Unit 1 Great scientists Ⅰ.单项填空 1.He became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people________to cholera. A.expose B.exposed C.exposing D.to expose 解析 expose“使暴露于;显露;使接触”,在此处作后置定语修饰people,二者存在动宾关系,故用过去分词形式。 答案 B 2.When he came back three hours later,they were still sitting on the sofa,________in conversation. A.absorbing B.absorbedC.to absorb D.to be absorbed 解析 考查非谓语动词。句意:当他三个小时后回来时,他们仍坐在沙发上,聚精会神地交谈。be absorbed in为固定搭配,意为“专心于”,所以此处应用absorb的过去分词形式,作伴随状语。 答案 B 3.—Pity you missed the lecture on nuclear pollution. —I ______ it,but I was busy preparing for a job interview. A.attended B.had attended C.would attend D.would have attended 解析 考查虚拟语气。句意:——很可惜你错过了这次有关核污染的演讲。——我本来要参加,但忙于准备工作面试。根据but后面的内容可知,设空处表达与过去事实相反的虚拟语气,所以正确答案为D项。 |
