2.动词的语态、语气也是语法填by,就应该用被动语态。对含有条件状语从句的复合句需仔细分析主从句的动词形式只要确认主句或从句中有一个谓语用了虚拟语气就可以肯定另一动词也用虚拟语气。另外要注重分析句子结构看清句中是否有谓语动词。如果句中没有谓语动词在填入动词时应考虑动词的时态、语态、语气和主谓一致。如果句中有谓语动词空格处就应考虑填非谓语动词。【例】 Tom______(fire) because of his carelessness.解析:不难看出全句的意思是:由于太粗心汤姆被解雇了。答案:was fired【例】 If you had followed my advice________(pass) the examination.
解析:条件从句中的谓语had followed表示与过去事实相反是虚拟语气主句的谓语要与之呼应所以答案为 would have passed。答案:would have passed【例】 ________(frighten) by the fire解析:句中有谓语动词ran空格处考虑填非谓语动词。后有by用过去分词表被动。答案:Frightened

In the United States,we often say that “dogs are man's best friends”.While it is true that dogs are popular pets,it is also true that in some parts of the world, a dog bite can trigger a painful death.In fact,about 70,000 people worldwide die of rabies every year.
Rabies is a viral infection that people get mainly through dog bites.It is uncommon in the West.But in India,and other parts of Asia and subSaharan Africa,dogs that have not received antirabies vaccine(疫苗)continue to threaten public health.After a rabid dog bites someone(无理性的)fear of water.They shake violently.Then they go into a coma and almost always die.tion,vaccination can still prevent infection.
Scientists say vaccinating dogs can effectively get rid of rabies outbreaks in dog populations. And this will have a domino effect.But many developing countries do not have dog vaccination systems in place.Therefore,rabies still kills 70,000 people around the world every year.Most victims are children.
Animal scientists are calling for mass vaccination of dogs as a way to get rid of rabies.One example of where this worked very well is in the African country of Tanzania.Public health officials there set up dog vaccination centers in 180 villages.Before the vaccination centers were set up,there were,on average,50 rabies deaths every year in Tanzania.After the centers began working,that number dropped to nearly zero.
Guy Palmer is the director of the School forGlobal Animal Health at Washington State University.He coauthored the study in Tanzania.Mr Palmer says researchers found that vaccinating 70 percent of dogs wiped out rabies as a human threat.
