16.Christmas was coming.Mr.Smith had no money (61)to buy (buy) any presents for his children.His wife was ill and he had spent a lot of money (62)on her medicine.The harvest was bad and everyone in his family was going to be hungry the next spring.He was quite (63)worried(worry) about it."We have only a cock,"said Mrs.Smith one day."You'd better take it to the town.Sell it there and buy some cakes and (64)candies(candy) for our children."
"That is a good idea!"the man said and caught the cock the next morning and put (65)it into a box.It was difficult to walk on the road,because it (66)was covered(cover) with thick snow.Two hours later,he was very tired and wanted to have a rest.He put the box on the ground and sat down.
"The air in the box must be old,"the man said to (67)himself(he)."I'd better let the cock walk outside for a while,(68)or/otherwise it'll die."
So he put the cock on the ground.Then,when he wanted to start off again,Mr.Smith tried to get the cock,but he found he couldn't catch it (69)any longer.
"How foolish you are!"Mr.Smith shouted (70)angrily(anger) at the cock."You can herald(预示) the break of day at night but you can't find the way to the town in the daytime!"
分析 圣诞节就要来了,史密斯先生因妻子生病花费大笔医药费,庄稼收成也差,没钱为孩子们准备礼物.史密斯夫人要他把一只公鸡最好去镇上卖掉为孩子们买点糕点糖果.第二天,路上积雪厚,很难走.两个小时过去了,他很累,决定稍作休息,就把箱子往地上一放坐了下来.他认为装公鸡的箱子肯定密不透风,把公鸡放了出来,但当他再次上路时,却再也找不到公鸡了.
解答 61.to buy 62.on 63.worried 64.candies 65.it
66.was covered 67.himself 68.or/otherwise 69.any 70.angrily
61.to buy 考查不定式.have sth to do 意为"有…事要做",即:史密斯先生没钱为孩子们买礼物.
62.on 考查介词.spend time/money on sth.意为"在…上花费时间(金钱)".
63.worried 考查形容词.be动词后接形容词作表语.be worried about意为"对…担心,忧虑".
64.candies 考查名词复数.candy意为"糖果",是可数名词,要用复数形式.
65.it 考查代词.it代指前文提到的cock.
66.was covered 考查动词语态.it与cover之间是动宾关系,要用一般过去时的被动语态.
67.himself 考查代词.此处表示"自言自语地说",即say to himself.
68.or/otherwise 考查连词.根据句意,此处意为"(用于警告和忠告)否则".
69.any 考查固定搭配.not…any longer意为"不再".
70.angrily 考查副词. shout是动词,要用副词修饰,形容词angry的副词是angrily.
