【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了世界上最年长的日本人Chitetsu Watanab以及他的长寿秘诀。
【1】
考查介词。句意:一位相信微笑的日本男子成为了世界上最长寿的男性。believe in 译为“信仰,信任”是固定短语。故填in。
【2】
考查非谓语动词。句意:本周三,老人在该市的一家医疗中心获得了“世界最长寿老人”的证书。分析句子,简单句中已有动词received,故提示词需用非谓语动词。同时提示词recognize和逻辑主语之间表示主动伴随关系。故填recognizing。
【3】
考查时态。句意:前纪录保持者是另一位日本人Masazo Nonaka。分析句子,简单中除了提示词外无其余动词,所以此处需用动词的时态。分析句意,此处表示“之前的长寿者”,故此处应用过去时态,且主语为单数。故填was。
【4】
考查定语从句。句意:前世界纪录保持者是另一位日本人Masazo Nonaka,他于上月去世。分析句子,定语从句部分缺主语,引导词应用关系代词。从句的先行词指人。故填who。
【5】
考查形容词。句意:直到大约10年前,渡边还在做盆栽,这是一种日本传统的种植小型雕塑树木的艺术。分析句子,划线后的art词性为名词,故需将提示词变为形容词来修饰名词。故填traditional。
【6】
考查副词。句意:他的作品经常出现在展览上。分析句子,提示词regular的词性为形容词,不能修饰动词。动词修饰的是副词。故填regularly。
【7】
考查名词复数。句意:吉尼斯说,现在他喜欢吃不同的甜点,比如甜奶油冻。分析句子,提示词dessert 译为“甜品”是可数名词,此处被different修饰,需表示复数。故填desserts。
【8】
考查冠词。句意:Watanabe曾就读于一所农业学校,并在那里完成了学业。分析句子,划线后面的school为可数名词,此处表示单数。所以要在其前加冠词a/an,又因为agricultural以元音音素开头。故填an。
【9】
考查名词。句意:他在当地政府工作到退休。分析句子,提示词retire的词性为动词,划线前有形容词性物主代词his,后面须加名词。所以需将retire改为名词,且为不可数名词。故填retirement。
【10】
考查非谓语动词。句意:当被问及长寿的秘诀时,渡边说:不要生气,保持微笑。分析句子,提示词所处的分句无主语,故此处需用非谓语动词作状语。同时ask和逻辑主语之间表示被动关系,所以此处需用过去分词做状语。故填Asked。
