29、语序。弗兰茨不但认识她，而且还是她的同班同学。否定词放在句首，助动词或be动词要放在主语的前面。本句是not only. but(also)连接的句子。问题:3. Jerry seldom came to the laboratory, _ he?A.did he?B.didnt he?C.does him?D.doesnt he?答案:A附加疑问句。杰瑞很少去实验室，是吗?陈述句中如果出现seldom，hardly， scarcely，barely，few，little等表示否定意义的词时，要用肯定的附加疑问句。问题:4.

33、time构成的分句也没有从句引导词引导，因此不能构成单独的句子，而只能成为独立结构，表示条件。其中，time作permit逻辑上的主语，因此用主动形式permitting。故选D。问题:10. Courage, intelligence, and experience all _ overcome obstacles.A.helpsB.helpingC.helpD.helped答案:C主谓一致。勇气，智慧和经验都有助于克服阻碍。B和D选项的句子缺少谓语动词，所以首先排除B和D选项。句子的主语是由and连接的三个并列的名词，因此谓语动词要用复数形式。故选C。Section BDirections

34、:There are also 10 incomplete statements here. You should fill in each blank with the proper form of the word given in the brackets. Write the word or words in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.问题:1. The headmaster told us that a scientist (give) _ us a lecture the next afternoon.答案:would

There are many small things we can do to reduce the (pollute) _ of the environment.答案:pollution。词性转换(动词变名词)。有许多小事情我们可以做来减少环境污染。根据句子结构，这里需要一个名词作动词reduce的宾语，pollute的名词形式为pollution

37、，意为“污染”。问题:4. I think the movie is worth (see) _ a second time.答案:seeing。动名词。我认为这部电影值得看第二遍。“be worth doing sth”为固定结构，意为“某事值得做”，其中doing为主动动名词。问题:5.

Learning how to use the Internet (effective) _ is very important for the students today.答案:effectively。词性转换(形容词变副词)。学习如何有效地使用因特网对于现在的学生很重要。use是谓语动词，应该用副词修饰动词，effective的副词形式为effectively，意为“有效地”。问题:9.
