【解析】

試題分析：本文是一英語(yǔ)小故事。一個(gè)沒(méi)有郵箱和電腦的人建立自自己的零售帝國(guó)。

1. 考查時(shí)態(tài)。這里應(yīng)填謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的過(guò)去時(shí)，HR manager: 人力資源部經(jīng)理。

2. 考查連詞�！癉o sth., and sb./sth. will…”是一個(gè)常見(jiàn)句型，例如：Use your head, and you’ll find a way.

【小題3 】neither /nor /or 考查固定句型。若上句是否定句，則后一句常用neither或nor表示“也不，也沒(méi)有”。 另外，在否定句中的并列連詞不用and多用or。

3. 考查主語(yǔ)從句。在這里作主語(yǔ)引導(dǎo)主語(yǔ)從句，整句意思是“凡是不存在的人都不能擁有這份工作。”

4. 考查介詞。with no hope at all= without any hope: 不懷任何希望。

5. 考查動(dòng)詞。此處缺少謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞故用success的動(dòng)詞形式succeeded。

6. 考查形容詞最高級(jí)。這里應(yīng)該用形容詞的最高級(jí)形式，在one of the + 形容詞+名詞的結(jié)構(gòu)里，形容詞應(yīng)是最高級(jí)形式，例如：She is one of the most diligent students in our class.

7. 考查冠詞。Insurance是以元音音素/i/開頭的單詞，故用an。an insurance broker：一個(gè)保險(xiǎn)經(jīng)紀(jì)人

8. 考查副詞。這里應(yīng)填副詞作狀語(yǔ)修飾動(dòng)詞replied。

9. 考查賓語(yǔ)從句。引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句，在從句中作have been的表語(yǔ)。整個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句用了虛擬語(yǔ)氣，意思是：“要是你有email，那你又該成了什么樣的人哪？”
