1．(2014·江西临川一中等九校二次联考)________several important decisions based on emotion instead of reason，he felt bitterly regretted.

A．Making                                             B．Ha ving made

C．Made                                                 D．To make

解析：　考查非谓语动词。句意为：出于情感而不是理智作了好几个重大决定，他感觉极其后悔。分析句意可知，he与make之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系，且动词make发生在felt之前，故应用动词­ing形式的现在完成式作原因状语。

答案：　B

C．Seen                                                  D．To have seen

解析：　考查非谓语动词。句意为：看到盲人过马路时，汽车驾驶员不得不马上踩刹车。motorists与see之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，并且see与step的动作几乎同时发生，故用Seeing。

答案：　A

A．realizing                                            B．realized

C．to realize                                           D．being realized

解析：　考查非谓语动词。句意为：由于父母的极力劝说，同时这个男孩也意识到他已经浪费了太多时间，他决定不再玩电脑游戏了。根据句子结构可知，本题考查非谓语动词。分析句意可知，主语the boy与realize之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系，所以用realize的现在分词形式，选A项。

答案：　A

5．(2013·宝鸡三检)________around the classroom buildings，the guests were then taken to visit the library.

A．Having shown                                    B．To be shown

C．Having been shown                             D．To show

解析：　考查非谓语动词。句意为：客人们被带着参观完教学楼后，又被带着去参观图书馆了。分析句子成分可知，show和the guests之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，应用被动语态，排除A、D两项，又因show这一动作发生在were taken之前，故C项正确。

答案：　C
