解答 61.to sell.考查非谓语动词.做序数词 the first companies 的定语用动词不定式to sell. 表示"网上第一家卖产品的公司."
62.on.考查介词.在January 12,1964前用on.
63.how.考查宾语从句的引导词.根据宾语从句的主语和谓语things worked 可知"他对事物怎样工作的很感兴趣."
64.where.考查定语从句.修饰先行词 Miami用where引导的定语从句,表示"在迈阿密他对电脑产生了兴趣".
65.well.考查副词.修饰动词did用副词well,do well in表示"做得好".
66.an.考查冠词.根据上文Dream Institute可知这是一家教育夏令营,所以用an修饰 educational summer camp.
67.successful.考查派生词.修饰名词vice-president of a company 用形容词successful,表示"一位成功的副总裁."
68.decision.考查派生词.根据 made the 可知本句表示"他做出一个决定,所以用名词 decision.
69.called.考查派生词.做an online bookstore的定语,call Amazon和它自己是被动关系,所以用 called.,表示"他在西雅图开了一家网上书店,被称作亚马逊".
70.was founded.考查谓语动词.it代指"书店",所以和find之间是被动关系,find是谓语动词,用was founded,表示"自从书店被建立,生意一直在快速增长."
点评 考查语法填空.
where引导定语从句:
当主句中的先行词是表示地点意义的名词时,它只能作其所在的定语从句的地状语,放在定语从句的句首.如果定语从句的引导词作该定语从句的主语或宾语时,也要改用关系代词that或which来引导.例如:
This is the room where(=in which)I lived last year.
这就是我去年住过的房间.

I stood there all alone,(54)Cwatching her.It took less than a minute for the two new friends to run off,hand in hand,(55)D joining a game of tag.
I often think of that small(56)C.about what I learned and how(57)B it is for all teachers to speak kid.I know-my (58)A should be on teaching students how to think and how to(59)Dsolutions.We must be ready to learn from our (60)Ba because those"teachable moments"during the school days are for us.the teachers,as well as our kids.
