答案解析:
1.本题中应该将Judging改为Judged。该句主语为“the techniques”,其本身不能做出“judging”,而只能是“be judged”,原句的结构实际上是“when it is judged by today’s standards”的省略模式,所以应该将Judging改为Judged。注意首字母要大写。
2.本题中应该将comparing改为compared。“comparing”表示主语所发出的动作,与其他事物进行比较,而根据句意,是将TV与其他媒体进行,所以应该是被动语态,完整结构是“when it is compared with other media of…”。
3.本题中应该将being删去。“being+过去分词”表示正在进行的状态,而句子中没有指出是正在发生的动作,而是过去发生的事情(根据后面的动词touched可判断出是过去时),所以应该将being去掉。
4.本题中应该将seeing改为seen。原句的意思是“宾馆从远处看象一只航行中的船”,其完整结构是“…when it is seen from a distance”,船本身并不能发生“seeing”动作,只能是被动语态,故用seen。
5.本题中应该在building前加being。此句中有时间副词now,说明是正在进行的动作,故必须在前面加上现在分词being。
6.本题中应该将see改为be seen。根据句意,“灯塔必须足够高,以使其灯光可以从远处看见”,完整的结构是“…to be seen by ships far away”。
7.本题中应该将consider改为considering。在此句中,前部分“Consider the great need for improving many aspects of the global environment,”实为条件状语,完整结构为“If one consider… environment,”,其省略形式为将其谓语动词变为现在分词形式。
8.本题中应该将permit改为permitting。“thus”不是连词而是副词,表示前面事物所造成的结果,后面一般接现在分词,作状语成分。
9.本题中应该将designing改为design。此句中design承接前面不定式结构,省略介词to,实际上为“to build homes or to design cities”。
10.本题中应该将asked改为asking。此句中ask动作与approach并列,承接前面介词by,表示“通过……途径来实现”,故应该和前面保持一致,使用现在分词形式。
