【解析】
試題分析:本文敘述了在18世紀的美國人開始誤認為西紅柿是有毒的食物。為了改變人們的這種想法,美國總統(tǒng)Thomas Jefferson在一次宴會上,讓廚師做了西紅柿湯來招待客人,結果客人喝了之后都喜歡上西紅柿,在那之后越來越多的美國人喜歡吃西紅柿了。
1.句意:在18世紀美國人種植西紅柿。根據In the 18th century 可知句子的謂語動詞應該用過去式,故用grew。
2.句意:但是他們從不吃它們。But后的敘述的內容還是指的是18世紀的事情,所以應該用過去式,故用ate。
3.3】句意:他們認為西紅柿是有危險的食物。根據People called them poisonous (有毒的) apples. 可知這里指危險的,故用dangerous。
4.4】句意:他知道巴黎人喜歡好味道的西紅柿。這里形容詞后應該用名詞taste“味道”。
5.5】句意:他想要人們喜歡西紅柿,但是他怎樣讓人們改變他們的想法呢?根據句意這里應該用how表示方式。
6.6】句意:他告訴他的廚師去做西紅柿湯。根據上文可知這是過去的事情,所以應該用過去式。短語tell sb to do sth告訴某人某事,故用told。
7.7】句意:在桌上有許多西紅柿湯。這里plenty of修飾不可數名詞,故用plenty。
8.8】句意:當他發(fā)現所有的人都喜歡西紅柿湯的時候他一點沒有感到吃驚。這里表示人感到吃驚的用surprised。
9.9】句意:他從沒有告訴他們他們吃的是有毒的蘋果。根據句意這里用否定副詞never。
10.10】句意:在那之后不久越來越多的美國人喜歡西紅柿了。這里指參加宴會的人吃了西紅柿之后,故用after。
