英语语法练习题(答案详解)

C. not inviting

D. not to be invited

B

2."_____ your meeting is!" he offered them his sincere congratulations.

A. How a great success

B. What a great success

C. How great success

D. What great success

B success 名词，保留远动词含义"成功"是不可数名词；如用来代替具体的人（成功者）或具体的事（成功的事情（东西））是可数名词。故排除C,D；A中how是副词，如改成how great a success就是正确的。

3. We must remember that _____fashion is not the most important thing in _______ life.

B. /; /

C. the; /

D. the; the

B 抽象名词不特指时，前不用冠词。

4. It _____ quite a few years _____ the accused was declared innocent and set free.

A. was; since

B. is; that

C. will be; when

D. was; before

D 如将A项中was, since改成is, since是正确的；即从句中谓语先发生。如用B项，是强调句，而强调句前后两个谓语动词在时间上必须一致（a）；被强调部分能还回原句中（b），即因为句中was declared是过去时, B项中is改成was；因为句中was declared是非延续性动词，在years后加上ago将"一段" 时间变成"一点"就是正确的。C 项前后时间不一致。

5. The professor said he could talk on _____ interested the audience.

A. any topic

B. which topic

C. whichever topic

D. the topic he thought it

C whichever已失去疑问含义，等于anything that，表示强调；而which topic中which保留疑问含义，译成"哪一个题目"，不符合句义。而A和D中缺少连词。

7.Modern science and technology has _____ communication between people far apart.

A. made convenient

B. made it convenient

C. made it convenient for

D. made it convenient to

A 题目中has made是谓语，communication between people far apart短语是宾语，convenient 是宾语的补语，被前置。如用B项,it是形式宾语代替不定式或从句。

8.I heard that you really had a wonderful time at John's birthday party, _____?

A. didn't I

B. didn't you

C. hadn't you

D. will you

B含宾语从句和定语从句的主从复合句，反意疑问句随主句变；但是在含有宾语从句的住句中主语是第一人称时反意疑问句随从句一致。

10.No matter how frequently _____ the works of Beethoven always attract a large number of people.

A. performing

B. performed

C. to be performed

D. being performed

B 在让步，时间等状语从句中，如果主从句中主语一致，从句中谓语含be动词，可以将从句中的主语和be 省略，即在how 后加they(the works) are，再分别与选择项搭配后，就会发现正确答案是B。

11._____ their real economic situations, they got some relief fund from the government.

A. Considering

B. Considered

C. Having been considered

D. Being considered

A considering "考虑到"，而considered "被认为"，根据全句含义，句中主语they和considering 是主动关系，因此选择项。
