解析
试题分析：一个电力工程师花了两年半的时间从事的项目，在没有商店的村子安装自动售货机，想给没有商店的村子提供一个解决的方法。
小题1:一个电力工程师花了两年半的时间从事这个项目。这里考查冠词，泛指“一个电力工程师，用不定冠词，electrical是元音开头的单词，所以用an。
小题2:这个机器配备有安全摄像机和警报。考查词组“配备有…”be equipped with ,因为主语是单数，所以用 is equipped
小题3:这句话用了非限制性定语从句，先行词是invention，定语从句中缺少主语用which引导定语从句
小题4:根据上文的句子：可知没有生产商愿意将他的想法生产出来，所以他就自己做了。考查词组by oneself“独自”，填myself
小题5:我想用“自动商店”这个名字更合适。Far后面接形容词的比较级：more appropriate
小题6:近几年，来自超市连锁店的压力已经迫使乡村商店关门，实际上recent years，和现在完成时连用，因为主语是pressure所以谓语是单数：has forced
小题7:估计有400家乡村商店关闭了，强烈要求政府提供经济支持给这些濒临***的商店或是建立新的社区商店。这里用现在分词做状语：urging
小题8:Fox先生希望这个新的发明给没有商店的村子提供一个解决的方法。使用词组offer sth to sb.所以填to |

Let"s say you"ve decided you want to eat more healthfully. However, you don"t have time to carefully plan menus for meals or read food __小题1:__ at the supermarket.
