1．句意：然而他的儿子没有生活的目标也很不开心。此处和前句是转折关系，空后由逗号隔开，用 however
“然而”连接，位于句首首字母需大写。故填 However。
2．句意：随着时间的流逝，这个人越来越担心，也越来越难过。根据“wasn’t happy”以及“more worried…”
可知，智者变得越来越担心，也越来越难过，应用 sad 的比较级 sadder“更伤心的”。故填 sadder。
3．句意：最后，他到了那个地方，开始挖掘。根据“he reached the place”可知，是最后终于到了那个地方，
修饰整个句子用 final 的副词 finally “最后”，位于句首首字母需大写。故填 Finally。
4．句意：他挖啊挖，但是什么都没有发现。根据“was found”可知，转折词后表示什么也没有发现，nothing
“没有什么” 符合语境。故填 nothing。
5．句意：在回来的路上，他注意到翩翩起舞的鸟儿和美丽的花朵。根据“flowers”可知，是美丽的花朵，
beautiful“美丽的” 符合语境。故填 beautiful。
6．句意：他在地里遇到了快乐的农夫。根据“in the fields”及备选词可知，在地里遇到了农民，空前无限定
词，此处用名词 farmer 的复数 farmers “农民”。故填 farmers。
7．句意：当然没有！我担心别人会比我先找到宝藏。根据“Of course not, I was worried that someone else would
find the treasure…I did”可知，智者的儿子很担心别人在他之前找到宝藏，before “在……之前”符合语境。故
填 before。
8．句意：儿子不停地告诉他的父亲他在回来的路上所注意到的。根据“on…way back”可知，是在他回来的
路上，用 he 对应的形容词性物主代词 his。故填 his。
9．句意：但是如果你脑子里只有目标，你将会错过一些美好的东西，也不会高兴。该句表示假设的情况，
“the goal is the only thing in your mind”是“you’ll miss something nice and won’t be happy”的条件，所以用 if
“如果” 引导条件状语从句。故填 if。
10．句意：所以，请记住：有一个目标和享受生活的过程比仅仅有一个目标更为重要。根据“to have a goal
and enjoy the journey in life than just to have a goal”以及文章的内容可知，有目标并享受旅程比只有目标更重
要，根据“than”可知此处用 important“重要的”的比较级 more important。故填 more important。

1．句意：它有几个总是开很多玩笑的角色。根据“It has a few characters that always...a lot of jokes.”可知，这
里需要一个动词，构成短语表示“开玩笑”。结合所给单词，make 有“制造，产生”的意思，“make jokes”是固
定短语，意为“开玩笑”。句子描述的是卡通片里角色的行为特点，是一般现在时，主语 characters 是复数，
动词用原形。故填 make。
2．句意：在电影里，有一个大仓院，周围种着许多向日葵。根据“In the movie there is a big barnyard (仓院)
with lots of sunflowers around...”可知，这里指代前面提到的 barnyard，用 it 来代替，避免重复。故填 it。
3．句意：这些动物很喜欢开车、唱歌和跳舞。根据“The owners(主人) of the barnyard have many cows, pigs,
pandas, goats, sheep, ducks and chickens. These...like driving, singing and dancing a lot.”可知，这里说的是前面
提到的各种动物喜欢做的事情，结合所给单词，animal 意为“动物”，前面有 these 修饰，要用复数形式 animals。
故填 animals。
4．句意：奶牛比仓院里的其他动物聪明得多。根据“The cows are much smarter...the other animals in the
barnyard.”可知，这里是奶牛和其他动物进行比较，结合所给单词，than 用于比较级中，表示“比”。故填 than。

like human beings.”可知，人类是用两条腿走路的，结合所给单词，two 意为“二”，符合语境。故填 two。
6．句意：他还要求动物们未经允许不要游泳或看电视。根据“He also asks the animals not to swim or...TV
without permission(允许).”可知，固定短语“watch TV”，意为“看电视”。ask sb. not to do sth.是“要求某人不
要做某事”，所以这里用动词原形 watch。故填 watch。
7．句意：当主人们外出时，它们日夜玩得很开心。根据“When the owners are out, they become crazy(疯狂的).
They play together so...day and night.”可知，这里需要一个副词修饰动词 play，表示玩得的状态。结合所给
单词，happy 意为“开心的”，其副词形式 happily 表示“开心地”。故填 happily。
8．句意：动物们和它们的家处于危险之中。根据“One day, a group of wolves come to the barnyard. The animals
and their home are...danger.”狼群来到农庄，所以动物们和它们的家面临危险，可知，“in danger”是固定短语，
意为“处于危险之中”。故填 in。
9．句意：他有一个对付狼群的好主意。根据“He has a good...to do with the wolves.”可知，这里需要一个名
词，结合所给单词，idea 意为“主意”，“have a good idea”表示“有一个好主意”。故填 idea。
10．句意：最后，它们打败了狼群，奥蒂斯成为了新的领头奶牛。根据“And at last, they beat the wolves...Otis

给单词，and 可以连接两个并列的句子，表示顺承关系。故填 and。Unit 6 An old man tried to move the mountains.
