Dear Xiaohua,
I’m very glad to receive your letter. From your letter I know you have shown 小题1:______ great interest in inventing new things. That’s great. As for how to be an inventor, there is no quick answer to 小题2:______.
Coming from different cultures and having different backgrounds, inventors don’t seem to have much 小题3:______ common. But creative thinking, 小题4:_______ is greatly valued, is perhaps the basic skill an inventor should have. In order to explore new possibilities, you will have to learn to break小题5:______ from old thought patterns. When you get stuck, try to look at the problem in 小题6:____ many ways as possible. Each new way may improve your understanding.
More importantly, always keep it in mind 小题7:______ success is no accident. It is the result of a long process of trial and error. Above 小题8:_____, the main task for you is to study hard and try to learn more knowledge. This, of course, will lay a solid foundation.
Hope your future invention will make a difference.
Good luck!
Yours,
Wang Li
小题1: a
小题2:it
小题3:in
小题4: which
小题5: away
小题6:as
小题7: that
小题8: all
题目分析：
小题1: a 固定搭配show interests in/show a great interest in…对…表示出兴趣。
小题2:it 这里的it就是指前句的how to be an inventor。
小题3:in 固定搭配have sth in commom有共同之处。
小题4: which 本句是一个定语从句，which指代前面的先行词creative things在句中做主语。
小题5: away 固定搭配break away from…摆脱；你要学会摆脱就的思维模式。
小题6: as 固定搭配as…as…；用尽可能多的方法来看待问题。
小题7: that 这里的it是形式宾语，真正的宾语从句是后面的that引导的宾语从句。That在宾语从句中不充当任何成分，只起引导作用。
小题8: all 固定搭配。Above all首先，最重要的是。
点评：答题中注意句子中人称和数是否一致，时态是否一致。各种词性之间的区别以及一些常用句型，固定短语的应用。一般的这类题型不会出现太复杂的单词和句子，这类题型考查的就是我们的基础知识。平时应注重积累，熟记一些句型及惯用结构。
