【解析】
试题分析:对于没有钱的人来说,圣诞节是个非常尴尬的日子,二十多年前,作者因为财力有限,只能给孩子们买了超市打折的玩具当礼物,但是当孩子们看到玩具时那欢快的表情却让作者心情立马愉悦起来。孩子们的笑声也成了送给作者最好的圣诞礼物。
1.struggling????????????? 。根据结构可知此处是做定语,被修饰名词teacher与struggle之间是主动关系,用现在分词,填struggling。
2.so/and 。分析结构可知前面句子bills are due和后面句子之间是并列或者因果关系,故填so或者and。
3.sold 。 由结构可知sell此处是非谓语动词做后置定语修饰toys,和被修饰词是被动关系,故用过去分词sold。
4.had hidden 。 由结构可知gifts后面句子是定语从句,从句的谓语动词hide的动作发生在brought in 之前,应该用过去完成时,故答案填had hidden。
5.them/the gifts 。从上文内容可知此处指把买的礼物递给孩子们,所以答案是them或者the gifts。
6. eyes/faces。根据情理推断,当孩子们收到礼物时会非常开心,开心会从眼睛或者从脸上表示出来,再根据后面动词搭配可知此处指眼睛或者面容,填eyes或faces。
7.happily。 由结构可知此处是修饰动词hugged,应该用副词形式happily。
8.for????????????? 。 从搭配可知表示时间的长短用介词for+时间段,故此处填for。
9.greatest????????????? 。根据上下文以及后面出现的ever可以判断此处应该用形容词最高级做定语,填greatest。
10.the 。gift是单数名词,而且有定语限制,故前面加定冠词the。
考点:考查学生对语法知识及语境的理解。
