5、o be discovered Cdiscovering Dhaving discovered答案A解析句意为：迄今为止，没有人认领在图书馆里发现的钱。本题考查非谓语动词作定语，因discover与money之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词作定语。4Im calling to enquire about the position_in yesterdays China Daily.Aadvertised Bto be advertised Cadvertising Dhaving advertised答案A解析句意为：我打电话来咨询一下有关昨天在中国日报上刊登广告(招聘)的职位。adver

7、hrases _ only to people with specific knowledge.Abeing known Bhaving been known Cto be known Dknown答案D解析句意为：不要用那些只有专业人士才认识的单词或短语。words or phrases应是被认识，因此，应用过去分词known作后置定语表示被动。7Mr.Smith，_of the_speech，started to read a novel.Atired；boring Btiring；bored Ctired；bored Dtiring；boring答案A解析过去分词修饰的是人，现在分词修饰
8、的是物，所以此题选择A。8The pilot asked all the passengers on board to remain_as the plane was making a landing.Aseat Bseating Cseated Dto be seating答案C解析seated在这儿起形容词的作用，作remain的表语，“保持原来的状态”。9This is the problem_so quickly last evening.Ahaving been settled BsettleCbe settled Dsettled答案D解析句子的表语the problem和sett
9、le之间存在着动宾关系，此处考查的是过去分词作后置定语的用法。10I dont know the girl_in the storm.Ato catch Bcaught Ccatching Dto be catching答案B解析句子的宾语the girl和catch之间存在着动宾关系，此处考查的是过去分词作后置定语的用法。11The little boy _ by his father left home last night.Ahaving been scolded Bto be scolded Cscolded Dwho has been scolded答案C解析scolded by h
10、is father过去分词短语作后置定语，表被动完成，相当于定语从句who was scolded by his father。12The _ look on his face showed that he hadnt expected it.Aastonished Bastonishing Cbeing astonished Dhaving astonished答案A解析分词作定语修饰名词置于名词之前时，一般只能用单个的分词，不能使用being done或having done来修饰，由此排除C项和D项；修饰look/expression等表示“表情”的单词时，多用过去分词，不用现在分词，由
11、此排除B项，确定答案为astonished。13His ability_in those years was praised by all of us.Ashowing Bbe showing Cshown Dwas shown答案C解析句子的主干部分是His ability was praised by all of us.，句子的主语his ability和show之间存在着动宾关系，所以要选择C。14There is a big dog_to a fence outside the house.Atying Btied Cto tie Dties答案B解析There is a dog.是
12、句子的主干部分，dog和tie之间存在着动宾关系，此处考查的是过去分词作后置定语的用法。15The Olympic Games, _ in 776 BC.，did not include women players until 1912.Afirst played Bto be first played Cfirst playing Dto be first playing答案A解析由the Olympic Games与play之间的被动关系可以排除表示主动关系的C项和D项；过去分词短语to be first played作定语应表示将来要发生的事情，根据句子中的时间状语“in 776 BC”
