阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
One day, Nick invited his friends to supper. He was cooking some delicious food in the kitchen. Suddenly, he 【1】 (find) that he had run out of salt. So Nick called to his son, “Go to the village and buy some salt, 【2】 pay a fair price for it: neither too much nor too little.”
His son looked surprised. “I can understand why I shouldn't pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less, 【3】 not save a bit of money?”
“That would be a very 【4】 (reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy 【5】 small village like ours,” Nick said.
Nick’s guests, 【6】 had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt 【7】 (cheap) if they could. Nick replied, “The only reason why a man would sell salt at a lower price would be that he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect 【8】 the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.”
“But such a small thing couldn't 【9】 (possible) destroy a village.”
“In the beginning, there was only a very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little, always 【10】 (think) that it was only small and not very important, and look where we have ended up today.”

【9】possibly
【10】thinking
【解析】
试题分析:文章通过一个故事,向我们揭示了一个道理:世上的不公平本来没这么明显,正是由于众人的一点点的改变,使得这些不公愈演愈烈。
【1】found 考查动词的过去式,根据上下文的时态不难看出,此处用一般过去时态,故填found。
【2】but 句意:去村子买盐,但是要付一个公平的价格。此处表示转折关系,故填but。
【3】why 考查连词 why not do sth. 为什么不做某事,可以看作是固定搭配使用。
【4】reasonable 考查形容词 其结构形式为 a/an+形容词+单数名词。reasonable合情合理的,根据句意可知填reasonable。
【5】a 句意:但是它能毁掉一个像我们这样的一个小村子。故填a。
【6】who 考查定语从句的连词,先行词是Nick's guests, who在从句中做主语。
【7】cheaper 根据句意可知此处用形容词的比较级,“为什么我们不能买更便宜的盐”。故填cheaper。
【8】for 考查介词 show respect for sth. 对某事表示尊敬
【9】possibly 考查副词,修饰动词destroy ,此题多数学生知道是填副词形式,但会错在没有去e变y ,而是直接加ly.故填possibly。
【10】thinking 考查非谓语动词,动名词表伴随。此题的结构为A, B, and C,其中A,C用and 连接表并列,谓语动词形式须一致,但B多数用现在分词形式表伴随。故填thinking。
【知识拓展】
