29、rmance？”“My dear，” said the teacher, “youll _10_ be better than you were tonight.”1_2._3._4._5_6._7._8._9_10._答案与解析本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Alice想成为一名歌手，但老师认为她没有天赋。她没有放弃，后来开演唱会并邀请以前的老师，老师也不想伤害Alice的感情，音乐会后既称赞了她，又没有撒谎。1important考查形容词。这里是形容词的最高级，故填important。2truth考查固定用法。to tell you the truth是固定用法，意思是“说实话”。故填trut
30、h。3but考查并列连词。此处表示转折关系，故用but。4louder考查比较级。这里表示“老实说，她唱歌没有变得更好，只是声音更高了”。所以填louder。5gave考查动词时态。这里表示“她的老师最终放弃了”。根据句意可知此空和后面的stopped是并列关系，所以用一般过去时态，故填gave。6what考查连接词。老师非常担心表演后说什么。what作介词about的宾语，并作say的逻辑宾语，故填what。7would考查动词时态。这里含有一个省略了that的宾语从句，主句用的是一般过去时，从句要使用相应的过去时态，根据句意可知用过去将来时态，故填would。8either考查副词。句意：她也不想伤害Alice的感情。在否定句中用either表示“也”，故填either。9my考查形容词性物主代词。句意：您认为我的演出怎么样？故填my。10never考查副词。你今晚的表现是最好的，也表明了以后Alice也不会变得更好。否定词never和比较级连用，表示最高级的含义。故填never。
