11.Make your home a safer placeYou probably think that your home is the one place where you are safe.That's what I thought until last week.Now I knew our flat is full of accidents waiting (61)to happen (happen).Next month we'll look (62)after my niece and nephew while their parents go away for (63)a short break.We asked them to come and make sure that everything was (64)totally (total) OK.All of us got a few (65)surprises (surprise).
We started in the spare bedroom,in (66)which the children will sleep.Everybody knows you shouldn't put children's beds under a window in case a child(67)tries/should try (try) to climb out.Next was the bathroom.We keep our medicines on a shelf above the washbasin.Never leave medicines somewhere children can find(68)them (they).They might think they are sweets.Finally,the kitchen.This is the most (69)dangerous (danger) room in the house.Knives should be (70)kept (keep)in drawers children can't reach,and all cleaning liquids in high cupboards.So we have three weeks to make our house safe.It's not difficult…once you know how.
分析 作者认为我们的家里充满了事故隐患,所以本文主要是针对有小孩子的家庭,介绍了如何才能让家变成一个更安全的地方;首先,在卧室里,为了防止孩子往窗外爬,不能将孩子的床安放在窗户底下;其次,在盥洗室内,应将药品放到脸盆架上;不要放在孩子们能找到的地方;最后是厨房,因为厨房是家里最危险的地方;要把刀放在孩子们够不着的抽屉里;将所有的清洗液体放到高的橱柜里;作者还认为一旦了解了这些情况,做到以上几点并不难.
解答 61.to happen 考查动词不定式 本句的意思:现在我知道我们的公寓充满了事故隐患(等待发生的事故);此处表示将要发生的事故,故用动词不定式to happen
62.after 考查固定短语 固定短语look after意为:照料,照看;这里指:下个月,我们将照顾我的侄女和侄子;故填after
63.a 考查固定短语 固定短语a short break意为:短暂的休息;这里的意思是:当他们的父母外出进行短暂的休息时,故填a
64.totally 考查副词 此处用来修饰形容词OK,所以应使用副词形式;意为:完全正常;故填totally
65.surprises 考查名词 此处用在形容词a few (些许)之后,应使用名词形式;根据句意可知,这里指的是一些令人吃惊的事情,surprise是可数名词;故填surprises
66.which 考查关系代词 根据句意以及介词in之前的逗号可知,本句是非限定性的定语从句;先行词bedroom(指物)在从句中作介词in的宾语;故填which
67.tries/should try 考查谓语动词或虚拟语气 本句的意思:每个人都知道你不应该把孩子的床放在窗户底下,以防孩子试图爬出去;根据主句使用了一般现在时可知,本句描述的是通常会发生的情况,故此处也应使用一般现在时;另外,由于此处用在in case引导的从句中,表示对将来的一种假设,还可以使用虚拟语气,即"should+动词原形";故填tries/should try
68.them 考查人称代词 此处用在动词find之后作宾语,所以应使用人称代词的宾格形式;故填them
69.dangerous 考查形容词 此处用来修饰名词room,应使用形容词;与前面的the most 构成它的最高级形式,意为:最危险的房间;故填dangerous
70.kept 考查过去分词 根据句意可知,动词keep与主语Knives 构成的是动宾关系,此处应使用被动语态;由于此处是用在了should be 之后,所以这里应填过去分词,并与should be 一起构成情态动词的被动语态;故填kept;
点评 语法填空主要考查了各种语法知识在短文中的具体运用.做本题时,需要在正确理解短文的前提下,逐句分析句意以及所考查到的语法现象;因此在平时的学习中,应熟练掌握各种语法知识,其中包括词法,句法,各种时态语态以及虚拟语气等.
