参考答案:
一、用括号内单词的适当形式填空
1.to take 句意:虽然这项任务对我来说很难,但我决定接受这个挑战。determine to do sth.表示"决定做某事"。
2.exploration 句意:太空探索是整个人类最伟大的成就之一。此处与Space一起作主语,应用名词形式,space exploration为常见名词搭配,意为"太空探索"。
3.losing 句意:他孤注一掷,冒着失去所有财产的风险乘船通过海峡。risk doing sth.表示"冒险做某事"。
4.scary;scared 句意:事故发生的令人害怕的场景把他吓得要死。第一空修饰scene,应用scary"吓人的";第二空描述的是人的心理活动,应用scared"害怕"。
5.wisdom 句意:父亲是我的英雄,因为我钦佩他的善良、勇敢和智慧。根据空前的and可知,空处与kindness和bravery并列作admire的宾语,故填名词形式。
二、用适当的介词填空
6.on 句意:他使用了一些例子来阐明这个理论,最终他把自己的意思讲明白了。throw light on表示"使……较容易理解"。
7.at 句意:为了提升真实性,魔术师随意从观众中挑选了几个人。这里用短语at random作状语,表示"任意地,随机地"。
8.for 句意:我建议你申请成为会员,会员可以享受8.5折优惠。apply for为固定短语,表示"申请,请求"。
9.In 句意:鉴于时间不多,我们将把讨论限制在两个主要议题上。in view of意为"考虑到,鉴于"。
10.To 句意:令我宽慰的是,经过治疗,我父亲正在逐渐康复。to one’s relief表示"令人宽慰的是"。
