Directions: Complete the following passage by using ONE word thatbest fits the context.
Deciding what present you should give someone is never easy. Many things must be considered such as 1 the person is interested in and how old he is. We must also consider the reaction 2 the person receiving the gift. One of the worst gift choices I ever made was for my high school English teacher, Ms Chen. Ms Chen has taught me English since Junior 1, and to show my appreciation I decided to get 3 a present. I asked my classmates about her interests 4 I made my final decision.
Then I went to the department store5 I worked part-time and bought her 6 expensive gift box of Sichuan beef. I was certain she would like it 7 I had been told by my classmates that she loved hot food. I left the box with a card on her desk, and I was sure she would like them.8 was only after I heard she became sick that I learned she couldn’t eat MSG ! |
答案
小题1:what
小题1:of
小题1:her
小题1:before
小题1:where
小题1:an
小题1:because
小题1:It |
解析
本文通过自身的经历来论述给人送什么样的礼物并不是一件容易的事。
小题1:what 因such as (=like例如)用来列举同类人或事物中的几个例子，所以这是个宾语从句，宾语从句中介词in缺少宾语，因此，用what引导宾语从句并在从句中作宾语。
小题1:receiving 因为the person与receive是主动关系，所以用现在分词短语作定语。
小题1:worst 在one of…之后，且有定冠词the, 应该用形容词的最高级形式。
小题1:had taught／had been teaching表示从初一开始一直到我给他送礼物时一直是教我英语的，用过去完成时或过去完成进行时。
小题1:appreciation 作为宾语或者说在形容词性物主代词之后，一定是名词形式。
小题1:before 征询同学的意见应该是在做最后决定之前，所以应该是before.注意，before已经明确表示了时间的先后关系，所以在主从句中均可以用一般过去时。
小题1:where 因先行词是地点，并在定语从句中作地点状语，用where引导定语从句。
小题1:an 意为“一盒价格昂贵的牛肉”，表示“一(盒)”用不定冠词，又因expensive是以元音开头，故用an。
小题1:was told／had been told 因I与tell是被动关系，又是过去式，故用was told；也可指在过去动作“买”之前，故是过去的过去，也可用过去完成时的被动语态。
小题1:It 这里It was…that…是强调结构，强调时间状语从句only after I heard she became sick。 |

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词，并请将答案写在答题纸上。
The family sphere (范围) used to be defined by its isolation from the public realm. There was the public male realm (领域) of "rational accomplishment" and cruel competition, and the private female and child-rearing sphere of home, intuition (直觉) and emotion. The private realm was supposed to be isolated from the realities of adult life. For both better and worse, television and other electronic media tend to break down the difference between those two worlds. The membrane around the family sphere is much more permeable (可渗透的). TV takes public events and transforms them into dramas that are played out in the privacy of our living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms.
Parents used to be the channel through which children learned about the outside world. They could decide what to tell their children and when to tell it to them. Since children learn to read in stages, books provide a kind of natural screening process, where adults can decide what to tell and not tell children of different reading abilities. Television destroyed the system that separated adult from child knowledge and separated information into year-by-year slices for children of different ages. Instead, it presents the same information directly to children of all ages, without going through adult filters.
So television presents a real challenge to adults. While a parent can read a newspaper without sharing it with children in the same room, television is accessible to everyone in that space. And unlike books, television doesn’t allow us to flip (翻转) through it and see what’s coming up. We may think we’re giving our children a lesson in science by having them watch the Challenger take off, and then suddenly they learn about death, disaster and adult mistakes.
Books allow adults to discuss privately what to tell or not tell children. This also allows parents to keep adult material secret from children and keep their secret keeping secret. Take that same material and put it on The Today Show and you have 800,000 children hearing the very things the adults are trying to keep from them. "Television takes our kids across the globe before parents give them permission to cross the street."
More importantly, children gradually learn that adults are worried and anxious about being parents. Actually, television has also places families under a lot of stress.
