Answer 1

分析 文章大意：本文介紹了Ruth Simmons的一生．她出生于一個(gè)貧窮家庭，小時(shí)候的生活過(guò)得很艱辛，上學(xué)后在優(yōu)秀老師的教導(dǎo)下，順利畢業(yè)后成為了一名大學(xué)老師，后來(lái)人們注意到了她并尊敬她的能力，國(guó)內(nèi)的女性們都為她感到自豪．

解答 51．born 考查動(dòng)詞的詞形．be born表示出生，此處的be動(dòng)詞was已經(jīng)給出，填born即可．
52．farmers 考查名詞的數(shù)．由中文提示可知用farmer表示農(nóng)民，主語(yǔ)parents是名詞復(fù)數(shù)，且be動(dòng)詞were也是復(fù)數(shù)形式，所以要填farmer的復(fù)數(shù)形式，表示她的父母都是農(nóng)民．
53．get 考查動(dòng)詞的詞形．由中文提示可知用get表示得到，在助動(dòng)詞didn't后，用原形即可．此處表示她得不到任何禮物．
54．except 考查介詞．結(jié)合中文提示可知用except表示除了．此處表示了一個(gè)裝著蘋(píng)果，橙子和一些堅(jiān)果的鞋盒外．
55．daily 考查形容詞．此處修飾名詞life，應(yīng)該用形容詞來(lái)修飾，由中文提示可知用daily表示日常的．
56．especially 考查副詞．結(jié)合中文提示可知用副詞especially表示尤其，此處表示尤其是在南部．
57．excellent 考查形容詞．此處修飾名詞teachers，結(jié)合中文提示可知用形容詞excellent來(lái)修飾，表示優(yōu)秀的老師們．
58．notice 考查固定搭配．begin to do sth表示開(kāi)始做某事，結(jié)合中文和此短語(yǔ)可知，用notice來(lái)表示注意，填原形即可．
59．experience 考查動(dòng)詞的詞形．結(jié)合中文提示可知用動(dòng)詞experience來(lái)表示經(jīng)歷，用在情態(tài)動(dòng)詞can后用原形即可．
60．proud 考查固定搭配．be proud of表示對(duì)…感到自豪，此處be動(dòng)詞are和of已經(jīng)給出，填proud表示感到自豪即可．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考查平時(shí)詞匯量的掌握與對(duì)一些固定搭配的掌握，并需要注意文章上下文間的聯(lián)系，結(jié)合語(yǔ)境作答．
