Answer 1

【答案】

【1】laughter

【2】who

【3】was called

【4】a

【5】to overcome

【6】Unlucky

【7】butt

【8】him

【9】more popular

【10】as

【解析】

【1】laughter考查词性，根据此句意:他把笑声带给整个世界，此处应该填laugh的名词laughter笑声，并且笑声是不可数名词。

【2】who；考查句式结构，前面有先行词person，后面是一个独立的句子并且缺少主语，故应该填who这个关系代词引导宾语从句并在从句中充当主语。

【3】was called；考查语态，character和call之间是被动关系，并且全篇用过去时态，故应用过去时态的被动形式。

【4】a；考查不定冠词，这里的failure是抽象名词具体化，a failure指的是一个失败的人或事，这里是指具有社交失败这种性格的人。

【5】to overcome；考查动词形式，此句的动词不定式作optimism and determination的后置定语。

【6】Unlucky；考查词性，前文说到他们来到California寻找金子，后文提到他们什么都没有找到，故应该是不幸的。

【7】but；考查固定搭配，have nothing to do but…没有某事可做除了…

【8】him；考查词性，动词后面应该接宾语。

【9】more popular；考查词性，后面的than提醒我们要用形容词的比较级。

【10】as；考查介词，应该根据语感，此句句意是他被人们作为能够激励人们找到自信的优秀演员爱戴并且牢记。
