31. The lecture, _____at 7:00 pm laze night, was followed by an observation of the moon with telescopes.
A. starting B. being started C. to start D. to be started
【答案】A 【解析】句意：报告于昨晚七点开始，报告之后便是用望远镜观察月球。start在此用作不及物动词（就像Classes start at 8 “8点开始上课”一样），瞬间动词的现在分词作定语表完成意义或将来意义：We shall arrive too late to catch the train leaving (=which will leave) at eight.我们会到达太晚了而赶不上8点（离开）的火车。A tile falling(=which fell)from a roof shattered into fragments at his feet.一片从屋顶上掉下来的瓦在他的脚边摔得粉碎。The accident happening to her turned out to be a good thing.她发生的意外证明结果是件好事。
现在分词的被动式(答案B)做定语只能表示正在进行的动作或和谓语动词同时进行的行为.
不定式作定语表将来或含情态意义或被修饰部分有最高级序数词\onlynextlast或是somethinganything等不定代词等.
There must be many people coming to the party last night.
32.           hard you try, it is difficult to lose weight without cutting down the amount you eat.
A. However B. Whatever C. Whichever D. Whenever
【答案】A 【解析】句意：不减少进食，无论你怎么努力，要减肥是困难的。其他几个选项语义不通。however “无论怎么”在此引导让步状语从句=no matter how。
