Ⅰ.單項填空
1.Be quiet! Do you hear someone ________ for something?
A.shouting B.shout
C.to shout D.shouted
答案:A 考查非謂語動詞形式。根據(jù)someone與shout的主動關(guān)系排除D項。hear后接不定式作賓語補足語時應(yīng)省略to,由此排除C項。由Be quiet可判斷此處表示動作正在進行,故選A項。
2.Sitting in the chair beside the window, I watched the leaves ________ in the wind.
A.swinging B.hitting
C.striking D.knocking
答案:A 考查非謂語動詞形式。watch為感官動詞,后接動詞作賓語補足語時用現(xiàn)在分詞表示“正在……”。swing搖擺;hit重重地打、擊;knock用力撞擊;strike用木棒、石頭等的猛然敲擊,與hit用法接近。此處指樹葉正在風中搖擺,所以選A。
3.(2014·合肥高一檢測) I was greatly ________ at how he worked out the ________ problem in a creative way.
A.amazed;puzzled B.amazing; puzzling
C.amazed; puzzling D.amazing; puzzled
答案:C 考查非謂語動詞。句意:他很有創(chuàng)意地把這個令人困惑的難題解決了,我對此驚詫不已。be amazed at對……感到驚異;puzzling令人迷惑的。
