试题分析：这篇短文主要讲述在在二战期间John 一家没有见过也没有使用过洗衣机，这是正好他一个远房的亲戚要去参军就让他帮他家照看家具并让他用他家的洗衣机，John深深地喜欢上了这个东西等他亲戚回来后他都舍不得给人家，拿走后他非常的伤心但他母亲的花让他认识到了失去东西把他当做是别人送给你的礼物你要感激别人这样就不难过了。

1.考查动词。句意：对于他们来说保持衣服干净成为一个问题。动名词或动词不定式作主语，故填keeping／to keep  。

2.考查动词。句意：一个家庭朋友决定去参军。决定去做么某事用decide todo.故填to join  。.

3.考查被动语态。句意：比起放置着被使用更好，it’s+形容词+to do. 根据题意是被动语态用be done故填be used .

4.考查动词不定式。句意：当他来拿走机器的时候。Came to do来的目的，take away意思是拿走，结合语境及句子的结构，故填to take

5.考查动词。句意：你必须记着机器本不属于你的，belong tosb属于某人。本句为否定句故事为一般过去式用助动词did加not.故填didn't belong  .

6.考查动词不定式。句意：对于我们来说能使用这样长时间就是一个很好的礼物。Be able to能，it’s+名词+to do,结合语境故填 to be。

7.考查动词。句意;而不是失去的悲痛。 Instead of doing，意思为代替而不是，结合句意故填 being 

8.考查动词。句意：让我们感谢那是我们能使用它们。Be able todo表示能做某事。时态为过去式主语为复数故填 were 。

9.考查动词。句意：如果我们看待我们已经失去的东西看成是别人给的礼物。结合语境用现在完成时。故填 have lost 

10.考查时态。句意：那么悲伤的记忆将变成感激。Will+do表示将来的动作，change into表示变成。故填will change  。

考点：单词填空。
