Question

【题目】阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Last week I 【1】 (take) on a difficult task of showing kindness. The idea came from a few posts on a website. I decided 【2】 (reach) out to a few people I hadn’t talked to for the past few years.

One was a cousin, 【3】 I had lost touch with for 25 years. She was very happy when we got 【4】 touch. The other two were friends I hadn’t talked to in nearly 10 years. It was really good to talk to 【5】 (they) both.

With one of them, I reached out at a great time for him. He had forgotten my name 【6】 (entire) but remembered I disliked 【7】 (run) when young because I had asthma（哮喘）. He was grateful that I called him and said some very kind 【8】 (thing) to me about our past. I am glad our friendship mattered to him.

I think 【9】 is good to be the one to take the initiative（主动性）to be kind and reach out. Even if it seems difficult at the time, in the end it offers 【10】 (wonder) rewards!

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】took

【3】who/whom

【7】running

【8】things

【10】wonderful

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在上周，完成了一项艰巨的任务，即主动联系一些在过去几年里，没有联系过的人。

【1】

考查时态。此处缺乏谓语动词，由时间Last week可知，此处是对过去事实的描述，应用一般过去时。故填took。

【2】

考查动词不定式。固定搭配decide to do sth.，意为“决定做某事”，应用动词不定式（to do）。故填to reach。

【3】

考查定语从句关系词。此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词是a cousin，指人，关系词在从句中作宾语，应用关系代词who/whom。故填who/whom。

【4】

考查介词。固定搭配get in/into touch.，意为“取得联系”，应用介词in/into。故填in/into。

【5】

考查代词。介词to后，用宾格，应用them。故填them。

【6】

考查副词。该空修饰动词短语had forgotten，用副词修饰动词，此空用副词形式。故填entirely。

【7】

考查动名词。固定搭配dislike doing sth.，意为“不喜欢做某事”，应用动名词（doing）。故填running。

【8】

考查名词的数。thing是可数名词，其前由some修饰，应用名词复数形式。故填things。

【9】

考查代词。think后接宾语从句，从句缺少主语，从句真正主语是to be the one to take the initiative（主动性）to be kind and reach out，此处用形式主语it指代，避免头重脚轻。故填it。

【10】

考查形容词。名词rewards要用形容词修饰，应用形容词形式。故填wonderful。
