分析 本文主要通过研究得出了水对提高考试成绩会有一定帮助的结论;一项来自伦敦的研究表明,考试时带着水进考场的学生的成绩能多考百分之十;英国的科学家们对东伦敦大学448名攻读不同学位的学生进行的研究发现,所有带着水参加考试的学生的分数都比平时的成绩高出了两到十个百分点;虽然至今我们仍不知道为什么考试时喝水能够提高成绩,但是科学家告诉我们喝足够的水、让身体不感到饥渴有助于大脑的运转,喝水还能够减少焦虑,而焦虑在考试时是我们的大敌.他还说:"不管原因是什么,学生们应该尽量在考试时保持身体水分充足."所以,下次当你要参加一项重大考试时,试着带一瓶水去,这瓶水很可能会让你通过考试呢!
解答 答案:
25.bringing 考查现在分词 此处在句中作后置定语,修饰名词students;意为"带着水进考场的学生";由于动词bring与该名词构成了主谓关系;故用现在分词bringing.
26.had brought 考查时态 由于此处的动作发生在主句的谓语动词 found(find的过去时)表示的动作之前,即表示发生在过去之前的动作;故用过去完成时had brought.
27.before 考查从属连词 本句的意思是:在学生们考试之前,科学家们就在纸上写下了他们可能会取得的分数;故用before.
28.why 考查特殊疑问词 本句的意思是:目前还不清楚为什么喝水就可以提高考试成绩;故用why.
29.which 考查关系代词 根据句意以及空缺处之前的逗号可知,本句为非限定性定语从句;此处的关系代词指代的是先行词 anxiety,意为:喝水还能够减少焦虑,而焦虑在考试时是我们的大敌;故用which.
30.Whatever 考查连接代词 由于上文分析了喝水可以提高考试成绩的可能的原因,而这里起着承接上文的作用;意为:不管原因是什么;故填Whatever.
31.should 考查情态动词 本句的意思是:很明显,学生在考试期间应该保持身体水分充足;故填should.
32.furnishing 考查固定结构 固定结构try doing 意为:尝试做某事;故用furnishing.
