题目要求为“以下方框是你在本单元所学到的一些表达。你明白它们的意思吗?你知道如何在适当的语境下使用它们吗?现在你自己来做一下填空练习。在必要的地方改变它们的形式。”
1.原句翻译为“他给我写了一张简短的便条,说他已经原谅了我,这使我终于__。”,其中“that he had forgiven me”是saying的并宾语从句,which引导非限定性定语从句修饰前边的整个句子,我们推出空格处的翻译为“放心”,“set my mind at rest”意为“让我的心放下了”,结合所给短语的意思,可选出答案at rest。
2.原句翻译为“很遗憾,比尔大学一年级后就__。”,其中“that Bill __ of college after his first year”是同位语从句,解释说明pity的内容,我们推出空格处的翻译为“退学了”,结合所给短语的意思,我们推出“退学”这个动作已经发生,所以从句用一般过去时,可选出答案dropped out。
3.原句翻译为“当我发现我的智慧正在__时,我不知道该怎么办。”,其中“ what to do”是know的宾语从句,when引导时间状语从句说明动作发生的时间,“my wisdom was __”是found的宾语从句,由was可知该从句的时态是过去进行时,我们推出空格处的翻译为“干涸”,结合所给短语的意思,可选出答案drying out。
4.原句翻译为“为了帮助自己找到好工作,许多失业的年轻人决定__由当地政府组织的职业培训课程。”,其中“To help themselves find good jobs”表示目的,“decided to do sth.”意为“决定做某事”,“organized by the local government”是后置定语修饰courses,我们推出空格处的翻译为“参加”,结合所给短语的意思,可选出答案drop in。
5.原句翻译为“我没有注意到自己的错误,但最后我__乔安娜一直都是对的。”,其中“at last”意为“最后”,“all along“意为”自始至终,一直”,我们推出空格处的翻译为“明白”,but引导关系相反的句子,但时态是一致的,所以空格处的时态是一般过去时,结合所给短语的意思,可选出答案dawned on。
解析
本题考查动词短语的语境理解和形式变化。解题核心在于:
- 准确理解短语含义,结合句意选择合适短语;
- 注意动词时态、语态及非谓语形式;
- 关注句子结构(如主谓一致、从句关系等)。
第(1)题
关键点:短语set one's mind at rest表示“消除疑虑,放心”。
原句中“which finally set my mind __”需填入短语后半部分at rest,与set构成固定搭配。
第(2)题
关键点:短语drop out表示“退学”。
句中“after his first year”表明动作发生在过去,需用一般过去时dropped out。
第(3)题
关键点:短语dry out表示“干涸”。
句中“was”后接现在分词,表示过去进行时,故填drying out。
第(4)题
关键点:短语drop in表示“参加(活动)”。
句中“decide to __”需填入动词原形drop in,表示“参加职业培训课程”。
第(5)题
关键点:短语dawn on表示“突然明白”。
句中“at last”强调动作完成,需用一般过去时dawned on。
