with the public, noted Sky News. In the UK, every Christmas day, people would turn on their
TVs to listen to the queen’s Christmas speech (演讲). She sent messages about important
things.
Her death has been felt across the globe. In Washington, the US flag was lowered to half
staff to mark the passing of the queen. In a statement (声明), French President Macron said,
“This woman lives in people’s hearts.”

51．The underlined word “supported” means ________.
A．坚持 B．资助 C．统治参考答案：
1．shocked
【详解】句意：很多人对他的死感到震惊，因为他过去很健康。shock“使震惊”，动词；
根据“by his death”可知主语“A lot of people”与动词shock之间是动宾关系，此处用一般过
去时的被动语态，were后接shock的过去分词shocked。故填shocked。
2．recently
【详解】句意：我最近没见过他们。根据句子结构，空格处应填副词，修饰整个句子，
recent的副词形式为recently。故填recently。
3．terrorists
【详解】句意：据报道，一些恐怖分子想杀死这位著名的演员。根据空前的“some”可知，
应该填的是可数名词terrorist“恐怖分子”的复数terrorists，故填terrorists。
4．towers
【详解】句意：这两座塔都很有名。根据“both of”可知后面名词要用复数形式，故填
towers。
5．completely
【详解】句意：别担心。她能帮我们彻底解决这个问题。complete“完全的”，是形容词，
此处需要用副词形式修饰前面动词，故填completely。
6． one of the most important events
【详解】根据句意，空处应用：one of+the+形容词最高级+名词复数；重要的：important，
其最高级形式为most important；事件：event，可数名词，复数形式为events。故填one；
of；the；most；important；events。
7． you were doing
【详解】结合中英文提示可知，此处是缺宾语从句的主谓部分，正在进行的动作要用进行
时态，结合语境此处应该用过去进行时，结构是“was/were+doing”，从句的主语是you，
所以be动词应用were，且宾语从句要用陈述句语序，故填you were doing。
8． so that could hardly
【详解】如此……以至于：so…that；几乎不：hardly；能：can。由语境可知，句子是过去
的动作，can用过去式could“能够”；副词hardly位于情态动词之后，实义动词之前。故填
so；that；could；hardly。
9． was taken down by
【详解】根据句意，主语和动词之间是动宾关系，且动作发生在过去，故应用一般过去时的被动语态，构成形式为wae/were done；摧毁：take down，take的过去分词是taken；主语
“This building”是第三人称单数形式，故助动词应用was；用介词by指出动作的执行者。
故填was；taken；down；by。
10． has meaning to
【详解】have meaning to对……有意义，主语September是第三人称单数形式，谓语用第三
人称单数形式，故填has；meaning；to。

非谓语动词及动词的时态。根据“remember...off the lights when you...the home”可知，此处
