分析 本文是一篇议论文.上大学真的还划得来吗?这是肯定的!我还记得在大学上英语课,以短篇小说为主题.我们的第一份作业就是在读完两篇短篇小说之后,讨论二者的优劣.两篇都看完了,但我却决定不来那一篇更好,在接下来的几个月,教授指导我应如何考评比较故事的长处短处,譬如说,一篇满含隐喻,而且人物性格的刻画较深刻,另一篇富幽默感,可是较肤浅.我当初一点都看不出来,然而,在几个月后,我的大脑开始开窍,已经能看到写作好坏的区别,文学欣赏的水平也提升至另一新层次.
解答 1.an 考查冠词.class此处为可数名词单数形式,其前须用冠词.再根据此处表泛指,而English是以元音音素开头,故填an.
2.two 考查数词.根据本句中"whichone was better"以及下文"After …both"中both的提示可推断此处表示"两个短篇故事",故填two.
3.reading 考查动名词.after 是介词,括号中所给词是动词,故只能填动名词reading.
4.next 考查形容词.根据该空修饰名词months,应填形容词,再由语境可知,此处表示"在接下来的几个月",故填next.
5.why 考查名词性从句引导词.根据上文"discuss which one was better"可推断,教授是给我们讲解为什么其中一个故事要比另一个故事好,故填why.
6.One 考查不定代词.由语境可知,故事有两个,再根据习惯搭配"one…the other…"可推断填One.
7.while 考查并列连词,while表示前后对比的意思.故填while.
8.but 考查连词.根据"humorous"和"tooshallow"在逻辑上的转折关系可推断,此处填连词but连接两个形容词.
9.I 考查人称代词.根据该空在句中作主语可判断应填名词或代词.结合语境可知该空应指作者本人,故填I.
10.to 考查介词.lead to为固定搭配,意为"导致".故填to.
