Question

【題目】閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

It seems that Chinese people have always loved to discuss 【1】 differences between northerners and southerners. Now, another difference has drawn wide attention: the way northerners and southerners shop 【2】 food at markets.

People from southern China normally buy 【3】 they need for just one or two meals at a time. It’s normal for them to buy just half a Chinese cabbage, two 【4】 (potato) and 25 grams of beef at a time. 【5】, a person may be laughed at if they do this in the north. Instead, buying enough vegetables and meat for a week 【6】 (be) normal.

The different could be because of the different climates. Food can 【7】 (keep) for a long time in the north, as it’s 【8】 (usual) cold and dry there. Many northerners have the habit of 【9】 (store) food for a long time. But due to the hot and wet weather in the south, southern Chinese people prefer 【10】 (buy) just enough food for one meal or one day. Otherwise, the food may go bad.

Maybe these debates about different customs help us to understand each other better.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。主要介紹了南方人和北方人在購買食物的習(xí)慣上的差異。

【1】考查冠詞。句意：中國人似乎一直喜歡討論北方人和南方人之間的差異。此處用定冠詞the放在名詞difference前表示特指“北方人和南方人之間的差異”，故填the。

【2】考查介詞。句意：北方人和南方人在市場買食物的方式。固定短語：shop for（購買……），此處的名詞food作介詞for的賓語，故填for。

【3】考查連詞。此處可用連語what引導(dǎo)賓語從句，作主句謂語動詞buy的賓語，what在從句中作need的賓語；也可以填things，作主句動詞buy的賓語，后邊they need for just one or two meals at a time.就是定語從句，引導(dǎo)詞可以是that/which，因?yàn)樵趶木渲凶髻e語，所以省略了。故填what/things。

【4】考查名詞。名詞potato（土豆）是可數(shù)名詞，前邊有two修飾，所以要用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填potatoes。

【5】考查副詞。句意：他們一次只買半顆大白菜、兩個(gè)土豆和二十五克牛肉是正常的。然而，在北方，你要是這樣做是要被嘲笑的。前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故填However。

【6】考查主謂一致。此句是動名詞短語作主語，謂語動詞要用第三人稱單數(shù)形式，故填is。

【7】考查被動語態(tài)。句意：在北方，食物可以被保存很長時(shí)間。要用被動語態(tài)：情態(tài)動詞+be done，故填be kept。

【8】考查副詞。句意：因?yàn)槟抢锾鞖馔ǔＪ呛芾涞�。副詞usually（通常地）作狀語，故填usually。

【9】考查動名詞。此處要用動名詞storing短語作介詞of的賓語，故填storing。

【10】考查動詞的固定結(jié)構(gòu)。固定結(jié)構(gòu)：prefer to do sth.或者prefer doing sth.（喜歡做某事），故填to buy/buying。
