33、arks them great pressure and make them .In my opinion，cheating in exams wrong.We should take active attitude to our studies，and try to get a mark is true as well as good.第一处：reasonreasons。考查名词复数。根据three可知，此处应用名词的复数形式。第二处：Beside改为Besides。考查副词。besides作副词讲时是“除此之外”的意思，而beside为介词，意为“在旁边”。根据the exams前的逗号可

34、知，此处应用副词，故将Beside改为Besides。第三处：difficultydifficult。考查形容词。此处应用形容词difficult作are的表语，表示“困难的”。第四处：删除of。考查连词。“they are too lazy”为一个完整的句子，其前应该是一个连词，故删除介词of。第五处：ourtheir。考查代词。根据上文中的“they are too lazy”可知，此处应该用their。第六处：broughtbring。考查动词时态。全文时态均为一般现在时，本句是对客观事实的陈述且根据and后的make可知，应用一般现在时。第七处：depressingdepressed。

39、 (angry) than a group of strangers _10_ (stand) in front of the bar while they chat and wonder what to order.【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，讲的是英国的酒馆文化。1答案与解析：to enjoy考查非谓语动词。被修饰的名词前有最高级修饰时，非谓语动词充当后置定语常用不定式，故用to enjoy。2答案与解析：into考查介词。固定搭配get into trouble表示“陷入麻烦”，与后面一句中的difficulty相照应，所以填into。3答案与解析：a考查冠词。drink这里表示“一杯

40、酒，一份酒精饮料”，是可数名词，前面加不定冠词，表示泛指，故用a。4答案与解析：waiters考查名词。根据破折号后的“you have to go to the bar to buy drinks”可知，这样的酒馆是没有服务员(waiters)的，waiter是可数名词，no常修饰可数名词的复数形式，故用waiters。5答案与解析：inconvenient考查形容词。sound在这里表示“听起来”，后面加形容词充当表语，说明主语的性质、特点，根据上面一句可知，没有服务员，需要自己去买饮料，这给人的感觉是不方便的(inconvenient)。6答案与解析：service考查名词。介词后面加名词，service表示“服务”，符合语境。7答案与解析：possibly考查副词。此处应用副词possibly作状语。8答案与解析：are考查时态。if引导条件状语从句常用一般现在时代替一般将来时，主语是you，故用are。9答案与解析：angrier考查比较级。根据空后的than并结合语境可知，这里表示比较，故用angry的比较级形式angrier。10答案与解析：standing考查非谓语动词。此处现在分词与被修饰词strangers构成主谓关系，因此用非谓语动词standing。
