Question

【题目】阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Paul Lucas can often be seen walking around the city of San Francisco. Sometimes people are surprised to see him walking 【1】 any shoes or socks, but Lucas doesn’t mind at all. He likes to walk barefoot, and so do 640 other 【2】(member) of Dirty Sole Society, the club that Lucas 【3】 (start) years ago. Lucas’ idea for this is to encourage others to live freely－free of shoes.

Lucas says that walking barefoot allows you to experience the world directly by touching it with your feet. In addition, the feet do not smell so much because they stay dry, 【4】 (make) it hard for bacteria(细菌) to grow. And, of course, walking barefoot keeps your feet in good shape, so it’s actually 【5】 (healthy) than wearing shoes.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】without

【2】members

【3】started

【4】making

【5】healthier

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。Paul Lucas喜欢赤脚走路无视别人的惊讶，他还参加了Dirty Sole Society俱乐部，文中给出了他们认为赤脚走路的好处。

【1】考查介词。通过上下文联系，此处描述的是人们惊讶于他不穿鞋子赤足行走。故填without。

【2】考查名词的数。根据其前640 other可知，此处用名词复数，故填members。

【3】考查动词时态。根据时间状语years ago可知动词用过去时，故填started。

【4】考查非谓语动词。句中make的主语和句子主语the feet一致，此处作状语用动词-ing形式，故填making。

【5】考查形容词比较级。根据句中than可知用比较级，指赤脚比穿鞋更健康。故填healthier。
