题目内容
19.Walking down the city streets,you look up and see(61)ared telephone box.Behind it,on the road,a big red double-floor bus passes by,(62)carrying(carry) citizens and tourists.This is London.And the red is what the city is famous (63)for.Modern transportation has changed the way we lead our lives.One important means of transport has been the bus.In London,buses take on a bigger role.They are used to visit the city.Red tourist buses have open(64)roofs(roof),which let people take photos,have an amazing view of the city and enjoy(65)themselves(them) as they drive past Big Ben,the Thames and so on.
But how did the bus become unique to London culture?Horse-drawn buses enjoy a history of more than 180 years.They(66)have been used(use) in London since 1829.By the early 20th century,motor-buses were driving around London.Bus companies used different colors at the time.One of the(67)biggest(big) companies chose red because the bright colour made(68)iteasy for the citizens to pick out the bus.In 1933,when London transport was grouped into a single company,they chose the most(69)widely(wide)used color at the time-red.
And so the color red stayed in London.But it was in the mid-1950s(70)thatthe red double-floor was born.Its name is the Routemaster.Built between 1954 and 1968,they still look traditional.Like they have been frozen in time.
分析 短文主要介绍了伦敦的一些标志性的东西.
解答 61.a,考查冠词,box是可数名词,表示泛指,前使用不定冠词a.
62.carrying,考查非谓语,carry与其逻辑主语bus构成主动的关系,因此使用现在分词形式.
63.for,考查介词,be famous for"因…而出名".
64.roofs,考查名词,roof是可数名词,前使用buses,因此使用其复数形式.
65.themselves,考查反身代词,enjoy oneself"玩得高兴".
66.have been used,考查时态,句中有时间状语since 1829,因此谓语使用现在完成时,use与主语构成被动的关系,因此使用have been done的形式.
67.biggest,考查最高级,one of+最高级,表示"最…之一".
68.it,考查代词,make+宾语+宾语补足语,句子的宾语是后面的动词不定式,因此使用it充当形式宾语.
69.widely,考查副词,此处应使用副词修饰后面的动词used.
70.that,考查强调句,it was…that…是强调句的句式.
点评 对于语法填空这类题,一是懂得分析句子结构,二是知道充当各个句子成分的词类或词性,从语法上确定答案,当然,对于某些固定搭配也要牢记,在平时的学习中要多积累这些词汇或短语,对于句子使用的时态语态也要通过语境进行确定.
