The compasses are big, drawing a circle with ease, while the pencil is small, drawing a line with great effort. I think the compasses are reasonable to be proud because no one else can do the job better. At the same time, however, he should realize the pencil has his own advantages. The pencil can do other shapes better than the compasses, even pictures.

But it’s more difficult to find my missing keys with snow ______ the ground.‎ A．covered B．cover C．to cover D．covering 解析：本题考查with复合结构做宾补的非谓语动词形式。snow和cover在逻辑上是主谓关系，因此此处用现在分词。‎ 答案：D ‎(3)He ran after the dog, ______.‎ A．stick in his hand B．stick in hand C．a stick in his hand D．having a stick in hand 解析：由“名词＋介词短语”构成的独立主格结构中，当介词是in时，其前后的两个名词均不加任何成分(物主代词或冠词)，但with的复合结构不受此限制。C项中缺少with，故可排除。B项是独立主格结构做伴随状语。‎ 答案：B ‎(4)The boys were happily making a snowman, ______ with cold.‎ A．their faces red ‎ B．their faces were red C．their faces turned red ‎ D．their faces to be red 解析：本题考查由“名词＋形容词”构成的独立主格结构做伴随状语。‎ 答案：A ‎(5)He was so tired that he fell asleep quickly, the light over his bed ______.‎ A．burn B．went on C．lighted D．on 解析：考查“名词＋副词”构成的独立主格结构做伴随状语。选项中，on为副词，表示“已连接，处于工作状态或使用中”。因此，此处应选D做伴随状语。‎ 答案：D 高 效 作 业 自我测评·技能备考 Ⅰ.单词拼写 ‎1．The match had to be c______________ because of the bad weather.‎ ‎2．My time is p____________； I can only give you a few minutes.‎ ‎3．She recognized the p__________ for error in the method being used.‎ ‎4．I think it’s an a____________ mistake the way they treat that child.‎ cancelled　‎ precious potential absolute ‎5．The f___________ of Rome are famed for their architectural beauty.‎ ‎6．It's __________ (保证) to rain when you want to go out.‎ ‎7．The car drew up ___________(在……旁) the pub.‎ ‎8．The area is flooded, as frequently happens during the ___________ (台风)．‎ ‎9．After a long journey in this hot weather, I was ‎ ‎____________ (出汗) all over.‎ fountains　‎ guaranteed alongside typhoon sweating ‎ ‎10．She __________ (颤抖) to think what might have happened to him.‎ trembled ‎ Ⅱ .单项选择 ‎1．—People should spare no effort to protect the environment.‎ ‎—______ Air pollution, as is known to all, does harm to our health.‎ A．All right.
