题目分析:题目主要考查学生对形容词、副词、指示代词、冠词、介词、连词、时态、动词短语等的掌握情况和对上下文的把握。
小题1:考查形容词作状语。根据and前后表并列,upset是形容词可知,横线处填形容词,且修饰人,故填annoyed。
小题2:考查介词。the teacher told them both to stay. School老师让他们放学后留下,故填after。
小题3:考查并列连词。the teacher did not know young Ford’s genius但是,老师不知道Ford的天赋,故填But。
小题4:考查冠词。上文出现过的事物,再次提到时,应该使用定冠词the,故填the。
小题5:考查连接词。 things worked东西是怎样工作的,work不及物,不需要宾语,故填how。
小题6:考查指示代词。这里指代the spout,特指某物用it,故填it。
小题7:考查时态。宾语从句的时态与主句保持一致,根据waited可知,宾语从句应该使用过去将来时,故填would happen。
小题8:考查动词短语。turn into/to变成,水变成了蒸汽,故填to/into。
小题9:考查副词。ford伤得很重,修饰形容词injured应该使用副词,故填badly。
小题10:考查指示代词。这里指代上一句的“a horseless carriage”,泛指可数名词中的一个,用one,故填one。
