33、在我到达那里之前,我的油箱已经空了。表示在之前用before,所以填before。4to 考查固定短语。句意:我应该向谁求助呢?turn to“求助于”,是固定短语,填to。5movies考查名词。句意:然后我想起了在好莱坞电影中看到过的场景。根据scenes可判断出“好莱坞电影”是复数意义,所以填movies。6an 考查冠词。句意:司机是一位老人。泛指“一位老人”,且old的首字母是元音音素,所以填an。7knowing考查非谓语动词。句意:在了解我的问题后,他说他可以帮助我。know与其逻辑主语he之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词作时间状语,填knowing。8nearest 考查最高级。句意:他把我带到了最近的加油站。表示“最近的加油站”,用最高级,填nearest。9was helped考查被动语态。句意:因此,我努力再搭一次便车并且再次被帮助。I与help之间是被动关系,用被动语态,所以填was helped。10greatly 考查副词。句意:我被深深地感动了。修饰动词moved,用副词,所以填greatly。
