答案与解析 proficiency; acquired 第一空作介词with的宾语,且空前是形容词great,故填proficiency。with great proficiency “熟练地;娴熟地”;第二空为非谓语,acquire与proficiency是逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词,填acquired。

高考这样考

答案与解析 whether; spent 第一空引导宾语从句,从句在句意上缺少“是否”,且空后有or,故填whether;第二空作定语,spend与Ten minutes是逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语,填spent。
2.I have the same 24 hours in a day as you do, but I have made specific choices allow me to make the (much) of every day, and still feel happy and relaxed. (2022·浙江高考)
答案与解析 that/which; most 第一空引导定语从句,先行词是choices,从句中缺主语,故用that/which引导定语从句;第二空是固定短语make the most of “充分利用”。
是whether还是if

◆敲黑板 (1)whether ... or ... “无论是……还是……, 不管是……还是……”, 引导让步状语从句。(2)whether ... or ... 也可引导名词性从句作主语或宾语。(3)只用whether不用if的情况:①与or not直接连用;②后接不定式;③作介词宾语;④作discuss的宾语;⑤位于句首;⑥位于系动词后,引导表语从句。
