10. The millions of calculations involved, had they been done by hand, _____ all practical value by the time they were finished. A. could lose B. would have lost C. might lose D. ought to have lost 【解析】选B。这个句子中含有一个省略if，把助动词提到主语they之前的虚拟条件句，该条件句表示对过去情况的假设，而主句中by the time they were finished 表明主句也应该是对过去发生的情况的假设，因而应该选B。 11. If it _____ this afternoon, the basketball match _____ be put off. A. should rain; would B. rains; would C. will rain; shall D. will rain; will 【解析】选A。句意：要是今天下午下雨，篮球比赛就得延期。由语意可知本句为非真实条件句，表示对将来情况的虚拟，故从句谓语用“动词的过去式/were+不定式/should/could/might+动词原形”，而主句谓语用“would/should/could/might+动词原形”，故选A。 12. The H1N1 virus is very infectious. If we _____ this and _____ the first student with fever from staying in class, we _____ so many absences now. A. realized; prevented; wouldn’t have B. had realized; prevented; had C. had realized; had prevented; wouldn’t have had D. had realized; prevented; wouldn’t have 【解析】选D。考查混合虚拟语气句。虚拟语气用于条件句，条件状语从句与过去事实相反，应用had done; 主句与现在事实相反，应用would/should/could/might 加动词原形。条件句中并列的谓语可以共用助动词。 Ⅰ. 单项填空 1. The reason _____ he gave for being late was _____ he forgot to use the alarm clock. A. which; because B. why; because C. which; that D. that; because 【解析】选C。由句子结构可知第一个空为定语从句的引导词，先行词为reason, 定语从句中缺少gave的宾语，应选that/which且可省略。第二空为表语从句的引导词，当reason作主语时，其表语从句只能用that引导。 2. I’m planning to hold a party in the open air, but I can make no guarantees because it _____ the weather. A. links with B. depends on C. connects with D. decides on 【解析】选B。句意：我计划举办一个露天聚会，但我不能保证，因为这取决于天气。link with与……有联系；depend on由……决定，取决于；connect with衔接；decide on决定。 3. I’m certain David’s told you his business troubles. _____ , it’s no secret that he owes a lot of money to the bank. A. However B. Anyway C. Therefore D. Though 【解析】选B。句意为：我相信戴维已经告诉你他生意上的麻烦了，不管怎么说，他欠银行一大笔钱是人人都知道的。anyway不
