73.句意:为什么会有人想把一个巨大的菠萝放在他们的凉亭顶上?根据“put a huge pineapple…top of their summerhouse”可知,on the top of…表示“在……顶部”。故填on。
74.句意:在17、18世纪,欧洲的富人被这种水果所吸引。根据“In the 17th and 18th”可知,这里指多个世纪,因此填名词复数。故填centuries。
75.句意:这种水果不仅需求量很大,而且在欧洲也很难种植。根据“it was…difficult to grow the pineapple in Europe.”可知,这里是副词修饰形容词difficult。故填really。
76.句意:所以菠萝被称为“水果之王”。根据“pineapples…the ‘the king of fruits’.”可知,主语“pineapples”与谓语动词“call”是被动关系,本句可以用一般现在时的被动也可以用一般过去时的被动语态,且主语是复数,因此be动词为“are/were”。故填are/were called。
77.句意:富人要求他们的园丁想办法种植水果。全文是一般过去时,因此动词填过去式。故填required。
78.句意:The Pineapple也有一个温室种植菠萝。根据“The Pineapple also has a hothouse…pineapples.”可知,此处是不定式表示目的。故填to grow。
79.句意:如今,虽然The Pineapple并不受欢迎,但它仍然被认为是世界上最经典的建筑之一。根据“The Pineapple is not popular,”和“it is still thought as one of most classical buildings all over the world.”可知,此处是“although/though”引导的让步状语从句,表示“尽管;虽然”。故填although/though。
80.句意:如果你有机会,就去看看吧!根据“If you have…chance”可知,此处泛指一个机会,chance是辅音音素开头的单词,因此前面是a。故填a。

【导语】本文主要进述了作者去年不喜欢英语课,通过一个名叫《玩具总动员》的英文电影而喜欢上英语课的故事。
81.句意:老师讲得太快了,大多数时候我几乎听不懂。根据“The teacher spoke so quickly…I could hardly…”可知,此处是说老师讲的太快,“以至于”我几乎听不懂;因此是so…that“如此……以至于……”。故填that。
82.句意:因为我的发音不好,我不敢问问题。根据“because of my poor…”可知,poor是形容词,这里应填名词,表示差的“发音”;pronounce 动词,名词是pronunciation“发音”。故填pronunciation。
83.句意:我只是躲在课本后面,什么都不说。根据文章开头“Last year”可知,本文是一般过去时,因此这里填动词过去式;hide的过去式是hid。故填hid。
84.句意:然后有一天,我看了一部英文电影叫《玩具总动员》。此处表示泛指“一部英文电影”;又根据“English”可知,它是元音音素开头的单词,因此前面是an。故填an。
85.句意:虽然我不能理解角色所说的一切,但他们的肢体语言和脸上的表情帮助我猜出了他们的意思。根据“I could not understand everything the characters said,”和“their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me…the meaning.”可知,这两句之间是转折关系,表示“尽管”不理解角色说的一切;though/although“尽管”,在句首首字母大写。故填Though/Although。

87.句意:我学到了一些有用的句子,比如“这是小菜一碟”或“你活该”。根据“I learned some useful sentences和“‘It’s a piece of cake’ or ‘It serves you right’.”可知,此处表示学到了一些“像”这两句话的句子。故填like。
88.句意:一开始我不懂这些句子,但因为我想理解这个故事,我就查字典。根据空前“looked”可知,动词后跟人称代词宾格,因此填they的宾格them。故填them。
89.句意:现在我真的很喜欢听我的英语老师和享受我的英语课。根据题空前“have fun”可知,此处是固定用法,have fun doing sth.“乐于做某事”。故填listening。
90.句意:我想学习更多的新单词和语法,这样我就可以对英语电影有更清晰的理解。根据上文“more”可知,本句使用比较级,much也用于修饰形容词的比较级。clear为形容词,意为“清楚的”,其比较级形式为clearer 或者more clear。故填clearer/more clear。

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了安德里亚在开车回家的途中遇见了装扮成妇人,且包里装有刀的男人。安德里亚害怕之余,急中生智,想出了办法,成功地将男人赶下了车。
91.句意:安德里亚正开车回布鲁克波恩的家。根据上文“The sun was falling behind the hills.”可知,时态是一般过去时;再根据语境指当太阳落山时,安德里亚正开车回家,故时态是过去进行时,结构:was/were+动词ing形式,因为主语是第三人称单数,故填was driving。
92.句意:然后她看见一个老妇人正站在路边。根据语境泛指她看见了一个老妇人站在路边,故用不定冠词修饰,old首字母发元音,故用an修饰。故填an。
93.句意:安德里亚可以看见她穿着长裙,帽子拉得很低,盖住了眼睛。空格处缺少形容词性物主代词修饰名词eye,故主格she要转化为形容词性物主代词her。故填her。
94.句意:这个老妇人低声回答。根据上文“The sun was falling behind the hills.”可知,时态是一般过去时,故谓语动词要用过去式。故填answered。
95.句意:所以我决定搭便车。根据上文“but my car won't start,”可知,因为车子不能启动,所以这个妇人决定搭便车,so“所以”。故填so。
96.句意:安德里亚偷偷地打量着这半遮着的脸和有着浓密黑毛的手臂。空格处缺少副词修饰动词studied,故形容词secret要加后缀ly变成副词。故填secretly。
97.句意:安德里亚偷偷地打量着这半遮着的脸和有着浓密黑毛的手臂。根据下文“This wasn’t a woman, but a man!”可知,这个不是妇人而是手臂上长着浓密黑毛的男人,with“有着”。故填with。
98.句意:我什么也没看见。根据下文“Could you just get out and have a look ”可知,安德里亚谎称撞倒孩子了,让男人下车看看,显然这个男人什么都没有看见,故否定句中something要转化为anything。故填anything。
99.句意:我确定那一定是个孩子。空格处缺少主语,根据上文““Oh, no! A child! I think I hit a child!””可知,空格处用代词it指代安德里亚撞倒的人。故填it。
100.句意:几分钟后。根据语境指几分钟之后,故形容词late“晚的”要转化为later“以后”。故填later。
