这是一篇科普类文章，要求选填的词汇都是浅显易懂的常用词，且都是《大纲》范围内的词汇。因此，学生要通读全文，了解大意。只要能够理解文章上下的内容，对短文语境中有用的信息进行分析、推敲、结合整篇，就可以确定所需词汇。值得注意的是，题目提供的词中有两组形容词、副词的同根词，这就要求我们既要明白文章的意思，还得善用所学的综合知识。

第1题选good。依句型这里需要形容词，看全文应是“好”。

第2题选two。文章一开始就说，我们虽然不能阻止地震，但可以采取措施减少地震对城市的破坏程度。

如果那样的话，那么在地球板块与板块交界的地方建造房屋肯定不是好办法。（这是一个跨学科的问题，世界上已经发生的地震多数发生在地球板块与板块交界的地方，科学家们称之为地震带。

由此可见，要学好英语，还要学好其他学科。）

第3题选 may。在这里表示猜测、假设，意思是“可能”。

第4题选 sand 。“沙地”与前面的rocks 一词对应。这句话是说，如果你认为某个地方可能要发生地震，最好是将房屋建筑在地质比较坚硬的地带，而不能建在地质松的地带。比如像沙漠这样的地带就不能建造房屋。

第5题选strong 。除地质条件外，将房屋建得strong“牢固”些，也是减轻地震灾害的一项重要措施。第6题选stay up 。在这里是“站立、矗立”的意思，与前面的 fall down 一词相对应。

第7题选afraid。因为旧金山这个城市就建在太平洋板块与美洲大陆板块交界的地带（环太平洋地震带），所以说科学家们感到担心、害怕。

第8题选houses。科学家们之所以感到担心和害怕，是因为那里的人还在那里建造房屋，这正好与前面说的减轻地震灾害的方法相反。

第9题选now 。与前面的1906年相对比。

第10题选if 。文章最后小结提出假设：旧金山如果依旧那样的话，一旦有一天发生地震，后果将不堪设想。

Mr. Brown had an umbrella shop in a small town. People sometimes 1 ________ him broken umbrellas, and then he took them to a big shop in London . They were 2 ________ there. One day Mr. Brown went to London by train. He 3 ________ to take an umbrella with him that day. Sitting in front of him was a man with an umbrella standing 4 _______ the seat. When the train arrived in London , Mr. Brown 5 ________ up the umbrella as he often did during his journey by train. Just as he was getting off, he was 6 ________ by the man.

He said angrily, “That’s7________ !” Mr. Brown’ s face turned red and he gave it back to the man at once.

When Mr Brown got to the big shop, the shopkeeper had got his six umbrellas ready. After a good look at 8 ________ of them, he said, “You’ve mended them very well.”

In the afternoon he got into the train again. The 9 ________ man was in the same seat. He looked at Mr Brown and his six umbrellas, “You’ve had a 10 ________ day,” he said.

1.brought

2.mended

3. forgot

4. beside

5.picked

6. stopped

7. mine

8.each

9. same 10. lucky 【剖析】这是一篇伞店老板Mr Brown在火车上发生的故事，是叙述类文章。要求填的词汇都是《大纲》

范围内的词汇，因此难度不是很大。学生应在短文语境中对有用的信息进行推敲，结合整篇文章的内容，确定所需词汇。通读全文，了解大意。再读全文，确定所需词的词义、词性和词形。

第1题需要动词，因为该句无谓语，意思是“带来”或“给”，所以选brought。

第2题需要动词，由于该句是被动语态，意思是“被修理”，选mended。

第3题为动词，由空前主语和空后的动词不定式决定，根据下文判断意思是“忘记”，选forgot。

第4题选介词。由语境决定的，意思是“在座位旁边”，选beside。

第5题选动词，意思是“拾起”，恰好是词组pick up,故事发生在过去，所以选picked。

第6题选动词，由于句子是被动语态，选stopped。

第7题选名词性物主代词，由于句子是主系表结构，意思是“我的”，选mine。

第8题选代词，由后面的of结构决定的，指“每一”或者“全部”，选词中没有提供all；所以选each 。第9题选形容词，由于它修饰的是名词，指“相同的”，选same。

第10题选形容词，由于它修饰的是名词，指“幸运的或好的”，选lucky。

9.do 10. eaten 1．此题选called 。根据第一段讲的“一个农夫在河对岸看到一个老人在种什么东西”推理，当他

想问河对岸这位老人在种什么时，就得大声喊“called out”。

2．这题选didn’t speak。因为从下文可知这位老人并没有立刻回答。

3．这里需要并列连词，选 and。由上文得知老人没有急于回答，而是让他游过来，再告诉他。

4．利用排除法，结合上下文的意思，可知此题选 idea。

5．从上下文的意思及句子结构，可知此题选 what。

6．从后面的in his ear ,可知说话的声音应该是悄悄地, 所以选 quietly。

7．从上下文可判断应是在garden里种东西。

8．从这个农夫前一句话有 shouted 一词也知后面为“听”的意思，表示听的结果应为heard。

9．根据上下文的意思，“我不能那样做”选 do 。
