在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
1.Nothing can be more fascinating than a smile, which can produce hope even in ___________
(desperate).
desperation
解析 句意为:没有什么比微笑更迷人的了,即使在绝望的情况下,微笑也能带来希望。in desperation意为“在绝望中”,为固定搭配。故填名词desperation。
2.Our new offices are still under ____________ (construct).
construction
解析 句意为:我们的新办公室尚在修建中。under construction (=being built)意为“在修建中”。介词under后面需要用名词,注意此短语中不用冠词。
3.One is the water and soil ____________ (preserve) project, which resulted in farmers replacing their crops with trees or grass.
preservation
解析 句意为:一个是水土保持工程,这会使农民用树木或草代替他们的农作物。water and soil 作定语,修饰project,water and soil又修饰设空处,根据句意可知,此处应填名词preservation,表示功能。

4._________ (evident), some of these questions are rather too difficult to answer.
Evidently
解析 句意为:显然,其中一些问题相当难以回答。设空处位于句首,其后是一个完整的句子,此处应是作状语,故填副词Evidently。
5.We believe that if we form a perfectly ________ (polish) personality, flash our intelligence,
and perfect our humour, then no one can hurt us.
polished
解析 句意为:我们相信,如果我们塑造十足完美的个性,让我们的才智闪光,完善我们的幽默感,那么就没有人可以伤害我们了。设空处前为副词,后为名词,故应填形容词polished,意为“完美的,精湛的”。
6.I left immediately the clock _______ (strike) twelve.
struck
解析 句意为:钟一敲响十二点我就走了。immediately引导时间状语从句,主句为一般过去时,从句时态应保持一致,且从句主语clock与strike之间为主动关系,故填struck。

7.—How do you find your first visit to your net friend Jane?
—Oh, wonderful! Her warm welcome left me completely ___ ease.
at
解析 句意为:——你觉得你第一次拜访你的网友简怎么样?——哦,太好了!她热情的欢迎使我非常自在。at ease 意为“舒适,自在”。
8.Whether we need to prepare more food depends ________ the number of people who will be
present.
on/upon
解析 句意为:我们是否需要准备更多的食物要视将要到场的人数而定。depend on/upon 意为“取决于”。
9.He as well as his wife ___________ (invite) to the party last week.
was invited
解析 句意为:他和他的妻子上周被邀请去参加聚会了。 as well as 意为“和”,连接两个并列成分作主语时,谓语动词应与前面的名词或代词的人称和数保持一致。本句中He为第三人称单数,与invite为被动关系,last week为过去的时间,应用一般过去时的被动语态,故填was invited。
