18.If you go on holiday in Italy,Spain or Greece,don't be (61)surprised (surprise) if everything is closed at noon.It's not because the shops are suffering a hard time,but it's because everyone is at lunch.In these Mediterranean countries,the locals take lunch very (62)seriously (serious).In contrast to many other countries,lunch here is not a quick snack (63)consumed (consume) in front of the computer or on the way to (64)a meeting.It is the main event of the day and can last for several hours,(65)covering (cover) many courses.
Its origin is simple.Because of the hot climate in these countries,farmers thousands of years ago (66)introduced (introduce) a rest during the hottest time of the day.They would have a big meal and then take a nap in (67)preparation (prepare) for the remaining work.
Although most employees now work in cooled offices,many families,especially on weekends,still enjoy a luxurious lunch.(68)However,the focus is not only on the food.It is a social gathering (69)where friends share food,and enjoy the company of others.
This approach to life and eating has many benefits.According to health experts,the Mediterranean diet is one of the (70)healthiest (health) in the world.Many people in Italy,Spain and Greece enjoy a long,healthy and happy life.

分析 文章讲述了地中海国家吃午饭的风俗习惯.在意大利,西班牙或希腊,人们对午餐非常重视,其来源很简单,因为这些国家气候炎热,人们需要在一天中最热的时候休息一下.这对人们的健康有好处.

解答 1.surprised;考查分词.句中surprise作系动词的表语,表示人的感受,要用过去分词形式.
2.seriously;考查短语搭配.take sth seriously认真对待某事.     
3.consumed;考查分词.句中consume修饰snack,作后置定语;consume与snack之间构成动宾关系,要用表示被动的过去分词.    
4.a;考查冠词.句中meeting表示泛指一次会议,要用不定冠词来限定.   
5.covering;考查分词.句中有逗号分隔,没有连词,要用非谓语动词;cover与主语it之间构成主谓关系,要用表示主动的现在分词作伴随状语.  
6.introduced;考查时态.文章讲述的是过去发生的动作,要用一般过去时态.    
7.preparation;考查名词.句中prepare作介词in的宾语,要用名词形式;prepare的名词是preparation.     
8.However;考查副词.句意表达的转折,且有逗号分隔,要用表示转折关系的副词来构成.     
9.where;考查连词.句中friends share food,and enjoy the company of others修饰名词短语a social gathering,是一个定语从句;从句结构完整,要用关系副词;先行词 a social gathering表示抽象地点,要用where来引导.  
10.healthiest;考查形容词.句意表达的是最高级的含义,世界上最健康的饮食,要用形容词的最高级形式.

点评 语法填空题是考查学生的语言运用能力.解题时,要在理解文章的基础上,灵活运用语法知识,如词性,时态,名词单复数,连接词,代词,冠词等判断空白处应填写的内容.答完后,还要通读全文,核对所填单词形式是否正确,是否符合语境.
