Question

【題目】閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

We’ve all heard stories of school dropouts who have made their fortune, but are they the norm(典型)or an exception to the rule? Do they tend to be university 【1】(graduate) or self-made businessmen?

Thanks to a recent 【2】(analyse) of people in Forbes’ top 100 billionaires list, we can now find out 【3】 the world’s richest people have in common.

If you are deciding whether or not to go to university, it may help you 【4】(know) that 76% of the richest people in the world have a degree. Don’t lose hope if you aren’t very academic though. It’s worth 【5】(note) that many of those on the list did not pass all 【6】(they)exams with flying colours. Microsoft founder Bill Gates 【7】(drop) out of Harvard University after two years of study. And Chinese businessman Jack Ma failed his university entrance exams three times 【8】 going on to complete his degree.

Another 【9】(interest) trend is that the world’s high-fliers are much more likely to be married— only 12% of billionaires are unmarried. Finally, the percentage of billionaires 【10】 are bald(禿頭的) is quite high—so don’t worry if you are losing your hair.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】graduates

【2】analysis

【3】what

【4】(to) know

【5】noting

【6】their

【7】dropped

【8】before

【9】interesting

【10】who/that

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。文章講述了世界上最富有的人的共同點：76％的最富有的人都有學(xué)位，88%的億萬富翁已婚。

【1】考查名詞的數(shù)。graduate在句子中是名詞，意為“畢業(yè)生”，they指代的是它的復(fù)數(shù)形式，從businessmen也可以看出，graduate應(yīng)使用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故填graduates。

【2】考查名詞。句意：由不定冠詞a可知，recent后面應(yīng)該使用名詞形式，analyse（分析）是動詞，它的名詞是analysis。故填analysis。

【3】考查賓語從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，find out后面是一個賓語從句，have缺少賓語，空格處指物，應(yīng)使用what引導(dǎo)賓語從句。故填what。

【4】考查非謂語動詞。help sb.（to）do sth：幫助某人做某事。 故填（to）know。

【5】考查非謂語動詞。be worth doing：值得做某事，動名詞表示主動形式表示被動含義，根據(jù)句意，故填noting。

【6】考查形容詞性物主代詞。此處應(yīng)使用形容詞性物主代詞作定語修飾exams。故填their。

【7】考查時態(tài)。根據(jù)句意可知，比爾蓋茨離開哈弗大學(xué)是過去發(fā)生的事情，句子應(yīng)該使用一般過去時。故填dropped。

【8】考查介詞。句意：中國商人馬云（Jack Ma）在獲得學(xué)位之前，曾在高考中三次失利。由going可知，其前面應(yīng)使用介詞，結(jié)合上下文語境，應(yīng)使用before。故填before。

【9】考查形容詞。形容詞作定語修飾名詞trend，interest的形容詞是interesting。故填interesting。

【10】考查定語從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，空格處引導(dǎo)定語從句，先行詞是billionaires，指人，它在從句中作主語，因此應(yīng)使用who/that引導(dǎo)定語從句。故填who/that。
