(教材课文原文)
Diary of a Space Zucchini July 1
Today Gardener and his crew will depart in their seed pod; the replacement crew is ready to
in their place. He is wearing his space suit undergarments. Not too stylish but . He gave all of us an extra long smell. His nose twitched with the slightest tickle from the leaf hairs on little Zuc. He said that what will be is for the best. It has been a wonderful journey; one chapter is closing, another is . He had tears in his eyes, not just a small drop at the corners but a pool that was making him . He reached up and the light. In the frontier you should not be afraid of the dark.反馈
解析:
1. Carry away意为“大为激动,忘形”, carry on表示“开展,从事”,carry through表示“达到,完成”。该句是说今日园丁和其它宇航员将离开,替代的宇航员也准备就位开展工作。比较这几个词组的意思,选项B最合适。
2. Functional表示“功能性的,实用的”,nonfunctional表示“无功能的”,conjunctional表示“连结的,连接词的”。前句提到,园丁穿着太空服,不太时髦但…,三个词中,只有A符合题意。
3. 三个选项都说得通,但为了与上句one chapter is closing相对应,选项C无疑是最恰当的答案。
4. 要表达“让某人做某事”,应用make + 宾语+ 不带to 的不定式,即make sb do sth, 但当改成被动时,需要加to, 即be made to do sth. 并没有make sb doing sth这种说法,所以答案是C。
5. Turn up表示“(情况)突然好转;(机会)突然出现”,turn out表示“关掉,熄灭(电灯、煤气等) ”,turn down表示“拒绝(提议或请求)”。根据上下文,宇航员们准备离开,后文又提到在太空不应惧怕黑暗,因此该空应该选择B。
