(原因狀語，替換：Because he was too old…)
②Working in the factory, we learned a lot from the workers.
(時間狀語，替換：When we worked in…)

誤：Seen from the space, I find the earth blue.
正：Seen from the space,the earth looks blue.
正：Seeing from the space, I find the earth blue.
B.表示時間關系的分詞短語可由while,when引出。如：

二、精典名題導解

A.saw B.watched C.noticed D.observed
分析：B。題干中until it disappeared in the distance 表明“他們在注視著火車，直到它在視野中消失。”see(be able to use your eyes to look at things and know what they are);watch (look at and pay attention to something that is happening;);notice(see,hear,or feel something);observe(see and notice sth.)從上面內(nèi)容可知答案為B。
題3 （上海 1994）
Either you or the headmaster__________the prizes to these gifted students at the meeting.
A.is handing out B.are to hand out
C.are handing out D.is to hand out
分析：D。句中表按預定的計劃做某事，而hand out 不是表示“出發(fā)、動身”等意的瞬間動詞，因此不能用現(xiàn)在進行時表示將來時，不能選A或C。另外either…or + 主語 + v.結構中的動詞單復數(shù)形式應與靠近的主語一致。
題4 （上海 2002）
It is hard for me to imagine what I would be doing today if I __________in love,at the age of seven,with the Melinda Cox Library in my hometown.
A.wouldn’t have fallen B.had not fallen

分析：B。虛擬語氣。
題5 （MET 1992）
We _________last night,but we went to the concert instead.
A.must have studied B.might sutdy
C.should have studied D.would study
分析：C。從but一詞表示轉(zhuǎn)折來看，前句應與后句相反，所以前句應為“過去本應做的事，而未做。”
題6 （NMET 1995）
It’s nearly seven o’clock.Jack ___________be here at any moment.
A.must B.meed C.should D.can
分析：C。題干中有be expected to，或具有一種對現(xiàn)在的推測意味，可用should.
題7 （NMET 1994）
I told Sally how to get there,but perhaps I________for her.
A.had to write it out B.must have written it out
C.should have written it out D.ought to write it out
分析：C。此題表示“過去本應該做而未做”。
題8 （NMET 1998）
-When can I come for the photos? I need them tomorrow afternoon.
-They ________be ready by 12:00.
A.can B.should C.might D.need
分析：B。此題表示對未來情況的推測意味。
