题目解答

答案

解析

本题主要考查动词的时态和语态。解题的关键在于判断主语和动词之间的关系，若主语是动作的执行者，则用主动语态；若主语是动作的承受者，则用被动语态。同时，要根据上下文的语境来确定合适的时态。

①

“volunteer”表示“自愿做某事”，主语“I”和“volunteer”之间是主动关系，且“volunteer”这个动作发生在“knew”之前，即过去的过去，所以要用过去完成时的主动语态，故填“had volunteered”。

②

“direct”表示“指挥”，主语“I”和“direct”之间是被动关系，即“我被指挥”，且根据语境这里表示将来某个时间正在进行的动作，要用过去将来进行时的被动语态，其结构是“would be + 过去分词”，所以填“be directed”。

③

“require”表示“需要”，主语“A great number of buses”和“require”之间是被动关系，即“公交车被需要”，且句子描述的是过去的情况，要用一般过去时的被动语态，“A great number of buses”是复数，所以用“were required”。

④

“drive”表示“驾驶”，主语“Many of the drivers”和“drive”之间是主动关系，即“司机驾驶”，且“drive”这个动作发生在“had trouble”之前，即过去的过去，所以要用过去完成时的主动语态，故填“had never driven”。

⑤

“schedule”表示“安排”，主语“I”和“schedule”之间是被动关系，即“我被安排”，且“schedule”这个动作发生在“was extremely pleased”之前，即过去的过去，所以要用过去完成时的被动语态，故填“had not originally been scheduled”。

⑥

“ask”表示“请求”，主语“I”和“ask”之间是被动关系，即“我被请求”，且句子描述的是过去的情况，要用一般过去时的被动语态，所以填“was asked”。

⑦

“feel”表示“感受到”，主语“the excitement”和“feel”之间是被动关系，即“兴奋被感受到”，“would start to”后面接动词原形，所以用“be felt”。

⑧

“inform”表示“通知”，主语“I”和“inform”之间是被动关系，即“我被通知”，且“inform”这个动作发生在“arrived”之前，即过去的过去，所以要用过去完成时的被动语态，故填“had been informed”。

⑨

“mark”表示“标记”，“allow sb/sth to do sth”表示“允许某人/某物做某事”，这里“it”指代“the road”，和“mark”之间是被动关系，即“路被标记”，所以用“to be marked”。

⑩

“pace out”表示“用步测”，主语“The distance”和“pace out”之间是被动关系，即“距离被步测”，且句子描述的是过去的情况，要用一般过去时的被动语态，所以填“was paced”。
