【解析】
试题分析:本文通过讲述一个学生和老师的故事,阐明了一个道理:没有什么东西能比充满爱的礼物更重要。
【1】The 这里the特指前一句提及的小溪里的水,故使用the water。
【2】who 本句是定语从句,先行词是an elder,后面句子中缺少主语,故使用who在句中作主语。
【3】presented 本文叙述的是过去发生的事情,基本时态是一般过去时。
【4】warmly 用副词warmly修饰动词smile。
【5】with 介词with表示伴随的状态。
【6】another 本句是指老师让另外一个学生品尝这个水。another另外一个。
【7】saying 本句中的动词say与句子主语he构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词的形式。
【8】it it指代上句提及的the water。
【9】sweeter 这个水里含有很浓厚的爱意,所以没有什么比它更甜。使用比较级的形式。
【10】when 句意:当我们收到孩子们爱的礼物时,我们能最好地理解这一课。此处是when引导的时间状语从句,故填when。
