【分析】
这是一篇介绍意大利彩色特色岛屿Burano的说明文类完形填空,解题时可以按照三步法思考:1. 先通读全文,理清文章主线:先介绍该岛受游客欢迎,再描述岛上色彩鲜亮的房屋景观,接着说明当地房屋刷色的相关规定,最后讲解彩色房屋的历史由来。2. 逐空解题时优先结合平时积累的固定短语判断,比如be popular with这类固定搭配可以直接锁定答案;剩余题目全部在前后文找线索呼应,比如后文多次出现的house、paint your house等表述,都能给前面的空提供提示,同时结合词义辨析排除不符合语境的选项。3. 全部选完后代入全文通读验证,确保逻辑通顺没有矛盾。
【解析】
1. 考查固定搭配,be popular with是固定短语,意为“受……欢迎”,此处指岛屿受到世界各地游客的喜爱,选C。
2. 考查动词词义辨析,前文提到该岛知名度高很受欢迎,因此很多游客有空时会选择来这里游览,act行动、hate讨厌、mind介意均不符合语境,选B。
3. 考查名词词义辨析,根据后文“Every house is beautiful”的明确提示,此处描述的是岛上大量色彩鲜亮的房屋,选C。
4. 考查动词词义辨析,前一句提到“When you are walking here”,对应此处你会感觉自己正漫步在童话世界中,climb攀爬、jump跳跃、fall掉落均不符合语境,选A。
5. 考查动词短语辨析,句意为每栋房子都十分美观,看起来像一座城堡,look around环顾、look up查阅/向上看、look after照顾均不符合语义,look like意为“看起来像”,选D。
6. 考查动词词义辨析,后文多次出现“paint your house”的相关表述,此处指当地人可以给房屋刷上鲜亮的颜色,选C。
7. 考查动词词义辨析,后文提到刷房前需要征得政府同意,说明所有房屋都必须遵循特殊的色彩式样,lose丢失、forget忘记、point指向均不符合语境,follow意为“遵循、遵守”,选B。
8. 考查连词词义辨析,按照行为逻辑,在给房屋刷漆之前,你必须先咨询政府,after在……之后、while当……时、until直到均不符合逻辑,选B。
9. 考查动词词义辨析,此处指政府会告诉你你可以使用的特定颜色,tell sb. sth.是固定用法,意为“告诉某人某事”,say后接具体说话内容、speak后接语言、talk为不及物动词,均不符合搭配,选C。
10. 考查名词词义辨析,后文举例说明不能和邻居家选相同的颜色,这是当地的相关规定,lesson课程、prize奖品、meaning含义均不符合语义,选B。
11. 考查动词词义辨析,句意为如果邻居的房子是红色,政府不会允许你把自己的房子刷成红色,allow sb. to do sth.意为“允许某人做某事”,make后接不带to的不定式、drive驾驶、think认为均不符合搭配和语境,选A。
12. 考查名词词义辨析,前文提到不能和邻居选相同的红色,因此你必须选择一个不同的颜色,size尺寸、shape形状、kind种类均不符合语境,选B。
13. 考查代词词义辨析,主语是the local people(当地人),对应修饰房屋的形容词性物主代词是their(他们的),选D。
14. 考查形容词词义辨析,全文多次提到岛上房屋是鲜亮的色彩,此处指过去渔民把房子刷成明亮的颜色,dark昏暗的、heavy沉重的、light浅淡的均不符合语境,选C。
15. 考查副词词义辨析,把房子刷成亮色的目的是渔民在雾中也能清晰地看到自己的房子,hardly几乎不、loudly大声地、quietly安静地均不符合语义,选C。
