I have to be off for an important dinner.”可知已經到了下班時間了，對方有重要的晚宴要參加，因此應結束一天的工作了。故選D。8．B解析：B【詳解】句意：——我表弟差點被選為主席。很遺憾，一個小小的錯誤使他失去了這個大好機會。——失之毫厘，謬以千里?？疾橹V語。Every dog has its day人人皆有得意時；A miss is as good as a mile失之毫厘，謬以千里；Never say bad words about others behind永遠不要背后說別人的壞話；No pains, no gains一分耕耘，一分收獲。根據“a small mistake cost him the great chance”可知ACD三項不合語境，故選B。9．D解析：D【解析】試題分析：句意：―我不相信你完成工作了。―我朋友幫助我的。正如諺語所說“人多力量大” A. Practice makes perfect熟能生巧；B. Put all your eggs in one basket孤注一擲；C. Burn the candle at both ends勞累過度；D. Many hands make light work眾人拾柴火焰高。在朋友幫助下完成了任務，人多力量大。故選D?！究键c定位】 考查英語諺語。10．D解析：D【詳解】句意：——如果我們都自愿幫忙的話，晚會結束后清理應該不會花很長時間。——沒錯。人多好辦事?？疾榱曊Z。Don’t burn the candle at both ends不要兩頭都點蠟燭；No pain, no gain一分耕耘，一分收獲；Don’t put all your eggs in one basket不要把所有的雞蛋放在一個籃子里；Many hands make light work人多好辦事。根據“It shouldn’t take long to cle
