【解析】本文講述了一個英國家庭回歸"原始"生活,遠(yuǎn)離電子產(chǎn)品的故事。

【1】考查非謂語動詞。rush to do sth.為固定搭配,表示"匆忙去做某事"。

【2】考查非謂語動詞。此處為get sth. done結(jié)構(gòu),表示"使……被做,完成……"。

【3】考查名詞單復(fù)數(shù)。根據(jù)空后的謂語have可以判斷出此空應(yīng)該填名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式,且此空位于句首,故首字母應(yīng)大寫。

【4】考查形容詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,此處修飾名詞cities,所以應(yīng)該用形容詞。

【5】考查冠詞。lead a... life為固定搭配,表示"過一種……的生活"。

【6】考查名詞性從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,see后是一個賓語從句,空格處為連詞,且從句中缺少like的賓語,因此用what。

【7】考查時態(tài)。根據(jù)語境可知,此處敘述的是過去發(fā)生的事情,描述這家人做了什么,因此應(yīng)該用一般過去時。

【8】考查副詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,此處修飾形容詞hard,因此應(yīng)該用副詞。

【9】考查代詞。此處指Benjamin的外祖母,所以用his。

【10】考查定語從句的關(guān)系詞。此處先行詞為one,表示人,定語從句中缺少主語,因此who和that 都可以。
