsills to fall, from! One cat ,Sabrina, fell 32 storeys, yet only suffered
from a broken tooth. ‘Cats behave like well-trained paratroopers,’ a doctor
said. It seems that the further cats fall, the less they are likely to injure
themselves. In a long drop, they reach speeds of 60 miles an hour and more. At
high speeds, falling cats have time to relax. They stretch out their legs like
flying squirrels. This increases their air-resistance and reduces the shock of
impact when they hid the ground.
10 _____ there is a good deal of truth in this idea. (l.7)
a. As a matter of fact b. In the event c. It would seem d. Surprisingly enough
练习上给的答案和解释是：
10． C
it would seem (that )… ----apparently
对于这道题，我也有疑问！！！，题目的意图显然是对原句中的apparently作出解释的，因为后面主句照抄不误！，问题就来了：原题句有个逗号，为何问题句中没有了逗号？是不是漏打了？
如果有这个逗号，是不是正确答案就是A呢？
因为没有了这个逗号，才选C的吧？那我问一下：It is said that--主语从句， It seems that-主语从句中的连词that可以省略吗？
还有为什么C项用虚拟语气it would seem而不是it seems呢？因为it would seem 比it seems 的语气是更不肯定！而apperently可以用Obviously来代替的!,很明显，c项并不是最佳替换，甚至是错误的！
是的，apparently 是有三个不同的解释：表面上地：明显地，似乎
但是在此文中，似乎不是”似乎“，而是第二种解释。
最后，选择题设计的原则：四个选项的功能、词性应该相同，另三项具有干扰性，很显然，该题中的ABD是状语性质的，与原句的apparently词性相同，功能相同，而It would seem that-选项属于句子转换而非词语解释，该项显然与另三项不同类，也就是说，如果说，此题答案是C，则也是 一失败的题，因为另三项一点干扰作用都没有！有人说了，这三项是需要有逗号的，这一个没有逗号，就可以排除三个了！而如果有了逗号呢？则只能排除C项（会出题的，有逗号，也不会出这样的C项，应该出副词性的短语才行！），接下来，还是要理解apparently在原文中的确切含义，选择三个中的一个为最佳答案。
实际上，B项也不是很有干扰性。D项倒是有一定的干扰性。如我下面所说，本书后面的练习题，有问题者不少！
结论：原题设计不当，可能打字疏忽，原题中有逗号。
参考答案因逗号而误解。原作者的答案为A
新概念英语自上世纪70年代进入中国以来，经久不衰。此书是经得起考验的。不过，由中国人改版的NCE，在课文前加了听力问题，在后面加了不少的选择题，此乃何教授的学生所为吧，有不少题是有问题的。这不是原版的问题。要批判地使用。
以上回答你满意么？
第3个回答 2012-06-11
正确答案是：C
给两个例句你参考就明
尽管从我们习惯的中国式思维分析时，好像用 C. whatever 显得语句重复了，但实际上并没有！
这句话就是要强调whatever：任何食物都是免费的
意思是：“你可以到我餐厅免费吃任何你喜欢吃的东西（食物）”
you like与whatever都是用来修饰food一词：whatever food you like
可以参考一下这个例句：
① She applied whatever strength she had left to the task.
You can eat food free in my restuarant________ you like
“you like” 缺了宾语
A. whenever 是连词，副词
C. whatever 是代词、形容词 代词可以作宾语，连词/副词不可以。
如果要用 A. whenever 的话，这句话应该要这样说：
You can eat food free in my restuarant________ you like it.
like 的后面应该要加上一个宾语，或直接加一个代词以避免语句重复，否则句子不完整。
在一些省略回答中，我们可以说： I do. yes, I can. yes,I am. 等
却不能说： yes,I like.
而应该说： yes, I like it (very much)
因为只有助动词才能省略宾语，动词不可以。 I do 中的 do 是助动词，而非动词“做”的意思。
还不明白的话，可参考牛津英语词典里的一个例句：
② I do remarkable work in English whenever I feel like it.

You can eat food free in my restuarant________ you like
A.whenever B.wherever C.whatever D.however问题补充：
注：有一本练习册答案为A
老师说C 原因说的不明不白
答：这一题只能选A，不能选C
译：A。 你可以在我的餐馆里免费用膳，什么时候只要你喜欢都可以。
whenever you like 作让步状语从句，表示“任何时候”。
whatever you like=anything you like, 是一个名词性从句，而本句中的及物动词eat已经有宾语food了，不缺乏宾语，这个名词性从句在句子中没有地位。如果没有这个food,则选C
You can eat free in my restaurant whatever you like.
译：在我的餐馆里，你可以吃你喜欢的任何东西，全免费。
其实没有这个food,选A也是能的，因为eat可以作不及物动词，表示吃东西。
