Answer 1

【答案】

【1】the

【2】Because/Since/As

【3】what

【4】but

【5】at

【6】to

【7】of

【8】that

【解析】该短文讲述了“我”由于不会说英语去纽约的时候带来的各种不便，在经历了这些之后，“我”下定决心学好英语。

【1】the 考察定冠词的用法。The定冠词表示特定的人或事物，这里使用定冠词，是表示第二天来看“我”所以用定冠词。

【2】Because/Since/As 考察原因状语从句。结合句意因为我不会说英语，于是我不能告诉服务员我想要什么。所以这是个原因状语从句，Because/Since/As可以用于引导原因状语从句。

【3】what考察宾语从句引导词。What在宾语从句中做wanted的宾语。该句意思为：我不能告诉服务员我想要什么。

【4】but 考察连词。结合该空前后句意：我非常郁闷，开始做一些手势但是服务员就是无法理解我。故填but。

【5】at考察介词。这个句子是一个that省略了的定语从句，结合句意我点了和旁边坐的男子吃的一样的东西。At the next table在旁边的桌子。

【6】to考察固定句型，从前面的started以及后面的walk用原型可以知道这里是固定句型start to do sth。故填to

【7】of 考察介词。of表示关于;属于…的;由…制成。 huge crowds of people表示一大群人。故填of

【8】that 考察宾语从句引导词。that在名词性从句里都是不充当成分的,没有实际意义，仅仅只是连接作用。该句意思为：我决定了要学习说英语。
