Magic Touch

From my hotel room window，I could see a large advertisement board with his face on it: Jason, the Great Magician.

I absent-mindedly turned the 【1】 (page) of the phone book and came across a city map. Drinking my iced coffee I ran my fingers along the streets 【2】 the hotel to the opera hall. Not more 【3】 a half-hour walk, I thought.

I looked 【4】 (quick) at the clock, "The show starts in one hour; plenty of time! I drank the rest of my coffee and went to take a shower. Soon after, I was on my way to the show, 【5】 (carry) a fancy black handbag and a happy smile.

The hall was dark when I came in; the show was about 【6】 (begin). I made my way backstage just 【7】 the great magician was putting on his top hat.

“Daddy, I'm so glad to see you,” I 【8】 (whisper), I'm in town for the writer’s class, but I just couldn’t miss your show.” I gave him a quick hug and went back into the seating area，leaving him with a 【9】 (surprise) smile. I settled down in the darkness, and the curtains opened.

【1】pages

【2】from

【3】than

【4】quickly

【5】carrying

【6】to begin

【7】as/when

【8】whispered

【9】surprised

【10】performance

【解析】

試題分析：本文講述了作者觀看魔術(shù)師表演的故事。

【1】pages 句意：我心不在焉地翻閱電話簿。此處用名詞復(fù)數(shù)，故填pages。

【2】from 表示“從賓館到歌劇廳”。from...to...從……到……，故填from。

【3】than 表示“最多半小時(shí)的路程”。not more than至多。故填than。

【4】quickly 副詞修飾動(dòng)詞，故填quickly。

【5】carrying 現(xiàn)在分詞表伴隨狀態(tài)，故填carrying。

【6】to begin 句意：表演正要開始。be about to do sth.正要做某事，故填to begin。

【7】as/when 句意：當(dāng)偉大的魔術(shù)師正戴上他的帽子時(shí)，我以我的方式到了后臺(tái)。時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，故填as/when。

【8】whispered 過去發(fā)生在過去，故用一般過去時(shí)態(tài)，故填whispered。

【9】surprised 句意：帶著驚訝的微笑離開了他。過去分詞作前置定語(yǔ)，故填surprised。

【10】performance 表示“最好的表演”，此處用名詞形式，故填performance。

【知識(shí)拓展】

while, when, as的用法區(qū)別

都譯為“當(dāng)…的時(shí)候”,區(qū)別為：when后的從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞既可是延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞,也可是短暫性動(dòng)詞,而且還可作并列連詞,譯為“這時(shí)”.但以下句型一定用when,作并列連詞：

句型A：be about to do…when…正要做…這時(shí)(發(fā)生另一事)

句型B：was/were doing…when…正在…這時(shí)(發(fā)生另一事)

句型C：had done…when…剛要做…這時(shí)(發(fā)生另一事)

1.We were about to set out when it began to rain.我們剛要出發(fā)天突然下雨了.

2.He had hardly sat down when his mobile rang.他剛一坐下手機(jī)就響了.

3.I was walking along the bank of the river when I fell into it.我正沿河岸散步突然掉進(jìn)水里.

while后的從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞只能是延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞,強(qiáng)調(diào)主從句的兩個(gè)動(dòng)詞同時(shí)發(fā)生；while也可作并列連詞,表示兩個(gè)動(dòng)作的對(duì)比,譯為“而”“然而”.as則表示兩個(gè)變化中的動(dòng)作的同時(shí)性,譯為“一邊…一邊…”.

1.While his mother was cooking in the kitchen, the boy fell asleep in the chair.(在一個(gè)延續(xù)動(dòng)作過程中發(fā)生另一個(gè)動(dòng)作)

2.He hurried home, looking behind as he went.他匆匆回家,邊走邊往后看.
