- 试题详情及答案解析
- In the early times some people learned 【小题1】 (grow) crops and raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.
Since 【小题2】 (sixteen) century, the word farm has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word farm is linked 【小题3】economics. The word farm comes from the Latin word, firma, 【小题4】 means an unchanging payment. Experts say the earliest 【小题5】 (mean) of the English word farm was a yearly payment 【小题6】 (make) as a tax or rent.
Farmers know that 【小题7】 is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay (干草) has to be cut and gathered 【小题8】 it is dry. So a wise farmer never delays gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear.
A wise person copies the farmer. He works when 【小题9】 (condition) are right. A new mother, for example, 【小题10】 (quick) learn to try to sleep when her baby is quite, even in the middle of the day. If the mother delays, she may lose her chance to sleep. So, the mother learns to make hey while the sun shines.- 答案：【小题1】to grow
【小题2】the sixteenth
【小题3】to
【小题4】which
【小题5】meaning
【小题6】made
【小题7】it
【小题8】when
【小题9】conditions
【小题10】quickly - 【小题1】固定搭配learn to do…学做某事，所以此空填to grow
【小题2】此处应该是第十六世纪，所以要用序数词，序数词前加the表示“第几----”，故填the sixteenth
【小题3】固定搭配be linked to…与---有关联，所以填to
【小题4】the Latin word, firma,作先行词，后面是一个which引导的非限制性定语从句。句意是：单词farm来自拉丁语的firma，它意味着一个不变的付款。
【小题5】the earliest是形容词最高级，后面应该用名词，故用mean的名词形式meaning
【小题6】payment和make之间是被动关系，且句子有谓语动词故用过去分词made,句意是：专家们说最早英语单词farm的意思是每年的租金或税收的付款。
【小题7】Farmers know that后面的宾语从句应用it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式短语。句意是：农民们知道，当太阳照耀的时候晒干草是必要的。
【小题8】根据句意干草必须在天气干燥时收割和采集。所以此处应该是when引导的时间状语从句。
【小题9】condition后面的be动词是复数are，所以名词condition用复数形式conditions
【小题10】learn是动词，所以用副词修饰动词，故用quickly
