Neither answer is right .
Neither of them knows me .

to keep it straight 是动词不定工，在句中作状语，表示捆树的目的。straight 是宾语 it 意义上的补充和延伸，所以叫做宾语补足语。又如：
We always keep our classroom clean .
Don\'t touch the machine . You must keep yourselves safe .
( 3 ) 在句中常用来作宾语补足语的还有动词不定式、分词、名词等。例如：

( 2 ) 该句为一般过去时被动语态。
11 . In 1850 , about a third was covered by forests . 1850年，大约三分这一 ( 的美国国土 ) 被森林覆盖。A third 即为 one third 或 1/3。
［释疑］英语中分数的文字表达，分子用基数词，分母用序数词，先读分子，后读分母。当分子大于1时，分母用相应的复数。例如：2 / 3 读作 two thirds . 5 / 7 读作 five sevenths .
12 . A lot of good land has gone with them , leaving only sand . 大片的肥沃土壤随着森林的消失而流失，只留下一片荒沙。
