【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填人1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式

When you don't have a greenhouse or enough room on the balcony for a few pots, you can still grow1(you) a few tasty home-grown tomatoes in hanging baskets ans window boxes if you stick to short varieties. I’ve even heard of these being grown by canal-boat2(owner) on their cabin(船舱)roof, since they’re short enough to fit under the bridges.

You might have trouble3(find) suitable plants later but there’s still time to raise your own form seed if you start straight away. Look for small “tumbling”(下垂的)varieties such 4Totem and Gartenperle. If you live in a5(nature) cold area, it’s worth looking out for a unique variety called Sub-Arctic Plenty, which has6similar size and habit but performs better than most in cooler climates.

All of these will make short plants ideal for pots; they can7(place) anywhere with limited space, as long as it’s sheltered and8 (sun). What’s more, tumbling tomatoes are very easy9(grow)because they don’t need to have any side shoots removed and10do they need more than a few short sticks for support. Simply water, feed and pick.

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文,介绍了为什么西红柿是盆栽的理想选择。

1考查反身代词。句意:如果你没有温室或者阳台上没有足够的空间放几个花盆,但如果你要种个头较小的品种,你仍然可以在吊篮和窗台花箱里种植一些美味的自家产的西红柿。根据句意可知此处表示“你自己”,故填yourself

2考查名词的数。句意:我甚至听说过运河船主在船舱顶上种植这些植物,因为它们个头足够小,当船只在桥下穿行时,它们不会被折断。空后的their表明此处用可数名词复数,故填owners

3考查非谓语动词。句意:你可能很难找到合适的植物,但如果你马上开始,仍然有足够的时间来培育你自己的种子。have trouble (in) doing表示“做某事有困难”,故填finding

4考查固定短语。句意:找一些小的、下垂的品种,如图腾花和珍珠花。根据句意可知此处表示“例如”,such as是固定短语,表示“例如”,故填as

5考查副词。句意:如果你生活在一个自然条件极其寒冷的地区,那就值得去寻找一种名为“亚北极丰度”的独特品种,它的大小和习性与其他品种相似,但在较冷的气候条件下比大多数品种长得更好。修饰形容词cold用副词,故填naturally

6考查冠词。句意同上,此处的size and habit视为一个整体,为可数名词,再结合句意可知此处需要用不定冠词表泛指,similar的发音以辅音音素开头,故填a

7考查语态。句意:所有这些都将使个头较小的植物成为盆栽的理想选择;它们可以被放置在任何空间有限的地方,只要它得到很好地照顾并且能获得充足的阳光。theyplace之间是被动关系,应该用被动语态,情态动词can后用动词原形,故填be placed

8考查形容词。句意同上,分析句子结构并结合句意可知此处缺少形容词作表语,故填sunny

9考查不定式。句意:更重要的是,下垂的西红柿很容易种植,因为它们不需要修剪侧枝,也不需要几根短枝来支撑。分析句子结构可知,本句中it作形式主语,用不定式作真正的主语,故填to grow

10考查部分倒装。句意同上,根据前面的“don’t need to”可知此处表示“也不需要”,neither/nor+助动词+主语是一种倒装结构,表示前面提到的否定情况也适用于后者,翻译成“也不”,故填neither/nor
