D.isn’the参考答案：D11."Gotit？"ProfessorSmithsays，"______，let'smoveontothenextpart．"（）A．Ifnot B．Ifanything C．Ifever D．Ifso参考答案：D本题考查状语从句的省略句和替代．if

so如果是这样，用so代替上文的一件事；其否定形式是ifnot如果不是；如果状语从句中含有it/therebe时，常常同时把it/therebe省略；所以B项if（thereis）

anything如果有什么；ifever如果曾经发生过，属于为了避免重复省略了与上文相同的部分；根据下文"let'smoveontothenextpart我们继续下一部分"推断，是在"如果懂了"的条件下，所以用so代替上文的"yougotit"这件事，故答案选择D．12.TheChristmasseasonis______bestmomentoftheyeartositbackandwatch______goodmovie.A.a；the
