(appear) on “The Tonight Show”【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了美国著名的电视明星Johnny Carson以及他所主持的电视节目“The Tonight Show”。41twenties考查固定搭配。句意：Johnny Carson在20多岁的时候开始了电视方面的事
57、业。介词短语in ones twenties在某人二十多岁的时候；类似结构还有in ones thirties在某人三十几岁的时候。所以要填twenties。42later考查固定用法。句意：首先他在Nebraska当地的电视台工作，几年以后，搬去了加利福尼亚的洛杉矶。短语“一段时间later”意为“一段时间以后”，所以要填副词later。43that考查强调句型。句意：正是“The Tonight Show”让Johnny Carson出名三十年。强调句型的基本结构是：It is/was被强调成分that/who其他成分；本句强调的是句子主语“The Tonight Show”，句中要填强调
58、句型的连接词that。44the考查定冠词。句意：他成为了美国电视行业最受欢迎的明星。在形容词最高级前面要用定冠词the表示强调，所以填the。45was called考查时态语态。句意：他被称为“the king of late night”。本文叙述过去发生的事情，全文都以过去时为主，且主语He和call构成被动关系，要用过去时的被动语态，所以要填was called。46felt考查时态。句意：美国的评论家说全美国人都喜欢他，都感觉他们了解他。本文叙述过去发生的事情，全文都以过去时为主，句中felt与liked是并列谓语，都使用一般过去时，所以要填felt。47seriously考查固定
59、短语。句意：他并没有把名誉当成重要的事情。动词短语take sth.seriously认真/严肃地对待某事，其中副词seriously作状语修饰动词短语take sth.，所以要填副词seriously。48that/which考查定语从句。句意：观众嘲笑在节目开头他编的笑话。定语从句的先行词是his jokes，关系代词that/which指代先行词，引导定语从句并作动词made的宾语。所以要填关系代词that/which。49harder考查比较级。句意：有时候他们对于失败的笑话笑得更加厉害。本句中把他编的失败的笑话和成功的笑话进行比较，要用比较级形式，所以要填harder。50appea
60、ring考查非谓语。句意：很多喜剧明星和歌手出现在“The Tonight Show”之后都很成功。介词后面要接名词或动名词作宾语，本句after是介词，后面也要接名词或动名词。所以要填appearing。.短文改错(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)Li Hua and I were neighbours and we went to same school.We always went to school together.We were good friend and had a great deal to share with every day.However，one day，Li
