解析:
【分析】本题为动词形式填空题,需结合时态标志、语态、固定搭配等语法知识逐一判断:1. 句首"Be quiet!"提示动作正在进行,需用现在进行时;2. 考查固定搭配"keep sth doing sth",表“使某物持续做某事”;3. "for+时间段"是现在完成时的典型时间标志,表动作从过去持续到现在;4. 主语是动作的承受者,需用被动语态,且动作发生在过去;5. "until"引导的时间状语从句用一般现在时表将来,主句需用一般将来时;6. 考查固定结构"too...to...",表“太……而不能……”,后接不定式;7. 主语是动作的承受者,且为经常性动作,需用一般现在时的被动语态;8. "as"引导的时间状语从句,表过去某一动作发生时,另一动作正在进行,需用过去进行时。
【解析】1. 由"Be quiet!"可知动作正在进行,现在进行时结构为"am/is/are + doing",主语the engineer是单数,故填is explaining;2. 固定搭配"keep sth doing sth",故填improving;3. "for more than three hours"是现在完成时标志,结构为"have/has + done",主语we是复数,故填have driven;4. 主语the young painter是inspire的承受者,动作发生在过去,一般过去时的被动语态结构为"was/were + done",主语是单数,故填was inspired;5. "until"从句用一般现在时表将来,主句用一般将来时"will + 动词原形",故填will remain;6. 固定结构"too...to...",后接动词不定式,故填to continue;7. 主语the hero是mention的承受者,为经常性动作,一般现在时的被动语态结构为"am/is/are + done",主语是单数,故填is mentioned;8. "as"引导的从句表过去某一时刻动作正在进行,过去进行时结构为"was/were + doing",主语he是单数,故填was considering。
【答案】1. is explaining 2. improving 3. have driven 4. was inspired 5. will remain 6. to continue 7. is mentioned 8. was considering
【知识点】现在进行时、被动语态、非谓语动词
