life．【分析】本人作者叙述了自己七岁时随爷爷在水塘玩耍的一次经历．爷爷借小石子落水后形成的圆圈教育作者，每个人都会产生喜悦或愤怒的小圈圈，而这些小圈圈都会对别人产生相应的影响．所以，为了他人美好而宁静的生活，我们一定要把自己内心良好的情感和思想传播出去．这是作者一次难忘的经历，影响了作者现在的思考和行为方式．【解答】71．took．考查动词用法．根据空处处于主语my grandfather之后，故判断应填入谓语动词；根据When I was about seven years old可知此句为一般过去时态，故动词应填入其过去式；结合关键部分…me to a fish pond on a farm 结合备选词，可知此处是指我七岁的时候爷爷带我去了农场的一个池塘，故用动词take，take sb to some place，把某人带到某地，take的过去式为took．故填：took 72．by 考查介词用法．根据关键词created 为过去分词作后置定语，后跟了名词the stone，结合语境，此处应指圆圈是被石块引起的，表被动，结合备选词，应用介词by，由…造成．故填by73．that 考查定语从句用法．分析句子结构可知come from those circles 这一部分作the waves 的后置定语，所以此处为定语从句，指但是来自这些圈子的波动会打乱你周围所有人的平静，由于先行词the waves 指物，所以引导词可以用that或which，结合备选词，故用that（排除掉who）．74．seriously 考查副词用法．根据上文You may create lots of circles in your life，but the waves （73）that come from those circles will disturb（干扰）the peace of all the people around you，"你可以在你的生活中创造很多圈子，但是来自这些圈子的波动会打乱你周围所有人的平静，所以后面应是指怎样说道，很显然结合以上语境，爷爷应该是严肃地说道，由于said是动词，所以应用副词修饰，结合备选词，应用形容词serious的副词seriously"严肃地"．故填：seriously 75．lives 考查名词用法．根据关键词others'其他人的，可知此所有格后面应该跟复数名词，结合此句的语境"记住你的圈子可能会传播到其他圈子，这意味着你的思想和行为可能会干扰到别人的…"，结合备选词，很明显应该是干扰到别人的生活，故用名词life的复数lives．故填：lives76．will be sent 考查被动语态．本句是if条件状语从句，主句是the good or peace that comes from your circle （76）…to others，that comes from your circle 只是主语the good or peace 的后置定语，所以主句缺少谓语动词，含有if条件状语从句的时态遵循主将从现，所以空处应该用一般将来时will+动词原形；结合语境及备选词可知此句应是表达"如果你想，这份来自你圈子的美好或宁静将会被…给其他人"，所以应用动词send"送出"，指输送给其他人，由于主语the good or peace 为物，是谓语动词send的承受者，指被输送，故用一般将来时的被动语态will be+过去分词，send的过去分词为sent．故填：will be sent77．to influence 考查动词不定式用法．根据关键部分allow the good feelings…other，可知此处为allow的习惯用法allow…to do"允许…做某事"，所以空处应填入动词不定式；结合本句的语境"你应该拿良好的感情…别人，而不是不良的情绪，因为你对两者都负有责任，"结合备选词，显然此处应该是指影响别人，应该用动词influence 影响，此处应用其不定式形式to influence78．first 考查序数词用法．根据关键词the （78）…time 可知此处应该是强调第几次来修饰time，所以应用序数词形式；结合备选词里有基数词one，所以此处应用其序数词first，此句是指那是我第一次听到爷爷告诉我这些，符合语境．故填：first79．happiness 考查名词用法．根据关键词each person's 可知名词所有格后应该跟名词；由空白处后的or anger 可推出前面应该用anger"愤怒"的反义词表示对立面；结合备选词有形容词happy，故用其名词happiness"快乐"，此句是指：我已经意识到，每个人的快乐或愤怒都可以影响到这个世界．故填：happiness 80．them 考查代词用法．根据关键词speak，可知后面的空处应该填入名词或代词作宾语；结合前半句We spread the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside 我们都在把藏于内心深处的情感和思想传播了开来，推出后句speak的对象应该就是指藏于内心深处的情感和思想，这里的意思是"不管我们说没说（它们）"，所以此处应用代词代替the feelings and thoughts，结合备选词，应该用主格they 的宾格them作宾语．故填：them【点评】对于完形填空题目，一定要记得首先通读全文，了解文章大意，然后再根据文章关键词，关键句，掌握细节问题，并进行推理判断，并注意用所给词的正确形式填出正确答案．2．Nowadays，there are lots of left﹣behind children（留守儿童）at school，especially in the（76）poor（贫穷）areas

for her family（84）besides（除了）study．"Thanks to schools，goverments and society's help，we live（85）happily （happy）．"the girl

million；millions of．本题是6103万，应该填单数形式million．故答案为million．78．答案：lacking；考查动名词．句意为：缺少适当的照顾．分析句子成分可知，lack做主语成分，要用动名词lacking形式．动名词由"V﹣ing"构成，既有动词性质也有名词性质，可以做主语，宾语等成分．此句中就作主语．故答案为lacking．79．答案：accidents；考查名词．句意为：很多孩子遭受焦虑和事故．当可数名词在句中表达的是复数的概念时，要用名词复数形式．accident是可数名词，在此句中表复数概念，故用accidents．80．答案：not seen；考查现在完成时态．句意为：有些留守儿童已经一年多没见他们父母了．分析句子成分可知，空格前面有助动词have，后面有短语for more than a year一年多了，这些都和现在完成时搭配，并且句意表达的正是现在完成时的其中一种用法"从过去开始一直延续到现在的动作"，切合题意：孩子已经一年多没见父母了．现在完成时的动词构成：have/has+过去分词．所以应填动词过去分词．see为动词原形，其过去分词为seen．故填not seen．81．答案：lonely；考察形容词．句意为：他们感觉孤独．空格前有feel，feel 接形容词，故答案为lonely．82．答案：parents'考查名词所有格．句意为：每个孩子都需要父母的爱和照顾．分析句子成分可知，句中love and care和parents是所属关系，要填名词所有格'S．以S结尾的复数名词所有格，为了避免重复，省略后面的字母S．因此parents的名词所有格是parents'．故答案为parents'．83．答案：western；考查形容词．句意为：住在中国西部的山村里．分析句子成分可知，空格处为形容词，修饰China，故填形容词．west的形容词形式为western，故答案为western．84．答案：besides；考查介词．句意为：除了学习，她还要为家里做晚饭．"除了…"有两个介词besides和except．except 除…之外（不包含该介词的宾语在内）besides 除…之外；还有（包含该介词的宾语在内），本句小女孩不仅要学习还要做饭，所以study是包含在内的．故填besides．85．答案：happily；考查副词．句意为：我们幸福的生活着．本句中live是动词，要用副词修饰，幸福的生活着，所以要填happy的副词形式．happy的副词变化形式是happily．故答案为happily．【点评】首先要通读短文，掌握大意，特别要注意上下文之间的联系，或根据所给单词，或根据首字母提示、汉语提示或音标，选择恰当单词的恰当形式来填空，就可以确定答案．3．Charles
