Question

You will surely see your improvement if your attention is kept___to the study.

答案是paid，请问为什么不是being paid
还有一个是John has really got the job because he showed me the official letter ____him it
答案是offering，为什么不是offered，句末的it是啥意思

Answer 1

意为你如果把注意力都放在学习上，.......。keep paid 本身已经有被动的意思。就不需要being了
2.解析：考查非谓语动词的用法。 在句中，现在分词短语“offering him it”作后置定语修饰letter， 相当于一个定语从句“which offered him it”，
