2.Every country shares things(61)incommon:we value family,cherish health,and celebrate large (62)festivals (festival).Yet within the similar things we share,there are parts unique to each country.One British characteristic that is famous(63)is(be) their sense of humor,particularly self-mockery(自嘲).This is a type of humor that criticizes and undervalues oneself.For example,a fat person may joke:"I'm on a new sea food diet.If I see food,I eat it."This is(64)awell-known self-mockery joke.It's difficult to say why self-mockery(65)is tied(tie) to the British people.But every nation's sense of humor comes from its culture and history.It could come from another British characteristic,modesty,(66)meaning (mean) not talking openly about your skills.This seems to be something that is similar with the Chinese people,(67)where modesty plays a big part in daily life.It also acts as a defense of our self-respect by playing down our skills.This can(68)lessen(less) the chances of people criticizing us.Another possible reason is(69)thaton average,the British people don't take themselves too(70)seriously(serious).So mocking themselves is simply a healthy result of this.

分析 文章介绍了不同国家的相同点和不同点.重视家庭,珍惜健康,庆祝节日等是每个国家都有的,但每个国家又都有独特之处.英国人幽默,还喜欢自嘲.和中国人一样,英国人也很谦虚.这些都和历史文化有关.

解答 1.in;考查介词短语.in common具有共同点.
2.festivals;考查名词.句意表达的是抽象的节日,且festival是可数名词,要用复数形式.
3.is;考查主谓一致.句中that is famous是定语从句,主句的主语是One British characteristic,谓语动词要用单数;文章讲述的是一般事实,要用一般现在时态.
4.a;考查冠词.句中是用来限定名词joke,表示泛指,即a joke一个笑话.
5.is tied;考查动词短语.be tied to和…密切相关.
6.meaning;考查分词.句中有逗号分隔,没有连词,要用非谓语动词;mean与modesty构成主谓关系,要用表示主动的现在分词.
7.where;考查连词;句中modesty plays a big part in daily life修饰Chinese people,是一个非限制性定语从句;从句结构完整,要用关系副词;先行词Chinese people表示抽象地点,要用where来引导.
8.lessen;考查名词转化.句中less位于情态动词后作句子地点谓语,要用动词形式;less的动词是lessen.
9.that;考查连词.句中on average,the British people don't take themselves too…是作系动词的表语,是一个表语从句;句意表达的是事实,要用that来连接,且不可省略.
10.seriously;考查动词短语.take sth seriously认真对待某事.

点评 语法填空题是考查学生的语言运用能力.解题时,要在理解文章的基础上,灵活运用语法知识,如词性,时态,名词单复数,连接词,代词,冠词等判断空白处应填写的内容.答完后,还要通读全文,核对所填单词形式是否正确,是否符合语境.

17.Prague
Prague is an ancient European city,featuring one of the most magnificent Old Towns in Europe,along with delicious food,inexpensive shopping and friendly people.Prague is also famous as being home to one of the most famous 20th century writers,Franz Kafka.The famous Czech beer is also one of the reasons to visit Prague.
The narrow streets of the older parts of the town are appealing the visitors to take nice long walk and settle in some of the many restaurants,which offer top-quality foods at a low price.The buildings there are mostly tower-shaped,and so Prague is called"city of a hundred  spires."
Mauritius
Also known as the Paradise on Earth,Mauritius lies about 560miles (900km) east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean.It is a place of magnificent natural beauty coupled with excellent customer service,which makes for an unforgettable romantic experience at the edge of the world's warmest ocean.
There are lots to see and do in Mauritius:the coral reefs (珊瑚礁) surrounding the island offer stunning beauty and great underwater adventures to those who want to dive into the precious waters.The nature of Mauritius mostly resembles that of Paradise,allowing every couple visiting this island to feel like Adam and Eve.That is an experience nobody would want to miss!
Cyprus
The very name Cyprus,it has been said,glitters with an age-old myth.Today,history and hedonism (快乐论) are comfortably mixed on the island.Some five-star resorts within walking distance of well-preserved Greek and Roman ruins offer the convenience the modern traveler has come to expect.
Cyprus features a romantic history,as it was Anthony's gift to his beloved Cleopatra during the glorious days of the Roman Empire.Maybe that is why you feel always a little special once you set foot on Cyprus.
