25、作状语。 3because考查名词。此处表原因,故用because。4playing介词of后应用ving,所以填playing。5an考查冠词。take an interest in.对感兴趣。6experts考查名词。此处指专家(experts)。7interested考查形容词。be interested in 对感兴趣。8boring此处boring作find的宾语补足语。9either由I cant help it,可知,此处表示也不(either)。10must/may考查情态动词。广东省语法填空阅读下面短文,按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括
26、号中词语的正确形式填空。A London-based translation firm is offering parents-to-be the chance to check the meaning of prospective baby names in other languages to avoid causing their offspring future _1_ (embarrass)Celebrity couple Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes might have thought twice about naming _2_ daughter Su

30、Lord frowns in anger” in the Aztec language of Nahuatl.However, some unusual name choices of celebrities babies are beyond easy translation, the company admits,_10_ as Jermajesty the name of Michael Jackson s brother Jermaines son.1解析考查词性转换。空格前为形容词修饰语,而且此处是cause sb.sth.的结构,因此断定此处需要填名词,embarrass的名词形式
31、为embarrassment。答案embarrassment2解析结合语境考查形容词性物主代词。名词前设空答案首先考虑限定词,因为上文提到“Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes”,所以用their,意为“他们的女儿”。此处表示“名人夫妇Tom Cruise和Katie Holmes要是知道Suri这个名字在其他语言里的意义的话,他们也许会三思后再起名字了”。答案their3解析结合语境考查动词的时态。由上文“might have thought”可知,条件句中应用“had过去分词”。答案had known4解析结合语境考查介词。此处for表示交换,此处表示公司给你提供名字方面
32、的调查服务是要收取一定的服务费的。答案For5解析结合语境考查现在分词作伴随状语。文章中的“_5_(check)their meaning in 100 languages”作伴随状语;设空处的动词与主句的主语是逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用check的现在分词形式。答案checking6解析结合语境考查代词的用法。空格位于宾语从句的谓语动词之前,因此此处需要能作主语的名词或代词。上文刚出现过the firm,所以此处用it来代替它。答案it7解析考查which引导的非限制性定语从句。此处which引导的定语从句是修饰Kai Rooney这个名字的,which在定语从句中作主语。答案which8解析
33、结合语境考查连词。此处意为“尽管音乐家Gwen Stefani和Gavin Rossdale也许知道Zuma在阿拉伯语中的意思是和平,但是他们也许不知道”。前后两个分句之间有逻辑上的让步关系,故此处应填While/Although/Though。答案While/Although/Though9解析结合语境考查“连词分词”型省略句。连词后设空且给出动词提示词,这时要首先考虑动词和句子主语的关系,若是主谓关系就用现在分词,此处主语和choose之间就是主谓关系。答案choosing10解析结合语境考查such as的用法。此处such as用于列举事物。句意:然而有些名人的孩子的名字不好翻译,例如乔丹的弟弟的儿子的名字Jermajesty就不好翻译。答案such
