【答案】
【1】impossible
【2】sold
【3】thanks to
【4】don’t listen
【5】advice
【解析】
本文主要介绍了K-cup这项发明的成功以及对环境的危害。
【1】句意:K-cups几乎不可能回收。
根据上文“Because it's bad for the environment”可知,K-cups对环境有害,所以它几乎不可能回收再利用,故此处应为形容词impossible不可能的。故答案为impossible。
【2】句意:1997年,他以5万美元的价格将这项发明卖给了绿山咖啡。
根据语境及句子结构可知,此处缺少谓语动词sell售卖。根据关键词in 1997可知,本句为一般过去时,故此处应用其过去式sold。故答案为sold。
【3】句意:大部分的钱都是靠K-cup赚来的。
根据语境及句子结构可知,此处缺少介词短语thanks to多亏,由于,即“多亏了K-Cups,才赚来这么多钱”。故答案为thanks to。
【4】句意:我告诉他们怎样改善K-Cup,但是他们不听。
根据语境及句子结构可知,此处缺少谓语动词。John Sylvan已经告诉绿山咖啡该怎样改善K-cup,but表转折,故可推知绿山咖啡没有听从,故此处应用listen的否定形式。本句对于说话人自身来说,应为一般现在时,主语they为人称复数,故此处应为don’t listen。故答案为don’t listen。
【5】句意:然而,绿山咖啡拒绝了John Sylvan的建议。
根据语境及句子结构可知,John Sylva's为名词所有格,其后应为名词。结合语境可知,绿山咖啡公司没有接受John Sylva提出的解决方法,也就是建议advice,不可数。故答案为advice。
做选词填空类题目时,首先大致浏览单词与文章,翻译单词大意,比如本文主要介绍了K-cup这项发明的成功以及对环境的危害;然后明确词性,做好词性分类;最后分析句子大意与结构,看其缺少什么成分,将选项对号入座,比如第二小题缺少动词,第五小题缺少名词等。
