题目内容
10.Dad was always full of advice,but one of the biggest lessons he taught me one summer was about having a strong work ethic.When my brother and I were growing up,we mowed yards during the summer(25)to earn(earn) pocket change.Dad was our salesman.He told our neighbors about our service and offered a price they could not refuse.My brother and I got 10(64yuan)peryard.Ilaterfoundoutthatourfriendswerecharging20or more for the same amount of work.(26)Every time/Each time we headed out to mow lawns,Dad was there to watch.I used to wonder(27)why he came with us.He stood(28)supervising(supervise) our work in the heat when he could have been inside relaxing with air conditioning and an icy drink.
One day we were cutting our next-door neighbor's yard.She always waited until the grass was knee-high to call us over.To make matters worse,we had (29)an old lawn mower.This particular afternoon,I was finishing up and was tired and sweaty.
I was just about to cut off the lawn mower when I saw Dad pointing to one piece of grass.He yelled:"You missed a piece."
I frowned,hoping he would let it slide and let me go home.He kept pointing.So,tired and (30)disappointed (disappoint),I went back to cut that piece of grass.I mumbled to myself:"That one piece isn't hurting anyone.Why won't he just let it go?"
But when I reached adulthood,I understood his message:When you're running a business,the work you do says a great deal about you.If you want to be seen as an entrepreneur (企业家) with integrity,you(31)must/should deliver a quality product.That single blade of grass meant the job was not done.
(32)Other neighbors took notice of the good work we did and we soon got more business.We started out with one client (客户),but by the end of the summer we had five.
分析 本文是一篇记叙文.这篇讲述的是"我"和哥哥在夏天帮邻居家除草以赚取零花钱,父亲一直站在一旁看我们工作.一次,在"我"筋疲力尽的除完草后,父亲指出"我"还漏了一块草坪没有除完.在父亲的坚持要求下,"我"完成了工作.在这之后,找我们除草的邻居也变多了.父亲交给我对待工作要表现出专业性,以诚信为本.
解答 25.to earn,考查动词不定式,此处应使用动词不定式充当目的状语.
26.Every time/Each time,考查连词,根据语境应使用"每次"every/each time引导时间状语从句.
27.why,考查引导词,位于wonder后的宾语从句,从句成分完整,根据语境应使用why,充当原因状语.
28.supervising,考查非谓语,句子谓语是stood,supervise应使用其非谓语形式,其与stood是同时间进行,因此使用现在分词形式.
29.an,考查冠词,mower是可数名词,old是元音音素开头的单词,因此使用不定冠词an.
30.disappointed,考查形容词,此处用来修饰人,应使用形容词disappointed.
31.must/should,考查情态动词,此处应使用表示"应该"或者"必须"的should或者must.
32.Other,考查代词,根据后面we soon got more business可知是"其他邻居"注意到我们做得好,因此使用other.
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.
