Answer 1

【答案】

【1】to stay

【2】Before

【3】spent

【4】so

【5】and

【6】sung

【7】brightly

【8】a

【9】Feeling

【10】which

【解析】

【1】to stay考查动词短语。短语persuade sb to do sth说服某人做某事，后面使用不定式充当宾语补足语。句意：但是没有任何事情可以说服我们留下来。

【2】before考查连词。连词before在…前面。在时间状语前面可以加表示一段时间的名词短语，如two weeks after their marriage他们结婚两周后。句意：圣诞节前两天，我们去了德国南部的一个小镇。

【3】spent考查时态。通读全文可知叙述过去发生的事情，所以使用一般过去时。

【4】so考查固定句式。句式so…that…如此…以至于…；其中so后面要接形容词或副词。句意：在小镇有如此多的活动，以至于他们大大地增加了我们的快乐。

【5】and 考查连词。句意：街上挤满了人，商店里都是很棒的东西。根据句意可知上下文为并列关系，所以使用并列连词and。

【6】sung考查非谓语动词。本句中名词songs与动词sing之间构成被动关系，所以使用过去分词短语在句中充当定语修饰songs。句意：我们去听孩子们在装饰得很漂亮的圣诞树下唱圣诞歌曲。

【7】brightly 考查副词。在英语中通常使用副词充当状语修饰形容词或者副词。本句中使用副词brightly修饰decorated。

【8】a 考查冠词。在英语中不定冠词a/an通常表示泛指，定冠词the表示特指。句意：我们计划第二天到镇上最好的饭店里吃饭。根据句意可知只是说吃顿饭，并没有具体特指。

【9】Feeling 考查非谓语动词。本句考查的是分词做状语的用法，动词feel与句子主语we构成主动关系，所以使用现在分词feeling在句中充当伴随状语。

【10】which 考查定语从句。本题定语从句的先行词是a bag of fruits，关系代词which指代先行词在句中充当动词buy的宾语。
