题目内容
Jumping out of _______ airplane at ten thousand feet is quite ______ exciting experience.
A.不填; the
B.不填; an
C.an; an
D.the; the
解析:
选项B与最佳答案选项C的不同只在于第一空:对airplane这类可数名词在泛指时是否该加不定冠词(an),有相当一些考生并没有掌握。
|
提示:
题干中设置两空。根据本句语义,第一空为“泛指”任意一架飞机(只要条件符合at ten thousand feet),因此用不定冠词an airplane… 第二空则需要考虑到后面名词experience在本句中的具体所指: Jumping out of…是指的一段“经历”(=something that happens to you or something that you do,especially something important that affects you)。 第二空也应选an。 本题涉及冠词的基本用法以及与之相关的词汇知识运用。

“Well, I 33 sleep well when the wind blows.” answered the little man.
Although the answer was strange, the farmer let the man stay to work. The little man worked 34 around the farm, busy from morning till evening. The farmer felt very pleased with his work.

The little man said slowly, “No sir, I told you----I can 37 well when the wind blows.”
The farmer was very angry, but he had to hurry outside to get ready for the storm. To his 38 , everything was ready outside. 39 could be blown away.
The farmer 40 what the man meant, so he returned to his bed to sleep while the wind was still blowing.

Recently Dr. Cleiman has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor (work) through your work, you may say that you are “hot”. That is true, the time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (顶峰). For some people the peak comes during the forenoon (上午前). For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so.
Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what this energy cycle means and which cycle each member of the family has.
You cannot change your cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. “Habits can help,” Dr. Cleiman believes. If your energy cycle is low in the morning but you have an important job early in the day, rise before your usual hour, and then you will work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a lazy yawn(哈欠) and stretch(伸展). Sit on the edge of bed before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.
