4句意:切斯基先生希望截止至2028年,將其房屋租賃人數(shù)增加至10億多。

5句意:它在希望通過(guò)租賃房屋來(lái)獲取輕松收入的業(yè)主以及尋找價(jià)格適宜且更有家庭氣息的游客之間扮演房屋經(jīng)紀(jì)人的角色。

7句意:這包括像蒙古包這樣的東西——一種大的圓形帳篷,在蒙古很多人把它當(dāng)作家。

根據(jù)空格上文“This includes things like yurts” 這包括像蒙古包這樣的東西,根據(jù)常識(shí),蒙古人把蒙古包當(dāng)作家,由此推斷空格的詞義是指;根據(jù)be動(dòng)詞的形式是are,判斷名詞是復(fù)數(shù)形式;由首字母提示,home 意為,故填homes 。

根據(jù)首字母提示完成短文,解答前要先跳空閱讀全文,猜測(cè)大意;再根據(jù)上下文聯(lián)系猜測(cè)空格所缺的信息;最后根據(jù)首字母提示確定單詞。本篇的題12根據(jù)上文聯(lián)系推斷詞義;題34、6根據(jù)句子的文字表層意思推斷詞義;題57根據(jù)常識(shí)推斷詞義;
