Answer 1

【答案】

【1】has

【2】but

【3】after

【4】or

【5】useless

【6】that

【7】Yet

【8】unlucky

【9】so

【10】those/the

【解析】

【1】has 首先要對(duì)該句進(jìn)行主謂賓的句法分析，發(fā)現(xiàn)主語(yǔ)和賓語(yǔ)都有，缺少一個(gè)謂語(yǔ)，根據(jù)句意和時(shí)態(tài)，所以填寫(xiě)has。

【2】but 考查語(yǔ)境分析及上下文關(guān)系，此句子與上文之間表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以用but，不能使用however，因?yàn)槿羰褂胔owever必須后面跟一個(gè)逗號(hào)。

【3】after 句子是想表明發(fā)生地震幾個(gè)小時(shí)之后，所以填寫(xiě)after。

【4】or 該空前面兩個(gè)詞都是動(dòng)詞，所以填寫(xiě)一個(gè)連接詞，但是要明確是轉(zhuǎn)折，并列，還是選擇關(guān)系，根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可以判斷是選擇關(guān)系。

【5】useless 根據(jù)下午的“gone...”說(shuō)明，地震后的軌道系統(tǒng)都失去作用了，所以將use變?yōu)閡seless。

【6】that 本題考查定語(yǔ)從句的連接詞，因?yàn)榍懊嬗邢薅ǔ煞郑�所以只能填�?xiě)that，不能填寫(xiě)which。

【7】Yet 根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，這里想表達(dá)的是一個(gè)前后對(duì)比的關(guān)系，所以用yet。

【8】unlucky 因?yàn)檫@個(gè)城市發(fā)生地震了，所以是不幸的，將lucky變?yōu)榉戳x詞unlucky。

【9】so so that...以便，以至于...考查固定搭配

【10】those/the 該空缺少一個(gè)主語(yǔ)，所以既可以用復(fù)數(shù)形式those代詞，也可以用the killed（死去的人）表示，兩者都可以。
