双基限时练(八)　Module 2　Section Ⅳ
基 础 夯 实
Ⅰ.单句语法填空
用所给词的适当形式填空(不多于3个单词)
1．________ (not; receive) a reply, he decided to write again to ask about what was going on.
答案与解析　Not having received　现在分词完成式作状语，表示缘由。非谓语动词的否定式not放在其前面。
2．Thousands of happy Rio residents gathered in streets, ________ (celebrate) the historic decision that the 2022 Olympic Games will be held in Rio de Janeiro.
答案与解析　celebrating　句意：成千上万狂欢的里约热内卢市民聚集在街道上，庆祝这个具有历史意义的打算，里约热内卢将举办2022年奥运会。residents与celebrate之间是规律上的主谓关系，故用动词的­ing形式作伴随状语。
3．________ (visit) so many cities in Thailand, he has learned a great deal about the culture and customs of the country.
答案与解析　Having visited　句意：在泰国游历了那么多的城市之后，他对这个国家的文化和习俗有了更加深化地理解。句子的主语he和visit构成规律上的主谓关系； visit发生在learn之前，需用完成形式having done。
4．Alibaba earned a profit of 6.42 billion yuan last year, ________ (become) China's largest online commercial company.
答案与解析　becoming　句意：阿里巴巴在2011年盈利64.2亿元，成为中国最大的网上商业公司。此处用动词的­ing形式作结果状语。
5．Each of the students in No.1 High School works hard at his or her lessons, ________ (hope) to go to university some day.
答案与解析　hoping　句意：第一中学的每一名同学在学习上都很努力，期望将来有一天能够考上高校。each of the students和hope之间是主谓关系，应使用主动形式表伴随。
6．More highways have been built in China, ________ (make) it much easier for people to travel from one place to another.
答案与解析　making　句意：在中国更多的大路已经被建成了，这使得人们从一个地方到另一个地方旅游变得更加简洁。此处应用现在分词短语作结果状语，表示意料之中的结果。
7．The party will be held in the garden, weather ________ (permit)．
答案与解析　permitting　句意：假如天气允许，晚会就在花园里进行。由于weather与permit之间是规律上的主谓关系，所以应用动词的现在分词形式，构成独立主格结构，相当于if weather permits。
8．It rained heavily in the south, ________ (cause) serious flooding in several provinces.
答案与解析　causing　规律主语为前面一句话，与cause之间为主动关系，故用现在分词形式作结果状语。
Ⅱ.单项填空
1．The lawyer listened with full attention, ________ to miss any point.
A. not trying B. trying not
C. to try not D. not to try
答案与解析　B　句意：律师专注地倾听着，努力不错过任何要点。考查现在分词的用法。空白处为分词作伴随状语。
2．________ in the queue for half an hour, the old man suddenly realized he had left the cheque in the car.
A. Waiting B. To wait
C. Having waited D. To have waited
答案与解析　C　wait这个动作在谓语动词的动作发生之前已经发生，故用v.­ing的完成式。
3．________ that she was going off to sleep, I asked if she'd like that little doll on her bed.
A. Seeing B. To see
C. See D. Seen
答案与解析　A　考查非谓语动词。seeing与主句主语是主谓关系，表示伴随，因此用现在分词的一般式作状语。
4．________ that she didn't do a good job, I don't think I am abler than her.
A. To have said B. Having said
C. To say D. Saying
答案与解析　B　此处是非谓语动词作状语。say的主语是I，两者之间是主动关系，且非谓语动词表示一个已经完成的动作，用v.­ing的完成式。
5．While watching television, ________.
A. the doorbell rang
B. the doorbell rings
C. we heard the doorbell ring
D. we heard the doorbell rings
答案与解析　C　依据前半句推断主句主语必需是“看电视”这一动作的发出者，即we；同时主句含有hear sb. do sth.结构，省略to的不定式短语作宾语补足语。
6．________ his telephone number, she had some difficulty getting in touch with Bill.
A. Not knowing B. Knowing not
C. Not known D. Having not known
答案与解析　A　句意：由于不知道他的电话号码，她与比尔取得联系有肯定困难。动词know与she之间为主动关系。
7．________ in the mountains for a week, the two students were finally saved by the local police.
A. Having lost B. Lost
C. Being lost D. Losing
答案与解析　B　分词lost与主句主语之间是被动关系，A、D两项表示主动，应排解；C项虽表示被动，但是为现在时态，与本题不符，故选B项。语 篇 提 能

Ⅳ.阅读理解
I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.
I no longer consider myself the centre of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows(誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion(提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure(休闲), it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e­mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.
It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes. It_is_so_easy_to_exist_instead_of_to_live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.
By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion (激情) as it ought to be lived.

C. waste a lot in life
D. forget the most important lessons in life
答案与解析　A　依据exist(生存)和live(过生活)可知句子的意义为“只求生存而不是真正过生活，是何等简洁”。
4．What's the author's attitude toward work?
A. Do it well to serve others.
B. Earn enough money to make life better.
C. Try your best to get higher position and pay.
D. Don't let it affect your real life.
答案与解析　D　依据句子Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion(提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house.可知作者对待工作的态度。
