27、ave been recognized考查動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。根據語境可知,印度的這三位作家一直以來得到國際的認可和不斷獲獎,應用現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)。Arundhati Roy等三位作家與recognize為被動關系,故填現(xiàn)在完成時的被動語態(tài)。4.independence考查名詞。前面有Indias形容詞修飾,故后面應該用名詞。5.highest考查最高級。根據語境可知Amit Chaudhuri獲得了印度文學最高獎,故用最 高級。 6.it考查代詞。此處為固定句型It is a pity that.意為:真可惜。it為形式主語,指代后面的that從句。7.who/that考查從屬連詞。分析句法可知,
