Answer 1

【答案】

【1】would kill

【2】nothing

【3】but

【4】leaving

【5】whether

【6】It

【7】to live

【8】the

【9】magically

【10】which

【解析】

【1】考查過去將來時。形式為would+v-ing。前文提到安東尼知道自己只有一年活了，所以他應(yīng)該是在一年內(nèi)因腦瘤而終,且主句為過去時，故填would killed。

【2】考查代詞。nothing表是什么都沒有，something表示某些事。由前文“He was completely broken at the time”知，這時他的身體已經(jīng)完全被破壞了，所以他應(yīng)該是沒有什么為他的妻子留下了。故填nothing。

【3】考查并列連詞的用法。并列連詞有and ,but ,for等等but 表示轉(zhuǎn)折的含義，但是……，根據(jù)上文“so he had to leave behind for his wife, Lynne.”所以他沒有什么為他的妻子琳恩留下和下文“he always know the potential was inside him to be a writer.”他一直知道作為一個作者，他是有潛在價值的。安東尼沒有什么為他的妻子留下，但他是個著名的作家。故填but。

【4】考查動名詞。動名詞即動詞的ing形式，是屬于非謂語動詞的一種，其語法作用就是相當于名詞，可以做主語，賓語。介詞后面不能直接接動詞，必須接動名詞。of屬于介詞，故填leaving。

【5】考查連詞whether用法。whether和if都有否定之意，都能引導從句，但whether引導的從句常與or、or not等連用，而if則一般不能。句中出現(xiàn)了or not，故填whether。

【6】考查物主代詞it用法。it常用來指代時間、距離、天氣、溫度等，這里指代時間“January of 1960”1960年二月，故填I(lǐng)t。

【7】考查have用法。have sth to do表示有某事要做，have sb doing sth表示使某人做某事，have sth done表示使某事被做�！癐 had a winter and spring and summer (live) through,”意思是我還有一個冬天，一個春天，一個夏天去活。故填to live。

【8】考查定冠詞的用法。定冠詞the ，表示某一個，某一些特定的人或者事，且在形容詞或者副詞的最高級前，序數(shù)詞前也要用定冠詞�！癰efore year was through.”指的是在今年過完之前，這里特指最后安東尼人生中的最后一年。故填the。

【9】考查副詞。副詞修飾形容詞或者動詞。他的癌癥慢慢減輕，然后奇跡般地消失了。這里magically修飾動詞disappeared。故填magically。

【10】考查定語從句。定語從句中指代物的的關(guān)系代詞有which和that，但用逗號隔開時，一般不能用that。he wrote more than 70 books, turns out to be an amazing achievement.缺少關(guān)系代詞做主語，指代books，且用逗號隔開了，故填which。
