While there are 8. (amaze) stories of instant transformation(改变),for most of us the 9. (change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work,like 10. (clean) up a polluted river.Just be patient.
语篇导读:本文通过清理凯霍加河河道污染的例子说明了这样一个道理:只要我们坚持不懈,就可以做成那些看似不可能的事情。
答案及剖析:
1.was 考查时态。前句有时间状语In 1969,因此此处描述的是过去的情况。应用一般过去时,故填was。
2.actually 考查副词。应用副词修饰动词,故填actually。
3.the 考查冠词。后面有形容词的最高级,因此该空填定冠词the。
4.or 考查连词。本句为否定句,故用or连接两个并列成分。
5.to reduce 考查非谓语动词。本句是“It takes+时间+to do sth.”句型,因此本空填不定式to reduce。
6.cleaner 考查形容词的比较级。空后的than ever暗示空处应填形容词的比较级cleaner。
7.that/which 考查定语从句。本句含有定语从句,先行词为a habit,指物,在从句中作主语,应填关系代词that/which。
8.amazing 考查形容词。本空在名词之前,且修饰物,故应用形容词amazing作定语。
9.changes 考查名词的数。本句为主系表结构,空格后的are gradual暗示本空填名词复数changes。
10.cleaning 考查非谓语动词。like是介词,此处要用v.-ing形式。
