【分析】
这篇短文讲述的是Joe去了一个海边小镇度假,在住店的时候,因为误解了店主的意思而闹出了一个笑话。
48.【答案】 spend 句意:Joe在度假,所以他决定在一个海边小镇上度过这个假期。
根据句意可知,空后的it代指holiday,结合首字母可知,这里表示“度过假期”,考查spend,意为“花费,度过”,是一个动词。句中使用了句型decide to do sth.“决定去做某事”,这里应用动词原形。故答案为spend。
49. 【答案】off 句意:他下了火车,离开了车站。
根据空后and left the station可知,先“下火车”,再“离开车站”,这里考查的是短语get off,意为“下车”。故答案为off。
50. 【答案】hotel 句意:几分钟之后,他进入了一个小旅馆,问主人住一晚上要多少钱。
根据空后asking the owner how much it would cost him for one night.可知Joe是想要住店,故这里考查的是hotel。空前有a修饰,用单数。故答案为hotel。
51.【答案】 sadly 句意:Joe伤心地说:“那超出了我的支付能力。”
根据Joe所说的话 “That's more than I can really pay”可知,15美元一个晚上对于他来说太贵了,他付不起,所以感到伤心,这里考查sadly,是一个副词,修饰谓语动词said。故答案为sadly。
52. 【答案】because 句意:Joe非常开心因为他在家总是自己铺床。
根据两句话之间的关系可知,空后解释Joe感到开心的原因,因此这里考查because,是一个连词,引导原因状语从句。故答案为because。
53. 【答案】yourself
