典型例題
We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn’t even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold, She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said,“Very dirty floors.”
“Yes. I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them,”the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said,“But aren’t you working late?”
Mum just pushed harder, each swipe(拖一下) of the mop taking her farther and fart her down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to write in the big book.
After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said,“Thank you.”
Outside, Mum told me:“Dagmar is fine. No fever.”
“You saw her, Mum?”
“Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It’s a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush.”
1.When she took a mop from the small room what Mum really wanted to do was .
A. to clean the floor B.to please the nurse
C. to see a patient D. to surprise the story teller
2.When the nurse talked to Mum she thought Mum was a ______________.
A. nurse B. visitor C. patient D. cleaner
3.After reading the story what can we infer about the hospital?
A. It is a children’s hospital
B. It has strict rules about visiting hours
C. The conditions there aren’t very good
D. The nurses and doctors there don’t work hard
4.From the text we know that Dagmar is most likely ______________.
A. the story teller’s sister B. Mum’s friend
C. the story teller’s classmate D. Dad’s boss
5.Which of the following words best describes Mum?
A. strange B. warm hearted
C. clever D. hard working
解析 1.這是一道推斷題。從媽媽拿起拖布越過護士的視線到告訴作者 “Dagmar is fine. No fever.”這一系列情節(jié)中可以斷定，C為該題的最佳答案。
2.這也是一道推斷題。護士之所以沒有攔住媽媽，她一定是以為媽媽是位清掃工。故D為最佳答案。
3.這仍然是道推斷題。媽媽裝扮成清潔工正是由于醫(yī)院有著嚴格的探視制度，故B為最佳答案。
4.該題的最佳答案為A。從“You saw her, Mum?”和“… Dad will stop worrying as well.…”這組對話中可以推斷出，病人是作者的妹妹。
5.媽媽之所以能成功地躲過護士的監(jiān)視，在非探視時間內(nèi)走入病房，正說明了她的聰明。故C為最佳答案。

【關于“Saving the earth”的常見問題】
常見問題1: Saving the earth
問題：
The first textbooks _______________ for teaching English as a foreign language came out in the 16th century.(NMET 94)
A. have written B.to be written
C. being written D. written
解答:
解題指導：本題答案為D，相當于“which were written”。這道題難點在于過去分詞與現(xiàn)在分詞的被動式的區(qū)別。過去分詞表達被動和完成的概念，現(xiàn)在分詞的被動式表示“正被……”，而不定式的被動式則表示“將被……”。試比較：
1)The house built last year is our library.
2)The house being built now will be our library.
3)The house to be built will be our library.
在1)句中，“built last year”相當于“Which was built last year”，意為“去年建造 的”；在2)句中，“being built now”相當于“Which is being built now”，意為“正在建造的”；在3)句中，“to be built”相當于“Which is to be built”，意為“將要建造的”。
常見問題2: Saving the earth
問題：
_____________ in English, the letter is difficult for the farmer to read.
A. Written B. Having written
C. Being written D. To be written
解答:
解題指導：本題答案為A，相當于“As it is written”。又如：
1) Given more attention, the trees could have grown better.(NMET 90 )
2) Not having received a reply, he decided to write again.(NMET 92)
3) Being repaired, the library won’t open to the public today.
在1)句中，“Given more attention”相當于“If the trees had been given more attention”；在2)句中，“Not having received a reply”相當于“As he had not received a reply”；在3)句中，“Being repaired”相當于“As the library is being repaired ”。
常見問題3: Saving the Earth
問題：
The_______look on hisface suggested he_____that.
A．surprising；hadn't expected B．surprising；would expect
C． surprised; hadn't expected D． surprised; wouldn't have expected
解答:
導析：-ing作定語意思是“令人……的”，-ed作定語意思是“感到……的”，故答案在C、D中。他之所以吃驚，是他沒有預料到。D是虛擬語氣，說明與過去相反，即他預料到了，這與句子意思不符。答案：C
常見問題4: Saving the Earth
問題：
_______to the village,he said that was the place where I was born.
A．Pointed B．Pointing C．Point D．To point
解答:
導析：由空所在的位置可知，要填入的詞是句子的狀語。狀語與謂語應是同時發(fā)生的，而不定式作狀語通常表示將來時，故答案在A、B之中。分詞作狀語時，其邏輯主語應與句子的主語一致，所以分詞的主語是“he”，而“he”與“point”之間是主動關系。答案：B
常見問題5: Saving the Earth
問題：
The old man walked in the street,________.
A．followed by his son B．followed his son
C．a(chǎn)nd following his son D． and followed by his son
解答:
導析：此題是考查過去分詞的用法。followed by his son是過去分詞短語作狀語，表示方式和伴隨。答案：A
常見問題6: Saving the Earth
問題：
--How did Bob do in the exam this time?
--Well,his father seems________with his results.
A．pleasing B．please C．pleased D．to please
解答:
導析：seem后可跟三種形式， seem+a.,seem+to v.,seem+that clause,但從句意分析，主語是his father,表“人” 所以選擇pleased,過去分詞作表語。答案：C
常見問題7: Saving the Earth
問題：
They will probably agree；you never know,________.
A．even though B．though C．therefore D．a(chǎn)t least
解答:
導析：“though”在這里作副詞，帶有轉(zhuǎn)折之意；本句兩個句子之間含有轉(zhuǎn)折之意。答案：B
常見問題8: Saving the Earth
問題：
________,I used to go hunting at the weekends.
A．At atime B．Attimes C．At onetime D．At altimes
