这篇短文给我们讲述了一个国王想要把自己国家的路都用皮革覆盖,而仆人建议他只要穿上皮鞋保护好自己的脚就可以了。故事告诉我们:要让这个世界成为一个快乐的地方,你需要改变的是你自己,而不是这个世界。
【1】句意:从前有一个国王,统治着一个富有的国家。根据句子结构可知,空后是一个定语从句,修饰前面的名词king,故这里填关系代词who。
【2】句意:一天,他去他的国家里一些很远的地方旅行。根据上文there was a king…可知,这里应指“他的国家的一些地方”,故应填country。
【3】句意:当他回到他的宫殿时,他抱怨说他的脚很痛,因为这是他第一次做这么长距离的旅行,而且他走的路高低不平,有石头。根据空后his feet were very painful可知,这里表示他“抱怨说…”,故用complain,是一个动词。短文讲述的这个故事用了一般过去时,故这里应填过去式complained。
【4】句意:当他回到他的宫殿时,他抱怨说他的脚很痛,因为这是他第一次做这么长距离的旅行,而且他走的路高低不平,有石头。根据句意可知,空后解释国王的脚很痛的原因,故这里填because,引导原因状语从句。
【5】句意:然后他命令他的人用皮革覆盖全国的每一条道路。根据句意可知,国王命令他的人去做…,这里应用动词order,全文使用的是一般过去时态,故这里填过去式ordered。
【6】句意:当然,这就需要几千头牛的皮,也会花费很多的钱。根据空后a large amount of money可知,这里表示“花费”,空前有would,故填原形cost。
【7】句意:你为什么要花费那么多不必要的钱?根据下文Why don't you just cut out a little piece of leather to cover your own ___8___ ?可知,仆人建议国王只要保护好自己的脚就可以了,不需要花费那些没必要花费的钱,所给的单词necessary是“必要的”,这里应用否定的意思unnecessary,“不必要的”。
【8】句意:你为什么不仅仅切下一块牛皮覆盖住你自己的脚呢?根据上文that his feet were very painful可知,国王的脚很痛,所以他的仆人建议他把自己的脚用牛皮覆盖住,foot是单数,这里应填复数形式feet。
【9】句意:国王很吃惊,但是后来他听从了仆人的建议,让人为他制作了鞋。根据句意可知,这里指国王让人为他制作皮鞋,故用动词make。句中使用了句型have sth. done,使某事被…,因此这里填过去分词made。
【10】句意:事实上,这个故事给了我们一个启示:要让这个世界成为一个快乐的地方,你最好改变你自己—你的心,而不是这个世界。根据句意可知,故事告诉我们要改变自己,而不是改变世界,you“你,你们”,是人称代词,这里应填反身代词yourself“你自己”。
这篇短文讲述了一个国王的故事,因为他走了很长的路,脚很痛,他就想把全国的路都铺上皮革。他的一个仆人建议他只要保护好自己的脚就可以了。故事告诉我们:要让这个世界成为一个快乐的地方,你最好改变你自己—你的心,而不是这个世界。故事很简单易懂,题型是选择适当的单词,用其正确的形式填空,题目中给出了12个单词,有两个空是多余的。做题时,应先浏览所给单词,弄清楚他们的意思;然后阅读短文,根据文意先选择适当的单词,然后根据句中使用的时态、句型等,变化单词的正确形式。例如第3小题,根据空后his feet were very painful可知,这里表示他“抱怨说…”,故用complain,是一个动词。短文讲述的这个故事用了一般过去时,故这里应填过去式complained。再如第7小题,根据下文Why don't you just cut out a little piece of leather to cover your own ___8___ ?可知,仆人建议国王只要保护好自己的脚就可以了,不需要花费那些没必要花费的钱,所给的单词necessary是“必要的”,这里应用否定的意思unnecessary,“不必要的”。

Africa is the second largest continent(大陆) in the world. To its southeast lies the Indian Ocean, and toward the west is the Atlantic Ocean. It is also the continent with the world’s second largest population(more than 1 billion) behind Asia.
The continent is home to the world’s tallest animal, giraffes. People can also find crocodiles(鳄鱼), elephants, zebras and hippos(河马) there.
Africa is great to visit. About 60 percent of Africa is made up of drylands and deserts. The most famous one is the Sahara, the largest hot desert in the world. Mount Kilimanjaro(乞力马扎罗山) in east Africa stands 5895metres into the sky. It is the highest point in the continent. Though it lies in the tropics(热带), it is covered with ice and snow year-round. The famous East Africa’s Great Rift Valley(东非大裂谷) goes through the land of Africa. As the longest rift on Earth, it is easy to see from the space.
The continent is famous for its hundreds of ethnic(种族) groups. The three largest ethnic groups are the Hausa, Lgbo and Yoruba. They are all in west Africa. West Africa is also rich in natural resources like cocoa, diamonds and coffee. Cote d’lvoire(科特迪瓦) is the world’s biggest producer of cocoa.
Although many places in Africa are poor, this is not the whole picture. South Africa is the richest country in Africa. Some parts of the country are wealthy. Modern and well-developed roads are common everywhere. You can also spend a day in a large shopping mall or taste delicious seafood in a restaurant.
