sure 的常见用法是 I'm sure,make sure. 这里 sure 在 can 的后面,好像是动词,可是一查词典,sure 不能做动词。实际上,a sure out 是一个棒球术语,能打出 a sure out 可能要一定水平。我不懂棒球。以中文足球术语为例,“他能头球”,本来“头球”是名词,这里当动词用了。同理,Harry can sure play baseball. 的意思是:Harry can throw a sure out when he plays baseball. 接下来的一句是 Can't he, though. 表示不太肯定,且有点惋惜:虽然他现在不行了。 ; z6 K6 A/ R0 w) ]5 L& u ; d; s) N+ x# R答案:(B) Harry's a good ballplayer.= Harry was a good ballplayer.
