题目内容
10.In 1899,when Einstein studied at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich,his tutor was Minkevsky,a mathematician.Once Einstein asked Minkevsky,"How can(61)a person,like me,leave his footprints on the road of life and make an outstanding contribution in the(62)scientific(science) field?"It was a complex question.Minkevsky said he had to think about it carefully before (63)giving(give) him an answer.
Three days later,Minkevsky told Einstein the answer was coming!He took Einstein towards a building site and there they set foot on the ground newly covered by cement(水泥),(64)which,of course,led to the workers blaming them.Einstein was (65)confused(confuse),so he asked Minkevsky,"Sir,haven't you led me the wrong way?"
"Can't you see?"Minkevsky said."On the old road surface that has long solidified and in those places which (66)have been passed (pass) through by countless steps so far,you cannot leave your footprints."
Hearing that,Einstein thought long and nodded (67)seriously(serious).From then on,his creativity was inspired.He said,"I never memorize and consider (68)what dictionaries and manuals(手册) contain,for my brain only memorizes those things not(69)included(include) in books."It was in this way(70)that Einstein left his deep footprints in the history of science.
分析 本文主要讲述爱因斯坦在瑞士苏黎世联邦理工大学就读时,他的导师明可夫斯基告诉他,只有尚未凝固的水泥面,才能留下深深的足迹.那些凝固很久的老路面,那些被无数脚步走过的地方,你别想再踩出脚印.
解答 61.a 考查冠词.person是可数名词,其前加不定冠词a表示泛指.
62.scientific 考查形容词.field是名词,其前用形容词修饰作定语,名词science的形容词是scientific.
63.giving 考查动名词.before是介词,后接动词时用动名词形式.
64.which 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词是前面整个句子,且在从句中作主语,用关系代词which.
65.confused 考查过去分词.Einstein与confuse之间是动宾关系,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.
66.have been passed 考查动词时态.根据句中so far,要用现在完成时态,且places与pass之间是动宾关系,用现在完成时的被动语态.
67.seriously 考查副词.nod是动词,用副词修饰,形容词serious的副词是seriously.
68.what 考查连词.contain是及物动词,缺少宾语,用what作其宾语,且引导宾语从句.
69.included 考查过去分词.things与include之间是动宾关系,用过去分词短语included in books作定语修饰things.
70.that 考查强调句.英语强调句型:It is/was+被强调部分(通常是主语、宾语或状语)+that/who(当强调主语且主语指人)+其他部分.
