65、fter dinner,the guests often stay with the host for another two or three hours.Then all of them enjoy 10._(them).【文章大意】本文主要讲述了在美国被美国家庭邀请吃饭的过程。1.【解析】in。句意:主人可能会打电话给你或亲自问你。句中的in person为固定搭配,意为“亲自”,因此本空填in。2.【解析】invitation。句意:或者他们可能在邮件中给你发一个书面邀请函。本空被形容词written修饰,所以要用invite的名词形式 invitation。3.【解析】served。
66、本句中的serve在句中修饰名词meal,即serve a meal(上菜,上饭),二者是被动关系。表被动,要用过去分词作定语,因此用served。4.【解析】are seated。句意:如果客人就座了,主人可以为客人提供食物。sb.be seated 为固定用法,意为“某人就座”,主句用一般将来时或情态动词,if条件状语从句要用一般现在时。从句的主语是the guests,所以填are seated。5.【解析】that。句意:如果客人在餐桌旁就座,主人就可以提供食物,或者传递食物,以便让每个人自便。so that为固定搭配,意为“以便,结果,以致”。因此本空填that。6.【解析】usua
67、lly。本空用于修饰动词served,修饰动词要用副词形式,因此要用usual的副词形式usually。7.【解析】an。half an hour为“半小时”。hour的读音是以元音音素开头的,所以要用不定冠词an。8.【解析】or。句意:大多数美国人在家里没有女佣或其他帮手。表示否定句中的并列关系往往用not.or,因此本空填or。9.【解析】preparing。句意:丈夫和妻子及其子女通常分担准备饭菜和饭后清理的责任。本空是作介词of 的宾语,且和and后的cleaning并列,所以要用动词的-ing形式,故填preparing。10.【解析】themselves。句意:晚餐后,客人通常会在主人家再待上两到三个小时。所有的人都玩得开心。enjoy oneself为固定搭配,意为“玩得开心”。本句的主语为all of them,所以要填themselves。
