Answer 1

【答案】

【1】excitement

【2】The

【3】which/that

【4】Built

【5】broke

【6】more

【7】however

【8】its

【9】trying

【10】from

【解析】试题分析：本文介绍一年一度的老汽车比赛。它不同于现代汽车的比赛，但并不失兴奋。

【1】excitement 考查名词。a great deal of后接不可数名词，excite的名词形式是excitement，故填excitement。

【2】The 考查定冠词。形容词最高级前需用定冠词the修饰，故填The。

【3】which/that 考查定语从句的引导词。此处为定语从句，先行词是a Benz，指物，故填which或that。

【4】Built 考查非谓语动词。主语it与build构成逻辑上的动宾关系，表被动，且build这一动作已经完成，所以应该用过去分词形式，故填Built。

【5】broke 考查时态。全文讲述的是过去的事情，应该用一般过去时，故填broke。

【6】more 考查形容词比较级。根据后面的“than”可知，此处有比较意义，应该用比较级，故填more。

【7】however 考查连词。前面讲述一些车中途故障，没完成比赛，而本句讲一些车完成了比赛。前后语意上是转折关系，又因为有逗号将其与句子的其他部分隔开，所以填however。

【8】its 考查形容词性物主代词。此处是说它的对手，it的形容词性物主代词是its，表示“它的”，故填its。

【9】trying 考查动词。have trouble (in) doing sth.表示“做某事有困难”，故填trying。

【10】from 考查介词。be different from是固定搭配，表示“与……不同”，故填from。

【知识归纳】

1.介词后面用动名词做宾语He left home without telling his parents.他没告诉他的父母就离开了家。

温馨提示：be busy with sth.忙于某事/be busy doing sth.忙于做某事；spend---on sth. 在某事上花费---/spend---(in) doing sth.在做某事上花费---；have difficulty(trouble/problems) with sth.在某事上有困难/ have difficulty(trouble/problems) (in) doing sth.在做某事上有困难；It’s no good/need/use/pleasure doing sth.

2.动词---名词

（1）excite的名词形式是excitement兴奋；disappoint--- disappointment；satisfy---satisfaction满意；surprise--- surprise；regret---regret后悔。

（2）to one’s excitement使某人兴奋的是---；much to one’s excitement/to one’s great excitement使某人非常兴奋的是---。
