试题
分析:句意:在阅览室里,我们发现Winifred坐在课桌旁边,她关注着她的小说。这里sb be seated,sb sit,所以排除B;
fix one’s attention on关注着,这里第二空是with的复合结构,attention与fix是被动关系,故选C。考点:考查非谓语动词的用法。
点评:本题难度适中。非谓语动词是近几年高考的热点,这里find sb stting或find sb seated,这里考生容易在这里出错,认为某人自己做为什么用它的过去分词的形式;
with的复合结构是难点,考生必须会判断宾语与宾语的关系。即学即练:Having been ill in bed for nearly a month, he had a hard time ____ the exam.A. pass           B. to pass    C. passed     D. passing解析:D。句意:因为have a hard time doing sth. 与have difficulty doing sth. 相当,意为“在做某事方面有困难”。
