我走马观花看桂林,一个由艺术家们在那么多中国画中绘出的探寻石灰岩山顶和丽江暗流的游客梦想之地。
这段英文出现在2015年高考英语课标卷第II卷的第三部分: 英语知识运用中,是一道语法填空天。
这段是节选自整篇文章的第二段第一句。
Yangshuo, China
It was raining lightly when I 61 (arrive) in Yangshuo just before dawn. But I didn’t care. A few hours 62 , I’d been at home in Hong Kong, with 63 (it) choking smog. Here, the air was clean and fresh, even with the rain.
I’d skipped nearby Guilin, a dream place for tourists seeking the limestone mountain tops and dark waters of the Li River 64 are pictured by artist in so many Chinese 65 (painting). Instead, I’d headed straight for Yangshuo. For those who fly to Guilin, it’s only an hour away 66 car and offers all the scenery of the best known city.
Yangshuo 67 (be) really beautiful. A study of travelers 68 (conduct) by the website TripAdvisor names Yangshuo as one of the top 10 destinations in the world. And the town is fast becoming a popular weekend destination for people in Asia. Abercrombie & Kent, a travel company in Hong Kong, says it 69 (regular) arranges quick getaways here for people 70 (live) in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
【篇章分析】本文主要讲述了作者游历阳朔之后的感受和评价。
61. arrived
【解析】提示词为动词arrive,并且when引导的时间状语从句中缺少谓语动词,根据前后句已知动词的时态可判断为一般过去时。
62. before / earlier
【解析】没有提示词,可判断62所在的部分为时间状语,填写副词,同时可发现句子用had done过去完成时,所以此处为副词before。注意ago通常与一般过去时搭配使用。
63. its
【解析】提示词为代词it,后面有名词,所以用形容词性物主代词its。
64. which / that
【解析】没有提示词,64题前后都有谓语动词,可判断此处填从属连词,64题前面是名词指物,后面缺少主语,所以填写定语从句从属连词which。
65. paintings
【解析】提示词为名词painting,前面是形容词many和Chinese,所以此处用名词复数。
66. by
【解析】没有提示词,根据句意,填写介词,用固定搭配 by car。
67. is
【解析】提示词为be动词,此句缺少谓语动词,根据句意和后句的时态,此处用一般现在时。
68. conducted
【解析】提示词为动词conduct,68所在的句子已有谓语动词names,所以此处填写非谓语动词,68前的名词study与动词conduct为被动关系,而且68后面有提示词by,所以此处用过去分词形式。
69. regularly
【解析】提示词为形容词regular,69后面为动词arranges,副词修饰动词,所以此处将形容词改为副词。
70. living
【解析】提示词为动词live,70所在的句子中已有谓语动词arranges,所以此处用非谓语动词,70前的名词people和动词live之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词形式。
