1 Man,no less than the lower forms of life,_______________ 2. _______________her agitation. 3. ________________,the easier it is to float on it. 4. _______________will they return to work. 5. Had ________________wed never have been able to beat the drought. 参考答案及解析: 1. is a product of the evolutionary process 解析:单数名词+with,together with,along with,as well as,accompanied by,no less than,rather than,in addition to,instead of,including,besides等+名词结构作主语时,谓语动词用单数。Man在这里是个单数概念,指全人类,因此句子谓语部分要用单数is。再如:A technician,along with some young workers,is working on the design.本题全句意为:人类,同生命的低级形式一样,是演化过程的产物。 2. More than one person has noticed 解析:many a或more than one所修饰的名词作主语时,谓语动词必须用单数。所以句子需填入部分谓语译成has,又由于觉察到暗示了动作已经发生,因此用完成时态。但是,考生要注意的是:如果more than one后面又出现了thousand,hundred等,动词就要用复数,如:More than one thousand graduates have responded to the Partys call and gone to work in the border regions. |
