the way to do sth.
the method of + n.
the approach to + n. / doing sth.

有可能。
likely/possible/probable
likely是常用词,指从表面上看很有可能。主语既可以是人也可以是物。可以说sb./sth. be likely to do或it's likely that…, 但是不可以说 It is likely for sb. to do。
possible强调客观上有可能,但含有实际上可能性很小的意思。主语不可以是人,只能是用it作形式主语。构成It is possible for sb. to do sth.或It is possible that…
probable 语气比possible强,主要强调有根有据、合情合理的推测,含有“很有可能,十有八九”的意思。构成It is probable for sb. to do sth. 。作表语时,主语不能是人或动词不定式。

A. is possible to

()(2) I think the team of your class will be ______ to win, but you have to work harder.
A. possible
B. likely
C. probable
D. certain
B possible和 probable只能构成It's + adj.+to do sth.句式;certain是“一定、理所当然”,根据but you have to work harder判断,没有十足的把握,所以答案是B。
6、lose (one's) face
根据语境猜词义

根据语境,lose (one's) face的语义是:______。

7、The_first_person_to_arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, closely followed by Julia Smith from Britain.(P26)
第一个到达的是从哥伦比亚来的托尼·加西亚,随后紧跟着的是英国的朱莉娅·史密斯。
the first person to arrive中是动词不定式to arrive作定语,修饰先行词the first person。动词不定式作定语,我们应该注意以下问题:
(1)注意非谓语动词动作所发生的时间都是在谓语动词之后。与先行词是主动关系,就用to do; 形成被动关系,就用to be done。
Everyone to visit the Great Wall sign here, please.
凡去参观长城的人请在这儿报名。
(2) 由only, last, next, 序数词或形容词最高级修饰的名词常用不定式作定语。动词不定式作定语要放在所修饰的名词或代词之后。
She was the only one to get a scholarship.
她是唯一得到奖学金的人。
(3) 当谓语动词是have 或get作“有”讲时,动词不定式的主动与被动取决于句中有没有其逻辑主语参与动词不定式这一活动,有,就用主动式;没有,就用其被动式。
I'll go to the post office because I have something to post. Do you have something to be posted?
(4)作定语的不定式如果是不及物动词,或者不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的地点、工具,不定式后面须加相应的介词。
She is looking for a room to live in.
她在寻找一间房子住。
()(2006·湖北) At the meeting they discussed three different ______to the study of mathematics.
A. approaches
B. means
C. methods
D. ways
Tony approached Julia, touched her shoulder and kissed her on the cheek!(P26)
A 考查名词词义辨析。approaches方法, 与to连用,表示“……的方法”。
