10、接不定式或“in+doing”。如果insist后面接了一个从句，并且意义上表达是“坚持做某事”，从句的谓语要用should动词原形，其中should 可以省略。但本题insist后面接的不是从句。8. _is reported in the newspapers,talks between the two countries are making progress.A.ItB.AsC.ThatD.What答案:B本题考查as引导的非限制性定语从句。“As is reported in the newspapers”是分句，修饰主句。9.He will come tomorrow.But Id
11、 rather he_the day after tomorrow.A.will comeB.is comingC.cameD.had come答案:CI would ratherwould rather意为“宁可;宁愿”。 would rather后面接从句时， 表示主语宁愿让某人干某事。这时，从句谓语动词要用虚拟语气，即用一般过去时表示现在或将来要做的事；用过去完成时表示过去要做的事。10. _ the programme,they have to stay there for another two weeks.A.Not completingB.Not completedC.Not h
12、aving completed D.Having not completed答案:Ccomplete the programme 与句子主语they 的关系是主动的，应该用现在分词形式，可以排除B项。not complete的动作发生在have to stay之前，所以应该用完成式的现在分词，可以排除A项。D项的否定形式不对，非谓语动词的否定式一般是在其前加not。综合应用.阅读理解Cannes will rock to the sound of a cancan dance this year when Moulin Rouge by the Australian director Baz

25、t says every scientist cherishes a childhood dream indicating his or her future success,but for YuanLongping,dubbed（授予称号）as “father of hybrid rice”,the dream is that he cultivates rice as plump as peanuts,and farmers can relax in the cool shadow of big rice plants.Yuan,71,won a 5 million yuan State
26、Supreme Science and Technology Award today,known as the Nobel Prize in China,for his outstanding achievements in breeding high yield-Hybrid rice,which has substantially increased Chinas grain output.YUAN LONGPINGYuan came up with the idea of hybridizing rice for the first time in the world in 1960s.
27、Since then,50 percent of Chinas total rice cultivation fields have grown such rice,which added some 300 billion kilograms to the countrys grain output.Furrows（皱纹）grown on his sunburnt face,a slim figure and coiled-up trousers legs would confuse foreign reporters who came to interview the most famous
28、 scientist in China,who would rather be called “a farmer”.Indeed,like many Chinese farmers,Yuan in his 70s and has devoted most of his life growing rice in paddy fields,but unlike those farmers,he reaps the seed from experimental fields only for hybridizing rice.The urbanite-turned-farmer graduated

32、n surely feed her 1.2 billion population with her limited cultivated land.The “Super Rice”yields are 30 percent higher than those of common rice.The record yield of 17 055 kilograms per hectare was registered in Yongsheng County in Yunnan in 1999.But even after that achievement Yuan wont take a brea
33、k.He has a dream,more realistic than that of his young age,that popularizing new strains of grain with higher yields around the world,can eliminate starvation on earth.The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)has vowed to get involved in the work of spreading the coverage of Yuans high-yield hy
34、brid rice,which it considers the best way to increase the worlds grain output.The FAOs 1991 statistics show that 20 percent of the worlds rice output was yielded from 10 percent of the worlds rice fields,which grow hybrid rice.“If the new strain was sown in the rest of the rice acreage,the present g
35、rain output around the world can be more than doubled.This can be a solution to the grain shortage,” the unselfish scientist.In 1980,Yuan went to the United States at the invitation of the International Rice Research Institute to share his knowledge about the cultivation technology of hybrid rice.He
36、 was also employed in 1991 as the chief consultant of FAO to bring his research methods to other countries.With the help of Chinese scientists,the acreage（面积）of hybrid rice in Viet Nam and India increased to 200 000 hectares and 150 000 hectares in 1999,respectivelyThe rice research costs time to pr

38、ulate his research.Largely due to his scientific progress,Chinas total rice output rose from 5.69 billion tons in 1950 to 19.47 billion tons last year.The growth rate of rice output far exceeded the population growth speed.Some people estimate Yuans actual fortune might amount to more than 100 milli
39、on yuan (12 million U.S.dollars),making him one of the richest people in China.But he doesnt know for sure himself,for he seems not to care about his own assets than the rice harvest.Some people asked him to move the focus of his research from improving amounts of hybrid rice to the quality and taste,which would be easier to do.But,the stubborn academician（学者）insisted that the amount of hybrid rices per unit yield still outweighs the quality,for his foremost task is to improve the grain reserve in developing countries.【个性思考】 Why do you think Yuan Longping can achieve so much？In my view_
