Question

【题目】It was a dreadfully cold and cloudy afternoon. I was on the bus with my children, aged four and two, 【1】(head) home when it started to rain. I realized this would mean a wet walk home 【2】 the bus stop.

【3】 my house was only two blocks away, it was not a pleasant walk with one small boy asleep in the pram (手推婴儿车), the other one in a raincoat and no umbrella for myself. A pick-up truck passed us on the road. I tried to thumb a ride but failed. My little boy woke up with a start and began to cry. I 【4】(convince) that things might become worse and nobody would bother to help on such a terrible day. A few minutes later, 【5】truck drove by, but to my surprise, I saw it pulling back and the driver looking directly at us.

I stood there【7】(astonish), barely believing that the man 【8】 existence was unknown to me only moments ago, could be so 【9】(consider). “Come on, give this to your mummy,” he said to my older son. I accepted the offer and expressed my gratitude to him.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】heading

【3】Although/Though/While

【4】was convinced

【5】another

【6】it

【7】astonished

【8】whose

【9】considerate

【10】that

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者带着两个小孩雨天从公共汽车站步行回家得到别人帮助的故事。一辆卡车上的年轻男子将自己的雨伞让给作者，虽然他们互不相识，虽然他自己稍后可能也需要雨伞。由此，作者感慨，愿意帮助别人而不期待任何回报的人是有的。

【1】考查现在分词作状语。现在分词heading作伴随状语，与主语I之间为主动关系。

【2】考查介词。根据上句"I was on the bus with my children"可知，作者是带着孩子坐公交车回家，因此，此处应该是表示"从"（from）车站走回家。

【3】考查连词。车站距家仅两个街区，但带着一个4岁一个2岁的小孩，没有雨伞的在雨中步行，不是一件愉快的事情。“距离不远”与“不会愉快“之间是让步关系．故本题填though或although或while。

【4】考查过去分词。主语I后缺少谓语动词，be convinced that意为“相信……”，又由于全文都是过去时态，故填was convinced。

【5】考查代词。句意：又一辆卡车经过，使我惊讶的是这辆卡车又倒回来，司机直接看着我们。表示无范围的“另一个”用another。

【6】考查代词。根据here's an umbrella for you, please take it.(这里有把伞给你，拿去吧.)it指代前一句提到的雨伞。

【7】考查过去分词。过去分词作形容词充当主语补足语，表示“吃惊的”。

【8】考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，这是一个定语从句，先行词man指人，在从句中作定语，用关系代词whose。

【9】考查形容词。由be动词可知，此处填形容词作表语，considerate意为“体贴的”。

【10】考查强调句。英语强调句结构：It be+被强调部分+that/who+其他．被强调部分为a lesson，故填that。

小题10考查强调句型，现总结和举例如下：

强调句型常用句型：It is/was +… who/that…

1. 如强调句型指现在或未来的情况用It is，指过去用It was。

e.g. It is I who/ that am wrong.

原句：I am wrong.

e.g. It was him who/that I saw the day before yesterday.

原句：I saw him the day before yesterday.

2. 被强调部分往往为句子的主语、宾语、时间状语、地点状语等，但有时也可以强调比较复杂的内容。如时间状语从句、地点状语从句、not until…结构、not only…but also...和as well as...等结构。

e.g. It was only when I reread his poems recently that I began to appreciate their beauty.

It is not only he but also his parents who/that have been to Beijing.

3. 被强调部分为人称代词时，原句用什么格强调句也用什么格。

4. 关于强调词的选用，强调人时可用who或that，如果不强调人一律用that。此时绝不能与定语从句混淆，被强调部分为时间状语、地点状语、或原因状语时不可误用when，where或why。

e.g. It was in the street that I met him yesterday.

尽管被强调部分是地点状语，强调词不能使用where只可用that。

e.g. It was about 600 years ago that the first clock with a face and an hour hand was made.

e.g. It was because he was ill that died at once.

被强调部分为复杂的原因状语从句强调词不能使用why只可用that。
