试题分析:
【1】本题主要考查过去完成进行时。本文主要是讲述作者过去的经历,故文章整体时态是过去时,又因空格后 since childhood,可以判断这里是基于过去的时间描述过去持续发生的事情,即 wear 这个动作是发生在 discover 这个动作之前的,过去的过去应用过去完成时,且根据句意“我从童年时就面带的表情...”可知,wear 这个动作是从童年一直持续到现在的,使用过去完成进行时。故正确答案为 had been wearing。
【2】本题主要考查名词。根据空格前的介词 of 可知,空格处应填写一个名词,而根据句子大意可知,这里应填写名词 hardship,表示“艰难困苦”,故正确答案为 hardship。
【3】本题主要考查 -ed 形式的形容词。根据下文 smile 可知,空格处应填写一个修饰 smile 的形容词,force 的形容词变体为 forced 或者 forcing,forced 指“被强迫的”,forcing 指“强迫的,施加压力的”,根据句子大意可知,这里是指“被迫而笑”,故正确答案为 forced。
【4】本题主要考查冠词。空格后是 honest smile,这里 smile 表示“微笑”是可数名词,且表示“一个真诚的微笑”为泛指,故前面要有冠词 a/ an,又因修饰 smile 的是 honest,其读音是以元音音素开头,所以应为冠词 an,故正确答案为 an。
【5】本题主要考查宾语从句。分析句子结构可知,空格后的句子作 see 的宾语,故空格处应填写引导宾语从句的关系词,该宾语从句中,“starting off with a good fifteenminute training of the smile muscles” 为主语,谓语动词是 helped,故句子大意为,让我们瞧瞧,每天早晨练习15分钟微笑如何能在日常生活中帮到我,所以这里要填写有“如何”之意的关系词,故正确答案为 how。
【6】本题主要考查介词。根据本句中 “and then enter” 可知,前半句都在讲我 enter 之前的事情,故应填写 Before 表示 “在...之前”,故正确答案为 Before。
【7】本题主要考查后接不定式的动词。fail to do 表示“未能做某事,没做成某事”,故这里填写 to get,表达“没同样得到微笑”之意,故正确答案为 to get。
【8】本题考查固定搭配。in return 表示“作为回报”,在本句中表示“当我对别人微笑时,作为回报,别人一般也会对我微笑”,故正确答案为 in。
【9】本题主要考查连词。分析句子可知,逗号前后的句子没有从属或者转折关系,而是并列关系,故正确答案为 and。
【10】本题主要考查反身代词。根据句子大意“当我开始这样做时,我发现自己在哪都更受欢迎了”可知,空格处应填写表示“我自己”的人称代词,故正确答案为 myself。
