2句意:很多人相信法國人開始的愚人節(jié)。start開始,是一個動詞。根據(jù)這一段的內(nèi)容可知,這里介紹的是愚人節(jié)的起源,用的是一般過去時態(tài),故這里應(yīng)填過去式started。

3句意:幾個世紀之前,歐洲的新年是41日。century世紀,是一個名詞。根據(jù)下文In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles of France…可知,這里表示“很久之前”,故用名詞的復(fù)數(shù)centuries。

4句意:一些人不喜歡,他們選擇保持41日這一天作為新年。keep保持,是一個動詞。空前choose的意思是“選擇”,常用于句型choose to do sth.選擇去做某事,故這里填動詞不定式形式to keep。

5句意:隨著時間的推移,41日在法國變成了一個享受樂趣的日子。over可以作介詞或副詞,意思比較多。這里考查的是固定短語over time“隨著時間的過去”。

6句意:然后它傳到了英格蘭和蘇格蘭,后來傳到了北美洲。spread傳播,蔓延, 是一個動詞。這一段介紹的是愚人節(jié)的起源,使用了一般過去時態(tài),故這里應(yīng)填過去式。spread的過去式與原形一樣。

7句意:例如,在美國,一個人會把朋友的鬧鐘向前撥一個小時,或者用鹽來換糖。ahead向前。根據(jù)文意可知,這里是舉例說明愚人節(jié)的把戲,結(jié)合句意可知,這里應(yīng)表達的是“把鬧鐘向前撥一個小時”,故應(yīng)填ahead。

8句意:在這一天,人們可能會悄悄地在一個人的后背或后面放一個標牌,寫著“踢我”。根據(jù)句意可知,這里說的是愚人節(jié)的時候人們捉弄別人的把戲,所以應(yīng)“悄悄地放”,不能讓對方知道。secret是名詞,這里需要填副詞形式,修飾動詞put。故填secretly。

9句意:在這一天,人們可能會悄悄地在一個人的后背或后面放一個標牌,寫著“踢我”。根據(jù)句意可知,這里說的是愚人節(jié)的時候人們捉弄別人的把戲,因此這個標牌應(yīng)放在一個人的后背上,故應(yīng)填back,是一個名詞,“后背”。

10句意:笑話會帶來很多的笑聲,很多人都大喊:“四月傻瓜!”laugh笑,是一個動詞。空前a lot of是來修飾名詞的,故這里填名詞形式laughter。

【題目】Read the passage carefully and answer the questions according what you’ve read.

In most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters. The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back.

Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can't stop playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick controls and constantly pressing buttons marked” fire”. They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play so that the pains have no chance to cure properly. The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: The muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed (發(fā)炎的)and swollen that they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call "Space Warrior's Wrist". Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.

Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently in the British Medical Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness (暈倒) and fell to the floor.

Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.
