Answer 1

【答案】

【1】which

【2】whoever

【3】Hearing

【4】They

【5】when

【6】a

【7】with

【8】surprised

【9】sit

【10】better

【解析】

【1】which 這里構(gòu)造非限制性定語從句，用which指代上文的The watch。句意：這塊手表是他爸爸給他的禮物，對他很重要。

【2】whoever考查賓語從句，用whoever指代人，句意：他承諾給找到手表的人一個很多的獎勵。

【3】Hearing 句意：聽到這個消息，孩子們立刻沖到谷倉里去找手表。這里用現(xiàn)在分詞做狀語，故Hearing。

【4】They考查代詞。句意：他們到處找，但是找不到被埋在谷物里的手表。根據(jù)句意這里用代詞they指代上文的孩子們（the children）。

【5】when考查固定搭配。句意：這個農(nóng)民正要放棄時一個小男孩走向他。be about to…when正要…這時。故這里填when。

【6】a考查冠詞。句意：這個農(nóng)民正要放棄時一個小男孩走向他，要求再給他一次機(jī)會。a second再一個，又一個。

【7】with考查獨立結(jié)構(gòu)。句意：過了一會，小男孩走出來手里拿著手表。這里考查with的獨立結(jié)構(gòu)。

【8】surprised考查形容詞。句意：這個農(nóng)民，驚訝但是很開心，問這個男孩是怎么找到的…。此題考查和happy并列的形容詞，故用surprised。

【9】sit句意：男孩回答說：”我只是靜靜地坐在那里聽手表發(fā)出的聲音“。本題考查固定結(jié)構(gòu)do nothing but do什么都不做，但做。

【10】better本題考查比較級。句意：這顯示了有時候平靜的心態(tài)起更大的作用。根據(jù)空后的than可知這里用比較級better。
