- not having
- Not having had
- having not
- having not had
答案:A
解析:语法题。该题考的是现在分词的否定式,其构成为not doing,同理,不定式的否定式是not to do。本题中,现在分词短语作原因状语。此外,stand a chance of sth/doing sth表示“有可能或有机会做某事”。句意:没有任何工作经验和专业知识,约翰不可能获得那份工作。
249.She says more than one _______ dismissed from this company.(财科所2012年)
- have been
- should be
- has been
- had been
答案:C
解析:语法题。该题考的是主谓一致,more than one(+名词)虽然表复数意义,但谓语动词要用单数,可理解为,主谓形式上一致。这种情况同样适用于many叶名词(许多),例如,Many a graduate has a decent job.许多大学毕业生有一份体面的工作。句意:她说这家工厂被解雇的人不止一个。
250、Not only ______ much bigger than any planet, but unlike the plants, it consists completely of gaseous material.(财科所2012年)
- the sun is
- the sun, which is
- is the sun
- that the sun
答案:C
解析:语法题。not only置于句首,not only…but(also)…连接的并列句中,not only分句的谓语部分倒装,即:be动词或助动词提至主语前,其余部分不变。but(also)分句的谓语不须倒装。例如,Not only did Mary sing a song,but also she danced in the interview.面试中,玛丽不仅唱了首歌,而且还跳了舞。句意:太阳不仅比所有行星大很多,而且,与行星不同,构成太阳的物质全是气态。
