Though ____ to see the strangers, the housewife gave them a big smile and said hello.

A.surprising                             B.to be surprised

C.surprised                             D.having surprised

 

【答案】

C

【解析】

试题分析:考察形容词用法。本句指的两个形容词surprising令人惊讶的,这是由现在分词转换而来的形容词,通常修饰事物。Surprised感到惊讶的,这是由过去分词转换而来的形容词,通常修饰人或者与人有关的事物。惊讶:尽管看到这个陌生人感到很奇怪,但是这个家庭主妇仍然给了对方很大的微笑并打招呼。本句指的形容词surprised是对句子的主语the housewife的情况进行的说明。故C正确。

考点:考察形容词用法

点评:由分词转换成的形容词用法是考查较多的内容。过去分词转换的形容词常常用来修饰人或者与人有关的事物如look, appearance;现在分词转换的形容词常常用来修饰事物。这样的形容词经常在句中做表语或者定语修饰名词,也可以在句中构成形容词短语对主句的情况进行说明。

第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Having divorced (离婚) my dad, my mom had to move frequently in order to find a job that would provide her with enough money to support the big family. For three years, we lived in the town of Parkersburg. On the first Christmas there, my brothers and I had been well prepared for a holiday without presents. But we had a surprise on Christmas Eve.
At midnight, we were woken up by someone shouting at our front door, “Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!” We jumped up and ran to the door to find no one there, but several boxes and bags! Not only were there gifts, which were our favorite, but there were also clothes and food. Each of us kids, as well as Mom, had gifts with our names on them. And the clothes all fit us!
Another year went by and on Christmas Eve, we again got boxes and bags full of goodies. The next year we moved. We were in the same town but across the other side. Mom was beginning to get on her feet. Since we had moved and Mom had a better job, we were quite certain that “Santa” wouldn’t visit us that year. But we were wrong!
Those “Santa” visits restored in me the belief in the goodness of mankind, though to this day we don’t know who our helper was.
When we grew up, Mom moved to Virginia. She had some extra money one Christmas. She sent it to me and let us know her decision. We then took action. My husband and children had so much fun buying and wrapping presents for the needy family we had chosen. On Christmas Eve, we allowed the excited kids to stay up late to be part of our secret “Santa” project.
Such satisfaction there was in being able to pass on the gift of love to others who needed it. And the gift goes on!
