A.honored B.honoring
C.being honored D.having honored
答案与解析:A 题干的主语为French author Le Clézjo,谓语部分是won the Nobel Prize in literature in October, 2008。名词词组a brilliant novelist为主语的同位语,过去分词短语honored as a child of all continents作后置定语,相当于一个表被动的定语从句that/who was honored as...。
24.—There must be a dozen pens in this house but I can never find one when I need it.
—Be patient. ________ is sure to turn up.
A.One B.It

28.The pig trapped in the collapsed building still found alive, ________ it had been waiting for days to be rescued, quickly became the hero across the country.
A.which B.when
C.while D.where

29.—It was careless of you to have left the house without turning off the cooker.
—My God! ________.
A. So were you B. So was I
C. So did I D. So I did
答案与解析:D 考查特殊结构。根据答语的前面部分可知说话人离开房子时的确没有关掉炊具。“so+主语+助动词”表示“确实如此”,而“so+助动词+主语”表示“……也如此”,因此C项不正确。
30.—Your mother won't agree with you on that, you know, this hairstyle is not suitable for a student.

A.be operated on B.was operated
C.was operated on D.be operated
答案与解析:A 同时考查语态、词组及虚拟语气的用法。当insist表示“坚持要求做某事”时,其后的宾语从句的谓语形式应该使用should do,其中should可以省略;“对某人动手术”应该用operate on sb.表示;因为主语为过路人,所以他是动作施与的对象,故operate要用被动式。
