(共3组,每组限时8分钟)
1.(2013·大连第一次双基测试)In the past several weeks, many cities in Northern China________ from heavy fogs, causing great inconvenience to people.
A.suffered B.have been suffering
C.were suffered D.had been suffered
解析:选B 考查时态和语态。句意:在过去的几个星期里,中国北方的许多城市一直遭受着浓雾天气,给人们带来了极大的不便。由“In the past several weeks”可知,此处应用现在完成进行时,表示从过去某一时间开始一直延续到现在,可能还要继续下去,且many cities与suffer之间是逻辑上的主动关系,故B项正确。
2.(2013·厦门第一次适应性考试)The earthquake, which occurred at 8:58, didn't cause many deaths, for most people ________.
A.got up B.had got up
C.were getting up D.have got up
解析:选B 考查时态。句意:发生在8:58的地震没有造成许多人死亡,因为(那时候)大多数人已经起床了。根据occurred可知,地震发生在过去,而人们起床发生在地震之前,所以应用过去完成时。
