Answer 1

D
本題主要考查動詞try和help的用法。
首先try to do something是“設(shè)法干某事”，而try doing是“試著做某事”，“試一試”的含義。從該句的意思來判斷。我們應(yīng)排除選項A和C。再從help這個動詞來看，表示“幫助某人做某事”的句型應(yīng)該是help…in doing something或hel…with…，因此，答案只能選擇D。此句譯為：“請試著幫馬奶奶做點家務(wù)活�！�
下面介紹一下try to do和try doing的例句：
She tried writing down her name.
她試著寫下自己的名字。
Try learning to speak English.
試一試，學(xué)著講英語。
I'll try not to make mistakes.
我會設(shè)法不犯錯誤。
He tried hard to be away from his teacher.
他極力避開他的老師。
