Answer 1

【答案】

【1】interesting

【2】than

【3】It

【4】have been living

【5】Besides

【6】an

【7】that

【8】to buy

【9】certainly

【10】moved\ should move

【解析】

【1】interesting考查形容词作表语。本句缺少接在be动词后面的表语，表语常用形容词充当，而且此处that是副词“那么，那样”，也修饰形容词。句意：有那么有趣吗？故填interesting。

【2】than考查形容词的比较级。其结构为：比较级形容词+than+比较成分，表示“比...更”。填than与前句中的larger构成larger than比......更大。句意：你难道不认为我们应该换一个比现在这套更大的公寓吗？故填than。

【3】It考查it做形式主语。动词不定式，动名词或主语从句作主语时，为避免头重脚轻，通常把它们放在句尾，而用it作形式主语，放到句首。常见句型有： It + be + 形容词+主语从句。句意：很明显这套公寓太小了。故填It。

【4】have been living考查现在完成进行时。其构成为：主语+助动词（have/has）+been+动词的现在分词+其他成分。表示动作从某一时间开始，一直持续到现在，或者刚刚终止，或者可能仍然要继续下去。与since，for连用时，常常表示动作会进行下去。本句出现了since，并且表示动作发生在过去，且一直持续到现在。句意：自从我们结婚以来，就一直住在这儿。故填have been living。

【5】Besides考查besides做副词的用法。besides做副词时表示此外，而且。句意：我喜欢这个老地方，而且，我们也不需要那么多房间。故填Besides。

【6】an考查不定冠词的用法。不定冠词a 用在以辅音音素开头的单词前，an 用在以元音音素开头的单词前。元音音素有 [i:] [i] [e] [ ae] [a:] [ ] [ :] [u:] [u] [ ] [ :] [ ]

[ei][ai][u ] [au] [i ] [i ][ ] [ u]。句意：我们还需要一间卧室。故填an。

【7】that考查so...that句型。so...that... 如此……以致于……。句意：我如此开心以致于都不敢相信。故填that。

【8】to buy考查动词不定式作目的状语。动词不定式和不定式短语作目的状语时，主要用来修饰动词，表示某一动作或状态的目的，其逻辑主语通常是句子的主语，表示“目的是”“目的是为了”。句意：但是我们到哪里去弄足够的钱来买大房子呢？故填to buy。

【9】certainly考查副词。副词修饰动词，形容词。此处help是谓语动词，所以要用副词修饰。句意：我的工资会有一定的帮助。故填certainly。

【10】moved\ should move考查虚拟结构。it was (high)time that现在是时候做......了，此句型要用虚拟结构，从句谓语可以是过去式或should+动词原形。句意：我们现在是时候要搬家了。故填moved\ should move。
