30、分词。分析句子结构可知,a dangerous material和动词call之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故用call的过去分词形式。3have banned考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据该句中的时间状语“Since 2011”可知,该句应用现在完成时,又因主语many countries为复数,故填have banned。4harmful考查形容词。形容词修饰名词,空处修饰名词effects,故用harm的形容词形式harmful。5Studies考查名词的单复数。根据该句中的“have shown”可知,该句主语应为复数,且此处study作“研究,调查”讲,是可数名词,故用study的复数形式
