问题 The vocabulary and grammatical differences between British and American English are so trivial and few as hardly______.

选项 A、noticed
B、to be noticed
C、being noticed
D、to notice

答案B

解析 此句考查的是不定式作结果状语so…as to的否定形式so…as not to,只不过是not换成了含有否定意义的词hardly。分析出这一点,考生便可断定A、C是错误的;另外,notice与differences是动宾关系,所以应采用被动式,因此D也是错的。全句应为The vocabulary and grammatical differences...are so trivial and few as hardly to be no—ticed,相当于…are so trivial and few that they(指differences)are hardly noticed。又如:The auditorium is so spacious as to hold 5 000 people.这个礼堂大得足以容纳5 000人。The auditorium is so small as hardly to hold 100 people.这个礼堂小得几乎容纳不了100人。He was so angry as hardly to be able to speak.他气得几乎说不出话来。如果修饰名词,用such…as to…,如:He made such a tedious report as to tire the audi—ence.他的报告冗长而枯燥,使得听众都厌烦了。He was in such a hurry as not to writeto me before he started off.他出发前因为太匆忙而没有写信给我。句意为:英国英语和美国英语在词汇和语法上差别极少,几乎注意不到。
