本题考查的是regret的用法。regret to do表示很遗憾地做某事,但后面的动作尚未发生。例如:I regret to tell you that you didn’t pass the exam.而regret doing则表示很遗憾做过某事,比如这里,没能帮上忙是过去的事情,已经发生过,故用现在分词形式。而现在分词部分变否定形式则要在be前面加not,而不是在be后面,故排除C,而选B。

6. The driver was at______loss when word came that he was forbidden to drive for speeding.

[解析] 此题考查固定搭配。此句中beat a loss是一个固定搭配,表示不知所措。此外,此句叙述的是过去发生的事情,所以当时已经出现的一个word前面应该用定冠词the。word在此处作“消息,新闻”讲,如The mayor sent word he’d be late.市长派人传话说,他要晚到。而本句意思是:当得知自己因为超速而被禁止驾驶的消息,司机顿时茫然,不知所措。
7. You ______ me, because I didn't say that.
A.must have misunderstood
