Unit 5 Why do you do that
1.She searched the top of the hill and stopped __________ on a big rock by the side of the path.
A. to have rested B. resting C. to rest D. rest
解析:本题考查stop to do sth.和stop doing sth.的区别。stop doing sth.意为“停止做某事”,这里的doing是动名词作宾语;而stop to do sth.意为“停下所做的事而干另外一件事”,这里的to do在句中作目的状语,省略了in order。C为正确答案。
2.He kept the light in his room ______ the whole night.
A. burnt B. burning C .burn D. to burn
解析:动词keep后的宾补用-ing形式,该状态一直在持续中。本题表示室内的灯一直在亮着,故用burning。keep(on)doing sth.有两个意思:重复和继续,如:Keep smiling.保持笑容。若用过去分词作宾补,则表示动作处于完成后的静止状态,如:Keep the window shut.答案为B。
3.Mr Alcott, headmaster of the school, refused to accept ______ of the three suggestions made by the Students’ Union.
A. either B. neither C. any D .none
解析:四个选项均为不定代词。either是指两者之间的任何一个,neither指两者都不,根据上下文可以看出,学生会提出的是三项建议,因此可以排除A、B两项。选项none则使语言出现累赘,故选项C为最佳答案。
4.They started early so that they ______ there in time.
A. got B. was getting C. could get D. must get
解析:so that是目的状语从句,谓语动词应该用 can/ could或may/might, so that= in order that引导的目的状语从句,该从句中常用情态动词may,might,can,could,will,would和should。所以选 C。
5.In the near future the computers ______ everywhere.
A. can use B. can be used C. will use D. are used
解析:根据in the near future这个时间状语,要用将来时,情态动词本身含有将来的意味,同时要用被动语态,情态动词的被动形式为:情态动词+ be+过去分词。所以答案为B
