Question

课文语法填空

Until last year, I was trying to look like the slim girls on TV even though I knew that it was 1. (possible). To lose weight, I tried every new diet I read about online. I tried no-fat, low-fat, 5:2, only bananas, no bananas-I almost 2. (go) mad.

Then an article changed me. It said instead of asking “Am I fat?” I should be asking “Am I fit?” I didn’t know a letter could make such a 3. (different)! Then I started thinking about fitness rather than weight. I didn’t say that I wanted to lose three kilos. Instead, I would say I wanted to run two kilometres in eight 4. (minute) or I wanted to be able to do 30 push-ups. I preferred 5. (add) healthy foods to my meals rather than cut 6.the foods I enjoyed. I still had a burger now 7. then, but I would add a salad or an apple.

Finally, I stopped 8. (compare) myself with actresses and models and looking for things that were wrong with my face or body. Instead, I made a list of the things I liked about 9. (I). I became more positive about myself and my body. As 10. result, I became both happier and healthier.

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一开始我把自己与女演员和模特比较，并寻找我的脸部或身体有问题的地方使自己看起来像电视上的苗条女孩，为此，我尝试了网上的饮食疗法。在快要受不了的时候，一篇文章改变了我。我将健康食品作为我的餐食，而且加强运动果。最后，我停止了与女演员和模特的比较。不再寻找我的脸部或身体有问题的地方。我的人生态度变得更加积极，我从而变得更加健康和快乐。

1.考查形容词。句意：直到去年，我一直在努力（让自己）看起来像电视上的苗条女孩，尽管我知道这是不可能的。根据even though所表示的转折含义可知，看起来像电视上的苗条女孩是不可能的。再根据空前的was可知填形容词impossible。故填impossible。

2.考查动词时态。句意：我尝试了无脂肪、低脂肪、5:2饮食法、只吃香蕉、不吃香蕉——我几乎要疯了。文章介绍过去发生的事情，所以用一般过去时。故填went。

3.考查名词。句意：我不知道一个字母能够产生如此大的影响！固定短语：make a difference有作用或影响。故填difference。

4.考查名词的数。句意：相反，我会说我想在8分钟内跑2公里，或者我想做30个俯卧撑。eight后面接名词的复数形式。故填minutes。

5.考查不定式。句意：我宁愿在膳食中添加健康食品，而不是停止食用我喜欢的食物。固定短语：prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.宁愿做某事也不做另一件事。故填to add。

6.考查固定短语。句意：我宁愿在膳食中添加健康食品，而不是停止食用我喜欢的食物。固定短语：cut out停止，cut out the foods I enjoyed在文中意为“不再吃喜欢的食物”。故填out。

7.考查连词。句意：我仍然偶尔吃个汉堡，但我会加一份沙拉或一个苹果。固定短语：now and then时而，偶尔。故填and。

8.考查动名词。句意：最后，我不再拿自己和女演员、模特做比较，也不再寻找我的脸或身体的问题。根据句意可知此处是stop doing sth.，表示“停止做某事”。 故填comparing。

9.考查代词。句意：相反，我列出了一份我喜欢自己哪些地方的清单。句子主语是I，所以介词about后用反身代词myself。故填myself。

10.考查冠词。句意：结果，我变得更加快乐和健康了。固定短语：as a result结果。故填a。
