passion and great courage to overcome any difficulty，inspirations of his artwill never _.a. break out b. run out c. work out d. pull out【答案】b【解析】run out 用完，耗尽，符合句意。break out 爆发；work out 计算，解决；pull out

up(建立友谊)不合适。句意：碰巧又见面了，露西和艾米高兴地在她们数年前中断友谊的地方重拾友谊(即：中断的友谊仍可以重新开始)。3.it was never clear _ the man hadnt reported the accident sooner.a. that b. how c. when d. why【答案】d【解析】 句中的 it 是形式主语， 真正的主语是“_ the man

controversy among british internet users, _ bothpraise and questions about individuality.a. drew b. drawing c. to draw d. having drawn【答案】b【解析】根据句子结构可知，这里不能选用谓语动词，由此可以排除 a 项；动词不定式表示将来的动作，不合题意， 排除 c 项； 由于 draw 的动作和 cause 的动作不存在明显的先后关系， 因此不用完成式，排除 d 项。只有 b 项正确，现在分词短语在这里表示结果。句意：有一位中国学生的看上去像印刷体的书法引起了英国互联网用户的争议对个性的赞美和质疑。9._ in the adult ceremony, the senior students feel they are shouldering heavier responsibilities now.a. swear b. sworn c. having sworn d. to have sworn【答案】c【解析】逻辑主语 students 与 swear 为主谓关系，而且 swear 的动作发生在谓语动词 feel 的动作之前，所以用现在分词的完成式。句意：成人仪式宣誓后，高年级学生觉得现在他们肩上的责任更重了。10.a russian plane broke up in the air, _ all 224 people on board which was believed _ by a bombplanted by islamic state.a. killing; to have been caused b. having killing; to have been causedc. killing; to be caused d. having killed; to have caused【答案】a【解析】第一空用现在分词短语作状语，表示结果；第二空动词不定式用完成式，因为是已经发生过的事情，而且 cause 此处要用被动态，故用不定式的完成被动形式。句意：一架俄国飞机在空中解体了致机上 224 人死亡，据信是由伊斯兰国所放置的炸弹造成的。11.watching football games on tv at home is one thing, going to watch them _ live is quite another.a. perform b. performing c. to perform d. being performed【答案】d【解析】根据句意可知，perform 与其逻辑主语 them 之间为动宾关系，要选被动意义的选项，而本题四个选项中只有 d 项为被动意义，其他三项皆为主动意义，being performed 为现在分词的被动式，作宾语补足语。句意：在家的电视上看足球比赛是一回事，看现场直播又是另外一回事。12._ an increase in foreign legal conflicts, china is expected to see the number continue to rise.a. to witness b. being witnessed c. witnessed d. having witnessed【答案】d【解析】china 与 witness 为主谓关系，由此可排除 b、c 两项；另外，witness 动作发生在主句动作之前，因此用现在分词的完成式，即 d 项正确。句意：见证了涉外法律冲突的增长，希望中国看到这种数字的继续上升。13._ into the final round of the asian qualifiers for the first time since 2001, chinese soccer still faces a longhard road.a. moved b. moving c. to move d. having moved【答案】d【解析】chinese soccer 和 move 之间为主谓关系，因此可以排除 a 项；另外，由于 move

a groups values and beliefs.what is considered acceptable behavior in one country may be a serious taboo in another.verbal taboos usually involve topics that people believe are too private to talk about publicly, or relate to ones manner of speaking.in many cultures, for example, it is considered bad manners to discuss subjects such as sex or religion in public.in some countries, too much volume of ones voice may annoy people.2. 3 for example, one of the biggest differences among many western, asian, and african cultures is the use of eye contact.in the us., people make eye contact
