1. 常用定冠词the的情况:
(1)the+序数词,表示“第几”,强调顺序;a/an+序数词,表示“又一,再一”, 不强
调顺序。例如:Bill is the fourth man to enter the room.(比尔是第四个进入房间的人。)He
has tried eleven times,but he wants a twelfth time.(他已经试了 11 次了,但他还想再试一
次。)
(2)the+形容词最高级。例如:He is the tallest of the five.(他是这五个人中最高的。)
(3)the+ 姓氏复数,表示“某人一家”,作主语,后面的谓语动词用复数形式。
例如:The Blacks are at table.(布莱克一家正在吃饭。)
(4)the+ 形容词,表示“一类人”,作主语时,后面的谓语动词用复数形式。例如:The
homeless are lying under the trees.(无家可归的人躺在树下。)
(5)play the +西洋乐器(piano/violin/guitar等)。例如:The girls are playing the piano.(女
孩们正在弹钢琴。)
2. 用不定冠词a/an的情况:抽象名词具体化。抽象名词具体化通常可分为以下两类:

II. 表示“一次”、“一场”、“一段”等“一……”的概念,常与动词连用构成短语,名词
前常有形容词修饰。
1. have a good time(玩得开心,过得愉快);have a wonderful supper(祝你晚餐愉快);have
a good knowledge/understanding of(有很好的知识/理解);have a population of (有……人
口);cover an area of(占地面积,占地多少);reach a height of(达到…的高度)。
2. 与 动 词 have, take, make, give 等 连 用 , 表 示 某 一 次 短 暂 的 动 作 。 如 : have a
swim/rest/look/trip/discussion/smoke/wash/sleep(游泳/休息/看一看/旅行/讨论/抽烟/洗手、脸/睡
觉)
take a walk/bath(散步/洗浴)
give/take a try(尝试)
make an advance/an early start/an apology(提前/早点出发/道歉)
take/have a great interest(非常感兴趣)

3. 接同源宾语的短语如:
live/lead a happy/simple/hard/poor/bitter life(过着幸福/简朴/艰苦/贫穷/苦涩的生活);dream a
strange dream(做了一个奇怪的梦);die a heroic death(英勇就义)

【解析】
1. positively 考查副词。句意:研究检验出一起跳舞是如何对16位奶奶和孙女们产生积极影
响的。空后affected是动词,由副词修饰,所给词positive是形容词,其副词是positively在句
中作状语。故答案为positively。
2. deepen 考查动词。句意:他们发现,这可以鼓励锻炼,还可以加深两代人之间的联系。
空白处在情态动词 can后,需要动词原形,所给词 deep是形容词,其动词是 deepen,意为
“加深,深化”。故答案为deepen。
3. a 考查冠词。句意:这强调了亲密和熟悉的关系作为一种促进新体验的手段的重要性,
这对老年人来说有时似乎是不可能的。句中 means“途径,方法”,是可数名词,前面需加不

重要性,这对老年人来说有时似乎是不可能的。此处先行词是 experiences,指物,后面的非

which引导。故答案为which。5. with 考查介词。句意:孙女们和奶奶们一起跳了三次自由舞蹈。固定搭配:team with意
为“和某人组队”,与前文的 dance together呼应。故答案为with。

7. needed 考查状语从句的省略.句意:她们每周在祖母家跳一次10到15分钟的舞。孙女
们被告知要模仿祖母的动作,鼓励她们的能力,必要时让她们休息。时间、条件或让步状语
从句中如果含有it is/was时,可以省略it is/was;when needed意为“当被需要时”,可以视
为 when it is/was needed的省路。故答案为needed。
8. personal 考查形容词。句意:舞蹈课程的视频、个人日记和采访显示,这些课程给祖母
们带来了积极的感觉和更好的情绪。空后 diaries是名词,由形容词修饰,所给词person是名
词,其形容词是personal,personal diaries“个人日记”。故答案为personal。
9. ageing/aging 考查动名词。句意:与此同时,孙女们也对变老有了新的认识。空白处作介
词on的宾语,应使用动名词,age的动名词是ageing或aging,意为“苍老,变老”。故答案
为aging/ageing。

后bonds是名词,应使用形容词性物主代词their修饰。故答案为their。

Traditionally。6.exploring 考查动名词。句意:游客们也可以花上几个小时去探索中国有趣的风景、气味和

中国茶叶。分析句子结构可知,此处需要一个连接词引导定语从句,连接词指代先行词
Chinese tea shops,且在定语从句中作地点状语,所以应用关系副词where。故答案为where。
9.what 考查主语从句。句意:但也许许多游客和旧金山人最珍视的唐人街是它的美食。分析
句子结构可知,此处需要一个连接词引导主语从句,且连接词在从句中作动词 treasure的宾语,

what。
10.to experience 考查动词不定式。句意:它们让从未到过中国的游客亲身体验中国传统文化。

1. popularity 考查名词。句意:出国旅游越来越受欢迎。more是比较级,修饰名词,动词
gain 后用名词作宾语,所给词 popular 是形容词,其名词是 popularity,意为“流行,受欢
迎”。故答案为popularity。
2. yourself 考查反身代词作宾语。句意:因此,为了给外国人留下好印象,避免给自己带来

8.officially 考查副词。句意:在印度的寺庙等一些圣地,露出脚踝以上的裤子或连衣裙被认
为是不可接受的,因此被官方禁止。空后banned是动词,由副词修饰,所给词official是形容

9.applies 考查一般现在时。句意:这对男女都适用。该句在描述一个客观事实,句子用一般

applies。故答案为applies。
10.fined 考查非谓语动词。句意:所有这些行为都会让你被罚款。句中 will get是谓语动词,
所以动词fine“罚款”是非谓语动词;固定结构:get+宾语+宾语补足语;句中get后面的宾语you和fine之间是被动关系,是过去分词作宾语补足语。故答案为fined。
