Since proposing marriage(求婚) is such a big deal, it’s 【1】 surprising that some men want to make 【2】special.
A man in the US tried his best when he climbed a steep cliff(陡峭的悬崖) 【3】asking her girlfriend to marry him using a video app on his phone, but then had to 【4】(rescue) from the dangerous location by a helicopter(直升机).
Michael Bank, 27, climbed the 600-foot(800-meter) Morro rock off California’s Central Coast in the US, according【5】the BBC.
The good news is that his girlfriend said【6】to his offer of marriage. The 【7】news is that he now has to pay a large bill for his helicopter rescue.
“He couldn’t go in any direction—with his feet dangling(悬空) 80 feet off the 【8】,”Morro Bay Fire Captain Todd Gailey said.
Climbing on Morro Rock is 【9】(official) not allowed, though some people like Bank ignore the warnings. There have been seven 【10】(die) from falls over the years.
【答案】
【1】no/not
【2】it
【3】before
【4】be rescued
【5】to
【6】yes
【7】bad
【8】ground
【9】officially
【10】deaths
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。说明了男人一生中最重要的时刻之一就是求婚。这也是他可能拥有的最激动人心和难忘的时刻之一。而近些年一些美国人采取爬上悬崖求婚的求婚方式,已经造成7人坠亡。
【1】考查固定短语。句意:既然求婚是件大事,一些男人想让它变得特别也就不足为奇了。短语it is no/not surprising that…表示“毫不奇怪;不足为奇”。故填no/not。
【2】考查it作形式宾语。动词make后跟形式宾语it构成短语make it special“特别”,为固定用法,故填it。
【3】考查介词。句意:近日,美国一名男子在向女友求婚前,用手机上的一款视频应用程序爬上了一座陡峭的悬崖,但随后却被直升机从危险的地方救了出来。根据后文可知,表示“在……之前”,应填介词before。
【4】考查动词的时态语态。本句主语A man与谓语动词rescue构成被动关系,且根据上文have to do“不得不……”后跟动词原形,故填be rescued。
【5】考查固定短语。句意:据英国广播公司报道,27岁的迈克尔·班克爬上了美国加州中部海岸外600英尺(800米)高的莫罗岩石。短语according to“根据;按照”,故填to。
【6】考查名词。句意:好消息是他女朋友答应了他的求婚。根据上文good news可知,女朋友答应了他的求婚。故选yes。
【7】考查形容词。句意:坏消息是,他现在必须为他的直升机救援支付一大笔钱。根据下文he now has to pay a large bill for his helicopter rescue可知,是坏消息,故填形容词bad。
【8】考查固定短语。句意:莫罗湾消防队队长托德·盖利说,他的脚悬在离地面80英尺的空中,无法向任何方向移动。短语off the ground“悬空;离开地面”。故填ground。
【9】考查副词。句意:官方不允许攀爬摩洛岩,尽管一些像班克这样的人无视警告。allow为动词需要副词修饰,故填officially。
【10】考查名词的数。句意:这些年来已有7人死于坠亡。分析结构可知,句子缺少主语,故应填名词death,表示“死亡”且由seven修饰,故填复数形式deaths。
it作形式宾语的用法。
当不定式(短语)、动名词(短语)或从句在某个句子中作宾语时,为保持句子结构平衡,避免句式结构的混乱,常用it作形式宾语,而将真正的宾语放在句尾。此时it仍只起先行引导作用,本身无词义。其基本结构为“动词+it+宾语补足语+不定式(动名词或从句)”。
① 当不定式(短语)、动名词(短语)或从句在复合宾语结构中作某些动词的宾语时(如think, make, find, consider, feel, suppose等);
基本句式结构——
一、动词+ it + that-从句。如:
(1)sb find/ believe/ think/ feel/ consider/ make + it +n+to do/that从句,如:I take it (that) he will come on time. 我认为他会准时来的。
He makes it a rule never to borrow money.(他立志决不向别人借钱。)
I think it no need talking about it with them.(我认为没必要跟他们谈。)
(2)sb find/think/make + it + adj. + to do sth/that 从句(宾语从句)如:I don’t feel it difficult to understand the Special English.(我觉得理解英语特别节目并不难。)
I find it interesting to learn English.
如第二小题,动词make后跟形式宾语it构成短语make it special“特别”,为固定用法,故填it。
二、动词 + prep + it + that-从句。如:
I can’t answer for it that he will come. 我不能保证他会来。
You may rely on it that he’ll come to meet you. 你放心,他会来接你的。
You may depend on it that we shall always help you.(尽管放心,我们会随时帮你的。)
说明:能用于此结构的动词不多,常见的有see to, look to, insist on, stick to, depend on, answer for 等。
注意: that引导的宾语从句不能直接作介词的宾语
三、动词 + it + 介词短语+ that-从句。如:
We owe it to you that there wasn’t a serious accident.(多亏了你才没有发生严重事故。)
I took it for granted that he would help us. 我认为他会帮助我们的。
注意:由及物动词与介词组成的固定搭配中,宾语从句若作该动词的宾语时,须借用it。常见的有take it for granted, bring it to sb’s attention, owe it to sb 等。
四、动词 + it + when /if/that-从句。如:
(1)sb+hate / dislike / love / like+it+when-从句
I hate it when my mother asks me to eat eggs.(我讨厌母亲要我吃鸡蛋。)
I dislike it when you whistle. 我不爱听你吹口哨。
(2)sb+appreciate/prefer+it+if-从句
I really appreciate it if you could help me with my math.
I’d prefer it if I didn’t have to do so much work. 要是我不必做那么多工作,好就太好了。
