Structute【&SectionA'16．C[解析]need，require等動詞表达“需要……”時，要用動名詞或動詞不定式的被動形式作宾語，表达被動的含义，即needdoing或needtobedone，故选C。17．A[解析]whom引导的宾語從句作wonder的宾語；而在從句中，whom作belongto的宾語。此外，在宾語從句中，主語和谓語的次序应与陈說句相似，故选A。18．D[解析]由形容詞最高级修饰的名詞，其後的定語從句要用that引导，故选D。19．B[解析]since引导的是原因状語從句，表达“由于，由于”。其他选项与題意不符：although意為“虽然，尽管”，if意為“假如”，until意為“直到……才”，故选B。20．D[解析]在表达“规定”，“坚持”，“提议”，“命令”等動詞後的從句中，谓語動詞用“(should)+動詞原形”构成虚拟語气；在這裏，省略了should，直接要加動詞原形。這些動詞的主語從句，如Itisrequiredthat...，Itisorderedthat...，Itissuggestedthat...等，也要用相似的形式，例如：Itissuggestedthatwe(shoulD)studyhard．(人們提议我們应當好好學习。)'21．A[解析]该句虽然是直接引語的句子，但時间状語為bytheendoflastyear(到去年為止)，這样直接引語中的谓語動詞就构成了“過去的過去”，因此应當用過去完毕時。四個选项中只有A是過去完毕時時态，故选A。22．C[解析]形容詞的比较级前不能加定冠詞the，因此B，D不對的。elder重要用于指家庭组员，不符合題意，如：myelderbrother(我的哥哥)，故选C。23．B[解析]以“only+状語”開頭的句子要使用部分倒装，即把情态動詞或助動詞提到主語的前面，因此C、D不對的，但A选项的情态動詞也不對的，故选D。24．B[解析]假如主語為單数，尽管背面有with，togetherwith，aswellas，nolessthan，like，but，expect等介詞，但這样的介詞短語相称于修饰主語的定語成分，因此谓語動詞仍用單数，故选B。25．A[解析]takeover意為“接受，接管”；handin意為“上交”；putin意為“放進，提出，提交，插入”；leadto意為“导致，通向”。只有A项符合題意，故选A。'SectionB26．werecrossing[解析]根据句意，從句表达過去某段時间正在進行的動作，因此時态要用過去進行時。27．(should)send[解析]當表語從句的主語和同位語從句的先行詞是可以引起虚拟語气的抽象名詞時，從句必须用虚拟語气。從句的谓語動詞用“(should+)動詞原形”的形式。类似的名詞包括：idea，motion，plan，advice，demand，desire，order，proposal，requirement，suggestion，decision，recommendation等。28．improvement[解析]根据句子构造可以看出no後需要一种名詞作宾語，improve的名詞形式為improvement，意為“進展，進步”。29．tolive[解析]prefertodosth.ratherthandosth．意為“宁愿做……也不愿做……”。此句中，ratherthan後的live被省略了，故答案為tolive。。30．carrying[解析]havedifficulty/trouble(in)doingsth．意為“做……有困难”，因此要把carry变為動名詞形式。31．knowing[解析]目前分詞作原因状浯相称于as，since，because等连詞引导的從句，目前分詞与主句主語之间為主谓关系，故答案為knowing。32．height[解析]根据句子构造可以看出the後需要一种名詞作宾語，high的名詞形式為height，意為“高度”。33．emphasizes[解析]根据句子构造可以看出本句话缺乏谓語，因此空格中需要用一种動詞做谓語，emphasis的動詞為emphasize。本句强调了一种客观事实，因此谓語動詞要使用一般目前時，又由于主語“thenumberof...”是第三人称單数，因此谓語動詞也要使用第三人称單数形式。34．automatic[解析]根据句子构造可以看出空格中需要一种形容詞作定語，来修饰宾語temperature
