【解析】
本篇是说明文,介绍在中国茶使用的场合,还有茶文化的历史发展。
【1】
考查非谓语动词。句意:正如你可以看见的,许多中国家庭晚饭后会喝茶或者用茶招呼客人。这里when引导的句子没有主语,所以这里greet是非谓语动词,greet的逻辑主语是Chinese families, 两者之间是主动关系,所以用doing表示主动。故填greeting。
【2】
考查冠词。句意:在中国,茶可以被看作是一种对长辈尊重的标志。这里a sign of表示“……的标志”,表示泛指。故填a。
【3】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在中国传统婚礼,为了表达他们的感谢,新郎和新娘都要跪在他们的父母面前敬茶。这里句子前后用逗号隔开且没有主语,所以这里是非谓语动词,to do表示目的。故填to express。
【4】
考查名词。make a serious apology 表示“做严肃的道歉”,前面有冠词和形容词,此处应该填名词。故填apology。
【5】
考查名词复数。these various tea customs 这些多样的饮茶习俗,前面有形容词various需要加名词的复数形式。故填customs。
【6】
考查物主代词。句意:至于它的历史,茶来源于中国,现在全世界都在消费茶叶。its history表示“它的历史”,后面有名词history,此处应该用形容词性物主代词。故填its。
【7】
考查被动语态。这里tea和introduce之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态,时间发生在2000年前,所以用一般过去时。故填was introduced。
【8】
考查定语从句。根据句式结构判断,后面从句部分修饰the only thing,所以此句是定语从句,先行词被the only修饰时,关系词只能用that不能用which。故填that。
【9】
考查介词。along with表示“连同……一起”,固定搭配,故填with。
【10】
考查非谓语动词。这里host和ceremony之间是被动关系,用过去分词做后置定语,故填hosted。
语法填空中比较常考的点是非谓语动词,比如本文的第一题,通常判断需要2个步骤,第一步是分析有句子有没有主语,如果没有则确定是非谓语动词,第二步判断该动词和句子的逻辑主语之间的主被动关系,主动用doing形式,被动用done形式。这里第一题是Chinese families greet visitors,所以是主动关系,故要变doing形式。
