50.times這是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者學(xué)校的一個傳統(tǒng)。臨近高考時，較低年級的高一和高二所有學(xué)生聚在教學(xué)樓前，向站在樓上的高三學(xué)生鼓勵加油。直到作者親自參加這項活動，才明白了它的真正意思。【41題詳解】考查比較級。句意：較低年級的高一和高二所有學(xué)生聚在教學(xué)樓前，向站在樓上的高三學(xué)生鼓勵加油。根據(jù)fromSenior1toSenior2,可知這里指的是較低年級，用比較級，所以填lower。【42題詳解】考查副詞。句意：直到我親自參加這項活動，我才明白了它的真正意思。該空修飾動詞短語tookpartin，用副詞，所以填personally。【43題詳解】考查名詞。句意：直到我親自參加這項活動，我才明白了它的真正意思。該空作understood的賓語，用名詞，所以填meaning。【44題詳解】考查介詞。句意：在那個特殊的晚上，所有的高三學(xué)生站在走廊里，看著下面低年級的學(xué)生。文中表示“在那個特殊的晚上”，用介詞on。【45題詳解】考查形容詞。該空修飾名詞cheers，應(yīng)該用形容詞，所以填Various。【46題詳解】考查非謂語動詞。see的邏輯主語是I，它們之間是主動關(guān)系，所以用現(xiàn)在分詞作時間狀語，填Seeing。【47題詳解】考查冠詞。句意：我想到了一個著名的格言。泛指“一個著名的格言”，famous的首字母發(fā)音是輔音，所以填不定冠詞a。【48題詳解】考查不定式。句意：很快輪到我，被以這種方式祝福，這也意味著我將和學(xué)校說再見。“輪到我”和“祝福”之間是被動關(guān)系，用不定式的被動式，所以填beblessed。【49題詳解】考查非限制性定語從句。句意：很快輪到我，被以這種方式祝福，這也意味著我將和學(xué)校說再見。___9___alsomeansIwillhavetosaygoodbyetomyschool.作定語，修飾前面的句子，有逗號把主從句分開，所以___9___alsomeansIwillhavetosaygoodbyetomyschool.是一個非限制性定語從句，關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語，指代整個主句內(nèi)容，所以填which。【50題詳解】考查固定結(jié)構(gòu)。句意：盡管傷心，但是被這么多同學(xué)祝福，它將是我生命中最燦爛的時光之一。oneof+可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)，表示“…之一”，該結(jié)構(gòu)是固定結(jié)構(gòu)，所以填times。20.ItseemsthateverytimeIhavecartroubleontheroad,nooneeverstopstosee76.________I’mOK.Butonetime,someonedidstoptohelpme.
