B．beconsideredC．considering D．havingconsidered解析：本題考查獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)的用法。句意為：考慮了所有的因素之后，原來計劃好的旅行不得不取消了。本句中的consider與allthefactors之間為動賓關(guān)系，在句子中要用被動形式，因此排除C、D兩項，前后兩部分不是并列的分句，要采用“名詞＋過去分詞”形式的獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)作時間狀語，相當(dāng)于afterallthefactorsareconsidered，此處的獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)也可改寫成withallthefactorsconsidered。答案：AⅠ.完成句子1．TheproblemisthatmoststudentsprefertocommunicatewiththeirInternetfriends____________________(而不是父母)．答案：ratherthantheirparents2．Thereisnodoubtthatmyfriend，Tom，will__________________(定居在上海)aftertheShanghaiWorldExpo.答案：settledowninShanghai3．Althoughthetaskwasverytough，we______________________(成功完成)itontime.答案：managedtoaccomplish4．Theaudienceallovertheworld__________________(留下深刻印象)theopeningceremonyoftheShanghaiWorldExpo.答案：wasveryimpressedwith5．Thereisatower______________(在遠處)anditlooksthemostattractivefromadistanceof300meters.答案：inthedistance6．Don’tletme______________(看見)youdoingitagain，otherwiseIwilldismissyou.答案：catchsightofⅡ.情景交際1．(2011·陜西西安質(zhì)量檢測)—Won’tyougotothefootballtonight?—________.ImightstayathomewatchingitliveonTVinstead.A．I’drathernot
