C.inplace

D.inturn参考答案：C4.______meachancetotry,Ibelieve,Iwon’tdisappointyou.A.Ifyougive

B.Give

C.Togive

D.Giving参考答案：A【详解】考查条件状语从句。句意：如果你给我一个机会去尝试，我相信我不会让你失望的。分析句子可知，Ibelieve为插入语，后句为完整句子，且无连词连接，故前句用连词if引导作条件状语从句。故选A。【点睛】此题如果Iwon’tdisappointyou.前用连词and连接，就是考查“祈使句＋and/or＋陈述句。”，就选B；此题也可以从非谓语动词角度考虑，逻辑主语为I，与give之间为被动关系，用过去分词given，句子也可以成立。5.Ifwe___theotherroad,wemighthavearrivedhereintimeforthemeeting.
