In 10 (conclude), he has made outstanding contributions to the fields of cosmology and quantum gravity.

【答案】

Bhistory是不可数名词,前面一般不加冠词;knowledge也是不可数名词,但knowledge前加不定冠词,后跟of时组成aknowledgeof结构,表示“对精通、了解”。所以答案为B。

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙性的人物传记,介绍了著名的物理学家霍金的主要生平事迹,以及它对物理学和量子引力的巨大贡献。

1考查动名词。英语中介词的后面通常接名词、动词或动名词做宾语,所以本句中使用动名词designing作为介词about的宾语。

2考查副词。英语中副词通常做状语修饰形容词、副词动词或者整个句子。本句中but说明这一空应使用表示否定意义的副词unfortunately。句意:小时候他热衷于设计复杂的玩具,但不幸地是,二十多岁的时候,他患上了一种不能治愈的疾病。

3考查固定搭配。动词短语suffer from…患上疾病句意不幸地是,二十多岁的时候,他患上了一种不能治愈的疾病。

4考查定语从句关系代词。本句中关系代词which指代前面一句话的内容,引导非限制性定语从句,并在句中做主语。句意不幸地是,二十多岁的时候,他患上了一种不能治愈的疾病这对他来说是一个巨大的挑战。

5考查时态。文章这部分内容介绍霍金患病以后的事情,都使用了一般过去时。所以本句使用过去式defeated。

6考查固定搭配。短语be absorbed in…专注于….;霍金战胜了疾病在大学里仍然专注于研究。

7考查时态语态。本句叙述过去发生的事情,且主语A Brief History of Time和动词构成被动关系,所以使用一般过去时的被动语态was published。

8考查同位语从句。同位语从句的连词that只起引导作用,在句中不做成份不能省略。本句中的that引导同位语从句,解释名词the idea。

9考查冠词。名词end结束,结尾;这是一个可数名词,不定冠词an表示泛指;本句中的an end与前半句的a beginning形成呼应。

10考查固定搭配。介词短语in conclusion总之;该短语表示总结归纳。句意:总之,霍金在宇宙学和量子重力方面做出了杰出的贡献。

本文考查了不定冠词用法通常不定冠词a/an表示泛指,我们要特别注意不定冠词的几种特殊用法:

①专有名词前用不定冠词,表示“像的一个人或物”。如:HethinksheisaNapoleon.

②姓名前用不定冠词,表示“某个叫的人”,多指不认识的人。如:AMissSmithcametoseeyouthatafternoon.

③用于某些物质名词前,表示“一种、一份、一阵”等。如:—Whatwouldyouliketodrink?—Ateaandacoffee.

④用于某些抽象名词前,使抽象概念具体化。这种用法的名词有surprise,knowledge,success,failure,pleasure,interest,joy等等。

如:Allhiseffortsendedinfailure.

⑤不定冠词用在population,history,area,height,weight,depth,length,speed等词前。

如:Toescapethepulloftheearth,arocketmustreachaspeedof40,000kmh。

【例】Ofallthesubjects,Ilike___historythebestbecauseitgivesus___usefulknowledgeofthingsinthepast.

A.the;a B./;a C.a;the D.a;/
