In China, most people think that the student who can get high marks in exams is a good student. However, will this kind of thought bring benefit to our Chinese education? This mark-oriented education system even worrys some educators. They have a different attitude. It is true that a student should be absorbed in his studies. But besides in-class study, he has to develop in an all-round way. Sport and after-school activities also play an important role in the development of a student. Most teenagers are suffering from the pressure of exams.
In addition, a good adolescent should be honest and kind to others. In other words, he never betrays his friends, if he does something wrong, he admits his mistakes and apologize without hesitation.

參考答案及簡析
1.D。本題考查獨立主格結構,因為前后主語不一致,所以前面分詞的邏輯主語不可以省略。It being Sunday相當于As it is Sunday。
2.B。獨立主格結構在句中作伴隨狀語, teeth 與set兩個詞之間含有邏輯上的被動關系,所以用過去分詞；look這一動作是eyes所發出,所以用looking。
3.A。獨立主格結構在句中作狀語,因為things與consider之間含有被動關系,所以用過去分詞。
4.B。分詞短語作狀語,因為ask與句子的主語（she）之間有被動關系,所以用過去分詞。5.C。本題考查“（only）＋不定式”與“-ing形式”作結果狀語的區別。“only＋不定式”表示該結果在主語的預料之外；接“-ing”形式表示由主句所產生的邏輯上的結果。
6.B。本題考查不定式作目的狀語,本題極易誤選A。其實 enjoy的賓語為fishing or watching TV。
7.B。因finish這一動作發生在I had a drink and went out之前,所以必須用現在分詞的完成式。
8.D。介詞＋關系代詞＋不定式的結構可以在句中用作定語，其作用相當于一個定語從句。9.B。本題考查非謂語動詞作定語。不定式作定語時,表示將來的動作；現在分詞作定語,表示主動、進行；過去分詞作定語,表示被動、完成。因為dates是被標在gold coin上,所以用過去分詞表示被動。
10.A。不定式作目的狀語。
11.C。分詞在句中作主語補足語。因sweat這一動作是he所發出,所以為主動。
12.C。Peter為邏輯主語，與sailing構成復合結構，作imagine的賓語。
13.A。can’t help but為固定短語, but后面接不帶to的不定式；Such being the case為獨立主格結構，the case為邏輯主語。
14.B。
15.B。lock與其邏輯主語應含有動賓關系,即 “被鎖在書房里”。
16.C。單詞psychology被列在 “P”之下,有被動關系。
17.C。but表示 “除了”,為介詞,當其前面有動詞do的各種形式時,but后接不帶to的不定式。18.A。當stop后面接不定式時,表示“停下來去做某事”；如果接-ing形式,則表示“停止正在做的事”。
19.D。expect后面接不定式。由題意可知,doctor與call之間是被動關系。
20.B。現在分詞在句中表示狀態。
21.B。with復合結構在句中作狀語,表示原因,意為“由于兒子很是令人失望。”
22.B。本題為強調句型，被強調的部分是句子的主語，所以采用-ing形式。
23.D。be lost in是固定短語，意為“陷入……之中”。變為分詞短語作狀語時，仍用過去分詞lost。
24.C。appreciate后直接接-ing形式作賓語。
25.A。本題考查forbid 的用法。當forbid用作被動形式時,構成be forbidden to do結構。
26.B。
27.C。由題意“暴露在陽光下太久,會傷害人的皮膚”可知應采用-ing形式的被動式作主語。28.B。start后可以接-ing形式或to do,但如果start后面的動詞表示心理活動的詞時,必須用不定式。
29.A。回答why引導的問句，一般用不定式；回答what問句，一般用-ing形式。
30.B。bear意為“容忍”, 后面接-ing形式；make fun of與其邏輯主語有被動關系,所以用being done形式。
31.B。expected there to be的形式相當于expected there would be...。
32.C。mind意為“介意”, 后面接-ing形式； hate后可以接-ing形式或to do兩種形式。33.C。look forward to（to為介詞）后面接-ing形式；film與show之間含有被動關系,所以用過去分詞作定語。
34.C。“特殊疑問詞＋不定式”結構在句中作賓語；left與didn’t know并列。
35.A。be satisfied with“對……滿意”,即satisfy與with緊緊相連時,必須用其過去分詞。
36.B。write所表示的動作與其邏輯主語有被動關系。Being written為現在分詞進行時的被動,表示該動作正在進行,與題意不符,所以選B。
37.C。不定式作目的狀語, 意為“她制了一些蠟燭用來照明”。
38.C。參見注29。
39.C。can’t help表示“忍不住”后面接-ing形式；表示“不能幫助”時,后面接不定式。40.B。fail這一動作發生在主句謂語動詞之前,所以用現在分詞的完成時,并且為主動概念。41.B。all over the hill and around the lake為地點狀語提前。wild flowers是長在“山上及湖的周圍”的。
42.A。who為have的賓語。
43.D。根據句子意思可知該動作正在進行,所以用being done形式。
44.D。本題考查offer與help的用法, 即offer to do sth.與help sb.(to) do sth。45.C。本題考查have difficulty(in) doing sth.這一結構。本句中 the woman had為定語從句,修飾difficulty。
46.A。be to＋have done結構,表示本應該做某事,但事實上卻沒有做。
47.B。本題考查不定式作定語的用法。根據send的用法，send sth.to some place，故選擇答案B。
48.B。blow這一動作是wind發出的,所以為主動,因此選擇blowing。
49.C。該題考查了動詞不定式的省略現象。由題意可知是表示過去的一種打算或計劃，在“was going to”后省略了前面的內容或動作，故應選C。
50.A。get the car starting意為“使汽車發動起來”；try doing 意為“試著做某事”。
