【解析】
试题分析:本文属于记叙文,讲述了Johnson赖以为生的奶牛摔死以后,他努力开发被人抛弃的农场的潜力得以生活下去的事情。
【1】a考查冠词。本句中使用不定冠词a,表示泛指。句意:他有一个农村,这个农场看上去好像是被抛弃的。
【2】Luckily 考查副词。根据后一句:他有一头奶牛,每天都产奶。这对他来说是一件很幸运的事情。所以本句中使用副词luckily作状语修饰整个句子。
【3】for 考查固定搭配。短语exchange.... for....用...交换....;他到城里卖掉牛奶或把一些牛奶换成其他食物,用剩下的牛奶做奶酪或黄油。
【4】was left 考查时态语态。根据本文第一句可知本文叙述的是过去发生的事情,所以要使用一般过去时。同时根据句意可知他把剩下的牛奶做成奶酪和黄油。所以使用被动语态was left。
【5】when 考查固定句式。句式be doing sth when...作者做某事在这时发生了意料之外的事情。其中的when是一个并列连词。句意:有一天奶牛正在吃草在这时开始下起了大雨。
【6】fell 考查时态。本文叙述的是过去发生的事情,所以使用一般过去时。奶牛在跑的时候,摔下了山,死掉了。
【7】without 考查上下文串联。根据上句可知奶牛摔死了,所以他努力地在没有奶牛的情况下活下去。
【8】to sell 考查不定式用法。在高中英语中,常常使用不定式充当目的状语。本句表示他砍树来卖木材谋生。
【9】where 考查定语从句。本题定语从句的先行词是the market,关系代词where引导定语从句,并在句中充当地点状语。
【10】考查代词。本句是一个固定句型:sth occur to sb某人突然想起某事;本句中的it就是指文章的主人公Mr. Johnson。
