【分析】
做这篇语法填空首先要先通读全文,理清文章是讲述Lukas独自徒步失踪后成功获救的记叙文,整体故事基调为过去时态,再结合每个空格前后的搭配、句子成分、上下文逻辑逐一推导答案:
1. 看到空前的动词enjoy,立刻回忆enjoy的固定用法,后面要接动名词作宾语;
2. 前文提到一家人经常徒步,句首出现转折词But,说明发生的不是平常的事,要把usual改成否定含义的反义词;
3. 空前的got是系动词,后面需要接形容词作表语,表达家人的状态;
4. 空后是Day,结合语境是父亲节,要使用名词所有格的专有名词表达;
5. 空前是be动词was,后面接形容词构成固定搭配表示“迷路”;
6. 全文描述过去发生的事件,谓语动词要使用一般过去式;
7. 空前的and连接并列的谓语,要和前面的used时态保持一致,用过去式;
8. 空格位于句首,是句子的主语位置,动词不能直接作主语,要变成动名词形式;
9. 主语是不定代词everyone,谓语动词用单数,结合全文过去时态选择对应的be动词形式;
10. 句末的forever表示动作是将来要发生的,表达“会永远记住”的含义,用一般将来时。
【解析】
1. 考查固定搭配enjoy doing sth.,意为“喜欢做某事”,因此动词hike变为动名词形式hiking。
2. 考查词性转换,前文说明一家人多次徒步是很平常的经历,转折词But提示发生了不寻常的事,usual的反义词为unusual。
3. 考查词性转换,get为系动词,后接形容词作表语,worry的形容词形式worried,意为“担忧的”,get worried表示“变得担忧”。
4. 考查名词所有格,“父亲节”的固定专有表达为Father's Day,因此填Father's。
5. 考查固定短语be lost,意为“迷路、走丢”,此处用形容词lost作表语。
6. 考查动词时态,全文描述过去发生的故事,使用一般过去时,hear的过去式为heard。
7. 考查动词时态,and连接并列谓语,和前面的谓语动词used保持时态一致,用一般过去时,bring的过去式为brought。
8. 考查非谓语动词,此处作句子的主语,需要将动词stay变为动名词形式Staying,句首首字母大写。
9. 考查动词时态和主谓一致,主语everyone是不定代词,作主语时谓语动词用单数,结合全文过去时态,be动词用was。
10. 考查动词时态,句中forever表示动作将在未来持续发生,表达“我会永远记住这件事”,用一般将来时will remember。
【答案】
1. hiking 2. unusual 3. worried 4. Father's 5. lost
6. heard 7. brought 8. Staying 9. was 10. will remember
【知识点】
固定搭配,动词时态,词性转换
【点评】
本题选取记叙文语境考查初中英语核心语法点,难度适中,既需要学生熟练掌握各类固定短语、时态规则,也需要结合上下文的逻辑转折判断词义变形,提醒学生做这类语法填空时要先通读全文把握整体故事的时态基调,再逐个分析空格的句子成分,注意专有名词大写这类细节易错点。
