Answer 1

分析 本段文字讲述了一位爸爸在看球赛，儿子跑来想和爸爸一起玩传球的游戏，爸爸让孩子先出去玩，5分钟之后再回来．5分钟后，儿子回来了，要求爸爸和他一起玩游戏，可是爸爸的另一场球赛又开始了．对儿子的打扰不耐烦，爸爸把一本杂志的封面撕成碎片，封面是一个大大的世界地图，他要求儿子把这些碎片重新组合起来，然后就会陪他一起玩．几分钟后，孩子就把碎片重新组合起来，爸爸很吃惊，问儿子怎么可以这么快，孩子回答："很简单，封面的背面是一个人物像，根据背面把人像组合起来，正面的世界地图就重新组合好了．"

解答 1．a；考查冠词，match作为"比赛"讲是可数名词，所以这里用不定冠词a泛指"一场"比赛．
2．at；考查介词，stare at是固定搭配，意为"凝视，盯住…看"．
3．screaming；考查分词作状语，现在分词作状语表示主动，过去分词作状语表示被动，分析句子成分，动词scream是由the boy主动发出，故用现在分词形式作状语．
4．Impatient；考查形容词，结合上下文分析，句意应为"对儿子的打扰感动不耐烦"，所以用否定形容词impatient．
5．bothered；考查分词作形容词，过去分词作形容词修饰人，所以这里用过去分词形式作形容词，与angry并列作表语．
6．pieces；考查名词tear sth into pieces是固定词组，意为"把…撕成碎片"．
7．until/before；考查介词，结合上下文分析，句意应为"在你完成之前不要再打断我"，根据句意此处应填until/before．
8．have finished；考查动词的时态，结合语境分析，这是一个发生在过去的动作，强调对现在的影响，故用现在完成时，意为"我已经完成了"．
9．there；考查倒装句，这是"地点副词（there）+谓语+主语"的句型结构，地点副词位于句首，句子用倒装．
10．It；考查代词，这里指代上文"把碎纸片重新组合"这件事，故用It，意为"这很简单"．
