Question

【题目】The study, ________ in the online edition of the journal Brain, showed that after one year of musical training, children performed better in a memory test than ________ who did not take music classes.

A. published; those B. publishing; these

C. to be published; ones D. being published; the ones

Answer 1

【答案】A

【解析】考查非谓语动词和代词。句意：这项研究结果在在线《大脑》杂志上发表，研究表明，上过一年音乐课的儿童在一项记忆力测试中的表现比没有上过音乐课的儿童好。分析句子可知，第一空是非谓语动词，作The study的定语，publish与The study是被动关系，故用过去分词；第二空后面有定语从句表示特指，用those或the ones。故选A。
