(2019·貴州省遵義航天高級中學(xué)高三四模)Generally speaking, joy __1__(express) by laughter. But as it turns out, it reveals a lot more than the fact __2__ you are happy. It enables listeners, even those who cannot observe you, __3__ (realize) if you are having a good time with a close friend or laughing __4__ (polite) with a complete stranger.
At least, this is the conclusion __5__ (reach) by a team of scientists led by Greg Bryant, __6__ assistant professor of Communication Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. The researchers began by __7__ (request) volunteers from across the world to send them audio clips (音頻短片) of people laughing. The 48 tapes they received __8__ (range) from recent recordings of laughter between two college friends __9__ ones from conversations made ten years ago. The clips also had all possible __10__ (combine)—communications between friends, strangers, all-male groups, all-female groups, etc.

篇章導(dǎo)讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章說明笑聲在全世界表達的意義相近。
1.is expressed 考查動詞的語態(tài)。句意:一般來說,快樂是通過笑聲來表達的。本句表述一般性事實,故用一般現(xiàn)在時,主語joy與動詞express為被動關(guān)系。故填is expressed。
2.that 考查同位語從句的連接詞。句意:但事實證明,笑聲揭示的不僅僅是你快樂的事實。fact后接同位語從句進一步說明fact的詳細內(nèi)容,同位語從句句子成分語意完整,所以用連接詞that。
3.to realize 考查非謂語動詞。句意:它讓聽眾,甚至那些看不到你的人,意識到你是和一個親密的朋友玩得開心,還是對一個完全陌生的人禮貌地笑。enable sb. to do sth.“使某人能夠做某事”。故填to realize。
4.politely 考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。應(yīng)用副詞修飾動詞laughing。故填politely。
5.reached 考查非謂語動詞。句意:至少,這是由洛杉磯加州大學(xué)傳播學(xué)一名助理教授格雷格·布萊恩特領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的一個科學(xué)家團隊得出的結(jié)論。conclusion與reach在邏輯上是被動關(guān)系,所以用過去分詞作后置定語。故填reached。
6.an 考查冠詞。assistant professor為可數(shù)名詞,且assistant首字母的發(fā)音為元音音素。故填an。
7.requesting 考查非謂語動詞。句意:研究人員首先要求來自世界各地的志愿者給他們發(fā)送人們發(fā)笑的音頻短片。by doing sth. “通過做某事”。故填requesting。
8.ranged 考查動詞的時態(tài)。描述過去發(fā)生的動作且在句中作謂語,句子用一般過去時。故填ranged。
9.to 考查介詞。句意:他們收到的48盤磁帶從最近兩個大學(xué)朋友之間的笑聲錄音到十年前的對話錄音不等。range from ... to ... “范圍從……到……”為固定短語。故填to。
10.combinations 考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換。possible形容詞修飾名詞combination,且根據(jù)句意,可知這些短片有很多組合。故填combinations。
Ⅳ.短文改錯
(2019·合肥市高三調(diào)研性測試)Our class organized visit to the Joy Nursing Home, that is next to our school, last Sunday. On our arrival, we begin to help the senior people do the cleaning.

答案:

難項分析:
第三處:begin→began 考查動詞的時態(tài)。由上文中的“l(fā)ast Sunday”可知,事情發(fā)生在過去,故用一般過去時。
第六處:amusing→amused 考查形容詞。amused意為“感到有趣的”,一般形容人,而amusing意為“逗人發(fā)笑的”,一般修飾物。故把amusing改為amused。
第七處:such→so 考查副詞。so/such ... that ... 意為“如此……以至于……”,so修飾形容詞、副詞,而such修飾名詞。此處修飾lost,故用副詞so。
