首先应用make的不定式形式表示shout的目的，可排除不能表示目的的A、C两项；既然大声说话，其目的不是让自己听到，而是为了让别人听到，即“让自己被听到”，所以应用hear的过去分词形式作补语。

11. ________ too early to the foreign language study, according to some experts, may lead to some unfavorable outcomes.
A. Exposing    B. Having exposed    C. Being exposed    D. Exposed
参考答案：
C
【详解】考查动名词做主语。本句谓语发为may lead to…..，可知前面的成分为主语。在英语中名词、代词、动名词、不定式或主语从句做主语。短语be exposing to….接触…..；AB项动词expose后面要接宾语，D项不能单独做主语。所以动名词短语being exposed to….为句子的主语。句意：在一些专家看来，过早接触外语学习也许会导致一些不好的结果。故C项正确。
