题目内容
The washing machine______ in Shanghai _______ well.
| A．producing ,is worked | B．produced, works |
| C．was produced, works. | D．producing, words |
B
解析试题分析：句意：这种产自上海的洗衣机运行良好。结合语境可知前文是非谓语动词作定语，下文是谓语动词，描述客观性动作用一般现在时态。主语是单数，故谓语动词用单数形式。过去分词作定语表示发生过的被动的动作，现在分词表示正在进行的伴随性动作，结合语境可知选B。
考点：非谓语动词
点评：非谓语动词的用法比较固定，区别的主要办法一是和被修饰词的关系。一般现在分词和被修饰词是主谓关系，过去分词和被修饰词是动宾关系。二是表示动作状态的不同，现在分词表示正在进行的伴随性动作，过去分词表示发生过的被动的动作，不定式表示具体的将要进行的动作。掌握这两点，基本就能完成此类问题。
本题难点就是确定所给选项在句子中充当的句子成分，这可以通过分析原题的句子成分来确定。如果原文不缺少句子成分，则是需要非谓语动词。如果原题谓语不完整，则有可能是谓语动词。
Dear sir,
I read your story (of the 4th February) about the cost of living in the country rather than in the town, and I agree with most of your opinions.My husband and I lived in the middle of Horlton until two years ago a seaside (海边) town of nearly five hundred thousand people.When my husband stopped working, we moved to our present house in a small village at the foot of Roland Hill, and there is no doubt (疑问) that our costs are higher now.
I have to do my shopping in small shops, where the food is more expensive than in city supermarkets; it costs more to travel by bus; and because the men who come to mend the television or the washing-machine, have to come further, we have to pay them more.
But it does not cost us much to enjoy what is beautiful in the country; and peace and quiet are cheap.It takes many people a lot of time and money to drive into the country to enjoy the simple things of life; yet we can enjoy them just by going out of the front door.It costs more to live here than it did in Horlton, but now life really is worth (值得) living.
Yours faithfully,
Edith Randall (Mrs)
