【导语】本文以拉链的发明与普及历程为切入点,介绍了拉链从诞生初期不被认可,经改良后逐渐风靡全球、广泛应用的发展过程,借此告诉我们:优秀的发明能够改变生活,诸多发明创造源于坚持不懈的探索,人们要敢于创新、尝试新事物、从错误中汲取经验,才能实现进步。
【详解】
1.句意:拉链是惠特科姆•贾德森在1893年发明的。句中主语It和谓语invent是被动关系,拉链是被人发明的;时间状语“in 1893”是一般过去时的标志,故用一般过去时的被动语态。主语是单数,be动词用was,invent的过去分词是invented。
2.句意:起初,它不被很多人接受,因为人们认为它不够方便。主语it和accept是被动关系,全文讲述过去的情况,且结合句意表否定,故用一般过去时的被动语态否定形式,be动词用was,与not缩写为wasn’t,accept的过去分词是accepted。
3.句意:然而,经过一些改进后,拉链变得越来越受欢迎。主语the zipper和become是主动关系,无被动含义;动作发生在过去,是过去发生的变化,故填become的过去式became。
4.句意:如今,拉链被用于衣服、包包、鞋子和许多其他物品上。主语zippers和use是被动关系,拉链是被人们使用的;时间状语Today表明是现阶段的常态,故用一般现在时的被动语态。be动词用are,use的过去分词是used。
5.句意:据说全世界每天会生产数百万条拉链。主语millions of zippers和produce是被动关系,拉链是被生产的;every day表示经常性、习惯性的动作,为一般现在时标志,故用一般现在时的被动语态。be动词用are,produce的过去分词是produced。
6.句意:拉链的故事告诉我们,一项好的发明可能会改变我们的生活方式。情态动词may后必须跟动词原形,无语态变化,直接填change。
7.句意:此外,我们应该记住,许多发明是由永不放弃的人创造的。主语many inventions和create是被动关系,发明是被人创造的;根据“who never gave up”可知,动作发生在过去,所以此处为一般过去时的被动语态,be动词用were,create的过去分词是 created。
8.句意:你的想法总有一天可能会变成真实的产品。主语Your idea和turn into是被动关系,想法是被转化为产品的;情态动词may后接动词原形,故用情态动词的被动语态be done形式。
9.句意:新事物应该被尝试,要从错误中学习。主语New things和try是被动关系,新事物是被人们尝试的;情态动词should后接动词原形,故用情态动词的被动语态be done形式。
10.句意:新事物应该被尝试,要从错误中学习。主语mistakes和learn from是被动关系,错误是被人们吸取教训的;情态动词should后接动词原形,故用情态动词的被动语态be done形式。
