—Yes，since she________the Chinese Society.
A.has joined B.joins
C.had joined D.joined
【答案】D
【解析】考查连词since从句的时态。若该主句为现在完成时，其since从句为一般过去时。解答此题关键是补出答语中的主句(I have known she)省略了。
2.(2008年北京卷)No decisionabout any future appointment until all the candidates have been interviewed.
A.will be made B.is made
C.is being made D.has been made
【答案】A
【解析】考查动词的时态语态。A项为将来时的被动形式。B项为现在时的被动结构；C项为现在进行时的被动结构；D项为现在完成时的被动结构。本题的关键是句子的后半句“...until all the...”，直到所有的候选者都面试完，可知 decision 将要被作出。
(2)情态动词
1.(2008年重庆卷)—I can't find my purse anywhere.
—You________have lost it while shopping.
A.may B.can C.should D.would
【答案】A
【解析】考查情态动词表推测的用法。may have done和can have done都可以用来对过去事实进行推测，表示“可能已经”，只不过表示此意义时，can have done只能用于疑问句中。而C项should have done表示“本应该做而没有做”；D项would have done 表示“想做却没有做”。
2.—She looks very happy. She________have passed the exam.
—I guess so. It's not difficult after all.
A. should B. could C. must D. might
【答案】C
【解析】根据上文“She looks very happy.”可知她肯定是考试通过了才会这样高兴。must have done sth. 表示对过去肯定的推测，有“一定……”的含义。
(3)非谓语动词
1.(2008年四川卷)We had an anxious couple of weeks________for the results of the experiment.
A.wait B.to be waiting
C.waited D.waiting
【答案】D
【解析】考查非谓语动词的用法。句意为：我们焦虑地度过了几周，等待着实验的结果。wait与主语是主动关系，故用“waiting” 表伴随。
2.________that she didn't do a good job, I don't think I am abler than her.
A. To have said B. Having said
C. To say D. Saying
【答案】B
【解析】根据句子结构，前半部分是状语，意思是“我虽然说过她没干好工作，但我并不认为自己比她能干”。“说她工作没干好”的动作发生在“认为”之前，因此使用现在分词的完成时。
(4)定语从句
1.By serving others, a person focuses on someone other than himself or herself，________can be very eye-opening and rewarding.
A. who B. which
C. what D. that
【答案】B
【解析】根据句型结构此处应为一个非限制性定语从句，且因引导词在定语从句中作主语并表示物，所以应该使用关系代词which。
2.After graduation she reached a point in her career________she needed to decide what to do.
A. that B. what
C. which D. where
【答案】D
【解析】根据句型结构这句是一个限制性定语从句，修饰point，引导词在这里表示处所或位置，在从句中作地点状语，因此应该使用关系副词where，意即“在这一点上她意识到她该决定做什么了”。
(5)状语从句
(2008年湖南卷)________the Internet is of great help，I don’t think it’s a good idea to spend too much time on it.
A.If B.While C.Because D.As
【答案】B
【解析】考查连词。此处意思是“尽管网络很有帮助，……”，选项中能表示让步的只有while，相当于although。其他选项都不能表示让步的意思。
(6)名词性从句
________parents say and do has a life-long effect on their children.
A. That B. Which C. What D. As
【答案】C
【解析】根据句型结构可知本句是一个带主语从句的复合句，what在这里相当于the things that，其他选项都不够完整或不合适。
(7)特殊句式
1.(2008年重庆卷)Only when I left my parents for Italy________how much I loved them.
A.I realized B.I had realized C.had I realized D.did I realize
【答案】D
【解析】既考查倒装句又涉及动词时态的判断。若“only”置于句首后面紧跟状语，则主句应该用部分倒装，即一般疑问句语序，由此判断A、B项错误。C项动词使用过去完成时态，表示realize“意识到”这个动作先于left“离开”发生，不合题意，所以不正确。
2.—You should apologize to her, Barry.
—________， but it's not going to be easy.
A. I suppose so B. I feel so
C. I prefer to D. I like to
【答案】A
【解析】考查省略现象。根据上下文可知回答者是同意向她道歉，但又认为这不容易。应使用“I suppose so”表示认可，使用so是一种省略，代替了一个句子。
3.It ________we had stayed together for a couple of weeks ________I found we had a lot in common.
A. was until; when
B. was until; that
C. wasn't until; when
D. wasn't until; that
【答案】D
【解析】考查强调句型。这句意思是“直到相处了几个星期后我们才知道我们有很多相似之处”，这句是not until的强调句型，结构为：It is/ was not until...that。
(8)情景交际
1.—Have you been wasting time on computer games again?
—________. I've been studying a lot and I need a break.
A.No way B.Not really
C.I don't agree D.I couldn't agree more
【答案】B
【解析】根据后面的回答“I've been studying a lot and I need a break.”说明后者不同意前者的问话，意思是他并没有真正浪费很多时间打电脑游戏而是学习很用功，故选择“Not really”。No way“没门”是断然拒绝对方的提议，“I don't agree”是反对对方的观点，“I couldn't agree more”是完全赞同对方的观点。
2.(2008年江西卷)—I think you’d better type this letter again before Mr.Smith sees it.
—Oh，dear!
A.Who cares? B.No problem.
C.I don’t mind at all. D.Is it as bad as that?
【答案】D
【解析】考查交际用语。前者说：我想你最好在Mr. Smith看见这封信之前把它重新打一遍。后者的答语前半段说： Oh, dear！(天哪！)，根据当时的情景，后面应该是说：Is it as bad as that? (有那么糟糕吗？)A.Who cares？“谁在乎呢？”B. No problem“没问题”； C. I don’t mind at all“我根本不在意”。均不符合当时的语境。
