【考点】N6:语法填空.
【分析】文章讲述了好心情对于健康的影响,越快乐心情越轻松的人更容易保持年轻.【解答】1.havelearned.考查时态,根据前面的inthepast30years,可知是段时间,应该使用现在完成时态,故填havelearned.
2.abandoning.考查非谓语,therebe句型中,is是动词,所以后面使用现在分词,放弃你喜欢的东西没有意义,故填abandoning.
3.quit.考查动词,when引导的时间状语从句,quit是主句谓语动词,与manage并列,故填quit.
4.togrow.考查不定式,causesbtodosth:使某人做某事,故
填togrow.
5.so.考查连词,所以你就老的更快,表示递进,故填so.6.which.考查连词,which指代yourbloodvesselbecomingnarrower,在定语从句中做主语,故填关系代词which.
7.what.考查连词,what引导的宾语从句,因为从句中缺少主语,故填what.8.Given/Havingbeengiven.考查非谓语,thewomen与give之间是动宾关系,所以使用过去分词作状语,故填Given/Havingbeengiven.
9.those.考查代词,those指代那些人,在定语从句中做主语,故填those.
10.without.考查介词,不需要抚养残疾孩子的女性,结合句意以及后面的raising,可知填without.
【点评】对于语法填空这类题,一是懂得分析句子结构,二是知道充当各个句子成分的词类或词性,从语法上确定答案,当然,对于某些固定搭配也要牢记,在平时的学习中要多积累这些词汇或短语,对于句子使用的时态语态也要通过语境进行确定.2.(15分)
