Question

The relics______ the 12^th century is of great value to study the life and settlement of the local people.

A．that dated from	B．dated back to
C．which is dated from	D．dating back to

Answer 1

D

试题分析：句意：追溯到12世纪的这个遗址对于研究当地人的生活及定居情况是很有价值的。date from=" date" back to追溯到；relics与date back to或date from之间是主动关系，故排除BC，选项A的时态不对，应该用一般现在时date from,故选D。
点评：本题难度适中。不容置疑，高考将继续加强对非谓语动词的考查，试题的特征将继续呈现出“情景化”和“设问角度的多样化”的趋势，但试题的难度将会有所控制。
