26、。句意:大家都为他感到遗憾。填him指代上文中丢马的人。3blessing考查词性转换。句意:也许这将会变成一件幸运的事。空前有不定冠词a,所以此处应填名词。下文的“to be a blessing”也给出了提示。4leading考查现在分词作伴随状语。句意:几个月之后,他的马跑了回来,并且还从北方带来了一匹很好的马。leading作伴随状语,与谓语动词同时发生且与句子主语是逻辑上的主谓关系。5misfortune考查名词的转化。句意:或许这很快就会变成一件不幸的事。根据语意可知,此处应填fortune的反义词。名词前缀“mis”表示“不,无”等含义。6eventually考查词性转换。句意:
27、因为他家境殷实而且养着好马,他的儿子非常喜欢骑马,最终从马上掉下来摔断了腿。此处应填副词修饰动词broke。7Why考查特殊疑问词。句意:我为什么要伤心?此处表示塞翁对别人的话不以为然。8later考查副词。句意:一年之后,北方部落开始对边境地区大肆入侵。时间段later意为“多长时间之后”。9fought考查动词的时态。句意:所有健康的男性都拿起武器与入侵者战斗,结果,边境地区的青壮年90%都死掉了。并列连词and连接的两个并列成分的形式一定是一致的。上文用的是过去时,所以此处也应用过去时。10However考查副词。句意:然而,这个人的儿子由于残疾没有参加战斗,因此这个人和他的儿子都存活了
28、下来。根据语境,此处表示转折意义,故填However。.短文改错Last week our English club held English speech contest, whose theme was “Challenge Myself”Many students take part in it, and delivered their wonderful speech.
