【NMET98】
20.Shirley________a book about China last year but I don'tknow whether she has finished it.
A. has written B. wrote
C. had written D. was writing
題解：進(jìn)行時可表一時的動作，而不表動作的結(jié)束。若選用B， 意思則是“去年Shirley寫了一部有關(guān)中國 的書。 ”這樣一來就與題干的后半部分所交待的事實(shí)發(fā)生矛盾。
答案：D
24.——Hi, Tracy, you look tired.
——I am tired. I ____________ the living room all day.
A. painted B. had painted
C. have been painting D. have painted
題解：（1）題干中的"all day"有強(qiáng)調(diào)作用，使用現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時與之配合使用。
（2）觀察下面句子中現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時的用法。
They have been meeting together weekly now for two years.
答案：C
【NMET97】
10. I first met Lisa three years ago. She _________ at aradio shop at the time.
A. has worked B. was working
C. had been working D. had worked
題解：題干中的'at the time=three years ago'， 與過去時態(tài)連用；選用過去進(jìn)行時暗含‘暫時’之意 。選項C、D均用于過去的過去，與題意不符，故不用。
答案：B

題解：i.選項A中的進(jìn)行時含暫時之意，如：

ii.選項C中的一般時則表狀態(tài)，表“某地掛有某物”之意，如：
（1）The picture hangs now in my library.
（2）Above it hung an oil painting by Beryl.
iii. 選項B中的完成時應(yīng)使用其被動語態(tài)形式：has been hung，而且句子主語也要變化，如：

答案：A

9. Dr.Black comes from either Oxford or Cambridge, I can'tremember _________.
A. where B. there C. which D. that
題解：（1）該題實(shí)際上依然存在著在兩者之間進(jìn)行選擇的意味。
（2）將選項C代入題干，即正常表述順序：
I can't remember which university (or town) Dr Black comesfrom, Oxford or Cambridge.
應(yīng)語為：He comes from Oxford.
19.——I stayed at a hotel while in New York.
——Oh, did you? You with Barbara.
A. could have stayed B. could stay
C. would stay D. must have stayed
題解：選項A"could have stayed"表示“原本能待在一起，但卻沒待”的意思，暗含責(zé)備或驚訝的意味。 此題從語法上來說，屬于“混合型虛擬語氣”的范疇。與第9題的命題思路一樣， 出于口語化的需要，將原本 正常表述的內(nèi)容，從中間斷開，將后半段提到前面先說。
請見下面的演示。
—I stayed at a hotel while in New York.
—You could have stayed with Barbara (if you had stayed inNew York, but in fact you stayed a t a hotel while in New York).
類例：——I knew a little about French while in Paris.
——Oh, did you? You could have helped your parents.
答案：A
【NMET94】

【NMET98】

——They ________ be ready by 12:00.
A.can B.should C.might D.need
題解：（1）選項B"should"表示“按理應(yīng)當(dāng)…；估計…”。
①They should be there by now, I think.
②The poems should be out in a month at most.
③We needn't get ready yet; the guests shouldn't come foranother hour.
（2）選項A"can"表示“允許”，用在此情境中， 應(yīng)為顧客所說，是上一句的繼續(xù)。
答案：B
11.—Can I help you?
—Yes. I bought this radio here yesterday, but it _____.
A.didn't work B.won't work
C.can't work D.doesn't work
題解：i. 'it won't work' （就是不響）應(yīng)用在下面語境中：Although we've tried several times , it won't work.
ii.'it can't work' （不可能響）→指損壞，失去效力的情形。
'it doesn't work'（不響）→指沒工作的狀態(tài)，與損壞無關(guān)。
iv.NMET98 單項填空中的模糊命題
【NMET98】
8. I hate _________ when people talk with their mouthsfull.
A. it B.that C.these D.them
題解：這是it的較難的用法。it在題中指代的內(nèi)容十分模糊，可以認(rèn)為指某種情形，如：
Thus when he spoke, it was in a sharper voice.
下面是it其他的較難的用法。
（1）I take it you have been out.
（2）Let me come and stay. You can put it that it wasarranged before.
（3）You may depend upon it they are valuable.
（4）Legend has it that Wu Sung is buried at Hangchow.

v.NMET98 單項填空中值得關(guān)注的一種命題
23.Cleaning women in big cities usually get ________ bythe hour.
A.pay B.paying C.paid D.to pay
題解：（1）usually get paid=are usually paid;get=be
（2）get paid=get their pay
（3）由于動詞get兼有行為動詞與系動詞兩種用法，pay 兼有動詞與名詞兩種用法，又由于pay用作名詞時 ， 要與冠詞或相當(dāng)于冠詞的詞連用，使得該題答案的判斷過程甚為復(fù)雜。
答案：C
