19.I remember a day before I turned 30when a barber pulled a gray hair from my head and handed it to me."Here you go,"she said."This is only the beginning."My mother's hair was (61)totally(total) gray by 32,but I hoped to hold on to my light brown hair until at least 50.It didn't seem possible that I could be losing my"freshness"at just 29.But as (62)the number of gray hairs increased quickly through the years,I made my peace with (63)going(go) gray.
Then,a few years ago,on my 45th birthday,a middle-aged woman (64)stopped(stop) me as I was walking down the sidewalk and asked what brand of hair coloring I used.I said that I used nothing.She laughed and said she (65)had thought(think) I could direct her to a product that would make her hair look like (66)mine(me).
I felt(67)pleased(please) for three days.I realized that sometimes what we are bored (68)with might be things that others want to have.So why not accept and enjoy what we have?I'm now (69)proud(pride) of every strand (缕)I've earned over the years and hope to earn more (70)beforeit's too late.After all,it isn't really gray.It is a kind of color that others admire.
分析 本文主要讲述作者在30岁前头发开始变白,但作者希望维持浅棕色的头发到50岁.几年前,在作者45岁生日时,一个中年妇女问她使用了什么牌子的染发剂,希望能像作者的头发一样.这让作者很高兴,有时我们厌烦的东西可能是别人想要的东西.我们为什么不接受和欣赏我们有的东西呢?
解答 61.totally 考查副词.gray是形容词,要用副词修饰.
62.the 考查冠词.the number of…意为"…的数目",是固定搭配,a number of意为"许多的".
63.going 考查动名词.with是介词,后接动词时用动名词形式.
64.stopped 考查动词时态.此处讲述的是过去的事情,要用一般过去时态.
65.had thought 考查动词时态.think发生在过去动作said之前,即"过去的过去",用过去完成时态.
66.mine 考查代词.此处mine相当于my hair.
67.pleased 考查过去分词.过去分词作表语,多半用来表示人物所处的心理状态或情感变化,其主语多半是人.
68.with 考查介词.be bored with意为"厌烦做…",是固定搭配.
69.proud 考查形容词.be proud of意为"以…自豪",是固定搭配.
70.before 考查连词.根据句意:趁还不太晚.用连词before,意为"趁…".
