题目内容
【题目】I needed to get some money so I 【1】(take)a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the January sale. I can’t say that I enjoyed it, 【2】it was an experience I’ll never forget.
When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale, there was already 【3】queue around three sides of the building. This made me very nervous. The moment the security guards【4】(lock) the doors, they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd rushed in. I couldn’t believe my eyes: this wasn’t shopping; it was a battlefield!
After a while, clothes were flying in all directions as people searched【5】the sizes, colours and styles they wanted. Within minutes I had half a dozen people 【6】(push) clothes under my nose, each wanting 【7】(be) the first served. The whole day continued like that. People were spending money like water without thinking 【8】 they needed what they were buying. As 【9】as it was a bargain it was OK.
That night, after a quick dinner I went to bed exhausted, fearing the sound of the alarm 【10】would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.

【解析】试题分析:文章主要讲述作者在一家商场的服装部工作时的所见所闻,描述了圣诞节期间人们的购物热情。
【1】考查动词。根据上文提到的谓语动词needed可知,用一般过去时。故填took。
【2】考查连词。句意:我不能说我喜欢这项工作,但是它是我决不会忘记的一次经历。前后文是转折关系。故填but。
【3】考查冠词。由谓语动词was可推断,queue“队列”用单数。故填a。
【4】考查动词。句意:保卫人员一打开门,当人群冲进来时,他们藏在门后保护自己。根据语境用一般过去时,lock“锁上”其反义词unlock“开锁”。结合语境,故填unlocked。
【5】考查介词。句意:一会儿以后,当人们寻找这他们想要的尺寸、颜色和样式时,衣服飞向四面八方。search for“寻找……”。结合语境,故填for。
【6】考查非谓语动词。句意:数分钟之内,就有六个人从我眼前推着衣服,每个人都想成为第一个被服务的。“___6___(push) clothes”作定语,修饰people,people与push之间是主动关系,用现在分词表示主动关系。故填pushing。
【7】考查动词。“each wanting ___7___(be) the first served”是独立主格结构作状语,want to do sth.“想要做某事”是常用搭配,want后接不定式作宾语。故填to be。
【8】考查宾语从句。句意:人们花钱如流水,不考虑是否他们需要他们买的东西。“__8___ they needed what they were buying”是宾语从句,结合句意,故填whether/if。
【9】考查连词。句意:只要它是合算的交易,就行。as long as“只要”。故填long。
【10】考查定语从句。“___10___would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale”是定语从句,先行词是the alarm,从句中作主语,指物,用关系代词which/that。故填which/that。
