Question

【题目】 It's hard for middle school students to prepare a program in three weeks. So, I was really nervous. What made matters worse, there were only nine students taking part in. After a discussion among group members, we decided to perform a song and a dance. The song we chose was showed in the Chinese style and I was the lead singer.

Over the next three weeks, we used every minute we could find to rehearse (彩排). The dancers practised during breaks, and I practised through my phone. I used it to compare my performance with the original, which allowed me to correct my mistakes. (it, best, though, tried, everybody, difficult, was, their).

Finally, the day of the performance came. After making up and dressing up, we became nervous. Before going to stage, I told everyone, "No matter how we perform, we are sure to be the best, since the audience has paid a lot to see us."

As we left the stage, many people spoke to us, praising our performance. A foreign student even came over to us, as he was curious about our ancient-style costumes. He took a photo with us, which became the best record of our hard work.

It was hard work that made us a success. Finally, we stood out among the twenty groups to win the prize.

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了我们要为学校准备一个表演节目，通过不断努力克服重重困难并且最后取得成功的故事。

【1】

根据第一段第一句“It's hard for middle school students to prepare a program in three weeks.”可知，这个节目我们准备的时间只有3个星期，故答案是Three weeks.

【2】

根据第一段“there were only nine students taking part in”可知，只有9名同学参加，所以不是很多，故答案是No, there weren't.

【3】

根据“I practised through my phone”可知作者是通过手机练习的，故答案是Through his phone.

【4】

根据所给词分析，该句是though引导的让步状语从句，try one’s best尽某人最大努力，固定短语，套入所给的词就是tried their best，由their推断，此处主语为everybody；则剩下的就是从句部分的“主系表”结构。故答案是Though it was difficult, everybody tried their best.

【5】

根据“It was hard work that made us a success. Finally, we stood out among the twenty groups to win the prize.”可知，表演很成功，且获了奖，故答案是It was very successful. They won the prize.
