34、中国食物的热爱和中国烹饪的由来。 1from解析: 句意为: 我们的办公室离唐人街不远be far from意为“离远”, 符合句意。 故填from。 2noticed解析: 根据上下文的时态可知, 此处应用一般过去时。 故填noticed。 3it解析: 句意为: 当我对这种食物了解得更多时, 我开始明白为什么这种食物会如此特别。 空格处与前一分句中的“the food”为同一事物, 为了避免重复, 故用代词“it”指代“the food”。 故填it。 4an解析: 句意为: 多年以前, 中国发生了一次能源危机空格处修饰“energy crisis”, 表泛指, crisis在该句中为可数
35、名词单数, 且“energy”的读音以元音音素开头, 因此填不定冠词an。 5management解析: 根据空格前的形容词poor及空格后的介词of可知, 空格处应为名词。 故填management。 6valuable解析: 空格后是名词wood, 因此应用所给词的形容词形式修饰wood。 故填valuable。 7cooking解析: 介词in后用名词、 代词或动名词。 cook作名词时意为“厨师”, 不合句意, 因此要用其动名词形式cooking, 意为“烹饪”。 句意为: 为了在烹饪时能节省能源, 他们不得不少用木头。 故填cooking。 8faster解析: “the food
36、cooked_”与and后的“they saved more fuel”是并列关系, 故此处也应用副词fast的比较级faster。 句意为: 那样, 食物就煮得快些, 他们就能节省更多的燃料。 故填faster。 9prepared解析: 分析句子结构可知, 句子的谓语动词是kept, 故prepare是非谓语动词。 prepare与主语The food之间是逻辑上的动宾关系, 因此用其过去分词形式。 故填prepared。 10that解析: 根据句中的its可先假定本句为强调句, 因此去掉its和空格后, 剩余部分为“this flavor attracts people from other countries to the art of Chinese cooking”。 此句成分和意义都完整。 由此可知, 本句是一个强调句, 被强调部分为主语“this flavor”。 强调句型的基本结构为“It is/was被强调部分that/who其他”,只有强调主语且主语为人时用who,其他情况用that。 故填that。 句意为: 正是这种味道吸引了其他国家的人来品味中国饮食文化。
