【文章大意】這是一篇說明文。雖然很多人的注意力都集中在包的外部——它的設計、品牌,以及不可避免的價格標簽,但大多數(shù)人往往忽略了包包隱藏的豐富而復雜的內(nèi)部。文章介紹了時尚女性包袋中物品的變化,表示無論包包看上去多么普通,它都能傳達出主人的一些信息。所以你的包能傳達的是你的地位,或你的信仰。1.【解析】toignore。考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)短語tendtodosth.表示“傾向于,往往會”。故填toignore。2.【解析】stepped?？疾閯釉~時態(tài)。根據(jù)后文inthe1740s可知此處描述過去發(fā)生的事情,應用一般過去時。故填stepped。3.【解析】belongings。考查名詞。根據(jù)上文herprivate可知應填名詞belonging,且belonging為可數(shù)名詞,前面沒有冠詞,表示“所有物”應用復數(shù)形式。故填belongings。4.【解析】what。考查連接詞。此處為表語從句,從句中缺少賓語,指代物品應用what引導。故填what。5.【解析】attached?？疾榉侵^語動詞。分析句子結構可知attach在句中應用非謂語動詞形式,與邏輯主語purses構成被動關系,故用過去分詞。故填attached。6.【解析】remarkably。考查副詞。修飾后文形容詞unchanged應用副詞remarkably,表示“明顯地”。故填remarkably。7.【解析】a?？疾楣谠~。note為可數(shù)名詞,此處表示泛指應用不定冠詞,且$5為輔音音素開頭的單詞。故填a。8.【解析】determined/shoulddetermine?？疾樘摂M語氣。在It’s(high)timethat后的句子中要用虛擬語氣,用一般過去時,也可用“should+動詞原形”。故填determined/shoulddetermine。9.【解析】it。考查代詞。句意:更令人驚訝的是,無論包包看上去多么普通,它都能傳達出主人的一些信息。此處指代上文中的thebag,應用代詞it。故填it。10.【解析】is?？疾橹髦^一致。本句陳述客觀事實用一般現(xiàn)在時,且主語為whatyourbagcanconvey,故謂語動詞應用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。故填is?！军c睛】當分詞作狀語的時候,如果構成分詞的動詞與句子的主語構成主動關系,就使用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語;當二者構成被動關系,使用過去分詞作狀語。如果分詞的動作發(fā)生在謂語動詞之前,就使用分詞的完成式。如果分詞與句子的主語沒有關系,可以使用狀語從句或者獨立主格結構。如第5小題,分析句子結構可知attach在句中應用非謂語動詞形式,與邏輯主語purses構成被動關系,故用過去分詞。故填attached。Ⅳ.讀后續(xù)寫(2021·衢州模擬)閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進行續(xù)寫,使之構成一個完整的故事。RescueinaBottle
