When Ms.Mary came before the judge,he looked at her (64)seriously(serious) and said that she was too old to drive a car,and that the reason (65)why she had not stopped at red light was most probably that her eyes had become weak with old age,(66)so/and she had simply not seen it.
When the judge had finished what he was saying,Ms.Mary opened the big handbag she was carrying and took out her sewing.Without saying a word,she (67)chose(choose) a needle with a very small eye,and threaded it at the first time.
When she had successfully done this,she took the thread out of the needle again and handed (68)boththe needle and thread to the judge,saying,"Now it is your turn.I suppose you can drive a car well,and you have no doubts about your eyesight."

分析 本文主要讲述Mary女士八十多岁了,仍然像年轻时一样开快车.一次,她在红灯处没有停车,警察跟着她到了法官处.法官说她视力不好,年纪大而不能开车了.她听后,从包里拿出针和线,一次就将线穿过了针.然后,她将针和线递给法官穿,但法官试了多次都不成功.最后,对她的指控只好取消了.
解答 61.that 考查连词.此处含有一个同位语从句,且引导词在从句中不作任何成分,也没有实际意义,用连词that.
62.for 考查介词.根据句意:她从未因为驾驶过失而受到惩罚.for表原因.
63.stopping 考查动名词.without是介词,后接动词时用动名词形式.
64.seriously 考查副词.look at是动词短语,用副词修饰.
65.why 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 the reason在从句中作原因状语,用关系副词why.
66.so/and 考查连词.根据句意:她没有在红灯处停车,原因是年纪大了,视力下降,所以她没有看到红灯.由句意可知,用连词so或and.
67.chose 考查动词时态.整篇文章都描述的是过去的事情,用一般过去时.
68.both 考查固定搭配."both…and…"意为"不仅…而且…,…和…(两者)都",是固定搭配.
69.succeeded 考查动词时态."had+过去分词"构成过去完成时态,用succeeded.
70.was dismissed 考查动词时态和语态.发生在过去的事情,且表示被动,用一般过去时的被动语态.
