1．——I usually go there by train.
——Why not ______ by boat for a change?
A. to try going B. trying to go C. to try and go D. try going
析：此题可根据why not后直接跟原形动词规律而一举确定正确答案为D。若将B项改为try to go，则要根据其与try going意义之别来确定答案。依据题干对话内容，乙方是建议甲方尝试乘船变变花样，所以答案仍为D。
2．______ a reply, he decided to write again.
A. Not receiving B. Receiving not C. Not having received D. Having not received
析：非谓语动词的否定式not应置于首位，B、D皆为错误形式。A项不能表达先于decided的动作，只有选C项才表没收到信在先，决定再写信在后，所以C为正确答案。
3．Most of the artists ______ to the party were from South Africa.
A. invited B. to invite C. being invited D. had been invited
析：―被邀请参加晚会‖，应选表被动意的选项，B不可用。D项少引导词who，也应排除。又因短暂动词的现在分词被动式不可作定语，C也应排除，只有d(＝who were invited)才是正确答案。
4. Planning so far ahead ______ no sense — so many things will have changed by next year. (2011•全国新课标卷23)
A. made B. is making C. makes D. has made
【解析】选C。句意：提前这么早计划没有意义，第二年这么多事情将会发生变化。此项用一般现在时表明这一客观事实。选项A一般过去时，选项B现在进行时，选项D现在完成时都与接下来的一句语境不符。 一般现在时表示经常性、习惯性或不依时间的变化而发生变化的动作。时刻表上安排的将要进行的事情也可用一般现在时表示。 现在进行时表示现在正在进行的动作，或现阶段一直进行的动作。非持续性动词(如： go, come, leave, die 等)的现在进行时表示将要发生的动作。
5. By the time Jack returned home from England, his son ______ from college. (2011•辽宁卷34)
A. graduated B. has graduated C. had been graduating D. had graduated
【解析】选D。从句动作是过去时，主句动作发生在过去的过去，因此用过去完成时。 过去完成时表示过去某时间或某动作之前已经发生的事情或存在的状态，即：过去的过去。持续性动词的过去式常与since+时间点、for+时间段、when/before+过去时的从句、by/before+过去时间等状语连用。
A. graduated B. has graduated C. had been graduating D. had graduated
【解析】选D。从句动作是过去时，主句动作发生在过去的过去，因此用过去完成时。 过去完成时表示过去某时间或某动作之前已经发生的事情或存在的状态，即：过去的过去。持续性动词的过去式常与since+时间点、for+时间段、when/before+过去时的从句、by/before+过去时间等状语连用。
6. She was ______ the bike for 25 dollars，but she wouldn’t take it.
A. provided B. supplied C. offered D. gave
【解析】选C。 offer 作―出价，开价‖讲，常有offer sb. money for sth.和offer sb. sth. for money两种搭配。此处是将后者用于被动语态中。
英语中有些动词可以有两个宾语，如： give, buy, bring, show, pass, offer, lend, leave, tell, write, sing, teach等，这些动词用于被动结构时，可以将其中任何一个宾语变为主语，而另一个宾语仍保留在谓语后面。
7. If they win the final tonight, the team are going to tour around the city ______ by their enthusiastic supporters. (2011•浙江卷19)
A. being cheered B. be cheered C. to be cheered D. were cheered
【解析】选C。 考查非谓语动词，因此首先排除B和D(前面已经有are going to tour，又没有连词，不可能出现两个独立谓语)。A和C都表示被动，区别在于being done表示正在被发生的动作，而动词不定式to be done表示具体、一次性、将要被发生的动作。句意：如果他们今晚赢得了决赛，整队将在热情的粉丝欢呼下周游这个城市。这里用to be done表示伴随
8. Bird’s Nest, who was reported ______ the world record in the running races.
A. breaking B. having broken C. to have broken D. to break
【解析】选C。 表示据报道用―be reported ＋不定式‖。此处用不定式完成时表动作已发生。此句中的后一分句我们也可以这样改写：It was reported that Bolt had broken the world record in the running races.
9. You ____ him so closely; you should have kept your distance.
A. shouldn't follow B. mustn't follow
A. shouldn't follow B. mustn't follow
C. couldn't have been following D. shouldn't have been following
解析. D should not have done 本不应该做某事 而在此表示正在进行，故选D.
10. The doctor said I was over-weight. If only I _____ less!
A. ate B. have been eating C. have eaten D. had eaten
解析： D if only后用虚拟语气。此句中表示与过去事实相反
