【答案】
【1】a
【2】Luckily
【3】for
【4】was left
【5】when
【6】fell
【7】without
【8】to sell
【9】where
【10】him
【解析】
【1】此处指一座农场。
【2】句意:幸运的是,他有一头每天能产奶的牛。根据句意和句子结构可知,此处需要副词修饰整个句子。
【3】考查固定搭配。exchange... for...用……交换……。
【4】what was left是宾语从句,主语what和leave之间是被动关系,且此处表示过去的情况,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。
【5】was/were doing sth.when...表示“正在做某事这时突然……”。
【6】根据and后面的died可知此处用一般过去时,fall是不及物动词,不能用于被动语态。
【7】前面提到牛死了,所以此处指the Johnsons只能在没有奶牛的情况下谋生。
【8】to sell在此处是动词不定式在此处表示目的。
【9】where people from the towns met regularly是定语从句,修饰market,where在定语从句中作状语。
【10】“it occurred to sb.+that从句”表示“某人突然想到”,此处指Mr. Johnson突然想到,所以填him。
