Question

When I was _______ the school football team because I was unfit, I knew it was time to quit _______. 

A．taken off, smoking	B．taken up, having smoked
C．taken down, to smoke	D．taken apart, smoking

Answer 1

A

试题分析：考查短语辨析。take off起飞，脱掉，成功；离开；take up占据，从事于，开始做；take apart分解，拆卸；take down写下，记下；quit doing sth放弃做某事；句意：因为我的身体不好，当我从校球队离开的时候，我就知道是戒烟的时候了。根据句意说明A正确。
点评：在平时要把同一种类型的短语放在一起如：同一个动词加上不同的副词介词，或者同一个介词副词加上不同的动词。把这些短语放在一起进行辨析和识记。
