3、h as a foreign language came out in the 16th century.單項填空1Mrs.White showed her students some old maps_from the library.Ato borrow Bto be borrowed Cborrowed Dborrowing答案C解析句意為：懷特老師給學(xué)生們看了一些從圖書館里借來的舊地圖。old maps與borrow之間是邏輯上的被動關(guān)系，由句中的動詞showed可知此動作已經(jīng)發(fā)生，可排除不定式短語作后置定語，即可排除A、B兩項；D項表示主動或進(jìn)行，也不符合語境；C項表示被動或完成，符

4、合語境。2In April，thousands of holidaymakers remained_abroad due to the volcanic ash cloud.Asticking Bstuck Cto be stuck Dto have stuck答案B解析句意為：四月份，由于火山灰云的影響，成千上萬的度假者被滯留在海外。空格處用過去分詞stuck表示“被卡住”，引申為“被滯留”，符合句意；現(xiàn)在分詞表示動作正在進(jìn)行；動詞不定式表示將要發(fā)生的動作，不符合句意。3So far nobody has claimed the money_in the library.Adiscovere

5、d Bto be discovered Cdiscovering Dhaving discovered答案A解析句意為：迄今為止，沒有人認(rèn)領(lǐng)在圖書館里發(fā)現(xiàn)的錢。本題考查非謂語動詞作定語，因discover與money之間是邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系，故用過去分詞作定語。4Im calling to enquire about the position_in yesterdays China Daily.Aadvertised Bto be advertised Cadvertising Dhaving advertised答案A解析句意為：我打電話來咨詢一下有關(guān)昨天在中國日報上刊登廣告(招聘)的職位。a

6、dvertised.是過去分詞短語作后置定語，被修飾詞position與advertise是被動關(guān)系。5A great number of students_said they were forced to practise the piano.Ato question Bto be questioned Cquestioned Dquestioning答案C解析句意為：許多被調(diào)查的學(xué)生說，他們是被迫練習(xí)彈鋼琴的。句中空格處作定語，修飾名詞students，且二者之間是被動關(guān)系，可排除A、D兩項；而B項不定式是表示將來的被動，與句中said的時態(tài)不符，故選C項。6Dont use words

7、or phrases _ only to people with specific knowledge.Abeing known Bhaving been known Cto be known Dknown答案D解析句意為：不要用那些只有專業(yè)人士才認(rèn)識的單詞或短語。words or phrases應(yīng)是被認(rèn)識，因此，應(yīng)用過去分詞known作后置定語表示被動。7Mr.Smith，_of the_speech，started to read a novel.Atired；boring Btiring；bored Ctired；bored Dtiring；boring答案A解析過去分詞修飾的是人，現(xiàn)在

8、分詞修飾的是物，所以此題選擇A。8The pilot asked all the passengers on board to remain_as the plane was making a landing.Aseat Bseating Cseated Dto be seating答案C解析seated在這兒起形容詞的作用，作remain的表語，“保持原來的狀態(tài)”。9This is the problem_so quickly last evening.Ahaving been settled BsettleCbe settled Dsettled答案D解析句子的表語the problem和

9、settle之間存在著動賓關(guān)系，此處考查的是過去分詞作后置定語的用法。10I dont know the girl_in the storm.Ato catch Bcaught Ccatching Dto be catching答案B解析句子的賓語the girl和catch之間存在著動賓關(guān)系，此處考查的是過去分詞作后置定語的用法。11The little boy _ by his father left home last night.Ahaving been scolded Bto be scolded Cscolded Dwho has been scolded答案C解析scolded

10、by his father過去分詞短語作后置定語，表被動完成，相當(dāng)于定語從句who was scolded by his father。12The _ look on his face showed that he hadnt expected it.Aastonished Bastonishing Cbeing astonished Dhaving astonished答案A解析分詞作定語修飾名詞置于名詞之前時，一般只能用單個的分詞，不能使用being done或having done來修飾，由此排除C項和D項；修飾look/expression等表示“表情”的單詞時，多用過去分詞，不用現(xiàn)在

11、分詞，由此排除B項，確定答案為astonished。13His ability_in those years was praised by all of us.Ashowing Bbe showing Cshown Dwas shown答案C解析句子的主干部分是His ability was praised by all of us.，句子的主語his ability和show之間存在著動賓關(guān)系，所以要選擇C。14There is a big dog_to a fence outside the house.Atying Btied Cto tie Dties答案B解析There is a d

12、og.是句子的主干部分，dog和tie之間存在著動賓關(guān)系，此處考查的是過去分詞作后置定語的用法。15The Olympic Games, _ in 776 BC.，did not include women players until 1912.Afirst played Bto be first played Cfirst playing Dto be first playing答案A解析由the Olympic Games與play之間的被動關(guān)系可以排除表示主動關(guān)系的C項和D項；過去分詞短語to be first played作定語應(yīng)表示將來要發(fā)生的事情，根據(jù)句子中的時間狀語“in 776

13、 BC”可排除B項；過去分詞短語“first played”既可以表示被動關(guān)系，又可以表示該動作發(fā)生在過去。.閱讀填空The traditional American school year begins in late August or early September.It ends in May or June，followed by summer vacation._1_Because long ago，young people had to help their families harvest the summer crops.At least this is what peopl
