20. With the government’s aid, those ________ by the earthquake have moved to the new settlements.
A. affect B. affecting C. affected D. were affected
解析：答案是C。根据句意和空格后的介词by短语可知，空格处应填一个表被动意义的选项；同时由于句子中已有谓语have moved，所以空格处不能再用谓语形式，而应用非谓语形式，故选C。过去分词短语affected by the earthquake在句中用作定语，修饰those，句意为：在政府的帮助下，那些受地震影响的人搬进了新家。
21. The match was cancelled because most of the members ______ a match without a standard court.
A. objected to having B. objected to have
C. were objected to have D. were objected to having
解析：答案是A object作为动词，译为反对、抗议、拒绝，后面一般跟介词to,object to sb/sth，object to doing sth，如果后面是跟从句就不需要加介词。例：I objected to such treatment.→I objected to being treated in such way.两者均是我抗议受到如此对待的意思。I objected that he was too young to do so.我拒绝的理由是，他还太小不能这么做 object还可以做名词，译为宾语、目标、对象、物体 此句是说，由于大部分成员抗议这个比赛没有标准场地，这场比赛被推迟了。由于object只有名词和动词两个词性，根据句意，此处应使用其动词形式，即反对、抗议之意。故选A。D中，object在were后做表语，可见词性为形容词，而object无形容词用法，故这个选项是错误的。
22. _________ in a white uniform, he looks more like a cook than a doctor.
A. Dressed B. To dress C. Dressing D. Having dressed
解析：答案选A。对于固定搭配，原则上按搭配习惯处理。(be) dressed in为固定搭配，其意为“穿着……”，句中的Dressed in…表原因，相当于As he is dressed in…的意思。

24. ________ not to miss the flight at 15:20, the manager set out for the airport in a hurry.
A. Reminding B. Reminded C. To remind D. Having reminded
解析：答案是B。此题考查的是remind sb not to do sth（提醒某人不要做某事），因句子主语the manager与remind之间为被动关系，所以remind要用过去分词，即选B。为便于理解，此题可改写为：As the manager was reminded not to miss the flight at 15:20, he set out for the airport in a hurry.
25. I like watching TV ______ to the cinema.
A. more than to go B. more than going
C. than going D. rather than to go

A. paying B. paid
C. to be paid D. being paid
