A. Do B. Does C. Is D. Are

( ) 4. The population of the world ______ still _____ now.
A. has, grown B. is, growing C. will, grow D. are growing
解析:选B. 本题考查主谓一致和时态。The population of作主语,谓语动词用单数,后面有时间副词now,所以用现在进行时。
( ) 5. Half of the students ______ made the same mistakes.
A. has B. have C. is D. are
解析:选B. 分数作主语,谓语动词的数取决于后面的名词,名词是可数名词复数,谓语动词用单数,如果名词是不可数名词则谓语动词用单数。
过去完成时典型考题:
1. —What a mistake!
—Yes. I ______ his doing it another way, but without success.
A. was suggesting B. will suggest C. would suggest D. had suggested
分析:D。根据句中的What a mistake(真是个愚蠢的错误)和without success(没有成功)可知,“没有成功”的情况已经发生了。为什么说是个愚蠢的错呢?为什么没有成功呢?原来是说话者建议他用另外一种方法来做,很显然,“建议”他用另外一种方法来做在先,他照去做并且没有成功这件事在后,所以“建议”这个动作应用过去完成时(had suggested)。又如:
only those who had booked in advance were allowed in. 只有那些预先订票的人可以进去。
She emailed her husband that she had passed the entry examination. 她发电子邮件告知其夫,她通过了入学考试。

2. She was surprised to find the fridge empty; the child ______ everything!
A. had been eating B. had eaten C. have eaten D. have been eating
分析:B。句子前面说她发现冰箱是空的,她感到很吃惊,而冰箱为什么是空的呢?是因为里面的东西都被孩子们吃掉了。显然,孩子们吃掉冰箱里面的东西在先,她发现这个情况在后,而She was surprised to find the fridge empty用的是一般过去时,故孩子们“吃掉”冰箱里面的东西要用过去完成时(had eaten)。又如:
That the attempt to save her had failed soon became widely known. 想救她而未救成,此事不久已尽人皆知。
I was surprised when I saw the farm. I had imagined it to be much bigger. 我看到那个农场时很吃惊,我原认为会它会大得多。
现在完成时典型考题:
1. When you are home, give a call to let me know you ______ safely.
A. are arriving B. have arrived C. had arrived D. will arrive
分析:B。根据句子本身已有的时态可知,过去完成时had arrived不能选;再根据常识,说话人应该是叫对方“已经”到家后才打电话报平安,故选现在完成时。
2. Up to now, the program ______ thousands of children who would otherwise have died.
A. would save B. saves C. had saved D. has saved
分析:D。短语up to now的意思是“到现在为止”,指从过去某时开始持续到现在的一段时间,通常与现在完成时连用。如:Her life has run smoothly up to now. 她的生活到目前仍一帆风顺。 Up to now, the work has been easy. 到现在为止这工作还算容易。
3. For many years, people ______ electric cars. However, making them has been more difficult than predicted.
A. had dreamed of B. have dreamed of C. dreamed of D. dream of
分析:B。根据句意和句中的时态has been可知,空格处不可能填过去时态,故可排除A和C;比较B和D,B为现在完成时,与句中的for many years(多年来)相吻合,故选B。
现在进行时的用法:
现在进行时有时可以与always, constantly, continually, forever等表示动作屡次发生的副词连用,强调动作的不断重复的。如:
He is always losing his keys. 他老是丢钥匙。
He is always thinking of his work.他老是想到他的工作。
She’s constantly changing her mind. 她老是改变主意。
Some students in my class are forever talking. 我班上有些学生老是在说话。
这类用法通常带有一定的情感色彩,如表示满意、赞扬、责备、不满、厌烦、不以为然等。
