【答案】

1it 考查代词。

2earlier 考查形容词比较级。

3were told 考查谓语动词根据时态语态以及主谓一致。

4but 考查并列连词。

5why 考查宾语从句的连接词。

6for 考查介词。

7surprisingly 词性转换。

8the 考查冠词。

9where 考查定语从句连接词。

10sunburned/ sunburnt 考查动词变为非谓语动词。

【解析】

1it 考查代词。Said作为谓语动词,后面缺少一个真正的宾语,又要考虑到后面的系动词was,所以空里填写的是一个名词,根据上下文语境这次填写的应该是miami,因为上文出现过所以用it代替。

2earlier 考查形容词比较级。根据前文的had made,可知道动作是发生在以前所以用earlier

3were told 考查谓语动词根据时态语态以及主谓一致。文章的整体时态是发生在过去,所以用过去时态,根据语境可知我们被告知所以用被动语态。

4but 考查并列连词。前后的for the week以及后面的for that week可知前后是对比的关系。翻译成不是…..而是….

5why 考查宾语从句的连接词。前面的我不知道….”所以这里是引导的一个原因,所以连接词是why

6for 考查介词。Charge…for….….而索要费用。

7surprisingly 词性转换。根据后面的helpful可以判断出该空应该填写一个副词来形容形容词。

8the 考查冠词。On the top of sth….的最顶部。

9where 考查定语从句连接词。Beach是一个描述地点的单词,后面作为一个修饰beach的成分故要用where作为连接词。

10sunburned/ sunburnt 考查动词变为非谓语动词。因为该句的主语是we,所以主语和谓语之间的关系是被动。翻译成被灼热,被晒伤。

【题目】Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born on September 24, 1896. He was an American writer of novels and short stories, whose works are the typical writings of the Jazz Age, a term he created himself.

Born into an upper middle-class Irish Catholic family, Fitzgerald was named after his famous second cousin, Francis Scott Key. He was also named after his deceased sister Louise Scott, one of two sisters who died shortly before his birth. He spent 1898–1901 in Syracuse and 1903–1908 in Buffalo, New York, where he attended Nardin Academy. When his father was fired from his company, the family returned to Minnesota, where Fitzgerald attended St. Paul Academy from 1908 to1911.

He is widely regarded as one of the 20th century’s greatest writers. Fitzgerald is considered to be a member of the “Lost Generation” of the 1920s. He finished four novels, This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night and his most famous classic novel, The Great Gatsby. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon was published after his death. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that dealt with themes of youth.

His first literary work, a detective story, was published in a school newspaper when he was 12. When he was 16, he was forced to leave St. Paul Academy for neglecting his studies. He attended Newman School, a prep school in Hackensack, New Jersey, in 1911–1912, and entered Princeton University in 1913 as a member of the Class of 1917. There he became friends with future critics and writers Edmund Wilson (Class of 1916) and John Peale Bishop (Class of 1917), and wrote for the Princeton Triangle Club. He was also a member of the University Cottage Club, which still displays Fitzgerald’s desk and writing materials in its library. A poor student, Fitzgerald left Princeton to enlist (入伍) in the US Army during World War I; however, the war ended shortly after Fitzgerald’s enlistment.

Fitzgerald had been an alcoholic (酒鬼) since his college days, leaving him in poor health by the late 1930s. Fitzgerald suffered a mild attack of tuberculosis in 1919, and died of a heart attack in 1940.
