【解析】

这篇短文给我们介绍的是愚人节,在北美和欧洲的部分国家,每年的41日是愚人节。在这一天人们可以互相开玩笑,这是一个充满欢笑的日子。

1句意:在一些国家有一个捉弄别人的节日。special特殊的,是一个形容词,作定语,修饰后面的名词day。

2句意:很多人相信法国人开始的愚人节。start开始,是一个动词。根据这一段的内容可知,这里介绍的是愚人节的起源,用的是一般过去时态,故这里应填过去式started。

3句意:几个世纪之前,欧洲的新年是41日。century世纪,是一个名词。根据下文In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles of France…可知,这里表示“很久之前”,故用名词的复数centuries。

4句意:一些人不喜欢,他们选择保持41日这一天作为新年。keep保持,是一个动词。空前choose的意思是“选择”,常用于句型choose to do sth.选择去做某事,故这里填动词不定式形式to keep。

5句意:随着时间的推移,41日在法国变成了一个享受乐趣的日子。over可以作介词或副词,意思比较多。这里考查的是固定短语over time“随着时间的过去”。

6句意:然后它传到了英格兰和苏格兰,后来传到了北美洲。spread传播,蔓延, 是一个动词。这一段介绍的是愚人节的起源,使用了一般过去时态,故这里应填过去式。spread的过去式与原形一样。

7句意:例如,在美国,一个人会把朋友的闹钟向前拨一个小时,或者用盐来换糖。ahead向前。根据文意可知,这里是举例说明愚人节的把戏,结合句意可知,这里应表达的是“把闹钟向前拨一个小时”,故应填ahead。

8句意:在这一天,人们可能会悄悄地在一个人的后背或后面放一个标牌,写着“踢我”。根据句意可知,这里说的是愚人节的时候人们捉弄别人的把戏,所以应“悄悄地放”,不能让对方知道。secret是名词,这里需要填副词形式,修饰动词put。故填secretly。

9句意:在这一天,人们可能会悄悄地在一个人的后背或后面放一个标牌,写着“踢我”。根据句意可知,这里说的是愚人节的时候人们捉弄别人的把戏,因此这个标牌应放在一个人的后背上,故应填back,是一个名词,“后背”。

10句意:笑话会带来很多的笑声,很多人都大喊:“四月傻瓜!”laugh笑,是一个动词。空前a lot of是来修饰名词的,故这里填名词形式laughter。

这篇短文给我们介绍了愚人节的起源和庆祝的方式。文章主题明确,内容贴近学生们的日常生活,比较容易理解。题型是选择适当的单词,并用正确的形式补全短文。短文前给出了12个单词,短文中有10个空,有两个单词的多余的。做题时,应先浏览所给单词,弄清楚他们的意思;然后通读短文,掌握大意;根据文章的意思,选择适当的单词,并结合全文使用的时态、单词在句中的作用等,使用单词的正确形式。例如第3小题,根据下文In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles of France…可知,这里表示“很久之前”,应用century这个单词,意思是“世纪”,表示很多个世纪之前,应用名词的复数centuries。再如第8小题,根据句意可知,这里说的是愚人节的时候人们捉弄别人的把戏,所以应“悄悄地放”,不能让对方知道。secret是名词,这里需要填副词形式,修饰动词put,故填secretly。

【题目】Read the passage carefully and answer the questions according what you’ve read.

In most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters. The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back.

Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can't stop playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick controls and constantly pressing buttons marked” fire”. They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play so that the pains have no chance to cure properly. The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: The muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed (发炎的)and swollen that they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call "Space Warrior's Wrist". Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.

Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently in the British Medical Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness (晕倒) and fell to the floor.

Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.
