22、w couple a long life，everlasting love and happiness, early birth of a 10._healthy_(health)baby and so on.文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国的婚礼习俗。解析：1考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处表示自然而然的结果，主语They和动词cause之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作状语。2考查主谓一致。根据该句中的usually可知，此处表示经常发生的动作，故用一般现在时；主语The traditional Chinese marriage为第三人称单数，故谓语动词应用单数形式。3
23、考查固定搭配。in addition为固定搭配，意为“此外，除以外(还)”。4考查主语从句。分析该句结构可知，空处引导主语从句，且在从句中作主语，故用what引导该主语从句。5考查名词。根据空前的不定冠词a可知，空处应用名词形式。6考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知，空处表示目的，故用动词不定式作目的状语。7考查代词。根据语境可知，空处指那些在农村地区的人，表示复数，故用代词those。8考查副词。空处修饰动词hosted，故用副词形式。9考查冠词。空后的banquet为可数名词，表示泛指，且unique的发音以辅音音素开头，故用不定冠词a。10考查形容词。空处修饰后面的名词baby，表示“一个健康
24、的婴儿”，故用形容词healthy。2I was in trouble in overcoming my addiction to alcohol, and 1._so_was my friend Mike.We never met each other until we came 2._across_in the same treatment facility.Then we 3._were_(be)out of the treatment center for about a year and returned to our life.Finally we became inseparab

27、.I attended my friends funeral, and even though I could 10._hardly_(hard)walk, I helped carry my friend to his final resting place.Mike is still here too, in my heart and my soul.解析：1考查倒装句。根据语境可知，此处表示“我在戒酒瘾上有困难，我的朋友Mike也是如此”。“so助动词/情态动词/系动词主语”表示“也是如此”。2考查固定短语。come across“偶然遇见”。3考查一般过去时。根据and后面的并列谓语“
28、returned”可知，应用一般过去时。此题容易受到时间状语“for about a year”的影响而误填had been。4考查句型。There was a time when.“曾经有一段时间”。5考查名词的数。a couple of后要接名词的复数形式。6考查代词。句意：我们珍惜我们拥有的每次机会，以保持我们俩在正确的人生轨道上。作keep的宾语，后面还有both，所以用us。7考查现在分词。句意：和以往一样，我只得留言，满心希望他会在那天晚上晚些时候或是第二天给我回信。此处应用现在分词作伴随状语。8考查词性转换。句意：但是将近两天没有得到他的消息，我变得非常焦急。此处应用所给名词的形容词形式。9考查冠词。Mike的妻子告诉“我”Mike在“我”打电话给他的那天早晨死于一场原因不明的卡车撞车事故。此处应用不定冠词泛指“一场”，“unexplained”的读音以元音音素开头，故用an。10考查副词。“我”出席了朋友的葬礼，即使“我”(由于悲痛)几乎难以行走，“我”还是帮着把他送到安息之所。hardly“几乎不”。
