Like always, the old man was still thankful to them and said, Whatever happens, happens for good.【答案】 an；wondered；but；politely；leg；them；to hear；join；broken；good 【解析】【分析】文章大意：從前，在一個小村里，有一個泰斯拉的老人，不管發(fā)生了什么他都認為是好事。 （1）句意：在一個村莊里有一個叫做泰斯拉的老人。man是單數(shù)，前面需要不定冠詞，old是以元音音素開始的，因此使用an，故答案是an。 （2）句意：泰斯拉的朋友想知道他的朋友是否回來。根據(jù)句首的long long ago可知句子為一般過去時，故答案是wondered。 （3）句意：但是泰斯拉總是說“不管發(fā)生了什么，都是 好事，”朋友想知道他的兒子是否會回來，泰斯拉卻說不管發(fā)生了什么都是好事，所以使用but表示轉折，故答案是but。 （4）句意：他感謝了村民們，然然后禮貌地說：“不管發(fā)生了什么，發(fā)生的都是好事?！眕olite修飾動詞said，因此使用副詞politely，故答案是politely。 （5）句意：然而，之后，太勢力的兒子摔斷了腿。摔斷的不可能是兩條腿，應該是一條腿，因此使用單數(shù)形式，故答案是leg。 （6）句意：村民在一次來看忘了他，他再一次感謝了他們。they做thank的賓語，應使用賓格人稱代詞，故答案是them。 （7）句意：一些村名聽到后感到很吃驚。聽到是吃驚的原因，應使用動詞不定式做狀語，故答案是to hear。 （8）句意：幾天之后，軍隊來到村里，強迫年輕人參軍。根據(jù)the army可知是強迫參軍，force sb. to do ，to已經給出，因此使用動詞原形，故答案是join。 （9）句意：當他們發(fā)現(xiàn)他的兒子有一條斷腿的時候，他們就把他留下了。break修飾leg，因此使用過去分詞，故答案是broken。 （10）句意：村民再次來祝她好運。good修飾luck，沒有任何比較，所以使用原級，故答案是good。 【點評】考查詞匯在篇章中的運用能力，答題時首先要跳過空格通讀文章掌握其大意，然后細讀文章，字斟句酌逐一作答，注意考慮句型、語法、搭配、語境等因素。最后通讀一遍，檢查驗證。8．語法填空 Dear Auntie Em, Great news!
