Question

语法填空。

Two little children were sitting by the fire one cold winter’s night. Suddenly, they heard a knock at the door. “Who can it be?” they wondered. One ran 【题文1】 (curious) to open it. There, outside in the cold and the darkness, stood a child 【题文2】 no shoes on his feet and clad (穿……的衣服)in old thin garments. He 【题文3】 (tremble) with cold, and he asked to come in and warm himself.

“ Yes, come,” cried both the children. They drew the little stranger to their warm seat, shared their supper with him, and gave him their bed, and they slept on 【题文4】 hard bench.

On the night, they were awakened by sweet music, 【题文5】 was played by a band of children in shining garments. Suddenly the stranger child stood before 【题文6】 : no longer cold and ragged, but clad in silvery light. He said, “ I am the Christ Child, 【题文7】 (wander) through the world to bring peace and 【题文8】 (happy) to good children as you.  As you have helped me so much, this tree will give rich fruit to you every year.”

【题文9】 he was saying that, he broke a branch from the tree that grew near the door, and planted it in the ground and disappeared. But the branch grew 【题文10】 a great tree, and every year it bore wonderful golden fruit for the kind children.

Answer

1.curiously

2.with

3.was trembling

4.a

5.which

6.them

7.wandering

8.happiness

9.As / When / While

10.into

【解析】

试题分析：

1. curious 的副词形式对动词 ran 进行修饰。故正确答案为 curiously。

2. with 的复合结构。结合语意可知，a child _____ no shoes on his feet 意为“一个没有穿鞋的孩子”，此处使用介词 with 构成了 “with + 宾语 + 介词短语”结构，符合语意。故正确答案为 with。

3. was trembling。

4. a。

5. sweet music，应使用 which 进行引导。故正确答案为 which。

6. them，指代“这两个小孩”。故正确答案为 them。

7. through the world 在此充当 the Christ Child 的后置定语，对其进行修饰，且 the Christ Child 与 wander 之间构成主动关系，所以应使用现在分词。故正确答案为 wandering。

8. and 连接两个并列的成分。根据题干，并列成分为 peace and 158 ，其前连接的 peace 为名词，所以此处应该用 happy 的名词形式。故正确答案为 happiness。

9. saying 为持续性动词，主句语从句之间的动作同时发生，所以空格处可以使用 as/when/while 引导。置于句首时，首字母要大写，故正确答案为 As/When/While。

10. into 为固定短语，在此处意为“成长为”，符合语意。故正确答案为 into。
