9、形式，又从句中有助动词had，should或者were，可以将其提前，省略if，从句If he had taken his parents advice可以写成Had he taken his parents advice.本题选A。【点睛】虚拟条件句和对应主句的动词形式列表：条件从句的谓语动词形式主句谓语动词形式与过去事实相反的假设had donewould/could/might/should have done与现在事实相反的假设过去时(waswere)would/could/might/should do与将来事实相反的假设过去时 (waswere ) ; should do;were

10、 to dowould/could/might/should do通常，在上面表格里反映的是非真实条件句的虚拟语气模式，从句和主句的谓语动词时间是一致的，如果两者时间不一致，此时就是混合型虚拟语气。混合型虚拟语气的使用要求“各自为政”，即从句和主句根据各自假设的时间不同，采用上面表格中对应的的谓语动词形式。如本句Had he taken his parents advice, he would not regret having made such a silly mistake now. 从句是对过去的假设，主句是对现在的假设。故A选项正确。15.

16、ightly 49. have provided 50. whom【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了由英国退休护士Gould所创办的蝴蝶儿童护理中心，介绍了她创办这一护理中心的缘由和主要贡献。【41题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：Olivia就在我的怀里，瘦骨嶙峋，茫然地看着这个世界。动词短语stare at与主语Olivia构成主动关系，要用现在分词短语做状语。所以要填staring。【42题详解】考查时态语态。句意：后来，她被送到了蝴蝶儿童护理中心。本句叙述过去发生的事情，且主语she与动词send构成被动关系，要用一般过去时的被动语态。所以要填was sent。【43题详解】考查介词。句

17、意：由一名退休的英国护士Gould在2010年创办的这家儿童护理中心是第一个为患有无法治愈的疾病儿童而设立的护理中心。句中介词短语with incurable disease做定语修饰children，表示状态。所以要填介词with。【44题详解】考查非谓语动词。句中名词kids与动词leave构成被动关系，要用过去分词短语做定语修饰kids，所以句中要填过去分词left。【45题详解】考查连词。句意：那时的中国是一个贫穷的国家，但她意识到就在这里她可以真正地做一些事情。根据句意可知上下文是转折关系，要使用表示转折关系的连词，所以要填but。【46题详解】考查名词复数形式。句意：用她所有的积蓄

18、，她建立了这个护理中心，并起名为“蝴蝶护理中心”，因为蝴蝶是希望、美和自由的象征。复数名词savings表示“积蓄”，所以句中要填savings。【47题详解】考查名词。句意：用她所有的积蓄，她建立了这个护理中心，并起名为“蝴蝶护理中心”，因为蝴蝶是希望、美和自由的象征。句中所填词和hope、beauty是并列关系，要用名词形式。所以要填freedom。【48题详解】考查副词。在英语里副词通常做状语修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子；形容词通常做定语修饰名词、代词。句中应该使用副词修饰形容词different，所以要填副词slightly。【49题详解】考查时态。句意：到现在为止，他们已经给大约

19、200多名儿童提供了护理。句中时间状语“up to now”意为“到现在为止”，通常和现在完成时连用，所以句中要填have provided。【50题详解】考查定语从句。本题定语从句的先行词是two hundred children，关系代词whom指代先行词，引导定语从句并在句中做介词of的宾语。所以要填whom。【点睛】本文小题7考查了名词。根据and可知所填词和hope、beauty是并列关系，要用名词形式。所以要填freedom。在语法填空中我们可以根据逻辑关系填空。通读全文以后，把握作者的思路，联系上下文语义，分析归纳，填入符合词义、句意和上下文情景的正确答案。例：On Sunday

20、 morning in August I went to local music festival. I left it early because I had an appointment _ (late) in the day.解析：根据上下文内容可知，作者“先去音乐节，随后早些离开因为要去赴约”，late要用其比较级later，表示赴约在后。三、 阅读理解17.
