题目内容
14.-Amy,please tell the people ______ for their turns to come to my office five minutes later.-Yes,sir.( )
A. | wait | B. | waited | C. | waiting | D. | to wait |
分析 ---Amy,请告诉正在那里排队等候的人们,五分钟后到我的办公室.
---好的,先生.
解答 答案C.
分析句子结构可知,"________ for their turns"是定语,修饰the people,the people与wait之间是逻辑上的主动关系,故应该使用V-ing形式的现在分词表主动和表进行,所以选waiting,可以把现在分词短语改写成定语从句"…tell the people who/that are waiting for their turns…";wait是谓语动词,waited是过去分词,表被动和完成,to wait是不定式,表主动和将来.通过以上分析可知,答案选C.
点评 本题考查现在分词短语做后置定语.现在分词作前置定语时,在逻辑上与所修饰的名词之间为主谓关系,也可改成定语从句;如果与所修饰的名词之间没有主谓关系,定语相当于一个介词for引导的短语.现在分词位于所修饰的名词之后做后置定语,与所修饰的名词之间呈逻辑上的主谓关系,相当于一个定语从句.如:a listening child=a child who is listening; a walking stick=a stick for walking.
