27、的被动语态，故选C。7C考查虚拟语气和倒装句。在条件句中，如果是表示与过去事实相反的虚拟语气，则在条件句中使用过去完成时。如果省略了if可以把had提前形成部分倒装的形式。had he come yesterday morning.if he had come yesterday morning.8D考查动词的时态和语态。由常识可知，谓语动词的动作发生在二战之前，很显然，这是过去的过去，所以应该用过去完成时。conduct 和experiments是动宾关系，所以用被动语态。9A10A考查连词。句意：一旦你承诺给她买礼物，无论怎样你都不能失信。故选A。11C12A13A考查现在分词短语作后置定

29、节理解题。根据第三段中的“Professor Shahabi says that his programme uses historical data to make predictions about traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house.”可知该导航软件能提前预测交通状况，故选B项。19C 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“With ClearPath，he says，a driver can enter what time he wants to leave on a specific time and date，and ClearPath will give the fastest route.”可知该导航软件是根据所给的具体出发时间和日期来确定最快路线的，故选C项。20D B本文是一篇非常有趣的说明文，介绍了名字的起源。21B细节判断题。A、C、D在文中都可以找到。A项可在第五段中找到依据；C项可在第八段中找到依据；D项可在第六段中找到依据。只有B项在文中没有依据。22C23D细节理解题。题中的关键词“a world leader”和第四段中“Donald means world ruler”可知D项正确。24A
