题目内容
6.Roald Dahl,the famous children's book writer,was born to Harold and Sofie Dahl on 13September 1916.He was named (25)after the explorer,Roald Amundsen,their national hero in Norway of that time.In 1920,when Dahl was four,his father died at the age of fifty seven.Instead of (26)moving(move) back to Norway to live with her relatives,his mother decided to remain in Britain.It had been her husband's wish to have their children (27)educated(educate) in the best school in the world.
At the age of eight,Dahl and four of his friends (28)were beaten(beat) by the headmaster after playing a practical joke on a candy store owner.Throughout his childhood,Dahl was sent to several boarding schools.He wrote to his mother almost every day (29)because ofhomesickness.On (30)the day when she died,he realized that she had saved every single one of his letters.
Young Dahl used to dream of inventing a chocolate bar (31)that/which would win the praise of the owner of the chocolate company,Cadbury.This later became the inspiration for the (32)hottest(hot) of all his books-Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.It was the book that finally brought him world fame.
分析 本文讲的是著名的儿童作家罗尔德•达尔的生平、文学之路以及作品.罗尔德•达尔于1916年9月13日出生于韦尔斯卡地夫的兰达夫,罗尔德是因一个当时挪威的民族英雄北极探险家罗尔德•亚孟森而得名的.达尔常常想自己发明一些新的巧克力,希望得到吉百利食品公司的赞扬,而这也触发了他的灵感,写出令他闻名于世的《查理与巧克力工厂》.
解答 25.after 考查固定搭配.name…after…是固定短语,意为"…以…命名",此处考查这一短语的被动形式be named after,故填after.
26.moving 考查非谓语的动名词.Instead of是介词短语,其后动词应用动名词形式,故填moving.
27.educated 考查非谓语的过去分词.根据句意:这是她丈夫的愿望,希望他们的孩子在世界上最好的学校接受教育.可知their children与educate是被动关系,此处考查have sb.done的结构,故填educated作宾语.
28.were beaten 考查一般过去时的被动语态.根据At the age of eight可知是一般过去时,并且主语Dahl and four of his friends 和beat 之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,故填were beaten.
29.because of 考查介词短语.根据句意"他几乎每天都给他妈妈写信"与空格后面的"想家"是因果关系,因homesickness是名词,故填介词短语because of.
30.the 考查冠词.此处特指他妈妈死的那天,故填定冠词the,表特指.
31.that/which 考查定语从句的关系代词.根据空后的would win可知,此处做主语指代先行词 chocolate bar,所以是定语从句,故填that/which.
32.hottest 考查形容词的最高级.根据后面的范围of all his books 以及空前的the可知,此处应用hot的最高级hottest.
点评 语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力,在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意,在读懂短文的基础上,结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析,逐题解答.扎实的语法功底加上准确的理解至关重要.
