分析 短文主要讲了世界上最老的一只猫Tiffany Two去世的事情,并对其进行介绍.
解答 61.oldest,考查形容词最高级,根据语境应是"最老的猫记录保持者",因此位于定冠词the后应使用最高级oldest.
62.the,考查固定搭配,at the age of"在…岁的时候".
63.was bought,考查谓语,句子描述的是过去的动作,因此使用一般过去时,buy与其主语Tiffany Two构成被动的关系,故使用被动语态.
64.weeks,考查名词,前有数字six,因此使用可数名词week的复数形式weeks.
65.owned;考查主谓一致.根据这一句前面半句的动词named可知这一句是用的一般过去时,所以这里也应该用一般过去时.故填owned.
66.when;句意:事实上,当Tiffany Two庆祝它27岁生日的时候,相当于人类125岁.故填when.
67.her/the;根据后面的unbelievable age(难以置信的年龄)可知这是指Tiffany Two的年龄,所以可以填her,又因为在上文提到过,也可以填the.故填her/the.
68.recently;考查副词.句意:据报道说最近Tiffany Two的视力听力都很好.故填recently.
69.illnesses;考查形容词的名词形式.ill是形容词,illness是其形容词形式,但是可数名词.故填illnesses.
70.to play;考查动词afraid的用法.be afraid to do 害怕去做某事.故填to play.
点评 对于语法填空这类题,一是懂得分析句子结构,二是知道充当各个句子成分的词类或词性,从语法上确定答案,当然,对于某些固定搭配也要牢记,在平时的学习中要多积累这些词汇或短语,对于句子使用的时态语态也要通过语境进行确定.
