Section A
Directions: Beneath each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence.
1. Modern science and technology has __________ communication between people far apart.
A. made convenient B. made it convenient
C. made it convenient for D. made it convenient to
【答案】A
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查固定搭配。句意：现代科技使得相隔千里的人们可以方便的交流。此处是make+sth+adj，其中的形容词做宾语补足语，句中has made是谓语，communication between people far apart短语是宾语，convenient是宾语的补语，被前置。故选A。
【点睛】固定搭配考的是平时学生的词汇和短语的积累量，对常见的固定搭配要了然于心，了解每个选项的含义是做好此类题的关键，做题时可从句意着手，同时对于平时的学习要多进行积累词汇，考试时才能很好的完成。本题中因为空后是名词communication，所以不能理解成make it +adj.+ for sb to do sth 句型。
2. No matter how frequently ________, the works of Beethoven always attract a large number of people.
A. performing B. performed C. to be performed D. being performed
【答案】B
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意：无论贝多芬的作品被表演的多么频繁，它总是能吸引很多人。分析句子结构可知，逗号前为no matter how引导的状语从句，perform在句中作谓语动词，而状语从句中省略了主语+be动词，结合句意，主语the works of Beethoven和谓语动词perform为被动关系，用被动语态，所以原句为no matter how the works are frequently performed。故选B。
【点睛】
