答案解析:
36. scored
解析:此處需填入動詞作謂語。單詞詞尾的/d/音容易漏聽,根據(jù)so引導(dǎo)的并列句中的謂語were introduced,可知此處也需要過去時態(tài)。score作動詞時,表示“得分”。
37. measures
解析:此處需填入句子的主語成分,various表明該詞為名詞復(fù)數(shù)。measures表示“方法,措施”。
38. single
解析:此空需要填入修飾sex的形容詞,與sex和girl-only一起修飾classes。single sex指“單一性別”。
39. reversed
解析:此空需要一個與is一起構(gòu)成句子謂語的單詞,可能是形容詞或動詞分詞。reverse意為“相反”。
40. secondary
解析:此處需要填入形容詞,修飾schools。secondary schools意為“中學(xué)”。
41. failure
解析:空格前的academic和空格后的of表明此處需要名詞。academic failure指“學(xué)業(yè)未通過”。
42. roots
解析:空格前的has its表明此處需要填入名詞。roots指“根”。
43. confidence
解析:空格前的謂語動詞lack表明此處需要填入名詞,作賓語。confidence意為“信心”。
44. 標準答案:preferring small amounts of work with immediate deadlines rather than large projects stretching into the distance
聽音關(guān)鍵:preferring,small amounts,work,deadlines,rather than,large projects,stretching,distance
答案重構(gòu):preferring small amounts of work with immediate deadlines rather than long-term large projects
畫龍點睛:本句是比較句,將短時間可完成的工作和長時間完成的工作作比較。stretching into the distance可以用long-term替換。
45. 標準答案:because they are watching the future while the boys are watching the girls
聽音關(guān)鍵:because,they,watching,future,boys,watching,girls
畫龍點睛:本句不建議重構(gòu)。要求填寫的句子比較簡單,考生聽寫時只要能抓住關(guān)鍵詞,只要能用自己能夠識別的標識速記關(guān)鍵詞,本題就沒有什么難度。
46. 標準答案:despite the fact that pupils in the UK spend less time reading than in most other countries
聽音關(guān)鍵:despite,pupils,UK,spend,less time,than,other countries
答案重構(gòu):although/though pupils in the UK spend less time reading than in most other countries
畫龍點睛:本句的結(jié)構(gòu)是:介詞despite“盡管”后為名詞成分the fact that...,其中that之后的內(nèi)容為the fact的同位語從句。因此本句本以用連詞although或though來改寫。
n. 作威,虛張的勇氣
