试题分析:微笑着面对每个人,人生将是另一种风景。作者通过亲身经历告诉了我们他的具体做法。
【1】had worn∕ had been wearing考查时态。句意:我发现从童年时代就一直挂在脸上的忧伤的表情意味着当然要失败。wear比动词meant发生的早,故用had worn∕had been wearing。
【2】hardship考查名词。此处由so many years of修饰用名词,指“这么多年的艰辛”,故用hard的名词形式hardship。
【3】forced考查形容词。句意:我发现这种笑不能是强迫的笑。空前有a空后有名词smile,此处用形容词“强迫的”,故填force的形容词forced。
【4】an考查冠词。句意:这必须是一种发自内心的诚实善意的微笑。smile是可数名词表“一种……微笑”,故填an。
【5】how考查副词。此处指让我们看看怎样开始15分钟的训练。下面讲的是具体步骤,故填how。
【6】Before考查介词。此处指在进入办公室前先想想我必须感恩的一些事。根据句意填Before。
【7】to get考查不定式。句子是倒装句,其中it是形式主语不定式做真正主语,表示具体的动作。故填to get。
【8】in考查固定短语。in return“作为回报”,故填in。
【9】and考查连词。句意:给你遇到的每个人你最好的微笑,然后看看你感觉多么好。上下句是顺承关系,故填and。
【10】myself考查代词。句意:当我开始这样做的时候,我发现自己到处都更受欢迎了。此处指作者自己,故填myself。
