Paragraph: “Kiwi birds live in New Zealand. They cannot fly, even though they have small wings. Their soft feathers look more like hair. Many people enjoy hiking in New Zealand’s mountains. Kiwis come out at night to find food.” Which sentence does NOT belong in the paragraph?
“Hannah had always been the first to raise her hand. Since the accident, she sat at the back of the room and rarely spoke.” What does the contrast suggest?
Choose the correct verb: “Every morning he wakes up, ___ coffee and leaves for work.”
In which sentence is the underlined -ing word a participle (used as an adjective) rather than a gerund?
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The disease had an insidious onset.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The nurse saw exudate on the wound dressing.”
答案: A · Many people enjoy hiking in New Zealand’s mountains.
Every other sentence describes kiwi birds. The sentence about hiking changes the topic, so it does not belong.
答案: A · The accident changed Hannah’s behaviour.
Hannah went from eager to withdrawn after the accident, suggesting it affected her deeply. “Always the first to raise her hand” rules out her always being shy.
答案: C · makes
“Wakes” and “leaves” are in the simple present, so the middle verb must also be simple present: “makes”.
答案: D · The crying baby needed a feeding.
In A, “crying” describes the noun “baby”, so it is a participle. In B, C and D the -ing word acts as a noun (subject, object or subject complement), so it is a gerund.
答案: A · Gradual and hard to notice
Insidious means developing slowly and subtly, so it is noticed only when it is well advanced.
答案: B · Fluid that has leaked out of the tissues
Exudate is fluid that seeps out of blood vessels or tissues, often into a wound, during inflammation.
