题目内容
【题目】When we plant a rose seed in the earth,we notice it is small,but we do not criticize it as "rootlees and stemless".We treat it as a seed, 【1】 (give)it the water and nourishment required 【2】 a seed.
When it first 【3】 (shoot up)out of the earth,we don't condemn(指责)it as 【4】 (mature) and underdeveloped, 【5】 do we criticize the buds for not being open when they appear.We stand in wonder at the process 【6】 (take) place,and give the plant the care it needs at each stage of its development.
The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies.Within it,at all times,it contains its whole potential.It seems to be 【7】 (constant) in the process of change:Yet at each state,at each moment,it is perfectly all right as 【8】 it is.
A flower is not 【9】 (good)when it blooms than when it is merely a bud;at each stage it is【10】same thing---a flower in the process of expressing its potential.
【答案】
【1】giving
【2】of
【3】shoots
【4】immature
【5】nor
【6】taking
【7】constantly
【8】as
【9】better
【10】the
【解析】这是一篇名为《成长》的心灵鸡汤。玫瑰,从一粒种子开始到凋零死亡,始终是玫瑰,在它生命的每一阶段,每时每刻,体内都蕴藏着巨大的潜能,都是最真实,最完美的。生命是神圣而崇高的,值得我们敬畏,哪怕是一粒种子,一棵小草,一只蚂蚁。
【1】giving
句意:我们把它当做一粒种子来对待,施予它所需的水分和养料。考查非谓语作状语。根据句子的结构和设空可知动词give与前面的句子逻辑上是主动关系。故用现在分词作状语。
【2】of。
考查介词。施予它(种子)所需的水分和养料。根据句子的结构看,是所属关系。of .……的。
【3】 shoots
考查时态。当它刚刚破土而出时,我们不因它幼稚、发育不良而诋毁它。it是第三人称单数。谓语动词用一般现在时shoots。
【4】immature
考查形容词作状语。我们不因它幼稚、发育不良而诋毁它。本句是个省略句。可以还原为状语从句as( it is) immature and underdeveloped。状语从句 省略了it is 后,变成非谓语形式作状语。 immature 不成熟的。
【5】nor
考查特殊句式倒装。__ do we criticize the buds从设空来看是一个倒装句。句意:我们也不因它们不绽放而责备它。本空有“也不是……的”。nor放在句首句子要部分倒装, 符合此空。
【6】 Taking
考查非谓语。 We stand in wonder at the process taking place=We stand in wonder at the process which takes place。 the process与 take place为逻辑上的主动关系,应用现在分词作定语。
【7】constantly
考查副词。它似乎总在不断地变化.It seems to be _____ (constant) in the process of change根据题意可知设空处应填副词修饰变化的过程。
【8】as
考查 固定用法。但是在任何阶段,任何时刻,都是最真实、最完美的。as it is位于句末,意思是“照现在这个样子”、“照原来这个样子”、“实际上”, 此时it在句中起指代作用,指前面提到的某具体事物。例如Be that as it may, I'll leave it as it is. 无论如何我们也只能听其自然。(as it is 中 it 指前面的 it)
【9】better
A flower is not _____ (good)when it blooms than when it is merely a bud。根据句意,在本句后有一个than。表示要用比较级的。所以此空应为good的比较级better。
【10】the
考查限定词。一朵花,在每一阶段都是相同的,无论是尽情绽放的花朵还是含苞欲放的花骨朵,都是这朵花--一朵时刻展现自己潜能的花。特指前面的同样的那朵花。特指冠词the.
