32、.一天晚上,我坐在公园的凳子上注视着一个小男孩在草地上自由地乱跑。男孩经常摔倒,站起来根本没有回头看妈妈,就像没有事情发生一样继续跑。当孩子摔倒时,他并没有把这当成是一件失败的事情,而是把摔倒当成一个学习的经历。他一次又一次尝试,直到他成功,随着每一次尝试,他看起来是那么的自信和自然。我从那次经历中学到了很多,并成功地把那次经历带进了我生活的许多方面。1running解析:考查非谓语动词。固定结构watch sb. doing sth.注视着某人做某事;动词run和谓语动词watch同时发生,所以使用现在分词running的形式。句意:小男孩在草地上自由地乱跑。故填running。2get解析
33、:考查并列结构。此处get和前面的fall以及后面的run是并列成分,时态要保持一致,故用动词原形。句意:男孩经常摔倒,又站了起来。故填get。3at解析:考查固定搭配。look 是不及物动词,后面跟宾语时要接介词at,look at看着。句意:没有回头看他的妈妈。故填at。4it解析:考查代词。it指代上文提到的摔倒这件事情。句意:相反,他们把摔倒当成一个学习的经历。故填it。5was_touched解析:考查动词的时态和语态。本文讲述的是过去发生的事,故用一般过去式;根据句意可知本句使用被动语态。句意:我被男孩坚强的意志和奔跑的方式感动了。故填was touched。6freely解析:考
34、查副词。此处用副词作状语修饰前面的动词run。句意:他只想自由奔跑。故填freely。7well解析:考查副词。此处用副词作状语修饰前面的动词do。句意:他只想自由奔跑,并尽可能地去做好。故填well。8fell解析:考查动词的时态。此处讲述过去发生的事情,要用一般过去式。句意:每次他跌倒。故填fell。9whether解析:考查连词。此处用whether与后面的or not构成“whether.or not”结构,意为“是否”。句意:或者担心是否有人在看。故填whether。10parts解析:考查名词。part是可数名词,前面有many修饰,故用复数形式parts。句意:我从那次经历中学到
35、了很多,并成功地把那次经历带进了我生活的许多方面。故填parts。.短文改错(成都树德中学高三调研)Last term, a newspaper reading course was start by our English teacher.
