Question

【题目】 I walked into a restaurant and ordered some food. After about twenty minutes, 【1】 large group of people came in and ordered theirs.

To my disappointment, the group got their food before me. I watched as they began to eat and laugh 【2】(happy). I even overheard one of them bragging（吹嘘）about how he was connected to everyone in the restaurant. Unable to take it anymore, I called the waiter over to cancel my order.

He told me, “【3】(you) is a special order. The head cook is 【4】(prepare) for it himself now. It will take more time. Please have some juice as you wait.”

I 【5】(sit) down and waited patiently. Shortly after, my meal was 【6】(serve) by six waiters. To my surprise, the 【7】 (own) of the restaurant happened to be an old friend of mine. He changed my simple food to a five-star meal 【8】free. It was one of the most expensive meals in the restaurant. The people at the other table were shocked, 【9】 (ask) why they didn’t get that kind of service and meal.

Such is life! Some people are ahead of you, talking about how they are smarter, wiser and better 【10】 you. You are working hard wondering why it’s taking so long to be rewarded(奖励) the way they have.

Don’t worry! You just have to wait a little longer because your reward is more special.

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。作者在一家餐馆吃饭，发现晚于作者到达餐馆的客人居然都早于他吃上了饭，后来才知道，这家餐馆的主人是作者失联好久的朋友，正在为他准备一顿免费的五星级大餐，这让作者很意外。

【1】

句意：大约过了二十分钟，一大群人进来，点了他们的菜。

根据“large group of people”可知此处表达“一大群人”用短语a large group of，此处是“a”，故答案为a。

【2】

句意：我看着他们开心地吃着，笑着。

根据“eat and laugh”可知缺副词修饰动词，结合所给单词，可推测出此处是“happily”，故答案为happily。

【3】

句意：你的是一个特殊的订单。

此处缺主语，用名词性物主代词 “yours”，放句首，需大写，故答案为Yours。

【4】

句意：厨师长正在亲自准备。

分析句子可知是说话，内容时态不受主句影响。根据“now”可知是现在进行时，结合所给单词，且主语是单数，可推测出此处是“is preparing”，故答案为preparing。

【5】

句意：我坐下来耐心地等待着。

根据and可知此处用动词过去式与waited并列，sit变成sat。故答案为sat。

【6】

句意：没过多久，我的餐点就被六个服务员端上了。

根据“my meal”及“serve”可知是被动关系，可推测出此处是一般过去时的被动语态，结合所给单词，用“was served”，故答案为served。

【7】

句意：令我惊讶的是，这家餐馆的老板碰巧是我的一位老朋友。

根据“the+名词+of”可知缺名词，此处用“owner”表示“老板”，故答案为owner。

【8】

句意：他把我的简单食物免费换成了五星级大餐。

此处用介词短语for free表示“免费”，此处用介词“for”，故答案为for。

【9】

句意：其他桌的人都震惊了，问为什么他们没有得到这种服务和用餐。

the people和ask之间是主动关系，逗号后面用动名词asking作状语，故答案为asking。

【10】

句意：有些人走在你前面，谈论他们如何比你更聪明、更睿智、更优秀。

根据“smarter, wiser and better”可知是比较级，可推测出此处是“than”。故答案为than。
