Answer 1

分析 本文講述了Mrs．Trench 回家時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)陌生人在她家里，坐在沙發(fā)上睡著了，她立刻意識(shí)到是小偷從開(kāi)著的窗戶里爬進(jìn)來(lái)了．Mrs．Trench 立刻去了警察局，帶了兩名警察回來(lái)，遺憾的是陌生人已經(jīng)離開(kāi)了，Mrs．Trench 跑上樓，打開(kāi)梳妝臺(tái)，當(dāng)她發(fā)現(xiàn)小偷拿走的只是一個(gè)不值錢的人造鉆石時(shí)，她欣慰的笑了．

解答 74．neigher；考查連詞，neither…nor…指"兩者都不"；本句指她和她丈夫都不抽煙．
75．a(chǎn)sleep；  分析上下文句意可知此處是指"對(duì)方是在椅子上睡著了"，故答案為asleep．
76．what；考查賓語(yǔ)從句，分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處是一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句，從句缺少主語(yǔ)，故用疑問(wèn)代詞what作賓語(yǔ)從句的主語(yǔ)．
77．must；考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞，結(jié)合上下文分析這是對(duì)過(guò)去情況的推測(cè)，must have done表示"過(guò)去一定做了某事"．
78．through；考查介詞，結(jié)合上文分析，此處意為"通過(guò)一扇打開(kāi)的窗戶"，through指穿過(guò)，通過(guò)．
79．in；考查介詞，結(jié)合上下文分析此處用in，指"在…里面"．
80．hurrying；考查分詞做狀語(yǔ)，因?yàn)閯?dòng)詞hurry與主語(yǔ)she構(gòu)成主動(dòng)關(guān)系，所以使用現(xiàn)在分詞形式作主語(yǔ)．
81．with；考查介詞，此處介詞with表示原因，意為"她欣慰地笑了"．
82．which；考查定語(yǔ)從句，關(guān)系代詞 which指代diamond necklace在從句中做主語(yǔ)．
83．worthless；考查形容詞，結(jié)合上下文分析，此處說(shuō)明他拿走的是假的寶石項(xiàng)鏈，那是不值錢的，故用形容詞worthless．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 答題時(shí)注意句子中人稱和數(shù)是否一致，時(shí)態(tài)是否一致．各種詞性之間的區(qū)別以及一些常用句型，固定短語(yǔ)的應(yīng)用．平時(shí)應(yīng)注重積累基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)，熟記一些句型及慣用結(jié)構(gòu)．解題前先細(xì)讀短文，完成以后再閱讀短文檢查是否語(yǔ)意通順，符合邏輯．
