Answer 1

分析 Walter：妈妈，我找不到橡皮擦了．
Mrs．Cook：你再说一遍？这已经是这个月第四次了，你检查你的铅笔盒了吗？
Walter：是的，但是它不在那里．
Mrs．Cook：你在你的房间里找过了吗？
Walter：是的，我找过了．
Mrs．Cook：你的卧室呢？
Walter：不可能在那里，我在我房间里做作业，它不可能在卧室．
Mrs．Cook，好吧，那么，现在从你哥哥那里借一个用，等我把食物放到冰箱后再帮你找它．
Walter：好的．
Mrs．Cook：Walter！看我找到了什么？
Walter：我的橡皮擦！哦，我想起来了，我从冰箱里拿了些果汁然后…！
Mrs．Cook：然后把橡皮擦放到冰箱了．
Walter：好吧，我不记得那部分了．
Mrs．Cook：好吧，拿去吧，下次小心点．

解答 答案：71．time 根据句中Again？That's the fourth…this month可知他是第四次丢了橡皮擦．第四次 the fourth time．故填time
72．around 根据题意是询问他在房间四处找过没有，look around 环顾 故填around
73．couldn't/can't  根据下句I was doing my homework in my room and didn't even go into the living room可知他认为橡皮擦不可能在卧室里，故It couldn't/can'tbe there．couldn't/can't be表示否定猜测，不可能．故填couldn't/can't
74．help 根据上句borrow one from your brother for now，结合下句I'll （74）you find it after I put all the food in the refrigerator可知妈妈是要帮他找．help sb do sth 帮助某人做某事．will后面跟动词原形，故填help
75．found 根据下句My eraser!Oh，I remember!I got some juice from the refrigerator，and…and…可知妈妈找到了橡皮擦．find找到 结合what I've可知此处用现在完成时态，find→found 故填found
