分析 本文主要讲述了由Veldboer 先生于2007年创建的慈善组织---救护车许愿基金会,帮助疾病晚期以及行动不便的病人实现最后的愿望的故事;文中首先讲到了Veldboer 先生带领他的志愿者们帮助在动物园工作了大半生的即将离世的54岁工人Mario完成遗愿的感人场景;Veldboer 先生表示他为能够通过他们的努力来满足这些人的最后心愿而感到高兴;文章最后还提到了救护车许愿基金会去年还帮助了一位疾病晚期的86岁老人回到自己所在的荷兰农场,和小马告别的事情.
解答 答案:
16.cleaning 考查固定短语 固定短语spend…(in) doing sth.意为:花费…做某事;这里指的是:一位即将去世的工人将自己的整个美好年华都用在了在荷兰动物园清理动物的围场上了;故填cleaning
17.deadly 考查形容词及词性转换 此处用在不定冠词a之后,修饰名词disease,应使用动词die的形容词形式;意为:一种致命的疾病;故填deadly
18.was taken 考查时态及语态 本句的意思是:根据他的愿望,他医院的病床被带进了动物园的长颈鹿围栏里;由于此处的动词take与主语his hospital bed 构成的是被动关系;并且根据下文:one of the giraffes approached him and gave him a tender kiss goodbye"有一只长颈鹿过来向他道别,可知"病床被带进了动物园的长颈鹿围栏里"是发生过去的动作,故填was taken
19.To 考查固定短语 固定短语to one's amazement意为:令某人吃惊的是;故填To
20.that 考查固定搭配 固定搭配such…that…意为:如此…以至于…,引导结果状语从句;此处意为:这是一个如此令人心碎的场景,以至于我们禁不住热泪盈眶;故填that
21.but 考查转折连词 此处的weak与in high spirits形成了鲜明的对比,因此这里表达的应是相反的意思,即:虚弱但精神很好;故填but
22.It 考查it作形式主语的用法 此处代替真正的主语that 从句,在句中作的是形式主语,本句意为:我们很高兴能够通过我们的努力满足他的最后心愿;故填It
23.founded 考查过去分词 此处在句中作后置定语,修饰名词 organization;由于动词found与该名词organization构成了动宾关系,所以应使用过去分词,意为:建于2007年的一个组织;故填founded
24.whose/where 考查定语从句中的关系代词或关系副词 本句是定语从句;从句中的 volunteers 与先行词a charity的关系是从属关系,即指:一个慈善机构的志愿者们;所以此处可以填关系代词whose;另外,先行词a charity也可以在从句中做地点状语,意为:在这样一个慈善组织里,志愿者专门帮助身患绝症的病人完成他们的愿望;所以此处也可以填关系副词where;故答案为:whose/where
25.an 考查不定冠词 此处用来修饰单数名词man;表示泛指:一位身患绝症的86岁的人;因此这里应使用不定冠词,由于86即eighty-six的首字母的发音为元音/e/;故填an
