任务型阅读

Dear Grandpa and Grandma,

I like the life here in the city very much. It’s easy and convenient(便利). Do you know anything about the way of shopping here? People often make shopping lists(清单) first and then they go shopping. Many people like to go to supermarkets because they can get almost(几乎) everything in one supermarket. They can buy many kinds of clothes, food, sports things and many other things. And the things in the supermarkets are not expensive. When they go into a supermarket, they get a shopping basket. Then they take things and put them in the basket. After they get everything they need, they pay(付款) the money. Many people go to the supermarket four times a month.

When you come to visit me, I’ll show you around the supermarket near my home. It’s really a nice place to go.

Love from,

Simon

【解析】

本文是一篇西蒙写给他祖父母的信，信中介绍了在城市中人们购物的方式。

1.句意：哪里。

根据Many people like to go to supermarkets because they can get almost everything in one supermarket“许多人喜欢去超市，因为在超市里他们几乎能买到每样东西”，可知，超市是他们购物的地点。根据左侧框内why/how often/how，都是疑问词，所以第一个空格填表示地点的疑问词where。故答案为Where。

2.句意：人们在超市里能买到他们所需要的许多东西。

根据They can buy many kinds of clothes, food, sports things and many other things“他们能买到各种样式的衣服，食物，运动物品，和其他许多东西”，可知，在超市里能买到许多东西，things是可数名词复数，所以空格处填many表示“许多”。故答案为many。

3.句意：那里的东西是便宜的。

根据And the things in the supermarkets are not expensive“超市里的东西不贵的”，可知，超市里的东西是便宜的，空格前are是系动词，所以空格处填形容词cheap作表语。故答案为cheap。

4.句意：一周一次。

根据Many people go to the supermarket four times a month“许多人一个月去四次超市”，可知，一个星期是去一次，所以空格处填once。故答案为once。

5.句意：购物之前：列好购物清单。

根据People often make shopping lists first and then they go shopping“人们通常先列好购物清单，然后再去购物”，可知，购物清单是在购物之前准备好的，所以空格处填before。故答案为Before。
