[注意]likely与possible在结构搭配上的区别。Likely可用于下列句型中:1)It is likely that...例如:It is highly likely that he will succeed.(很可能他会成功。)2)think(feel, consider)it likely ...例如:I think it likely that we will ultimately get a certain amount of money.3)be likely to do sth.例如:He is likely to see you again .但下面的句型是错误的,It is likely for sb to do sth.所以think it likely for sb. to do sth.也是错误的,故本题不能选likely.
