题目内容
12.I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise.At the end I said,"Son,remember:Be slow and steady(61)and you will win the race.Don't you think there's something to learn (62)from the tortoise?"Sonny opened his eyes wide,"Do you mean next time when I'm entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy,Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?"I was (63)shocked(shock),"But the tortoise didn't wish that the hare would fall asleep!"
"He must have wished that,"Sonny said."Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare?He knew very (64)well (good) the hare ran a hundred times faster than he (65)himself (him) did."
"He didn't have such (66)a wish,"I insisted."He won the race by perseverance and by pushing on(67)steadily (steady)."
Sonny(68)thought (think) for a while."That's a lie,"he said."He won it because he was lucky.If the hare hadn't happened(69)to fall (fall) asleep,the tortoise would never have won the race.He could be as steady as you like,but he'd never have won the race.That's for sure."
I gave up.Today's children are not like(70)what we used to be.
分析 本文作者主要介绍了自己的儿子在听完《龟兔赛跑的故事》后,所表现出来的与故事本身所表达的寓意截然不同的想法,从而使作者意识到现在孩子的思想意识已经完全不像他们小时候那样了.
解答 答案:
61.and 考查固定句型结构 祈使句+and+含有一般将来时的简单句,相当于if引导的条件状语从句;本句的意思是:慢而稳,你将会赢得比赛;故用and.
62.from 考查固定短语 learn from意为:向…学习,这里指的是:向乌龟学习;故用from.
63.shocked 考查过去分词转化来的形容词 此处在句中作表语,用来说明主语I(指人)的情况,故用过去分词shocked.
64.well 考查副词 此处用来修饰动词 knew;故用副词well.
65.himself 考查反身代词 此处在句中作同位语,强调的是:他自己;故用himself.
66.a 考查不定冠词 此处用在单数名词 wish之前,表示泛指:一种愿望;故用a.
67.steadily 考查副词 此处用来修饰动名词短语 pushing on;故用副词steadily.
68.thought 考查时态 根据上文使用了一般过去时可知,本文讲述的是作者曾经给儿子Sonny讲完《龟兔赛跑的故事》后,Sonny 当时的反应;故用thought.
69.to fall 考查固定短语 happen to do sth.意为:碰巧,恰巧;此处指的是:如果不是兔子碰巧睡着了,乌龟将永远不会赢得比赛;故用to fall.
70.what 考查连接代词 此处用在介词like之后,引导宾语从句;由于该从句中缺少宾语,意为:…的(样子),故用what.
