题目内容
5.One day,Nick invited his friends to supper.He was cooking some delicious food in the kitchen.Suddenly,he found that he(61)had run(run) out of salt.So Nick called to his son,"Go to the village and buy some salt,but pay a fair price for it; neither too much(62)nor too little."His son looked surprised."I can understand why I shouldn't pay too much,Father,but if I can pay less,(63)why not save a bit of money?"
"That would be a very(64)reasonable( reason ) thing to do in a big city,but it could destroy a small village like(65)ours"Nick said.
Nick's guests,(66)whohad heard their conversation,asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could.Nick replied,"The only reason a man would sell salt(67)at a lower price would be because he was desperate for money.And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect for the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it."
"But such a small thing couldn't(68)possibly( possible ) destroy a village."
"In the beginning,there was only(69)avery small amount of unfairness in the world,but everyone added a little,always (70)thinking( think ) that it was only small and not very important,and look where we have ended up today."
分析 本文通过讲述尼克打电话叫他儿子去买些盐,并交代他儿子要以合理公平的价格买,不能破坏市场平衡的故事,告诉我们要懂得尊重他人和生活中的公平.
解答 61.had run 考查动词时态.run发生在find之间,find用一般过去时态,run则要用过去完成时态.
62.nor 考查连词搭配.neither …nor…意为"既不…也不…",是固定搭配.
63.why 考查连词.why not do sth.意为"为什么不做某事",是固定搭配.
64.reasonable 考查形容词.其结构形式为 a/an+形容词+单数名词.
65.ours 考查代词.like是介词,后用名词性物主代词作宾语.
66.who 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词 是Nick's guests,who在从句中做主语.
67.at 考查介词.at a price意为"以什么的价格",是固定搭配.
68.possibly 考查副词.修饰动词destroy用副词,形容词possible的副词是possibly.
69.a 考查冠词.a small amount of意为"少量的",是固定搭配.
70.thinking 考查现在分词.everyone与think是主动关系,用现在分词短语作added的伴随状语.
