So Nick called to his son, “Go to the village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much ____小题2:__too little.”His son looked surprised. “I can understand why I shouldn’t pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less, ____小题3:__not save a bit of money?”“ That would be a very ____小题4:__(reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours,” Nick said.Nick’s guests, ____小题5:__had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could.

Answer 1

小题1:found 小题2:nor 小题3:why 小题4:reasonable 小题5:who 小题6:at 小题7:for 小题8:possibly 小题9:a 小题10:thinking

试题分析: 一天，尼克在家里请朋友吃饭，但是发现家里没有盐了，于是他就让儿子去买盐，而且告诉儿子买盐不要太贵也不要太便宜，否则会毁了一个村庄。客人和儿子都不理解：为什么不能买便宜的盐呢？于是，尼克对此说出了自己的道理 小题1:found。整篇文章是叙述过去的事情，应该用过去时态，此空填found。 小题2:nor。固定短语：neither….nor“既不……也不”，所以填nor。 小题3:why。根据语境可知此处表示说话人的建议，根据结构可知此处是“why not+ v原形”表示提议，填why。 小题4:reasonable。此处修饰名词thing，所以应该用形容词reasonable。 小题5:who 。从结构可知此处是非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代先行词guests，用who。 小题6:at。固定搭配：“at a low /high price”意思是“以低价或高价”，填介词at。 小题7:for。固定短语：show respect for sb “对某人表示尊重”，填介词for。 小题8:possibly。此处修饰动词应该用副词形式，can’t possibly “不可能”，填possibly。 小题9:a。固定短语：a small amount of意思是“少量的”，填不定冠词a。 小题10:thinking。根据结构可知此处是非谓语短语做状语，动词think和主语everyone之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词thinking。
