33、on the day when Garrett and Graham called him into the hall, he added, “That is the best day of my entire life, basically.”语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。Michael Todd家里穷,没有钱买新衣服,总是穿着黑色的裤子和蓝色的衬衫上学,遭到了班上一些同学的嘲笑。其中两位同学后来觉得他们这样做伤害了Michael Todd,便诚恳地向他道歉,并将自己的一些衣物送给了他。Michael Todd很震惊,也很高兴,和他们成了朋友。解析:1考查动词的时态。结合该句内容可知,其他孩子
34、注意到Michael Todd正穿着同一件黑裤子和蓝衬衫,故可以用过去进行时;或者根据上句可知,Michael Todd总是穿着同样的衣服,讲述的是过去的事情,所以此处也可用一般过去时。故填was wearing/wore。2考查冠词。该处泛指一位高一学生,又freshman的发音以辅音音素开头。故填不定冠词a。3考查连词。上句说高一新生Michael Todd成为其他孩子嘲笑和言语攻击的对象;该句说Michael Todd对此几乎什么都不能做。由此可知,空处前后为转折关系。故填But/Yet。4考查固定搭配。over time为固定搭配,表示“随着时间的推移”,符合语境。故填over。5考查
35、非谓语动词。根据该句中的“by the larger boys”可知,该处用被动形式;介词后接名词、代词或动名词等,此处作about的宾语,空处应用动名词形式。故填being called。6考查名词。冠词后接名词,根据冠词an可知,空处用名词形式。makean apology (to sb.) for (doing) sth.为固定用法,表示“因(做)某事(向某人)道歉”。故填apology。7考查代词。短语make sth. up此意为“弥补”。根据语境可知,空处代指该句中的“laughing at you”,作make的宾语。故填代词it。8考查定语从句。分析该句结构可知,空处引导非限制
36、性定语从句,先行词为表示物的a large bag,关系词作介词inside的宾语。故填which引导该定语从句。9考查副词。副词修饰形容词,空处修饰形容词shocked。故填副词形式Completely。10考查非谓语动词。短语reflect on意思为“反思;回想”。分析该句结构和语境可知,主语he和动词reflect之间为逻辑上的主谓关系。故填现在分词形式Reflecting。.应用文写作(2021山东聊城二模)假定你是高中生李华,你的美国朋友Jim即将升入高中,对高中学习感到忧虑,想让你给他一些学习建议。请你给他写一封电子邮件,内容包括:1与老师交流,征求老师的意见;2上课积极参与讨论
