考查现在分词的典型考题

1. ________ many times, he finally understood it.

A. Told                     B. Telling                 C. Having told          D. Having been told

【解析】D。根据句意可知,句子主语he与动词tell之间为被动关系,所以可以排除选项B和C;又因为tell与understand之间明显的先后关系,即先被告诉然后才明白,所以选D不选A。又如:Having been told so beforehand, he was not surprised. 因为之前已经有人告诉他了,所以他并不惊讶。

 

2. They use computers to keep the traffic ________ smoothly.

A. being run             B. run                       C. to run                   D. running

【解析】D。此题考查keep…doing sth结构,其意为“保持……做某事”“使……不停地做某事”。又如:He kept the fire burning. 他让火燃着。I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. 对不起让你等了。

 

3. There is a great deal of evidence ________ that music activities engage different parts of the brain.

A. indicate                B. indicating             C. to indicate            D. to be indicating

【解析】B。从语法上看,“there be+名词”后面既可接不定式,也可接现在分词,其区别是:用不定式表示将要发生的情况,和现在分词表示正在进行的情况或通常性情况。根据句意,显然应用现在分词。句意为:有大量证据表明音乐活动与大脑的不同部位有密切关系。

 

4. A small plane crashed into a hillside five miles east of the city, ________all four people on board.

A. killed                   B. killing                  C. kills                     D. to kill

【解析】B。现在分词短语killing all four people on board在此用作结果状语。又如:He fired, killing one of the passers-by. 他开枪了,打死了一个过路人。I fell, striking my head against the door and cutting it. 我摔了个跟头,头撞在了门上,划了个口子。
