三：文意梳理

我們大家都有過事事不順心的日子。一天開始時，可能還不錯，但突然間似乎一切都

失去了控制。情況經(jīng)常是這樣的，許許多多的事情都偏偏趕在同一時刻出問題，好像是一件

無關(guān)緊要的小事引起了一連串的連鎖反應。假設(shè)你在做飯，同時又在照看孩子。這時電話鈴

響了，它預示著一連串意想不到的災難的來臨。就在你接電話時，孩子把桌布從桌子上扯了

下來，將家中最好的陶瓷餐具半數(shù)摔碎，同時也弄傷了他自己。你急急忙忙掛上電話，趕去

照看孩子和餐具。這時，飯又燒糊了。好像這一切還不足以使你急得掉淚，你的丈夫接著回

來了，事先沒打招呼就帶來3個客人吃飯。

就像許多人最近在悉尼郊區(qū)帕拉馬塔所發(fā)現(xiàn)的那樣，有時亂子會鬧得很大。一天傍晚交

通最擁擠時，一輛汽車撞上前面一輛汽車，兩個司機爭吵起來。緊跟其后的一輛車上的司機

碰巧是個初學者，她一驚之下突然把車停了下來。她這一停使得跟在后頭的司機也來了個急

剎車。司機的妻子正坐在他身邊，手里托著塊大蛋糕。她往前一沖，蛋糕從擋風玻璃飛了出

去掉在馬路上。此時，一輛卡車正好從后邊開到那輛汽車邊上，司機看見一塊蛋糕從天而降，

緊急剎車?？ㄜ嚿涎b著空啤酒瓶，成百只瓶子順勢從卡車后面滑出車外落在馬路上。這又引

起了一場唇槍舌劍的爭吵。與此同時，后面的車輛排成了長龍，警察花了將近一個小時才使

車輛又開起來。在這段時間里，卡車司機不得不清掃那幾百只破瓶子。只有兩只野狗從這一

片混亂中得到了好處，它們貪婪地吃掉了剩下的蛋糕。這就是事事不順心的那么一天！

參考答案：

1.so考查副詞。so...that...為固定搭配,意為“如此……以至于……”。

2.toget考查非謂語動詞。此處考查固定句型ittakessometimetodosth.0

3.of考查介詞。apackof為固定短語，意為“一群”。

4.who考查定語從句。先行詞masters指人,并且引導詞在從句中做主語。因此用關(guān)系

代詞whoo

5.recommended考查動詞的時態(tài)。此句為and連接的并列句，前后時態(tài)一，致,故用一般

過去時態(tài)。

6.competition考查名詞。所填的詞由冠詞an修飾，故用compete的名詞形式。

7.traditional考查形容詞?？崭窈鬄槊~stories,應用形容詞來修飾。

8.hugely考查副詞。所填的詞修飾形容詞popular,故用副詞形式。

9.wereinvited考查動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。句中時間狀語為Onthelastdayofour

week-longstay,又因為主語we與所給動詞invite之間為被動關(guān)系，故用一般過去時態(tài)的被

動形式。

10.listening考查非謂語動詞。分析句子成分可知，此處做伴隨狀語；另外，所填的詞

與下文的meeting為并列關(guān)系,故用動詞-力7g形式。

古玩店對許多人來說有一種特殊的魅力。高檔一點的古玩店為了防塵，把文物漂亮地陳

列在玻璃柜子里，那里往往令人望而卻步。而對不太裝腔作勢的古玩店，無論是誰都不用壯

著膽子才敢往里進。人們還常常有希望在發(fā)霉、陰暗、雜亂無章、迷宮般的店堂里，從雜亂

地擺放在地面上的、一堆堆各式各樣的破爛貨里找到一件稀世珍品。

無論是誰都不會一下子就發(fā)現(xiàn)一件珍品。一個到處找便宜貨買的人必須具有耐心，而且

最重要的是看到珍品時要有鑒別珍品的能力。要做到這一點，他至少要像古董商一樣在行。

他必須像一個專心致志進行探索的科學家那樣抱有這樣的希望，即終有一天，他的努力會取

得豐碩的成果。

我的老朋友弗蘭克?哈利戴正是這樣一個人。他多次向我詳細講他如何只花50英鎊便

買到一位名家的杰作。一個星期六的上午，弗蘭克去了我家附近的一家古玩店。由于他從未

去過那兒，結(jié)果他發(fā)現(xiàn)了許多有趣的東西。上午很快過去了，弗蘭克正準備離去，突然看見

地板上放著一只體積很大的貨箱。古董商告訴他那只貨箱剛到不久，但他嫌麻煩不想把它打

開。經(jīng)弗蘭克懇求，古堇商才勉強把貨箱撬開了。箱內(nèi)東西令人失望。除了一柄式樣別致、

雕有花紋的匕首外，貨箱內(nèi)裝滿了陶器，而且大部分都已破碎。弗蘭克輕輕地把陶器拿出箱

子，突然發(fā)現(xiàn)在箱底有一幅微型畫，畫面構(gòu)圖與線條使他想起了一幅他所熟悉的意大利畫，

于是他決定將畫買下來。古董商漫不經(jīng)心看了一眼那幅畫，告訴弗蘭克那畫值50英鎊。弗

蘭克幾乎無法掩飾自己興奮的心情，因為他明白自己發(fā)現(xiàn)了一件珍品。那幅不大的畫原來是

柯勒喬的一幅未被發(fā)現(xiàn)的杰作，價值幾十萬英鎊。

參考答案：

1.longer考查比較等級。根據(jù)后面的than可知，所填的詞要用比較級。

2.tosee考查非謂語動詞。分析句子成分可知,所填的詞作目的狀語,所以用動詞不定

式。

3.dying考查非謂語動詞。of是介詞，后接動詞時要用動詞-ing形式。

4.is考查時態(tài)和主謂一致。句子的主語是it,時態(tài)是一般現(xiàn)在時,所以填is。

5.than考查連詞。根據(jù)前面的moreeffective可知，句子是比較結(jié)構(gòu),所以填than。

6.that/which考查定語從句。先行詞是astudy,關(guān)系詞在定語從句中作主語,所以填

that/whicho

7.causes考查名詞復數(shù)。cause是可數(shù)名詞，根據(jù)前面的修飾語all可知，該名詞要用

復數(shù)形式。

8.strengthen考查非謂語動詞。空格前的to是動詞不定式的符號,所以此處用動詞原

形。

9.energetic考查形容詞。根據(jù)前面的is可知,所填的詞要用形容詞形式。

10.it/running考查代詞。根據(jù)句意可知,所填的詞代替上文提到的running,所以用it。

也可以直接填runningo

未來的歷史學家在寫我們這一段歷史的時候會別具一格。對于逐漸積累起來的龐大材

料，他們幾乎不知道選取哪些好，而且，也不必完全依賴文字材料電影、錄像、光盤和光

盤驅(qū)動器只是能為他們提供令人眼花繚亂的大量信息的幾種手段。他們能夠身臨其境般地觀

看我們做事，傾聽我們講話。但是，歷史學家企圖重現(xiàn)遙遠的過去可是一項艱巨的任務，他

們必須根據(jù)現(xiàn)有的不充分的線索進行推理。即使看起來微不足道的遺物，也可能揭示人類早

期歷史的一些有趣的內(nèi)容。

歷史學家迄今認為日歷是隨農(nóng)業(yè)的問世而出現(xiàn)的，因為當時人們面臨著了解四季的實際

需要，但近期科學研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，好像這種假設(shè)是不正確的。

長期以來，歷史學家一直對雕刻在墻壁上、骨頭上、古代長毛象的象牙上的點、線和形

形色色的符號感到困惑不解。這些痕跡是游牧人留下的，他們生活在從公元前約35,000

年到公元前10,000年的冰川期的末期，以狩獵、捕魚為生。歷史學家通過把世界各地留下

的這種痕跡放在一起研究，終于弄懂了這種費解的代碼。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)代碼與晝夜更迭和月亮圓

缺有關(guān)，事實上是一種最原始的日歷。大家早就知道，畫在墻上的狩獵圖景并不是單純的藝

術(shù)表現(xiàn)形式，它們有著一定的含義，因為它們已接近古代人的文字形式。有時，這種圖畫與

墻壁上的刻痕共存，它們之間可能有一定的聯(lián)系?？磥砣祟愒缇椭铝τ谔剿魉募咀冞w了，比

1.crowds考查名詞。根據(jù)前面的terrible可知,這里用名詞crowd的復數(shù)形式,表示

“人群”。

2.from考查介詞。根據(jù)前面的to可知I,這里填from。toandfromwork“上下班”。

3.laying考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)前面的digging和后面的building可知，這里用

laying與之保持一致，作謂語動詞included的賓語。

4.the考查冠詞。這里特指地鐵的頂部。意思是在地鐵的頂部建了一個堅固的頂棚。

5.wereused考查時態(tài)和語態(tài)。use和steamengines之間為動賓關(guān)系，文章敘述的是

1863年的事情，因此用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)。

6.fairly考查副詞。unpleasant是形容詞，這里用副詞fairly修飾，意思是“相當不

舒服”。

7.it考查代詞。it在這里指代前面提到的名詞therailway。

8.managed考查動詞時態(tài)。根據(jù)上文及后面的became可知，這里用過去時。

9.introduction考查名詞。根據(jù)前面的the以及后面的of可知，這里要填名

詞，introduce的名詞形式是introduction。

10.successful考查形容詞。根據(jù)前面的themost可知，這里是形容詞的最高

級，success是名詞，其形容詞是successfulo
