65、ve。3it解析:考查代词。根据该句中的“Before drinking from his cup, he held _ with his hands”可知,空处指代该句中的“cup”,故用it。在喝酒之前,他手举着杯子,向“我”和酒吧老板及酒吧服务员说“请”。4saying解析:考查现在分词。该句主语为he,和动词say之间为逻辑上的主谓关系;空处和谓语动词held和presented之间为伴随关系,故用现在分词作伴随状语。5but解析:考查连词。空前表示他们不像我们那样一口喝下,空后表示他们更喜欢一次喝一小口;根据上下文可知,空处前后为转折关系,故用转折连词but。6ate解析:考查动词的
66、时态。根据该段第一句中的“A famous 19th century Russian writer, Anton Chekhov, once invited a Chinese man”可知,该处叙述的是19世纪发生的事情,故用一般过去时。7coins解析:考查名词的复数形式。coin为可数名词,根据该句中的“some”可知,空处用其复数形式。此处表示此后,他递给“我”一些中国硬币以表示感激。8that解析:考查定语从句。分析该句结构可知,该句为定语从句,句中的opinion of a Chinese person为先行词,该先行词被最高级the most valuable 修饰,且在从句中作主语,故用that引导该定语从句。9seriously解析:考查副词。根据空处前的动词dealt可知,空处修饰该动词,故用副词形式。10more important解析:考查形容词的比较级。此处表示场合越重要,则礼仪就越复杂。该句使用了“the比较级.,the比较级.”,表示“越,越”。高考资源网版权所有,侵权必究!
