　　【答案】D�？疾橹^語動詞和非謂語的辨別。首先看到and，判斷and前面缺少謂語動詞。排除A、C。而and后面已經(jīng)有謂語動詞，所以disappear應(yīng)該用非謂語形式。Man和disappear是主動關(guān)系，因此排除A，選D。突然，這個駕著金色車子的高個男人抓住那個女孩，并把她帶走了，消失在樹林里。

　　46. ___ in the air, fuels give off heat.

　　A. hoped B. to hope C. hoping D. having hoped

　　【答案】C如果選A項,則它前面應(yīng)有and,與主句構(gòu)成并列關(guān)系. 排除A. to get our support本身即表示目的，沒有必要再在前面加上不定式to hope表示目的,故排除B.而D項表示完成,從句沒有完成的意思.故選C,現(xiàn)在分詞短語作伴隨狀語. 句意是“他們給我們發(fā)了聲明,希望獲得我們的支持.”
