2019年mpa考试英语真题——非谓语动词998

{01} ______, the conference began.

A.The candidates having taken their seats

B.The candidates had taken their seats

C.Taken their seats

D.Taking their seats

解析：
试题分析：考查独立主格结构。the conference不是take their seats的逻辑主语，排除C、D；当非谓语的主语跟主句主语不一致时，要带上自己的逻辑主语，B项不是非谓语动词短语，排除B。故选A。
本题选A。
{02}With a lot of difficult problems _________, the manager felt like a cat on hot bricks.

A.settling	B.to settle
C.being settled	D.settled

解析：本题考查with复合结构。A项表主动，B项表将来，而本题中问题还没有解决，经理像热锅上的蚂蚁，所以选择B，D项指问题已经解决了。
本题选B。
