Five days later,a piece of sad news (62)spread throughout Scotland---the strong and powerful ship,Titanic,had gone down,taking (63)hundreds of lives with it.The Clark family was to have been on that ship,but because the son was bitten by a dog,they were left (64)behind in Scotland.

分析 文章大意:
文中提到的有关于泰坦尼克号的事情.有一家人为了去美国旅游,花费了很多年来攒钱.终于有一天,他们拥有了足够的钱可以出发去美国,可是在出发前,自己的儿子却被狗咬了,所以一家人被迫留在了苏格兰.但是,一家人也因此因祸得福.因为他们本来要去美国旅游,乘坐的船就是这艘沉了的船.
解答 56.plans,考察名词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"The couple worked and saved"夫妇努力工作,攒钱,所以应该是"计划"带九个孩子们去旅游,make plans做计划,由此确定填写plans.
57.ready,考察形容词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"It had taken years before they saved enough money"这个计划花费了他们很多时间来攒钱,由此推测应该是将一切准备好花了很多时间,get ready for为…做准备由此确定填写ready.
58.before,考察介词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"they left for the USA"他们出发去美国,根据上文可知,还没有动身,所以应该是在动身之前的七天,因此填写before.
59.but,考察连词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"because there was a possibility of rabies(狂犬病),they would be kept away from others for fourteen days"因为可能会感染狂犬病,所以必须隔离,由此推测即使是接受治疗,也要被隔离,由此确定前后句意发生转折,填写 but
60.true,考察名词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"They would not be able to make the trip to America as they had planned"他们不能按计划去美国旅行,所以家庭的梦想就不能实现了,come true译为实现,由此确定填写true
61.angry,考察形容词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"his son and God for their bad luck"他的儿子和上帝带给他们的坏运气,因为不能去美国旅行,所以应该是生气,be angry with对…生气,由此确定填写angry.
62.spread,考察动词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"a piece of sad news"一个消息,所以推测应该是传遍了苏格兰,spread through译为消息在…传遍了,由于故事发生在过去,所以填写动词不定式,由此确定填写spread.
63.hundreds,考察名词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"Titanic,had gone down"泰坦尼克号轮船沉了,所以应该会死了好多人,hundreds of 译为成百上千的,用来描述死亡人数比较多,所以填写hundreds.
64.behind,考察介词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"because the son was bitten by a dog"因为自己的儿子被狗咬了所以被留在了苏格兰,leave behind留下来,由此确定填写behind.
65.turning,考察动词辨析及上下文理解,文中提到"When Mr Clark heard the news,he thanked his son for saving the family"当Clark先生听到这个消息,他谢谢了自己的儿子救了一家人,由此可以确定是"因祸得福",turn…into把…变成…,因为前边出现介词for,所以应该用动名词形式,填写turning.
