几道非谓语动词作1. He walked in, _____A____ a book in his hand, went to a table near the window and sat down in silence.A. carryingB. carriedC. to carryD. having carried【解析】答案选A。

此题考查分词作状语的用法。

首先不定式表示目的和将来可以排除；having done强调动作的完成，不符合题意，只剩下A和B，这是一个并列句，句中有三个谓语动词walked in, went to 和sat down。

句中的carrying a book in his hand是现在分词，用作状语，修饰walked in，表伴随。

提醒：此题易错选B。

2. _____B_____for many years, the novelist suddenly became famous.A. having ignoredB. Having been ignoredC. to have been ignoredD. to be ignored【解析】正确答案为B。

此题考查分词作状语。

因ignored和the novelist是动宾关系，而不是主谓关系，即“被忽视”，故可排除表主动意义的A。

至于C和D，首先可排除D，因为它是不定式的一般式，表示将来意义，与句意不符；而C是不定式的完成式，一般不作时间状语。

3. _____B_____ to the consumers, more and more advertisers are using images of pop stars in their ads. A. Appealed B. to appealed C. appealing D. to be appealed【解析】正确答案为B，考查不定式的用法。

首先可以排除A和D，因为appeal是不及物动词，不能用过去分词表被动，从句意来看，题目想表达的是为了吸引消费者，不定式作目的状语，而现在分词一般情况下不能表目的，所以选B。

One of the main advantages of online learning is that it allows individuals toaccess education from anywhere at any time. This flexibility is especially beneficial for working professionals or individuals with busy schedules. Additionally, online learning provides a wide range of courses and programs to choose from, allowing individuals to tailor their learning experience to their specific needs and interests.However, online learning also has its disadvantages. One of the main drawbacks is the lack of face-to-face interaction with instructors and peers. This can make it difficult for some individuals to stay motivated and engaged in the learning process. Additionally, online learning requires a high level of self-discipline and time management skills, as students must set their own schedules and deadlines.In conclusion, online learning has both advantages and disadvantages. While it offers convenience and flexibility, it also requires self-discipline and can lack the personal interaction found in traditional classroom settings. Ultimately, the effectiveness of online learning depends on the individual's learning style and ability to adapt to this mode of education.篇2Henan Province 2024 Adult College Entrance Examination English Test Questions and AnswersPart I Listening Comprehension (30 points)Section A Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.
