分析 本文主要介绍音乐片Miss Saigon《西贡小姐》创作背景及剧情简介.在《西贡小姐》中,女主角西"金"(Kim)是一名年轻的越南女,男主角则是美军士兵克里斯(Chris),两人相爱后,克里斯却因撤军回国,在接下来三年的时间里金生下了她和克里斯的孩子,并希望有朝一日克里斯能来接她去美国.但是克里斯在美国已经娶妻,他的生活里已经没有金的位置了,最终金选择了自杀.
解答 42.produced 考查过去分词.musical与produce之间是动宾关系,用过去分词短语produced by the creators of Les Miserables in 1989作后置定语.
43.is set 考查动词时态.be set in 意为"以…为背景",因表示的是一般事实,be动词用is.
44.an 考查冠词.soldier是可数名词,单数形式前加不定冠词a表示泛指,因American读音以发元音开头,用不定冠词an.
45.So 考查固定句型.so…that…意为"如此/这么…以致于…",句型中的so是副词,常常用来修饰形容词或副词,常用句型为:主语+谓语+so+adj./adv.+that从句.且so放在句首时,句子要部分倒装.
46.desperately 考查副词.try是动词,要用副词修饰.
47.behind 考查固定搭配.leave behind意为"留下",是固定搭配.
48.has given 考查动词时态.根据时间状语A few years later,要用现在完成时态,且主语she是单数,谓语动词也应用单数形式.
49.to find 考查动词不定式.此处动词不定式表示目的,作目的状语.
50.in 考查介词.in despair意为"绝望地",是固定搭配.
51.will take 考查动词时态.根据上下文语境,take是将要发生的动作,用一般将来时态.
