【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】文章大意：一位老人丢了他的儿子，她向一位智者请教能带走她悲伤的方法，智者让她挨家寻找能带走悲伤的种子，这位老人在寻找这颗神奇种子的过程中明白了每家都有自己悲伤的事。
（1）句意：她去问一位智者，“有方法带走我的悲伤吗？”根据空前的went和空后的asked可知此空填一个并列连词，故填and。
（2）句意：去一个从不知悲伤的家里带给我一粒种子。I，我，人称代词主格，空前是动词bring，动词后用人称代词宾格，因此填I的宾格形式me，故填me。
（3）句意：这个妇女赶快出发去寻找那颗神奇的种子。quick，赶快的，迅速的，形容词，空前是动词短语went off，副词修饰动词，因此填quick的副词形式quickly，故填quickly。
（4）句意：首先她去了一所美丽的房子，敲开了门，然后有礼貌的问。 beauty ，美丽，名词，空后是名词house，形容词修饰名词，beauty的形容词是beautiful，故填beautiful。
（5）句意：打扰一下，我正在寻找一个从不知悲伤的家。home，家，可数名词，用的是单数形式，所以填不定冠词，又因为home以辅音音素开头，故因此用不定冠词a，故填a。
（6）句意：它对我很重要。be，是，动词，主语是it，第三人称单数，根据前文Is this such a place 可知此句用一般现在时，因此be用is，故填is。
（7）句意：他们开始描述最近他们发生的悲伤的事情。thing，事情，名词，根据空前的all可知此处用thing的复数形式，故填things。
（8）句意：这个妇女自言自语说，“谁能帮助那些和我一样有着悲伤的人？”根据8
can help these people that have had such sadness like me 可知此句是疑问句，缺少主语，因此填who，又因为在句首，因此大写，故填Who。
（9）句意：她变得忙着帮助别人以至于她忘了寻找种子。help，帮助，动词，固定搭配become busy dong sth变得忙于做某事，因此用help的ing形式，故填helping。
（10）句意：她甚至从没意识到她对于别人的帮助已经把悲伤从她的生活中驱逐。 realize ，意识到，动词，此句是一个含有宾语从句的复合句，根据宾语从句 her helping others had driven the sadness out of her life. 用的时态是过去完成时可知主句用一般过去时， realize的过去式是realized，故填 realized。
【点评】考查语法填空，词汇在篇章中的运用能力。答题时首先要跳过空格通读文章掌握其大意，然后细读文章字斟句酌逐一作答，注意考虑句型、语法、搭配、语境等因素。最后通读一遍检查验证。

Thank you for giving me the chance to share with you my experience in America for about one year as an exchange student. While in America, I lived in a homestay and learned about the life of common people. I studied in a public middle school and took many courses, including English writing, art, literature and history of western countries. During my stay, I visited many libraries and science and technology museums. I experienced the American culture when I toured around several cities there.
This is really an enjoyable and unforgettable experience for me. I got to know more about the differences between western countries and China. What's more, my oral English was improved.

the magic. "It explains the wonders of the universe(宇宙)," said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong last
week.
Hawking, 64, is
probably the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an
expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the
beginning (and the end) of the universe.
"My goal is
simple," Hawking once said. "It is to completely
understand the universe, why it is and why it is there at all."
Hawking has a bad
illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no
way to communicate except(除了) by
blinking(眨眼).
Now he sits on a
wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to
control the computer's mouse. He selects(挑选)
his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音乐合成器).
"I have had the
disease for most of my life," Hawking once said. "Yet it has not
stopped me from being successful at my work."
Although Hawking is
such a disabled man, he made great achievements(成就).
He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This
includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in
theoretical physics(理论物理).

【答案】and；me；quickly；beautiful；a；is；things；Who；helping；realized
【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】文章大意：一位老人丢了他的儿子，她向一位智者请教能带走她悲伤的方法，智者让她挨家寻找能带走悲伤的种子，这位老人在寻找这颗神奇种子的过程中明白了每家都有自己悲伤的事。
（1）句意：她去问一位智者，“有方法带走我的悲伤吗？”根据空前的went和空后的asked可知此空填一个并列连词，故填and。
（2）句意：去一个从不知悲伤的家里带给我一粒种子。I，我，人称代词主格，空前是动词bring，动词后用人称代词宾格，因此填I的宾格形式me，故填me。
（3）句意：这个妇女赶快出发去寻找那颗神奇的种子。quick，赶快的，迅速的，形容词，空前是动词短语went off，副词修饰动词，因此填quick的副词形式quickly，故填quickly。
（4）句意：首先她去了一所美丽的房子，敲开了门，然后有礼貌的问。 beauty ，美丽，名词，空后是名词house，形容词修饰名词，beauty的形容词是beautiful，故填beautiful。
（5）句意：打扰一下，我正在寻找一个从不知悲伤的家。home，家，可数名词，用的是单数形式，所以填不定冠词，又因为home以辅音音素开头，故因此用不定冠词a，故填a。
（6）句意：它对我很重要。be，是，动词，主语是it，第三人称单数，根据前文Is this such a place 可知此句用一般现在时，因此be用is，故填is。
（7）句意：他们开始描述最近他们发生的悲伤的事情。thing，事情，名词，根据空前的all可知此处用thing的复数形式，故填things。
（8）句意：这个妇女自言自语说，“谁能帮助那些和我一样有着悲伤的人？”根据8
can help these people that have had such sadness like me 可知此句是疑问句，缺少主语，因此填who，又因为在句首，因此大写，故填Who。
（9）句意：她变得忙着帮助别人以至于她忘了寻找种子。help，帮助，动词，固定搭配become busy dong sth变得忙于做某事，因此用help的ing形式，故填helping。
（10）句意：她甚至从没意识到她对于别人的帮助已经把悲伤从她的生活中驱逐。 realize ，意识到，动词，此句是一个含有宾语从句的复合句，根据宾语从句 her helping others had driven the sadness out of her life. 用的时态是过去完成时可知主句用一般过去时， realize的过去式是realized，故填 realized。
【点评】考查语法填空，词汇在篇章中的运用能力。答题时首先要跳过空格通读文章掌握其大意，然后细读文章字斟句酌逐一作答，注意考虑句型、语法、搭配、语境等因素。最后通读一遍检查验证。
