Answer 1

【答案】

【小题1】of

【小题2】It

【小题3】success

【小题4】stepped

【小题5】finding

【小题6】What

【小题7】Harder

【小题8】Probably

【小题9】Who

【小题10】to go

【解析】

【小题1】of考查短语。Regardless of意为“不管，不顾”，符合语境，不管天气条件怎么样他都会工作。故填of。

【小题2】It考查固定句型。It take sb.+时间+to do意为“做某事花费某人多少时间”，是固定句型，故填It。

【小题3】success考查名词。a sense of意为“一种”，后面接名词，故填seccess。

【小题4】stepped 考查时态。根据后面，complained，可知这里讲述的是过去的事情，应该用一般过去时，故填stepped。

【小题5】finding考查固定结构。Suggest doing意为“建议做某事”，故填finding。

【小题6】what考查宾语从句。从句中缺少宾语，先行词是know，所以这里应用what引导的宾语从句，故填what。

【小题7】harder考查比较级。根据后面，the better，可知前面也应该用比较级，表示越……越……，故填harder。

【小题8】probably考查副词。句中成分没有残缺probably用来修饰动词becom，起到强调作用，故填probably。

【小题9】who考查主语从句。先行词是Pound，表示人，引导词在从句中作主语，所以这里是who引导的主语从句，故填who。

【小题10】to go考查固定结构。Be+adj.+to do，是固定结构，故填to go。
