1.(2011年海淀区第二学期期中练习)The scientist was rewarded by the government for ________such a great contribution to the country.
A.make B.making
C.being made D.having made
解析:选D。考查非谓语动词。在介词for的后面要用动名词形式,在获奖前贡献已经做出了,所以要用其完成式。句意:这位科学家因为为国家做出了巨大的贡献,得到了政府的奖励。
2.(2011年海淀区第二学期期中练习)A few days after the interview I received a letter________my admission to the university.
A.offering B.offered
C.having offered D.to be offered
解析:选A。考查非谓语动词。offer和其逻辑主语a letter之间是主谓关系,所以要用现在分词表主动,相当于which offered。句意:面试后的几天,我收到了这所大学的录取通知书。
