3.The first selfie stick(自拍杆) was (61)definitely (definite) invented by Hiroshi,(62)a photographer at a camera company.He made it due to being (63)unable (able) to take pictures of themselves during a trip to Europe with his wife.When he asked a boy to take pictures of them,the boy ran off with the camera.Frustrated,he invented something (64)that would allow him to take a picture of himself.Since the iPhone really had not been invented yet,a small camera (65)was attached(attach) to one end of the stick.(66)With a small mirror in its front,users could see(67)how they would look in the photo.He patented(获专利) the"extender stick"in 1983.But the product turned out (68)to be (be) a commercial(69)failure(fail).A research showed the women back then were embarrassed by the idea of taking pictures of themselves.The selfie stick was then reinvented by Wayne Fromm in 2000.Fromm believes he is the inventor of today's selfie sticks.When (70)asked (ask) about Hiroshi's selfie sticks,he said they were"Old-fashioned Art."分析 本文讲述了自拍杆的发明过程.第一个自拍杆确定是由 Hiroshi发明的,Hiroshi是一家照相机公司的摄影师,因为Hiroshi不能自己拍照,所以发明了自拍杆,他在一个照相机粘在一个杆子的头上,他们可以通过镜子看他们看起来怎样.那时的女人觉得拍自己很尴尬,所以他的发明失败了.Wayne Fromm 在 2000年发明了自拍杆,当被问起Hiroshi,Wayne Fromm 说那是过时的东西.
解答 61.definitely.考查副词.修饰动词 invented 用副词,该句表示第一个自拍杆确定是由 Hiroshi发明的.
62.a.考查冠词.表示"一位"应该用不定冠词,Hiroshi是一家照相机公司的摄影师.
63.unable.考查派生词.根据When he asked a boy to take pictures of them,the boy ran off with the camera 可知本句表示Hiroshi不能自己拍照.unable"不能".
64.that.考查关系代词.定语从句 would allow him to take a picture of himself的先行词是something,做从句的主语,所以关系词用that不用which.
65.was attached.考查谓语动词.a small camera 和 attach之间是被动关系,而且发生在过去,所以用过去时态的被动语态.
66.With.考查With 的复合结构.a small mirror in its front是主句的原因状语,所以用With 的复合结构,表示"因为有镜子在前面".
67.how.考查引导词.根据a small mirror in its front和they would look in the photo可知他们可以通过镜子看他们看起来怎样.
68.to be.考查非谓语动词.turn out to be表示"结果是,证明是",该句表示这项发明结果失败了.
69.failure.考查派生词.根据A research showed the women back then were embarrassed by the idea of taking pictures of themselves.可知那时的女人觉得拍自己很尴尬,所以表明他的发明失败了.
70.asked.考查非谓语动词.根据主句he said they were"Old-fashioned Art可知ask和主语之间是被动关系,所以用asked.
点评 考查语法填空.
With 的复合结构由介词with或without+复合结构构成,复合结构作介词with或without的复合宾语,复合宾语中第一部分宾语由名词或代词充当,第二部分补足语由形容词、副词、介词短语或非谓语动词充当.
With a positive attitude we experience pleasant and happy feelings.This brings brightness to the eyes,more energy,and happiness.Our whole being broadcasts good will and happiness.We believe we will have a bright future.Even our health is affected in a beneficial way.
A negative attitude creates unhappy feelings,moods and behavior.When the mind is negative,poisons are released into the blood,which cause more unhappiness and negativity.This is the way to failure,frustration and disappointment.
People can affect our attitude by teaching us poor thinking habits or unintentionally misinforming us or providing us with negative sources of influence,but no one can control our attitude unless we voluntarily give in to that control.No one else"makes us angry."We make ourselves angry when we give in to control of our attitude.What someone else may have done is irrelevant.We choose,not they.They merely put our attitude to a test.If we select a changeable attitude by becoming unfriendly,angry,jealous or suspicious,then we have failed the test.If we condemn ourselves by believing that we are unworthy,then again,we have failed the test.
If we care at all about ourselves,then we must accept full responsibility for our own feelings.We must learn to guard against those feelings that have the possibility to lead our attitude down the wrong path and to strengthen those feelings that can lead us confidently into a better future.
If we want to receive the rewards the future holds in trust for us,then we must exercise the most important choice given to us as members of the human race by maintaining (维持) full control over our attitude.
Having the right attitude is one of the basics that success requires.The combination of a sound personal philosophy and a positive attitude about ourselves and the world around us gives us an inner strength and a firm resolve (决心) that influences all the other areas of our existence.
