Answer 1

分析 had no choice but to cut short．

解答 答案：had no choice but to cut short．這里是說(shuō)過(guò)去的事情用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，表示除了…沒有別的選擇用have no choice but to do sth，have的過(guò)去式是had，縮短cut short，故答案是had no choice but to cut short．

點(diǎn)評(píng) have no choice but to do sth．除了…別無(wú)選擇
have no choice but to accpet his invitation．
我除了接受他的邀請(qǐng)沒有別的選擇．
I have no choice but to believe what you're saying．
我除了相信你說(shuō)的話別無(wú)選擇．
have nothing to do but do sth．除了…什么也沒做
例如：I had nothing to do but slept all the time last Sunday．
（我上周日除了睡覺什么也沒有做．）
