Question

【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
I can well remember that I was once asked to deliver a speech titled “A Real Test in My Life” before the whole class at the age of 9! You can imagine how (terrible) shy I was with so many eyes (fix) upon me. I had no (choose) but to prepare for it, though. First of all, I was to draft the speech, which was just a piece of cake for me, a good writer. But the hardest part (lie) in my oral presentation from my memory— for to read from the paper was not allowed. The real moment began I stood on the platform with my legs trembling and my mind blank. But my listeners were waiting patiently without any signs of rushing me. Otherwise, I (run) away from them. Gradually I found myself back, delivering my speech with difficulty. After what seemed to be a hundred years, I found my audience applauding— I made ! From then on, my fear of talking before an audience disappeared. Actually with my (confident) building up, I now turn out to be a great speaker. Looking back, I know the greatest difficulty on our way success is our fear. Overcome it we will be able to achieve our goals.

Answer 1

【答案】terribly；fixed；choice；lay；when；would have run；it；confidence；to；and
【解析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者以前害怕在公众面前讲话,但后来克服了恐惧心理,最终随着自信的增长,成了一名伟大的演说家。

⑴terribly考查副词。分析句子结构可知,该句中副词修饰形容词 shy,故填 terribly。

⑵fixed考查非谓语动词。该句中 with 复合结构中的so many eyes与fix之间为被动关系,故用过去分词形式。因此填 fixed。 短语 fix one' s eyes on 把目光集中在……。

⑶choice 考查名词。no 后接名词,且该句式为 have no choice but to do sth.意为“除了做某事外,别无选择” 。故填 choice。

⑷lay考查动词时态。根据本文的时间状语 at the age of 9可知,本句应为一般过去时态,且短语lie in意为“ 在

于”,lie 当“存在,位于”讲时,其过去式为 lay,过去分词为 lain。 故该空填 lay。 误解分析:lay 当动词原形时,其意为 “下蛋,产卵” ,其过去式和过去分词都为 laid;lie当“说谎”讲,此时其过去式和过去分词都为 lied。

⑸when 考查关系副词。分析句子结构可知,该句为间隔式定语从句,其先行词为 The real moment,且定语从句中有主语和宾语,故用 when 来引导该定语从句。

⑹would have run 根据Otherwise要不然的话，可知后面用虚拟语气，“要不然的话我找就跑走了”，故填would have run。

⑺it 考查代词。根据上文的“I found my audience applauding”可知,“我”成功了。故填 it。短语 make it意为“成功”。

⑻confidence 句意：随着我信心的增强。根据句意可知用名词形式，故填confidence。

考查动词时态。 根据上文的“ I made it!”以及时间状语“From then on”可知,从那时起,作者在许多人前讲话的恐惧感消失了。故填 disappeared。

⑼to 考查介词。根据语境可知,此处表示“通往成功的最大的困难是我们的恐惧” ,故用to或towards。

⑽and 考查连词。该句考查固定句型:祈使句+and+陈述句。故该空填 and。
