Question

【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

This is a true story which happened in the States. 【1】 man came out of his home to admire his new truck. To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was 【2】 (happy) hammering dents(凹痕) into the shiny paint of the truck. The man ran to his son, knocked him away, hammered the little boy's hands into pulp(果浆汁) as 【3】 (punish). When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital.

Although the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he finally had to cut the fingers from both the boy's hands. When the boy 【4】 (wake) up from the operation and saw his bandaged stubs, he innocently said, “Daddy, I'm sorry about your truck, 【5】 when are my fingers going to grow back?”

The father went home and committed suicide.

Think about this story the next time someone steps on your 【6】 (foot) or you wish to take revenge(报复). Think first 【7】 you lose your patience with someone you love. Trucks can be repaired, but 【8】 (break) bones and hurt feelings often can't. Too often we fail to recognize the difference between the person and the performance. We forget that forgiveness is 【9】 (great) than revenge.

People make mistakes. We 【10】 (allow) to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will impress us forever.

【解析】

试题分析: 本文属于夹叙夹议类短文，以美国发生的一起悲剧告诉我们要原谅别人的错误。

【1】A 考查冠词。本句中名词man是可数名词，前面使用不定冠词a表示泛指。

【2】happily 考查副词。在英语中副词通常作状语，修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子。本句中副词happily修饰谓语动词was hammering dents。

【3】punishment 考查名词。在介词的后面通常使用名词作宾语，本句中使用名词punishment作为介词as的宾语。

【4】woke 考查时态。本文叙述的是一件过去的事情，全文主要使用一般过去时。所以本句使用过去式woke。

【5】but 考查连词。句意：对你的车我很抱歉，但我的手指能够什么时候能够长出来？上下文之后是转折关系，所以使用连词but连接前后句。

【6】feet 考查固定短语。短语step on one's feet踩到某人的脚。句意：当下一次别人踩到你的脚或你要报复的时候，请想想这个故事。

【7】before 考查连词。before“在……之前”，引导时间状语从句。句意：在你失去耐心之前请好好想一想。

【8】broken 考查形容词。broken“坏掉的，破碎的”，该词在句中作定语修饰名词bones，与hurt feelings构成并列关系。

【9】greater 考查比较级。横线后的than说明应该使用比较级。句意：我们忘记了原谅比报复更伟大。

【10】are allowed 考查语态。本句主语we与动词allow构成被动关系，所以使用被动语态are allowed。
