Answer 1

【答案】

【1】busiest

【2】acknowledged

【3】but

【4】unless

【5】promised

【6】with

【7】amazing

【8】that

【9】achieving

【10】decision

【解析】

试题分析：

【1】busiest 考查形容词。句意：明天是一周最忙碌的一天。此处用最高级，故填busiest。

【2】acknowledged 考查语态。此处与前面的is构成被动语态，所以要用其过去分词形式。故填acknowledged。

【3】but 考查并列连词。此空前后两个分句之间为转折关系，故用并列连词but。句意：你能梦想写一部伟大的美国戏剧，但如果你不开始写就永远实现不了。

【4】unless 考查连词。此句表示“如果不采取行动的话，梦想就不会实现”，前后分句的逻辑关系表示“如果不，除非”，故要用连词unless。

【5】promised 句意：明天不被许诺。此处用被动语态，故填promised。

【6】with 考查介词。此处表示“带着没有实现的梦想走向坟墓”，with表示“带着”。故填with。

【7】amazing 考查形容词。此空修饰things，表示“令人惊异的”，故用amazing。

【8】that 此处用that引导宾语从句，表示convince的内容，故填that。

【9】achieving 考查非谓语动词。固定搭配：stop sb. from doing sth.阻止某人做某事。故填achieving。

【10】decision 考查词性转换。固定搭配：make the decision做出决定。故填decision。
