本文介绍了飞盘的玩法和发展过程。飞盘使人们几乎可以在任何时候玩游戏。人们所需要的只是玩具本身,一些开放的空间和一个朋友。通常在飞盘游戏中,两个人或更多的人只是简单地来回扔飞盘。大多数美国人仍然喜欢老式的飞盘。沃尔特·弗雷德里克·莫里森是现代飞盘的发明者,莫里森重新设计了飞盘,并把它卖给了一家玩具公司。如今,在美国的海滩、公园或大学校园时,总会看到一个飞盘在空中飞舞。
【1】句意:飞盘使人们几乎可以在任何时候玩游戏。
somewhere一些地方;anywhere任何地方;nowhere没有地方;根据最后一段“Nowadays, when you go to a US beach, park or college campus, you will always see a Frisbee flying through the air.”可知当你去美国的海滩、公园或大学校园时,你总会看到一个飞盘在空中飞舞,可推测出是任何地方,故选B。
【2】句意:你所需要的只是玩具本身。
be动词原形;am主语是I;is主语是单数名词;根据“All you need”及下文“the toy itself”,all代指的是下文“the toy”,所以谓语动词用“is”,故选C。
【3】句意:这使得它能在空中长距离飞行。
into进入;across穿过;through通过(空间内部);根据“the air”可知是它能在空中长距离飞行,所以是内部穿过,所以用“through”,故选C。
【4】句意:他们试图在它飞到树上或掉到地上之前抓住它。
catch抓住;take带走;bring带来;根据“two or more people simply throw the thing back and forth. ”可知两个人或更多的人只是简单地来回扔飞盘,可推测出此处是“抓住”,故选A。
【5】句意:还有其他种类的飞盘游戏。
others表泛指,相当于other +名词;other其他的,表泛指,后面加名词;another表示再一个,泛指三个或三个以上的人或者物中没有确定的另一个;根据“There are ____5____ kinds of Frisbee games, like the team sport “Ultimate Frisbee”.”可知是其他种类的飞盘游戏,句中有“kinds”,所以用“other”,故选B。
【6】句意:但大多数美国人仍然喜欢老式的飞盘。
expect期望;prefer更喜欢;achieve取得;根据“But”可知是转折,可推测出此处是“更喜欢”,故选B。
【7】句意:他曾经和他的妻子在加利福尼亚的海滩上玩一个游戏。
play动词原形;plays动词三单;playing动名词,现在分词;used to do sth表示“过去经常,以前常常”,根据“He used to ____7____ a game”可知是过去常常做什么,所以此处缺动词原形,故选A。
【8】句意:后来,他们开始在海滩上以每只25美分的价格出售蛋糕盘。
field田野;beach沙滩;road路;根据前文“with his wife on the beach in California”可知是在沙滩上,所以此处是“beach”,故选B。
【9】句意:并把它卖给了一家玩具公司。
toy玩具;idea主意;pan平底锅;根据“All you need is the toy itself”及“a toy company”可知是玩具,故选A。
【10】句意:当你去美国的海滩、公园或大学校园时。
when当……时(引导的从句中的动词可以是终止性动词,也可以是延续性动词);while当……时(引导的从句中的动词必须是延续性动词);until直到;根据“go to a US beach”是终止性动词,所以用“when”,故选A。
