　　A to be operated

　　B being operated

　　C be operated

　　D operated

　　答案:C

　　本题考查虚拟语气，advise，insist等动词后是接that sb.(should)do sth.不用加to或变为动名词，其名词形式advice，insistence后面动词形式也一样。此题又是被动形式。所以直接为be operated。

　　27. The company has to_________ the benefits against the costs in the last three months.

　　A boast

　　本题考查leave的有关短语。leave alone不管;leave behind，留下，遗留;leave off停止，不再穿;leave out遗漏，不考虑。结合题意，你把钱包留在起居室里了，所以选B。

　　29. The dish_________ terrible! I don’’t like it at all.
