A.turn out B.bring out C.call out D.pick out 解析:选D。本题考查动词短语辨析。句意:电影院里是那么黑以至于我几乎辨认不出我的朋友。turn out-appear出现,露面;bring out-cause sth.to appear,publish sth.使显出,出版;call out-shout,cry大声叫喊,大声说出;pick out-distinguish sb./sth.from surrounding people or things分辨出某人(某物)。从句意判断,答案应为pick out。 【教材原句】 Unfortunately his father died,leaving the family even worse off... 不幸的是他的父亲去世了,整个家庭状况更糟了…… 【句法分析】 leaving...为现在分词短语作结果状语。现在分词作结果状语,表示顺其自然的结果。 ①His parents died,leaving him an orphan. 他父母双亡,成了孤儿。 ②The child fell,striking his head against the door. 小孩摔了一跤,头在门上碰了一下。 ③European football is played in 80 countries,making it the most popular sport in the world. 八十个国家踢欧式足球,使它成为世界上最流行的运动。 【温馨提示】 现在分词作结果状语常表示“意料、情理之中”,而不定式作结果状语常表出乎意料的结果。 ④He hurried to the bus stop,only to find the bus had left. 他匆匆地去了车站,结果发现车已离开。 ⑤Her father disappeared,never to be heard from again. 她的父亲离家出走,从此杳无音讯。 ⑥He hurried to the airport only to be told the plane had been put off. 他匆忙赶到机场,结果被告知航班推迟了。 [即境活用] 8.(2010年高考重庆卷)The news shocked the public,__________to great concern about students’ safety at school. A.having led B.led C.leading D.to lead 解析:选C。句意:这条新闻使广大民众感到很震惊,引起了人们对在校学生安全的担忧。考查非谓语动词作结果状语。首先排除B和D两项;having done 指动作先于谓语动词发生,在此不符合语境,故只能选择C。 9.(2011年成都外国语学校模拟)Oil prices have risen________32 percent since last year,________a record $84.65 a barrel on Nov.9. A.by;reached B.by;reaching C.by;to reach D.to;reaching 解析:选B。考查介词的用法及非谓语动词的用法。介词by表程度,reaching短语在句中作结果状语。不定式也可作结果状语,但常与only或just连用,表示一种意想不到的结果。 10.(2011年绵阳诊断)The financial crisis that originated(源于)on Wall Street swept the world,thus________large numbers of workers jobless. A.leaving B.to leave C.left D.have left 解析:选A。考查非谓语动词的用法。动词leave与其逻辑主语the financial crisis 之间是主谓关系,所以用leaving...作结果状语,相当于which left...。 作文指导 主动句和被动句的变换 什么时候用被动,什么时候用主动,主要是由陈述对象决定的。英语写作中特别强调陈述对象的一致性,因此考生在选择主动和被动时一定要慎重。 主动变被动 1.不需体现动作的执行者。 【佳句选粹】 【原文】 【优化】 It will certainly produce a great change in the world’s communications. A great change will certainly be produced in the world’s communications. 【分析】 本句强调“a great change”,使用被动语态会使其更符合英文表达。 2.需要强调动作的承受者。 【佳句选粹】 【原文】 【优化】 The earthquake destroyed many buildings and houses on May 12th,2008. Many buildings and houses were destroyed by the earthquake on May 12th,2008. 【分析】 为了强调“many buildings and houses”被毁坏,用被动语态更好。 3.保持陈述对象的一致,以求行文连贯。 【佳句选粹】 【原文】 【优化】 My mother’s words moved me,and I felt so ashamed for my stubbornness. I was so moved by my mother’s words,and I felt so ashamed for my stubbornness. 【分析】 为了保证两个句子的主语一致,把第1个句子变为被动语态,以使句子连贯。 被动变主动 1.需要体现动作的执行者。 【佳句选粹】 【原文】 【优化】 Now listening more to their children is paid more attention to by most parents,so they will understand them better. Now most parents pay more attention to listening more to their children,so they will understand them better. 【分析】 本句想表达“现在父母们更注重倾听孩子们了”,因此句子要体现“most parents”的行为,因此用主动语态。 2.保持陈述对象的一致,以求行文连贯。 【佳句选粹】 【原文】 【优化】 If we don’t know how the wastes should be used,we can sell them to the recycling station. If we don’t know how to use the wastes,we can sell them to the recycling station. 【分析】 原文中if引导的从句中的宾语从句 (how the...used) 的被动语态导致 if 从句中前后陈述对象混乱,影响了句意的明晰和语言的流畅。 v.ing作定语、表语和宾补 一、v.ing作定语 1.动名词作定语常表示所修饰的名词的用途,常位于所修饰的名词之前,可以转换成“for...”的结构。 a sleeping bag(a bag for sleeping)睡袋 a writing desk(a desk for writing)写字台 a washing machine(a machine for washing)洗衣机 a walking stick(a stick for walking)拐杖 2.动名词与现在分词作定语的区别: 动名词作定语表示所修饰名词的功能、用途。现在分词作定语表示性质、特征、状态或动作,可以转换成定语从句。 The man standing there will sing us a song. 站在那儿的那个男人将为我们唱一首歌。(现在分词) Do you know the dancing girl? 你认识这个跳舞的女孩吗?(现在分词) Nobody can stop the running horse. 没有人能阻止那匹奔跑的马。(现在分词) They are swimming in the swimming pool. 他们正在游泳池里游泳。(第二个swimming为动名词) 二、v.ing作表语 Her job is teaching.她从事教学工作。 Mary is translating a book.玛丽在翻译一本书。 1.动名词作表语表示一般性、经常性的动作。 His job is teaching English. 他的工作是教英语。 2.动名词与现在分词作表语的区别: 动名词作表语表示主语的内容,可以把主语和表语交换;而现在分词作表语说明主语的性质、特征,此时主语和表语不可以交换位置。 She is washing the dishes. 她正在洗餐具。 Teaching is my job.教学是我的工作。 三、v.ing作宾语补足语 1.动名词不作宾补,而现在分词可以作宾补。 现在分词作宾语补足语主要用在某些动词如see,hear,notice,watch,keep,find,get,have,feel等后,与一个名词或代词构成复合宾语。这时v.ing形式和句子的宾语之间存在着逻辑上的主谓关系,并且v.ing表示宾语正在进行的动作。 2.v.ing和不定式作宾语补足语的区别: 在see,hear,feel,watch,notice等感官动词后,既可以用动词的ing形式构成复合宾语,也可以用不定式构成复合宾语,两者之间存在着一定的区别,即:现在分词表示动作正在进行,而不定式表示动作发生了,即动作的全过程结束了。 注意 在see,hear,feel,watch,notice等感官动词后,跟省to的不定式作宾补,但在被动语态中,应再加上to。 Ⅰ.单词拼写 1.This is a special(特殊的)day in the history of our country. 2.Some species(种类)of animals have become extinct because they could not adapt to a changing environment. 3.The comedian performed for our entertainment(娱乐). 4.Honesty(诚实)is the best policy. 5.The falling leaves inspired(激起)her with sadness. 6.He drank a mouthful(一口)of wine from each glass. 7.They were undoubtedly the most outstanding couple in the field of physics all over the world. 8.At last they overcame(战胜) all the Latin tribes in Italy. 9.I wish I had this chance of coming into a fortune. 10.Have you a particular reason for choosing the book? Ⅱ.词语填空 boil,chew,swing,slide,knock into,entertain,whisper,direct,star in,overcome 1.It is not an easy job to_direct a large bank(乐队). 2.He knocked_into a chair in the dark,which hurt his knee badly. 3.Chewing the food slowly is a good habit of taking a meal. 4.After 8 years of hard fighting the Chinese people overcame the Japanese invaders in the end. 5.Children like to_slide/sliding down the slope(斜坡). 6.When we visited our old friend,he entertained us with music. 7.The actor starring_in The Gold Rush is Chaplin. 8.The ship began to_swing at sea and some of the passengers began to feel seasick. 9.I did not dare to speak aloud or even whisper to Alison what was in my mind. 10.Some vegetables can’t be_boiled long,which can make them not delicious. Ⅲ.把下列句子译成汉语,并写出其中非谓语动词的功能 1.Tell the children playing there not to make so much noise. 叫在那边玩的孩子别弄出那么多的噪音。playing_there作定语修饰children。 2.We need someone to help with our work. 我们需要有人帮我们做这项工作。to_help_with_our_work作定语修饰someone。 3.The father’s task is to help his son find a good job. 那位父亲的任务是帮他儿子找到一份好工作。to_help_his_son_find_a_good_job作表语。 4.It is surprising to discover so many ancient Chinese coins in Australia. 在澳大利亚发现那么多中国古硬币真令人吃惊。surprising作表语。to_discover_so_many_ancient_Chinese_coins_in_Australia是真正的主语,it是形式主语。 5.A wellkept secret is one that you never tell anyone. 一个保守得很好的秘密是一个你从来也不告诉任何人的秘密。wellkept作定语修饰secret。 6.I noticed them forcing the door open with a hammer. 我注意到他们正在用锤子敲开门。forcing_the_door_open_with_a_hammer作them的宾补。 7.Did you see a boy pass here just now? 刚才你看到有一个男孩从这里经过了吗?pass_here作a_boy的宾补。 8.I could hear the couple whispering to each other during the first part of the play. 我能听到那一对夫妻在演出第一幕时相互低声说话。whispering_to_each_other作the_couple的宾补。 Ⅳ.用所给动词的适当形式填空 1.We heard them quarrelling (quarrel) about money after the concert;they looked very angry. 2.The villagers saw the fire burning (burn) brightly in the distance.When they hurried there,they found some houses burned (burn) to the ground already. 3.I didn’t see anyone take (take) away your paper.It might have been flown by the wind. 4.During the days to_come (come) we’ll make good preparations for the sports meeting. 5.The woman looking (look) at her map is a relative of my mother. 6.Einstein was one of the greatest scientist respected (respect) by the people. 7.Doing nothing is doing (do) ill. 8.To do that would be to_cut (cut) the foot to fit the shoe. 9.We were all very surprised (surprise) at the news.I found it very surprising (surprise). 10.He gave us an inspiring (inspire) speech.We were all inspired (inspire).

Ⅵ.单项填空 1.The man ________ there is our headmaster.Would you like to go over and say hello to him? A.stand B.to stand C.is standing D.standing 答案 D 解析 本题考查v.ing形式作定语的用法。A、C两项因为不是非谓语动词形式而被排除。B项不定式表示未进行的动作,显然不合题意。 2.The places ________ in the book are among the most beautiful in China,so the foreigner bought it at once. A.describing B.described C.to describe D.be described 答案 B 解析 此题考查过去分词作定语的用法。因为place与describe之间存在动宾关系,因此describe应使用被动式。 3.The ________ news made them ________.It turned out that China ranked first on the list of gold medals. A.excited;exciting B.exciting;to be excited C.exciting;excited D.exciting;excite 答案 C 解析 “令人兴奋的”用exciting;“(人)兴奋的”用excited。 4.The noise of desks ________ could be heard out in the street.We knew there must be a school nearby. A.opening and closing B.opened and closed C.to be opened and closed D.being opened and closed 答案 D 解析 因为声音可以被听到,因此开关课桌的声音应该是正在发出。又因为desk与open/close之间存在动宾关系,因此close/open应使用被动式。综上所述,应使用being done的形式作定语。 5.—Is this the path ________ to the village? —Yes,it is. A.leads B.led C.leading D.to lead 答案 C 解析 leading to the village=which leads to the village,v.ing形式用作定语。 6.I have never heard the song ________ in such a strange way. A.singing B.sang C.to sing D.sung 答案 D 解析 song与sing之间存在动宾关系,因此sing使用被动式,作宾语补足语。 7.She smelt something ________ in the kitchen and shouted “Fire!” in a loud voice. A.burning B.to burn C.burned D.burn 答案 A 解析 burn指“烧焦”,此处表示“正在燃烧”,因此用v.ing形式作宾语补足语。 8.His job was ________ people with all kinds of tricks he can think of. A.entertain B.entertaining C.entertained D.to entertaining 答案 B 解析 考查v.ing形式作表语,A、C、D三项中的形式不符合语法。 9.Next week I’ll go to work in the town,so I’ll have my brother there ________ a house for me. A.to find B.finding C.found D.find 答案 D 解析 have sb. do sth.为常用句型,do前的不定式符号to被省略。 10.The director scolded Jane because she left the office with the door ________. A.unlocking B.not being locked C.unlocked D.not locking 答案 C 解析 本题考查固定结构“with+宾语+宾语补足语”中的宾语补足语的形式。door与unlock之间存在动宾关系,所以unlock应用被动式。 11.Many children have formed the habit of reading but ________ notes meanwhile. A.not take B.not to take C.not taking D.not to taking 答案 C 解析 句意为:许多孩子养成了阅读的习惯,但是没有养成同时做笔记的习惯。动名词作宾语。连词but连接介词of的两个宾语,即:Many children have formed the habit of reading but they have not formed the habit of taking notes meanwhile.。注意否定副词not置于非谓语动词前。 12.________ about buying cars,I prefer a car less than 100,000 yuan to one over the amount. A.To talk B.Talked C.Having talked D.Talking 答案 D 解析 本题考查非谓语动词的用法。现在分词表示动作正在进行,与主语是主动关系。 13.________ after a long walk,Henry called and said he couldn’t come. A.Having worn out B.Being worn out C.To wear out D.Worn out 答案 D 解析 句意为:长途跋涉之后,Henry感到精疲力竭,打电话说他不能来了。过去分词作状语。wear oneself/sb. out (to make oneself or sb. feel very tired)使疲乏,使精疲力尽,因此主语Henry与wear为被动关系。Worn out after a long walk...相当于状语从句Because Henry was worn out after a long walk...。 14.I really appreciate ________ to help me,but I am sure that I will be able to manage by myself. A.you to offer B.your offering C.that you offer D.that you are offering 答案 B 解析 句意为:我很感激你提出帮助我,但是我相信我能自己解决。动名词作宾语。appreciate (one’s) doing sth.其中的one’s为offering的逻辑主语。 15.John did quite well in his exams,________ how little he studied. A.consider B.considering C.considered D.to consider 答案 B 解析 句意为:鉴于John没怎么学习,他在考试中的表现已经相当不错了。considering...鉴于,考虑到……,为固定用法,不受句子主语的影响。如:She’s very active considering her age.就她的年龄来说,她是十分活跃的。 Ⅶ.阅读填空 Richard’s father died when he was five.Later on he lost his mother.An old woman felt sorry for the poor boy and often helped him.Of course he had no money to go to school.He had to work for a rich farmer.The man paid him nothing except food and clothes.__1__He found some old books near the school and taught himself to read and write. __2__It connected the village and the town.One morning people found there was a big stone on it.It stopped them from going to town.They had to move it away, or they had to cross the mountain if they had something to do in the town.But the stone weighed thirty tons at least and the strongest young men couldn’t do that.__3__ Richard looked at it carefully for a while and said, “I have a way to move it away.” But few men believed him.__4__Night fell and people went home.Only the boy stayed there.

I said sorry to him politely immediately, but he called my names rudely. I am in a bad mood the rest of the day. Realizing my bad mood, my headteacher talked with me patiently about it. He said that in fact it is an attitude toward life. It is known to us all that there is a famous saying “Everything depends on one's attitude”. Life is like a mirror, if you smile at it, it will smile back to you.

The 11 oil ministers decided to meet again on July 3 to discuss the effects of the Iraq temporary stop. The organization's president, Charkid Kheria of Algeria, said after the meeting that stocks were high and prices were stable, so quota increases were not necessary. The E.U. Commission has expressed concern about Iraq's output stop. A speaker said OPEC had to take all possible measures to keep or lower the oil price. Saudi Arabia's Oil Minister Ali AlNuaimi had earlier said there would not be any shortfall of oil in the market. The organization had already taken steps to fill the gap, he said. OPEC Secretary General Ali Rodriguez added that the period of Iraq's output stop was not known, so other exporters were not going to lift quotas yet. If the market was destabilized (使……动摇), a suitable response could be made. Iraq on Monday stopped shipments of crude oil to protest against the U.N. Security Council's decision to extend the oilforfood programme by only a month, instead of the normal sixmonth renewal. Just before the Vienna meeting, oil prices had gone up, with a barrel of OPEC crude oil selling for 27.05 dollars, up from 26.81 dollars last Friday. North Sea oil was at 29.26 dollars Monday evening. OPEC wants the oil price to stay within a margin of 22 to 28 dollars and achieved that with cuts in January and March that reduced 2.5 million barrels per day off quotas(配额). 5. Iraq made the decision to stop oil deliveries because ______. A. oil price is too low in international market B. the U.N. Secretary Council has decided to shorten the time of extension of the oilforfood programme C. many oil wells were destroyed during the war in the late 1980s D. it couldn't get enough money to develop its economy 答案及解析: B。由文章倒数第二段第一句可知。 6. The attitude the E.U. Commission took towards Iraq's output stop is ______. A. active B. concerned C. cold D. surprised 答案及解析: B。由文章第三段可知。 7. The 11 oil ministers decided to meet on July 3 so that______. A. they can persuade Iraq to continue oil production B. they can have a talk with the U.N. Security Council C. they can have a discussion about the effects of Iraq's temporary output stop D. they can make up their minds to increase oil production 答案及解析: C。文章第二段第一句说明。 8. The main idea of the passage is ______. A. the oil prices in the world were stable though Iraq has stopped oil deliveries B. OPEC has controlled the oil price to stay within a margin of 22 to 28 dollars C. OPEC will not increase oil production to make up the shortfall that caused by Iraq D. oil is connected with people's daily life 8.答案及解析: C。文章开头就点明了OPEC对伊拉克暂停供油的态度,下文又进行了分述。查看更多
