【分析】
做动词填空需先分析句子的时态标志、语态(主动/被动)、非谓语规则,再结合主语单复数、时间状语等确定动词形式:
1. 主句谓语为过去式,从句描述过去的事实,时态需呼应;
2. 看到since引导的时间状语从句,主句用现在完成时,且the number of作主语时谓语用单数;
3. 介词后需接动名词作宾语;
4. 动名词短语作主语时谓语用单数,且表达客观事实用一般现在时;
5. 时间状语指向将来,用一般将来时;
6. 主语是动作的承受者,需用被动语态,结合语境为将来情况;
7. 主语是动作的承受者,时间状语为过去,需用一般过去时的被动语态;
8. at this moment是现在进行时的标志,主语为单数,用现在进行时。
【解析】
1. 主句谓语found为一般过去时,从句描述过去的事实,用一般过去时,故填had;
2. since引导的从句用一般过去时,主句需用现在完成时;the number of+名词作主语,谓语用单数,故填has dropped;
3. lie in中in是介词,介词后接动名词作宾语,故填opening;
4. 动名词短语Mastering an instrument作主语,谓语用单数;此处表达客观事实,用一般现在时,故填takes;
5. before this weekend表将来时间,句子用一般将来时,故填will point;
6. 主语personal things与steal是被动关系,描述将来情况,用一般将来时的被动语态,故填will be stolen;
7. 主语dirty dishes与leave是被动关系,时间状语为yesterday evening(过去),主语为复数,用一般过去时的被动语态,故填were left;
8. at this moment表此刻,是现在进行时的标志,主语the director为单数,故填is shooting。
【答案】
