Ⅱ.語法填空

9.on   be based on依據，根據。

10. it用it特指前文的red。

11.angry系動詞后要接形容詞作表語。

12.are called   句子主語the small hot-tasting peppers與call之間是被動關系，結合語境時態(tài)可知填are called.

13. especially他們的音樂可以說是勁爆，尤其是那種被稱為Dixie?land jazz, especially ac?". 特別，尤其。

14.lighter   粉紅色是一種淡紅色。故填lighter,

15. when當人們身體健康時會說紅光滿面。用when引導時間狀語從句。

16.twentieth   at the beginning of the twentieth century在二十世紀

初。

17.that/which   此句是一個定語從句，先行詞a nice pink colour指物，從句缺少主語，故填that/which,

18.the美國傳統的布魯斯音樂正好與爵士樂相反。根據介詞of 可知opposite前用定冠詞表示"對立面"。
