分析 ：文章介绍一个年轻人在沙漠给老师带回一些水，老师喝了以后说很甜，但是老师的另外一个学生喝了以后却说水很难喝，老师解释他喝的不是水，而是学生的心意．
解答 36．the；考查冠词，这里特指前面的water，故用定冠词The．
37．who/that；考查关系代词，这里是定语从句，先行词是an elder，定语从句中缺少主语，故用关系代词who/that在从句中作主语．
38．smiled；考查动词的时态，这里smile和前面的took，后面的thanked是并列成分，时态要保持一致，故用过去式smiled．
39．with；考查介词，分析句意为"年轻人带着快乐的心回家了"，故用介词with．
40．another；考查句意，分析句意为"这个学生走后，老师让另外一个学生品尝这个水"，故用another表示"另外一个"．
41．saying；考查分词作状语，主语he与动词say是主谓关系，故用现在分词做伴随状语．
42．obviously；考查副词，此处用副词作状语修饰整个句子．
43．it；考查代词，分析句意为"你为什么假装喜欢它？"用it代替the water．
44．sweeter；考查形容词的比较级，没有什么比这个更甜的了．用否定词和比较级连用，表示最高级．
45．or；考查连词，此处用or与前面的whether构成短语"whether…or…"，意为"是…还是…"．
