【解析】
【1】考查动词时态。句意:街头音乐能振奋匆匆赶去上班的乘客的精神。分析句子可知,从句使用一般过去时,故主句也是一般过去时态,lifte the spirits of意为“振奋……的精神”,符合句意,故填lifted the spirits of。
【2】考查现在分词做状语。句意:利用想象力,作者在他最新小说的结构上增添了情节。分析句子可知,主语the writer,谓语added;draw upon(利用,使用,采用)不能做谓语,与逻辑主语the writer是主动关系,所以用doing做状语,且谓语句首。故填Drawing upon。
【3】考查固定短语。句意:他们的儿子回家了,安然无恙,让他们松了了口气。to one’s relief意为“让人松了口气|使某人欣慰|使人安心”,根据句意,应该是他们松了口气,应该用their,故填to their relief。
【4】考查固定搭配。句意:我想不起我们上次见面的确切日期了,但大概是在五月底。bring…to mind意为“想起……”,符合句意,前面是can’t,后接动词原形,故填bring to mind。
【5】考查固定搭配。句意:当我们在湖中心时,突然吹来一阵强风。all of a sudden意为“突然”,符合句意,故填all of a sudden。
【6】考查固定搭配。句意:为纪念为我们国家献出生命的战士举办了这次庆典。in honor of意为“为了纪念或者为了欢迎某人/事”,符合句意,故填in honor of。
【7】考查动词时态。句意:当一个故事在我脑海中呈现出来,我瞥见了我的想法,就迅速将它草拟成一个提纲。分析句子可知,要用一般过去时态,catch a glimpse of意为“瞥见、窥见”,符合句意。故填caught a glimpse of。
