题目内容
16.The Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar.For thousands of years,the festival(234)has been marked (mark) by eating zong zi and racing dragon boats in honour of Qu Yuan,who is said to have committed suicide(自杀) by drowning himself.Qu was a minister of the State of Chu (235)situated (situate) in the present-day Hunan and Hubei provinces,during the Warring States Period(战国时期).He was upright,loyal and highly respected.(236)However,he was dismissed from office.(237)Realizing (realize) that the country was in the hands of evil officials,Qu leapt into River Miluo on the fifth day of the fifth month.Nearby fishermen rushed over to save him but were (238)unable (able) to recover his body.
The people of Chu (239)who mourned Qu's death threw rice into the river to feed his ghost(240)every year on the day of his death.But one year,the spirit of Qu appeared and told the mourners that a huge reptile(爬行动物)in the river had stolen the rice.The spirit then advised (241)them to wrap the rice and bind it (242)before throwing it into the river.
During the Duanwu Festival,zong zi is eaten to symbolize(象征,表示) the rice offerings to Qu.And the dragon-boat races symbolize(243)the many attempts to rescue and recover Qu's body.
分析 本文讲述了端午节(The Dragon Boat Festival)的来源.
解答 234.has been marked 235.situated 236.However 237.Realizing 238.unable 239.who 240.every 241.them 242.before 243.the
解析:
234.答案has been marked.考查动词的时态和语态.由时间状语for thousands of years可知,句子谓语动词应用现在完成进行时,表示端午节一直以来都以吃粽子和赛龙珠的方式进行庆祝,而且将来也会如此,故填has been marked.
235.答案situated.考查过去分词.表示某地方位于何地时,用be situated in/on,句中"situated…"相当于定语从句,"which was situated…".
236.答案However.考查副词.前后两句是转折关系,而空格前后都有标点,故应填副词However.
237.答案Realizing.考查动词v-ing.因逻辑主语Qu与realize是主动关系,故应填Realizing.
238.答案unable.考查形容词.由but可知,渔民未能救活他,故用able相反意思的unable.
239.答案who.考查定语从句.引导定语从句并在从句中作主语,先行词是The people of Chu,故应填who.
240.答案every.考查形容词.根据常识,是指"每一"年.
241.答案them.考查代词.代替the mourners,在句中作宾语,故应填them.
242.答案before.考查介词.因"将它裹好、绑好"应是在"将粽子扔进河里"之前,才不会给河里的一种爬行动物偷吃,故应填介词before.
243.答案the.考查冠词.因many/little/few 等词在后面有定语从句或不定式等成分修饰时,其前面用the表特指,故该处填the.
