　　A.will be expected to extend

　　B.will have been expected to extend

　　C.is expected to be extended

　　A.to invent B.to have invented

　　C.inventing D.having invented

　　解析　考查動詞不定式的用法。句意：人們普遍認為是Charles Babbage發(fā)明的第一臺電腦。sb be considered to have done sth意為“某人被認為已經(jīng)做了某事”，當表示不定式的動作發(fā)生在謂語動詞之前時需要用動詞不定式的完成時to have done結(jié)構(gòu)。故選B。

　　答案　B

　　A.identify B.enforce

　　C.distinguish D.verify

　　解析　句意：法官不知道證人說的是否是真話， 但他會證實它。verify意為“證實， 查證，核實”; identify意為”認出， 識別”， 多用于在眾多物品中選出某一特定物品; enforce意為”加強， 強化”; distinguish意為”區(qū)別， 辨別”。

　　答案　D
