【題目】In 1914, Thomas Edison, at the age of 67, lost his factory, 【1】 was worth a few million dollars, to fire. It had very little insurance. No longer a young man, Edison watched his lifetime effort 【2】 (go) up in smoke and said, "There is great value in disasters. All our mistakes are burnt up. Thank God we can start anew." In spite of disasters, three weeks later, 【3】 invented the phonograph. What 【4】 attitude!

Below are more examples of the 【5】 (fail) of successful people: Thomas Edison failed 【6】 (approximate) 10, 000 times while he 【7】 (work) on the light bulb.

Henry Ford fired Lee Iacocca at the age of 54. Young Beethoven 【8】 (tell) that he had no talent for music, 【9】 he gave some of the best music to the world.

Setbacks are inevitable in life. A setback can act as a driving force and also teach us humility. In grief you will find courage and faith 【10】 (overcome) the setback.

【答案】

【1】which

【2】go

【3】he

【4】an

【5】failures

【6】approximately

【7】was working

【8】was told

【9】but

【10】to overcome

【解析】本文介紹了幾個(gè)面對(duì)挫折重新站起來(lái)的例子。例如，托馬斯愛(ài)迪生在自己的工廠(chǎng)化為灰燼后，發(fā)明了留聲機(jī)。挫折能使你重新站起來(lái)，也教會(huì)你如何面對(duì)困難。

【1】his factory是先行詞，指物，故用which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句，對(duì)前面的先行詞factory進(jìn)行補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明。

【2】一些感觀動(dòng)詞像watch,see,hear等后面都可接動(dòng)詞的兩種形式：接-ing表示看到或聽(tīng)到動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行；接do，也就是不帶to的動(dòng)詞不定式，表示看到或聽(tīng)到動(dòng)作的全過(guò)程。watch his lifetime effort go up in smoke.表示看到這個(gè)動(dòng)作的全過(guò)程，已經(jīng)結(jié)束了。故填動(dòng)詞原形go。

【3】句意：三天后他發(fā)明了留聲機(jī)。填he作句子主語(yǔ)，指代Edison。

【4】what an attitude!是一個(gè)感嘆句，attitude作“態(tài)度”講時(shí)，是個(gè)可數(shù)名詞，attitude以元音音素開(kāi)頭，故填an。

【5】句意：下面是成功人失敗的更多的例子。failure是可數(shù)名詞，這里表示不只一次的失敗，故要用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填failures。

【6】副詞修飾動(dòng)詞，這空要填一個(gè)副詞，approximate是形容詞，“大約”，它的副詞形式是approximately。故填approximately。

【7】句意：當(dāng)愛(ài)迪生在致力于發(fā)明電燈泡的過(guò)程中失敗過(guò)1000多次。強(qiáng)調(diào)當(dāng)時(shí)動(dòng)作進(jìn)行的過(guò)程，故填was working。

【8】句意：有人對(duì)年輕的貝多芬說(shuō)他沒(méi)有音樂(lè)天賦。也就是貝多芬被告知沒(méi)有音樂(lè)天賦。要用tell的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，was told意思是“被告知”。

【9】but“但是”，表轉(zhuǎn)折，與前面一句意思形成對(duì)比。句意：盡管有人對(duì)貝多芬說(shuō)他沒(méi)有音樂(lè)天賦，但是他還是創(chuàng)作出了世上一些最好的音樂(lè)。

【10】用不定式作目的狀語(yǔ)。句意：在悲傷中你也會(huì)找到勇氣和信念去克服挫折。
