本文是一个小故事。一个有钱的女人有一个珍贵而美丽的花瓶,她为此感到非常自豪。她决定把卧室漆成和花瓶一样的颜色。几位画家都不能让这位女士满意。最后,一个叫彼得的画家说他肯定能把颜色调对。他成功了。女人对这个结果很满意,画家彼得变得很有名。许多年后,他的儿子问他怎么把那些墙和花瓶配得如此完美。画家彼得回答:“我画了花瓶!”
【1】句意:一个有钱的女人有一个珍贵而美丽的花瓶,她为此感到非常自豪。
短语“be proud of”:以……为自豪,为……感到骄傲;故答案为proud。
【2】句意:她决定把卧室漆成和花瓶一样的颜色。
短语“the same…as…”:和……一样的……;故答案为same。
【3】句意:几位画家试图把颜色混合得恰到好处,但没有人能足以让这位女士满意。
根据“but”可知“没有人能足以让这位女士满意。”本句缺少主语,可知填代词或名词,结合所给词可知填nobody。
【4】句意:女人对这个结果很满意,画家彼得变得很有名。
短语“be happy with”:对……满意,因……高兴;故选happy。
【5】句意:许多年后,彼得退休了,把他的生意交给了儿子。
根据上文“彼得退休了”可知“把他的生意交给了儿子”,故填his(他的)
