【解析】
试题分析:本文介绍了一个勇敢的女仆。
【1】amazed 根据句意可知此处用一般过去时态的被动语态,故填amazed。
【2】valuable 形容词修饰名词,故填valuable。
【3】of 固定词组:think highly of 高度评价,故填of。
【4】paintings 根据句意可知此处用名词的复数形式,故填paintings。
【5】to remove 固定形式:in order to do sth.为了做某事。故填to remove。
【6】an 句意:一个非正式的调查。informal以元音开头,所以前面加“an”表示“一”。
【7】showed 此空前面是一个定语从句,后面是一个宾语从句,所以这里缺少一个谓语动词,根据句意可知用一般过去时态,故填showed。
【8】She 根据前面的a maid一个女仆,可知此空填She,特别注意用大写开头。
【9】who/that 此处考查定语从句,the enemies是先行词,从句缺少引导词,缺少主语,故填who/that。
【10】giving 固定搭配:be worth doing值得做某事,故填giving。
【知识归纳】
1. 固定短语
be worried about 为---担忧;be concerned about对---牵挂;be anxious about 对---焦虑;be curious about 对---好奇;be upset about对---烦恼;be amazed about 对---感到惊讶。
2. be worth doing值得做某事,be well worth doing sth.非常值得做某事。
3.不定冠词a 和an的用法。a用在以元音开头的词前,表示“一”; an用在以辅音开头的词前,表示“一”。比如66小题an 句意:一个非正式的调查。informal以元音开头,所以前面加“an”表示“一”。an important meeting 一个重要的会议;an interesting story 一个有趣的故事;an old man 一位老人;an hour 一小时;an honest boy 一个诚实的男孩;an American lawyer一个美国的律师; a useful tool 一个有用的工具;a European friend一位欧洲的朋友。
