B 8.Or was he carried miles into space,
becoming the world’s first astronaut?
或者他被带到数英里的太空,成为世界上第一

He beat all the other players, winning the
first award.
他击败了所有其他的选手,获得了一等奖。 The fire lasted nearly a week, leaving
nothing valuable. 大火持续了近一周,没剩下什么值钱的东西。

词要用单数;若主语是可数名词复数,则谓语动词要
用复数。 (2)表达分数时,分子用基数词,分母用序数词。分子

一致,故可排除B、D两项;根据时间状语this summer
可知应用一般将来时态。

(江西高考)
A.forced
B.forcing
C.to be forced
D.having forced
解析
force所表示的动作和其逻辑上的主语the
new laws之间是主动关系,故可排除A和C;又因为
force表示的动作和谓语动词plans是同时发生的,
所以用现在分词形式。 B
课文原文
The Chinese discovered that the gas
escaping from the tube could lift it into
the air.
【例4】The house I grew up ____ has been

定语从句,而且定语从句的引导词已经省略，那么
该引导词一定在定语从句中作宾语,所以此空中要
填介词in,且其后不能再有宾语。

A.Graduating
B.Graduated
C.Having graduated
D.Having been graduated
解析
句意为:从哥伦比亚大学毕业后,奥巴马去

或是指“(气体,液体等)漏出,泄漏”,也含有成功逃
脱的意味。 (3)flee“逃离”,不表示逃跑的结果成功与否。
