Question

5．When I was eight，Alex came to our school，（61）whose parents divorced．His clothes and hairstyle（62）were（be） old-fashioned．Some of the children teased him about these things，but I didn't，because I felt sorry（63）for him．
    One day a group of us had a game of football on（64）the way to school．One of the（65）oldest（old） boys pushed me and I fell over and（66）tore（tear） my jeans so badly that I had to go home（67）to change（change）．I arrived very late for school．I expected（68）to be scolded（scold） for it，but nothing happened．
    After class，the teacher talked about the incident and told me to be careful in the future．I asked how he knew about it．He said，"Alex told me what happened and gave me a detailed（69）description（describe） of it．"
    That afternoon I walked home with Alex and thanked him for what he had done．（70）Unlikepeople said about Alex，I knew he was a true friend．

Answer 1

分析 在我8岁的时候，Alex来到我们学校，他的父母离婚了，没有人管他，所以他破烂的衣服和头发成为人们嘲笑的对象，我却是为他感到难过．一次，在踢球的时候，我的裤子破了，不得不回家去换．所以到校晚了，我认为自己会被责备，结果老师却关心我是否有问题，原来Alex告诉了老师我的事情．我觉得他才是一个真正的朋友．

解答 1．whose．考查定语从句的关系词．修饰先行词Alex，做定语从句parents divorced的定语，用whose．
2．were．考查系动词的时态．因为讲述的是过去的故事，同时和主语His clothes and hairstyle一致，所以用were．
3．for．考查介词．be sorry for sb 表示"为某人感到难过"．
4．the．考查冠词．固定短语on the way to 表示"在去某地的路上"．
5．oldest．考查形容词的比较等级．根据空前的One of 和the可知用形容词的最高级，表示"我们中间最大的孩子"．
6．tore．考查谓语动词的时态．和上文以及fell over呼应用过去式 tore．
7．to change．考查非谓语动词．做 go home的目的状语，表示"回家换裤子"，用动词不定式to change．
8．to be scolded．考查非谓语动词． expect用动词不定式做宾语，而且主语I和scold之间是被动关系，所以用to be scolded，表示"我预计自己会被责备"．
9．description．考查派生词．被形容词detailed修饰用名词description．表示"一个详细的描述"．
70．Unlike．考查介词．因为I knew he was a true friend表示"我知道他是一个真正的朋友"，这个看法和其他人不同，所以用Unlike．

点评 考查语法填空．
有一些动词用动名词做宾语，例如finish，apreciate，mind等等；而另外一些动词需要用动词不定式做宾语，例如want，would like，advise等等；还有一些即可以用动名词，有可以用doing，但是含义不同，例如forget to do 表示"忘记去做"；forget doing表示"忘记做过"．
