33、the same as wasting a part of their life. Remember, dont put off which you can do today until tomorrow.答案:1第一句:usualusually考查副词。修饰形容词limited用副词,所以用usually。2第二句:HoweverTherefore考查副词。根据语境可知,此处前后句之间是因果关系,而非转折关系,所以用Therefore。3第二句:valuablevalue考查名词。be ofn.beadj.为固定用法,故用value。4第三句:yourour考查代词。与该句中的We保持人称一
34、致,故用our。5第四句:mustntmust考查情态动词。此处表示我们必须要努力学习,故用must。6第四句:去掉for考查动词。serve意为“服务”时,是及物动词,不需要加介词,故去掉for。7第五句:pity前加a考查冠词。It is a pity that . “遗憾的是”为固定句式。故pity前面应加a。8第五句:didntdont考查动词的时态。本文的基本时态为一般现在时,故此处用dont。9第六句:smokesmoking考查动名词。spend time doing sth.为固定用法,意为“花时间做某事”,故用smoking,与drinking并列。10第八句:whichwhat考查宾语从句的连接词。句意:记住,不要把今天能做的事情拖延到明天。连接词在宾语从句中作do的宾语,表示“的事物”,故用what。
