【題目】閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當?shù)膬?nèi)容（1個單詞）或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。將答案填寫在答題紙的相應位置。

There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too 【1】 (quick). So he sent them to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away in turn. The first son went 【2】 winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the【3】 (young) son in fall.

When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe【4】 they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly and bent. The second son contradicted—it was【5】 (cover) with green buds and full of promise. The third son said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful. The last son 【6】( agree) with all of them. He said it was ripe and filled with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.

The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the 【7】(tree) life. He told them that you cannot judge a tree,【8】 a person, by only one season,and that the essence of who they are—the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life—can only be judged at the end, when all the seasons are up.

If you give up when it’s winter, you will miss the hope of your spring, the 【9】 (beautiful) of your summer, fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of one season destroy the joy【10】 all the rest.

【解析】試題這篇短文通過一個父親輪番派遣他的四個兒子到遠方去尋一棵梨樹的故事，告訴人們?nèi)松�如樹，也有春夏秋冬四季之分。樹之四季皆有不同，更何況人之四季呢？所以凡事不要急于下結論。

【1】句意：他希望他的兒子學會不要太快判斷事物。judge判斷，動詞需用副詞修飾；too程度副詞“太”，可修飾副詞。根據(jù)句意語境和英文提示，可知填quickly。

【2】句意：第一個兒子冬天去了。in+季節(jié)名詞，表示“在某個季節(jié)”。根據(jù)下文in spring等的提示，可知填in。

【3】句意：最小的兒子秋天去了。定冠詞the修飾形容詞最高級；根據(jù)句意語境和英文提示，可知填youngest。

【5】句意：第二個兒子反駁說它被綠色的花蕾覆蓋著，充滿了希望。it指的是前文的tree，是動詞cover的受動者，需用被動語態(tài)。根據(jù)句意結構和英文提示，可知填covered。

【6】句意：最小的兒子不同意他們所有的意見。disagree with同意某人，固定短語；根據(jù)短文時態(tài)和英文提示，可知填disagreed。

【7】句意：然后，他對兒子們解釋說，他們都是對的，因為他們看到的只是樹的生命中的一個季節(jié)。life生命，名詞需用形容詞或所有格修飾；根據(jù)句意語境和英文提示，可知填tree’s。

【8】句意：他告訴他們，你不能僅僅用一個季節(jié)來判斷一棵樹或一個人。a tree和a person是并列關系，中間有逗號隔開，需用or連接。根據(jù)句意結構和語境，可知填or。

【9】句意：如果你在冬天放棄，你就會錯過春天的希望，夏天的美麗，秋天的滿足。定冠詞the后接名詞；根據(jù)句意語境和英文提示，可知填beauty。
