問題詳情:
Kids born in this century probably don’t know ___61__ a “cassette” is. After all, when you have a smartphone/MP3 player, who needs a cassette to listen to music?
And gone with the cassette tapes ___62__ (be) the English word “cassette” itself. ____63___ (certain), our vocabulary is being influenced by the changing world all the time.
A changing vocabulary is ___64___ (confuse) but may also be a good thing. Just imagine, if English hadn’t changed since ___65___ 1940s, we wouldn’t have words to refer ___66___ computers, flash drives or iPads.
But as new words keep coming, old words also disappear from our conversations.
According to The Guardian, examples of words no longer in use include “gosh” and “gee”----polite replacements of “god” and “Jesus”. They were used ___67___ (express) shock, but not any more since religious vocabulary is having a smaller influence in our modern lives. Words like “crossword” and “fax machine” are also less seen now with the ___68__ (disappear) of the actual things that they mean.
But the research also found that not all old-fashioned words are dying. Some stick around. For example, we still use “steering-wheel(方向盤)” today, over 100 years after the first car was invented. It may be a long time ____69___ we’re all used to driverless vehicles.
But who knows, some of the words that you can’t stop ___70___ (say) every day now may soon become part of history, while some may have a long life ahead of them.
【回答】
61. what. 此處為動詞know後賓語從句, 由於從句中缺少表語,故用what
62. is. 本題考查主謂一致。Gone with the cassette tapes 是表語,be動詞作謂語,主語是後面的the English word “cassette” itself, 故用一般現在時態的第三人稱單數is.
63. Certainly. 本題考查副詞。修飾整個句子用副詞。
64. confusing. 本題考查非謂語形式。confuse (vt.) “使困惑”, 此處作表語,修飾主語a changing world, 故用confusing 表“令人困惑的”.
65. the. 年代前必須用定冠詞。
66. to. 本題考查固定短語中所搭配的介詞。 refer to…. “指代,指的是”
67. to express. 本題考查非謂語。 be used to do… “被用來做某事”, be used to doing “習慣做某事”, used to do “過去常常做某事”。
68. disappearance 本題考查動詞變名詞。
69. before. 本題考查狀語從句。 “It may be a long time before +主語+ 謂語 + 其他”意思是“可能要過很久才……”
70. saying. 本題考查非謂語。 stop doing “停止做某事”; stop to do “停下來做謀事”
