现在分词与过去分词的用法
共同点:分词作表语时,它起着形容词的作用。
不同点:分词作表语时,句子的主语就是该分词的逻辑主语。但现在分词作表语时,与其逻辑主语之间是主动关系,所表示的动作一般与句中谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生;而过去分词则表示被动关系,所示动作一般发生在谓语动词之前或同时发生。

A. encouraging B. encouraged C. encourage D. to encourage
简析:根据语法分析可知, sounds 在此句中用作xx系动词, 待选部分应作表语 ;The news 对于动词 encourage 来说应是主动关系,即消息鼓舞人心。因此,该题应选A。
