现在进行时的被动语态
1．(2012·上海交大附中模拟)You are not allowed to go into the meeting­room.A secret plan ________ there.
A．is being made　 B．is made
C．was made D．is making
解析：选A。句意为：你不被允许进入会议室。一个秘密计划正在那儿被制定。由句意知应选A项，表示被动及动作正在进行。
2．(2012·东北三省四市联考)—What’s that terrible noise，David?
—Oh，I forgot to tell you.The new machines in the nearby plant ________.
A．were tested B．will be tested
C．are being tested
D．have been tested
解析：选C。考查动词的时态。根据问句中的What’s that terrible noise可知，这里应该用进行时态，噪音是机器正在被检测时发出的，所以用现在进行时的被动语态。
3．(2012·济南市第二次教学质量调研)Shirley still remembers the excitement when she ________ for a trip to Australia.
A．is being chosen
B．has been chosen
C．chose D．was chosen
解析：选D。考查时态和语态。句意为：Shirley依然记得当她被选去澳大利亚旅行时的兴奋。choose和Shirley之间为动宾关系，由语意可知这件事发生在过去，故D项正确。
4．(2012·济南4月模拟)—Flight MU257________.I must be off now.
—Have a nice trip.
A．is being announced
B．has announced
C．was announcing
D．had been announced
解析：选A。考查动词的时态和语态。从语意知“MU257航班正在通知(登机中)”，此处强调“现在这个时刻正在进行”的动作，所以用现在进行时,同时announce与Flight MU257又是动宾关系，故用“现在进行时的被动语态。”
5．(2012·南通一模)Now the world’s attention________the stocking markets，as they have a great influence on the world’s economy.
A．is fixing on B．has fixed on
C．is being fixed on
D．had been fixed on
解析：选C。本题考查动词的时态和语态。attention和fix on之间是被动关系，故排除A、B两项，再根据Now，可知应用现在进行时的被动语态。
