分析 本文作者主要讲述了一个令人惊心动魄的惩治企图入室盗窃犯的故事;文中讲到:Clarke夫人通常会在周四去参加妇女俱乐部组织的活动;有一次,在她像往常一样参加完活动回到家后,她发现有些不对劲,好像有人进来过;虽然后门和窗户都锁得好好的,入口处也没有任何动用过武力的迹象,但她还是发现自己的一部相机不见了;接下来的那个周四,她按往常的时间出了门,但是这次她只在附近的公园散了一会儿步,便从后门回到了家里,然后等着看将会发生什么事情;在4点钟时,突然前门的门铃响了,当时Clarke在烧茶;当门铃又响了一次后,她听到她的信箱被推开了;于是,她便提着装有开水的水壶,悄悄地走向了门口;当有人试图伸进手用电线开锁时,Clarke夫人举起水壶,把滚烫的水倒在了那只手上,那人便丢下电线,尖叫着跑开了.
解答 答案:
61.something 考查固定短语"something unusual"意为:不寻常的事情;此处的意思是:当她回到家时,她感觉到了有些不寻常的事情;故用不定代词something
62.no 考查形容词 根据"The back door and the windows were all locked"(后门和窗户都锁着),可推测出这里的意思是:入口处并没有任何动用过武力的迹象;此处用来修饰名词sign;故用no(=not a)
63.found 考查时态 此处与"went from room to room checking"一起在句中作并列谓语,由于文中讲述的在一个星期四发生的事情;故用一般过去时found
64.would happen 考查时态 此处用在what引导的宾语从句中,根据主句"settled"使用了一般过去时,可知此处应使用表示过去的某种时态; 这里的意思是:安顿下来等着看将会发生什么;故用过去将来时would happen
65.when 考查从属连词 本句的意思是:4点时,突然门铃响了;此处表示的是:…时,突然…;故用when
66.being pushed 考查现在分词的被动语态 此处用在感官动词heard之后,表示正在进行的动作;并且动词push与 letter-box 构成了被动关系;故用现在分词的被动语态being pushed
67.wire 考查句意理解以及名词 根据下一句"(68)wire turned and caught around the knob (圆钮)on the door-lock"中的名词"wire"可知,此处指的应是:有人通过信箱穿过来一根电线;故用wire
68.The 考查定冠词 结合上一句可知,此处应表示特指前面提到的那根电线;故用The
69.over/on 考查介词 本句的意思是:Clarke举起水壶,把水倒在了那只手上;此处指的是:在…的上面;故用over/on
70.instantly 考查词形转换及副词 此处在句中修饰动词短语pulled back;故用形容词instant的副词形式instantly
