参考答案:A进入在线模考
【译文】开幕仪式是一个非常隆重的场合,我们必须为此做好准备。
【解析】essential的用法。essential在表示“做某事非常有必要”时常见于结构It is essential that…或It is essential(for sb.)to do sth.,因此选项A为正确选项。由于该结构在跟that从句时需使用虚拟语气(shoud)do…,因此选项B错;没有D这种结构;It is…of sb.to do sth.结构中is后所跟形容词为主语补语.常为nice,kind,generous,willing,reluctant,deliberate等描写人物特征、品德的形容词,essential不能用于这种结构.故不选C。
