24、ends可知,此处应用tale的复数形式与legends构成并列关系。5.a考查冠词。空处表示泛指,且mythical的发音以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。6.especially考查副词。年兽会在新年的第一天出现并吞食牲畜、作物,甚至村民,尤其是儿童。根据语境可知此处用副词作状语,表示“尤其”。7.themselves考查代词。为了保护自己,村民们每年年初都会把食物放在家门口。根据语境可知此处应用反身代词themselves。8.ate考查时态。人们相信,在吃了他们准备好的食物之后,它就不会再攻击人们了。根据语境及主句的时态可知,此处用一般过去时。9.of考查介词。村民们后来明白了,年兽害怕红色。be afraid of .“害怕”,为固定搭配。10.to frighten考查非谓语动词。人们也用鞭炮来吓跑年兽。此处应用动词不定式表示目的。
