题目内容
The singer’s flight was _____ due to bad weather, resulting in the show _____.
| A．put out; to be canceled | B．put off; to be canceled |
| C．put out; being canceled | D．put off; being canceled |
D
解析试题分析：句意，由于坏的天气，这位歌手的飞机被延期了，导致了演出被取消。put out灭火put off延期，故第一个空用put off；第二个空，表示正在进行，且cancel与其逻辑主语“the show”之间是被动关系，故用现在分词的被动式。
考点：词汇辨析及非谓语动词的用法的考查
点评：词汇是学习语言的重要环节。要掌握好英语,记忆相当数量的词汇是必不可少的。英语中的每一个单词,不仅表达一定的概念,具有一定的词汇意义,而且在语音、拼法、语法等方面都有自己的特点。在学生学习英语的过程中,单词、词组记忆是基础。解答这类题目，关键是理解题干意思以及各选项词组的意思，可以像数学中的代入法一样，依次把各个选项意思放入句子中进行比较，不难选出正确答案。非谓语动词题目的解题思路，① 解析句子结构，确定设空在句子中充当的功能（如状语、定语或宾补）；②找准相关动词的逻辑主语，确定该动词与逻辑主语是什么关系（主动还是被动）；③ 搜索句子中相关的时间信息，确定非谓语动词的恰当形式；④ 将该选项置入空中，看是否能够做到字从意顺，或是否能传达有效信息、完成交际任务。

| A．What; put off | B．Why; put up | C．How; put away | D．Where ; put on |

Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in computers, she in special education. "Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say. In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.
Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder."
Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books-reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members-included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.
Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of .”
The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
